Malaysia is among the top trending tourist destinations in Asia

Malaysia received 20.14 million international arrivals in 2023.

It has been two years since Malaysia reopened to international tourists. The tourism sector, which took a hit when the borders were closed from 2020 to 2022 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, has yet to fully recover.

However, the tourism industry continues to show positive signs of recovery as tourist arrivals doubled over the past year.
