MCO 2.0 May Be Knockout Blow for Local Travel Agencies

Local travel agencies have been severely impacted by the pandemic, and these new lockdown measures could be the final sign for many of them to shut down for good. But there’s also hope in technology, as VR seems to be gaining popularity with tourists itching for some form of travel.
