MIRI: The Resort City Miri will see more China tourists in the near future should the proposal for a direct Miri-Shenzhen flight via Malindo Air be given the green-light.
In an interview here yesterday, Assistant Minister for Land and Air Transportation and Safety Datuk Lee Kim Shin said he had proposed the route during a meeting with Malindo Air here on Friday.
He said if the proposal was accepted, then it would boost the tourism industry and the state’s economy.
