Durian Orchard owner, you can call Tourism Malaysia Now

asmaliana — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 11:30:59 +0000

Can’t taste it? You sing it..

Why? Because our King of fruit will be featured in Malaysia Tourism Promotion Campaign. Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen said that Tourism Malaysia will introduce “durian trail” package. Malaysian sure like to eat Durian and now the world are learning to feel the taste.

“We have suggested that the Agriculture Department discuss with durian orchard owners and to contact the Tourism Ministry when the durian season arrives so that we can devise a package for tourists,” she told reporters after opening a durian-eating competition here Friday.”

Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen said. Read the full news here.

It’s a seasonal fruit and that make Durian unique to promote. China are among importers of our durians. At Singapore, durian is expensive and the durians are imported from Malaysia.

Our close rival in durian Business is Thailand that famous for its ‘Siam Durian’ which is available through out the year. Although its more thicker than Malaysian Original Durian, but no match for our strong odor, golden color and acidic durian. You body temperature will arise quickly when eating the original Kampung Durian.

Okay…don’t forget to drink more water!.

We can see partial Lunar Eclipse today

asmaliana — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 01:55:49 +0000

No matter where you are in Malaysia, look at south east and if the sky are clear you can see the moon eaten by the dark side….partially. Remind me of the New Movie Twilight Saga: Eclipse. National Space Agency (ANGKASA) said that we can view the moon activity from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m.

Even if we can see it through our naked eye, the outer space will be more clear if we can use a telescope. So National Space Agency (ANGKASA) will be organizing a Partial Lunar Eclipse Observation Program at the National Planetarium. Public are all invited.

The first 300 visitors attending the program at National Planetarium will be given a tin of Eclipse Mints. You wont turn into a wolf after consuming the mints but just getting fresh breath.

Melaka State Space Observatory Complex at Al-Khawarizmi Tanjung Bidara also will be doing the same thing.

Watch out for the sky!

PM said : special niche market to develop tourism

asmaliana — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 11:46:03 +0000

Prime Minister at Philea last Saturday…

Prime Minister was here last weekend to open the Philea Resort & Spa and also closing ceremony for Sukan Malaysia. XIII. For the tourism site PM also stating few points about how it gonna be in 10th Malaysia Plan.
In 10th Malaysia Plan the government had approved allocation for a further extension of the ‘Melaka River Cruise”.

PM Said that Malaysia was among only three nations in the world to record an increase in tourist arrivals for last year. I can’t get the exact data but I do got this data for 2010 from Internet:

“Similarly, other Asian countries maintained the upward trend of previous months with Japan (6.8%), Malaysia (38.4%), South Korea (68.1%).”

Source here.

In 2009 Malaysia was the The top international destinations:

Rank	Country	International tourist arrivals
1	France	74.2 million
2	United States	54.9 million
3	Spain	52.2 million
4	China	50.9 million
5	Italy	43.2 million
6	United Kingdom	28.0 million
7	Turkey	25.5 million
8	Germany	24.2 million
9	Malaysia	23.6 million
10	Mexico	21.5 million

Prime Minister also said that :

The government planned to attract ‘quality tourists’ who would stay eight nights and spend between RM4,000 and RM5,000 on the average per trip.

Currently, the tourists generally stayed an average of 6.7 nights and spent RM2,300 per trip.

More of the news here.

Now everyone seem to already think about niche. Niche..niche..niche. Luckily Melaka already had a niche given by the history. But the niche must be preserved accordingly. Visitors come to Melaka usually to experience the 600 years of the past. From the Melaka Sultanate that rule the entire archipelago to the Portuguese Invasion, Dutch and British.

This few years, Melaka want to tap into another aspect of tourism that is theme park for family. Starting from A Famosa Waterworld, the River Cruise, rotating Gyro tower and now the Wonderland theme park

Tourism products owners also must think about niche to make advantage of the good Malaysia tourism atmosphere. Some hotel in Melaka like Philea Resort already exploring new niche in hotel development – using log.

So others…lets discuss about your niche!
