With most people taking off on Monday and Friday, this week was the best time report for domestic tourism. People were seen all over our tourism cities and seaside spots.

Meanwhile Bernama reported: The number of vehicles on the North-South Expressway (PLUS) is expected to increase Thursday as motorists begin to make their way back to the city.

A PLUS officer said there was an increase in the number of vehicles on the expressway but the situation remained under control.
