These prominent Singapore travel agents will offer an extensive range of exclusive packages, providing visitors with direct access to tailored holiday expertise.
As a major highlight of the opening day, Tourism Malaysia officially launched a strategic collaboration with BusOnlineTicket.com, a premier booking portal for bus, train, and ferry services. Officiated at the GO Malaysia Fair, this partnership is specifically designed to streamline the high-volume overland traffic between Singapore and Malaysia.
On this partnership, Mr Mohd Amirul Rizal Abdul Rahim, Director General of Tourism Malaysia said, "By strategically collaborating with service provider platforms like BusOnlineTicket.com, we are streamlining cross-border logistics to offer a frictionless travel experience. Given the currently challenging global tourism landscape, we anticipate that this collaboration will encourage more travellers to choose Malaysia as a safe, accessible, and preferred destination, providing a significant boost to our tourism arrivals, especially for Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026).”
Reflecting on this initiative, Mr. Bong Yong Chuen, Director of BusOnlineTicket Pte Ltd, stated: "We are thrilled to partner with Tourism Malaysia in this strategic initiative to support the Visit Malaysia 2026 (VM2026) campaign. By integrating our comprehensive booking platform with Tourism Malaysia's promotional efforts, we aim to provide a seamless and convenient travel experience between Singapore and Malaysia.
