Welcoming Visit Malaysia Year 2007

January 1st, 2007

Welcome to a brand new beginning for year 2007. In the context of tourism Malaysia, year 2007 marks an important yearlong campaign – Visit Malaysia Year 2007 (VYM 2007).

The VYM 2007 is held in conjunction with the golden jubilee of Malaysia’s independence, celebrating 50 years of nationhood.

In efforts of promoting Malaysia as one of the world’s most preferred traveling destinations, promotions are not only to be done by government sector, but spread of words by local residents is undeniably important as well, especially in this broadband age where information is easily transmitted over the web.

Realizing the importance of Internet marketing strategy, the Visit Malaysia Cyber Campaign (VMCC) initiative is established to promote Malaysia the cyber way. VMCC is a site which allows participants to help promoting tourism Malaysia in the following approaches:

• Send invitation to friends via email, e-card, or SMS.
• Browse multimedia gallery of interesting Malaysia sightings. Registered members can also contribute his/her pictures.
• Participate in forum to help answering and responding to tourism-related threads.
• Link exchange with VMCC

For your information, the Visit Malaysia Year 2007 campaign will be officially launched by the Prime Minister on Saturday January 6th 2007 evening at a colourful gala in Taman Tasik Titiwangsa. The highlights of the event will include a concert featuring renowned Malaysian artistes, an exciting fireworks display and the unveiling of the 60 metres high Ferris Wheel similar to the “London Eye”; dubbed the “Eye on Malaysia” – a first such structure in South East Asia.

In recent months, efforts of Tourism Ministry to push a success jump-start for VMY 2007 are evidently seen everywhere in Malaysia. Personally, of course I hope the VMY 2007 will be a great triumph to attract number of foreign arrivals to the country targeted at 20 million in 2007.

One of my wishes of the year is to make AmazingMelaka.com a recognized tourism Melaka info hub. I’m glad that this site has attracted quite a satisfying level of participations from visitors, in the sense that some of the popular posts are continuously receiving comments and feedbacks. My continuous and long-term efforts to publish up-to-date information at AmazingMelaka.com has gotten positive feedbacks recorded at Alexa, with surging traffic ranking and visits as shown in the following screenshot captured.

Thanks to all my subscribed readers and visitors.

Cheers for a fabulous 2007!
