00:00 The total booth taken is 1,367.
00:13 The previous Mata Fair booth is 1,416.
00:16 The reason for the decrease of the number of booths, we are moving to allow the carrier
00:22 fair to participate.
00:25 The Malaysian Aviation Group, thank you.
00:28 Number of space taken, 156 square meters, located at Foyer Level 1, buyers contest,
00:35 37 return tickets, including business class to various destinations.
00:41 Thank you very much, MAG.
00:44 For RHB Bank, number of booths taken, 12 booths, Level 3, main booth, offer attractive card
00:51 promotions, attractive travel-related deals, and discounts and sign-up offers.
00:55 Tourism Selangor, the number of booths taken is 34 booths, located at Level 1.
01:01 We have a Selangor zone dedicated, they are our preferred domestic destination.
01:10 For Saudi Tourism, number of booths taken, 24 booths, Level 3, as an international destination.
01:17 So our main sponsors are MAG, RHB, Saudi, and domestic is Tourism Selangor.
01:25 A series of traffic management strategies, including new traffic flow direction, we have
01:30 already gone through the survey, we have a subcommittee specifically to look into transportation
01:35 issues, comprehensive traffic monitoring, priority for free shuttle bus, cultural performance,
01:42 and daily talk show, located at Level 3.
01:46 Free shuttle, visitors are encouraged to advise to use free shuttle facilities provided at
01:51 Mitac available at Sunway Putra KL Central from 8am to 10pm.
01:58 And I believe there's also those who take shuttle, there's a lucky draw, there's a prize.
02:05 So you take the shuttle bus, you may even win a prize.
02:08 This is to encourage lucky draws.
02:12 The visitors, we are expecting 200,000 visitors with a sales turnover of 350 million RM, domestic
02:19 70 million RM.
02:22 Our partners, Malaysian Aviation Group, is also contributing some, actually quite a lot
02:27 of very, very exciting prizes to the buyers' contest.
02:31 And so up for grabs among them are basically business class return tickets to a number
02:36 of key destinations to London, Sydney, and Haneda, among many, many others.
02:43 So this means for consumers who buy packages at the fair, I think a minimum of 100 RM,
02:52 they will each stand, every 100 RM they spend, they stand a chance to win many of these wonderful
02:59 prizes.
03:00 And as Datuk Tan has already said, for those of you who are taking the shuttle service
03:05 from KL Central or from Sunway Putra, you will be eligible for a lucky draw to be announced
03:13 every hour.
03:16 Winners will be notified by phone or by WhatsApp.
03:19 They can collect their vouchers at the fair itself and spend it immediately at our domestic
03:25 halls.
03:26 The two major key changes for this Mata Fair is the introduction of domestic zones.
03:32 Now this is designed so that consumers will be easily able to identify the different states
03:37 and destinations that they want to go to.
03:40 It's also going to help our local tourism stakeholders to upgrade what they normally
03:46 do to grow, to upscale in order to better promote their products and services and to
03:52 attract new market interest.
03:56 And of course, last but not least, we are going to have a one-day career fair on Saturday
04:00 in partnership with Taylor's University.
04:03 We're also going to have a lot of industry stakeholders who are actually involved in
04:09 the education sector of tourism to come in.
04:12 There will be some very, very interesting talks for people who want to consider an advancement
04:18 in their career in tourism and also for school leavers or also for college students or those
04:23 in university who want to know a bit more about the vast potential that tourism offers
04:31 to them in terms of a career option.
04:34 Thank you.
04:36 Thank you.
04:37 Thank you.
04:38 Thank you.
04:39 Thank you.
04:40 Thank you.
