This was stated by Malaysian Consul General Khairul Nazran Abdur Rahman during his visit to Tourism Malaysia stall at Pakistan Travel Mart (PTM) 2018 here. He said that he hoped to increase the number of Pakistani tourists to Malaysia further.
He said that the Tourism Malaysia had yet another year of successful participation in PTM 2018 and represented 23 Malaysian organisations as well as Malaysian cultural performers.
Moreover, he said that the objective of the participation in this travel mart were to increase the awareness and interest of tourists and travel agents from Pakistan of the exciting potential that Malaysia presented as the preferred travel destination in Asia, to renew Malaysia's commitment and support for the Pakistani travel industry in their efforts to promote Malaysia, to keep the Pakistani counterparts abreast of recent tourism developments in Malaysia and to establish a wider network of contacts in the Pakistani tourism industry.
During PTM 2018, Tourism Melaka also launched the "Visit Melaka Year 2019" to highlight the latest attractions that they have to offer to the Pakistani tourists. The campaign is set to make historical Melaka top-of-the-mind tourist destinations, encouraging tourists from Pakistan to visit Melaka.
In addition, new attractions are also being launched to provide tourists more choices of attractions such as the world-class immersive theatre performance on a 360 degree rotating audience platform.
