 Malaysia, Singapore to woo Arab tourists

 Date: 18 Sep, 2008

DUBAI: The Singapore Tourism Board, Tourism Malaysia and Singapore Airlines have teamed up to offer an exclusive travel package designed to boost Middle East visitor traffic this season.

The "Twin City" promotion builds on the synergy and popularity of both Malaysia and Singapore among Arab travellers, apart from providing regional tourists a combined package which allows them to enjoy both destinations.

Valid until November, the convenient five-day four-night package includes air fare and hotel accommodation in Singapore and either Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi or Penang, starting at only 2,490 dirham (RM2,341).

"Given the strong tourism links between Singapore and Malaysia, it is a natural fit for us to team up with our valued partners in launching this package," said Jason Ong, Singapore Tourism Board area director for Middle East and Africa in a statement yesterday.

"It will provide Middle East travellers the opportunity to experience these two special countries."
