SME Directory of Malaysia, Malaysia Business Portal

Malaysia is fast emerging as one of the top destinations in the world for Meetings, Conventions, Incentives and Exhibitions (MICE). The country ranks 23rd in the world, based on the International Congress and Convention Association’s statistical preview of association meetings held in 2006, up 10 spots from the previous year.

The seven reasons to choose Malaysia as a MICE Destination are:

    *  Cost Competitive - The destination is very cost effective. To cite an example, one could procure a suite at the price of a standard room in other parts of the world.
    * Connections - Malaysian Airlines, the national carrier, operates four flights a week from Mumbai and Delhi and has convenient connections from other hubs Chennai, Hyderabad and Bangalore as well.
    * Convenience - The city is easy to get around with state-of-the-art commuting systems.
    * Comfort - Travellers would find it easy to get around Malaysia as English is widely spoken throughout the country.
    * Capabilities - With world-class convention centres, hotels and infrastructure, Malaysia is equipped to service any event.
    * Character - The country has an incredible variety, in all 14 states there is something different and appealing. Malaysia is a melange of the classic and the contemporary.
