Tourism Malaysia Travel Mart Media Conference 2019
  1. As you all are aware, Tourism Malaysia will be organising the Tourism Malaysia Travel Mart 2019 today in conjunction with the MATTA Fair which will be held from 6 to 8 Sept 2019 at PWTC.
  2. The Tourism Malaysia Travel Mart 2019 program, which is based on the Business to Business (B2B) concept, will bring together product and hotel entrepreneurs from each state with potential buyers who are tourism entrepreneurs who are either involved or not involved in the MATTA Fair exhibition.
