Nearby is the day when a new permanent heading "the world procession of tourist tax" will appear on the "Subtleties": following several cities in Europe and Africa, the authorities of Malaysian Penang intended to pay an additional fee from travelers.

As the local government specified, the value of the future rate is unlikely to force travelers to refuse to tour the island en masse. For every night spent in a hotel of 1-3 stars, guests will have to pay an additional 2 ringgit (about 22 rubles). Accommodation in more respectable establishments will add 5 ringgit (about 53 rubles) per day to the client's total account. As in all other similar cases, the collected money will be spent on the development of tourism infrastructure and landscaping

It is assumed that the tourist tax in Penang will be introduced as early as March 2014.
