Abstract
The tourism activity has slowed down since the pandemic Covid-19 and indirectly affected the whole world including Malaysia. Malaysia is slowly taking steps to revitalize the economy from tourism activities. At the same time, the local authorities are lacking information in gather tourism database and have problems with storing and managing spatial data in developing a Geographic Information System (GIS) database. Indirectly, most tourist attractions are lack of promotion by the local authorities in their respective areas. The main objective of this paper is to create ER Model for Tourism Database Management System for tourism destinations attractions in Malaysia. Therefore, the E-R technique is used as a graphical method of representing objects (or entities) of a database. The ER Model is hoped to create a user-friendly database that standardizes all tourism information for both parties in one database where it can facilitate the ministry and local authorities in making decisions, identifying problems and updating data related to the tourism sector.
