Singaporeans, get ready to rediscover the magic of Malaysia! Tourism Malaysia has launched a captivating new program designed to entice you across the causeway with a focus on twin-city vacations in Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur.
This exciting initiative kicked off with a B2B (business-to-business) workshop at the Zenith Hotel in Putrajaya. The workshop brought together 14 travel agents from Singapore and over 40 local tourism stakeholders, fostering collaboration and the creation of irresistible travel packages specifically tailored for Singaporean visitors.
“We are optimistic about the productive discussions and collaborations that will unfold during this session,” said Mr. Lee Thai Hung, Deputy Director General (Promotion) of Tourism Malaysia. “Our goal is to forge strong business ties and develop unique travel packages that will entice Singaporean visitors to explore the wonders of Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur.”
The program promises an immersive experience beyond workshops and meetings. Participants will embark on a series of exciting educational activities in both cities. Imagine cruising the scenic Putrajaya Lake, exploring the observation deck of the awe-inspiring Merdeka 118 tower, or venturing into the heart of Broga Orchard Hills. The program also delves into Malaysia’s renowned medical tourism sector with a visit to the Damansara Specialist Hospital 2, organized by the Malaysia Healthcare Travel Council (MHTC).
This program highlights Malaysia’s unwavering commitment to attracting Singaporean tourists. With 8.3 million Singaporean visitors gracing Malaysian shores in 2023 alone, the relationship between these neighboring countries is stronger than ever. As Malaysia sets ambitious goals to attract 27.3 million tourists and generate RM102.7 billion in revenue by 2024, the upcoming Visit Malaysia 2026 campaign promises to further solidify Malaysia’s position as a top tourist destination.
