COVID-19 quarantine a blessing in disguise for Samoa’s hotel industry

SHA President, Tupa'i Saleimoa Vaai said it is a temporary relief but it is a blessing in disguise.

“Right now our industry is in a lot of economic pain and the decision by Government to house our stranded arrivals in hotels, is a helping hand reaching out to us in our time of desperate need,” Tupa’i said.

“We have some income circulating in the industry again not just for hotels but for catering services responsible for feeding the detained travellers.”
