https://lnkd.in/gjKpwpNc 🔍 Shift in Perspective: 👉 Previous Comments: "Having helmed the Tourism DG portfolio for 30 years and after the opening of borders and now full swing in travels, what planning and execution was being done for 2024? Where’s the Malaysia, Truly Asia campaign in 2023, 2024? Why more Chinese tourists visit Thailand over Malaysia? Where was the plan to address poor travels to Langkawi after Kedah CM blew it up? It will be interesting to watch Keluar Sekejap on this issue.. the demotion is justified. Also, look at the way SG pulled the Taylor Swift tour, the discussions were done 2 years ago! Look at the economic benefits, they anticipated and acted on it .. we got Coldplay, Ed Sheeran and others. Question is was there any input from the Tourism board or were they private entertainment companies initiative?" 🔄 Shift in Perspective: "Look into the personal performance of the DG instead of the numbers of tourists coming in which may not be attributed by DG. The high numbers may be due to other personnels involved in tourism." 🤔 Understanding the Shift: The shift in perspective from focusing solely on individual performance to considering broader contextual factors reflects a fascinating psychological phenomenon known as attribution bias. While it's important to hold leaders accountable, it's equally crucial to recognize the collective efforts of the entire tourism sector. 💡 Positive Development: This shift demonstrates a capacity for critical thinking and a willingness to consider alternative explanations beyond initial impressions. By fostering a balanced approach, we can drive constructive dialogue and positive change within the tourism industry. 🌐 Join the Conversation: What are your thoughts on this shift in perspective? How can we strike a balance between holding leaders accountable and recognizing broader contextual factors?
