Airbnb Bullish On SEA Growth Momentum

Airbnb reported their best financial year to date in 2022, achieving their first profitable full year on the back of the resurrection of the travel and hospitality industry post-pandemic. How sustainable is this growth momentum and how much does the Southeast Asian region contribute to Airbnb's fortunes? We discuss the outlook for the short-term rental market in Malaysia and the region with Amanpreet Bajaj, General Manager for Southeast Asia, India, Hong Kong and Taiwan.
