The Terengganu government has launched a website called Masuk.la that can be used for Covid-19 contact tracing purposes.

State tourism, culture, and information technology committee chairman Ariffin Deraman said state subsidiary Top IT Industries Sdn Bhd had developed the website to help government and business premises as well as places of worship to record details of the people visiting their premises.

He said the public would only have to visit the website at https://masuk.la to register their details and scan the QR code provided without having to download any additional application.

“Apart from ensuring accuracy, the use of Masuk.la will make the process of recording visitors’ data easier.

“Almost all government premises and mosques throughout the state have registered to use the website, ” he said after launching the website here. He said in order to encourage all premises in Terengganu to use the website, there would be lucky draws offering attractive prizes.

“The result of the lucky draw will be announced on July 20 through the Terengganu government social media sites, ” he said.

In another development, Ariffin said the number of domestic tourists visiting Terengganu during the recovery movement control order (MCO) was very encouraging.

He said the occupancy rate at hotels and resorts during the recovery period was at about 80%.

“Nearly 100% of tourism and recreational sites in the state have resumed operations now.

“We are confident that Terengganu’s tourism sector will be able to recover, through various promotional efforts and measures taken, ” he added.
