Malaysia & Thailand See Increase in Cross-Border Travel – Malaysian Tourism Continues to Shine

As reported on the Travel And Tour World website on 15th September 2024, the Malaysia-Thailand border crossing has seen a surge in visitors by citizens of both countries. While many Malaysians were in Thailand on short holidays during festive breaks, Thais also headed to Malaysia to enjoy the many allures it has to offer, thereby boosting local tourism.

Malaysia has, in fact, seen a significant increase in arrivals this year, and as reported on The Edge Malaysia news website on 14th October 2024, the country had welcomed 16.45 million tourists by August 2024. This was a remarkable 29.5% more than the number recorded during the same period in 2023. These travellers are continuing to enjoy what this destination has to offer along with diverse accommodation options including the chance to stay at an over water Sepang villa. Such getaways by the sea are on offer at properties like Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort which can expect more tourists during this busy holiday season.
