KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians will still travel within and outside the country despite higher fuel prices but they will travel less than before, according to Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (Matta). Matta president Ngiam Foon said domestic and Asian regional travel would definitely be more popular among the people. He said the travel shift from Europe to Asia had been going on over the last one or two years, which could be seen through the consumer buying pattern. “Destinations like China, South Korea and Taiwan will continue to be popular because of the pricing.

“Malaysians have made travel as part of our lifestyle. On that basis, I’m confident that people will still travel despite the fuel hike except that they will watch their wallet a bit.
He said those who saved retirement money for long haul trips to Europe would continue with their plan for their once-in-a-lifetime travel.
On whether travel to Thailand would be affected by the anti-government street protests, he anticipated that there would be a minor impact but Malaysians particularly businessmen would continue to go to Thailand.
Asked whether prices of travel deals had gone up for the fair because of the fuel surcharge increase, he said: “I don’t think it will be more than 10%.”
The projected sales turnover for the three-day fair is RM80mil while the expected visitor turnout is 70,000 as opposed to RM95mil and 75,000 visitors for the fair in March.
There will be more than 200 exhibitors occupying 880 booths during the fair, which begins today until Sept 9 at Putra World Trade Centre.
