A Message From Panorama Destination Malaysia
Happy New Year from all of us in Kuala Lumpur!
Thank you to all our partners for your support during the past year. We look forward to making 2025 another successful and fulfilling year for us all, and exploring fresh new opportunities together.
In 2025, we plan to meet more of our clients in person, providing them with premium care and a personal touch through face-to-face interactions. Together with the nationwide preparations for Visit Malaysia 2026, there are plenty of exciting new promotions and offerings on the horizon.
Some of these changes are already here. With the extension of free visa services for Indian and Chinese passport holders, we saw a significant increase in arrivals during December 2024, and expect to see more of the same in the New Year.
The New Year celebrations may already be behind us, but we can also look forward to the Lunar New Year (or Chinese New Year), which is happening at the end of January. Malaysia is a wonderful place to spend the holiday, and we expect to welcome may clients from China and from all over the world.
Together with Indonesia, Thailand and our PHM, we will be participating in the ASEAN Tourism Fair (ATF 2025), which will be held from 15-20 January in Johor, Malaysia. The show will be a great opportunity for us to promote a few new packages and showcase some incredible travel destinations, including Sarawak and the Rajang-Belawai-Paloh Delta, which is the ideal spot for eco-tourism and travel experiences with an emphasis on sustainability.
2025 is already off to a busy start in Malaysia, and we currently have our annual student groups from the Middle East along with European clients on cruise holidays and other European clients travelling around Malaysia.
From all of us at Panorama Destination Malaysia, we wish you a happy and prosperous New Year, and look forward to working with you in the months ahead.
