Temporary permits for Langkawi's illegal car-for-hire operators

LANGKAWI, Sept 7 (Bernama) -- The Tourism Ministry has approved 1,500 temporary permits for operators who are running car hire operations without a licence on the island. Kedah Malaysian Association of Tour and Travel Agents (Matta) chairman Pishol Ishak said the permits were only for operators who are Matta members.

"The temporary permits are to cater to the transportation needs of visitors for the coming Aidilfitri, Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace Exhibition (Lima '09) and the year-end holiday," he said.He hoped that the permit could provide a temporary respite for these operators whose cars were seized by the Road Transport Department for operating without a licence.

LANGKAWI, Sept 7 (Bernama) -- The Langkawi Development Authority (LADA) has intensified its tourism promotion by picking London as its new target after the success of its missions to India, the former Soviet republics, Dubai, Indonesia and Singapore.Lada general manager Azman Umar said the agency would participate in the Malaysian Tourism Promotion Board's mission to London from Nov 9 to 12.

He said statistics from the Lada tourism unit showed that there were 100,831 tourists from the United Kingdom visiting Langkawi last year while the figure for the first seven months of this year was 53,123 tourists."London was chosen based on the encouraging market there besides Singapore, Thailand and Australia," Azman told Bernama, here on Monday. He said that a second promotion to Singapore would be held from Nov 13 to 15.

The first mission to that republic was made in May. Lada would take part in the International Travel Expo in Vietnam from Oct 1 to 3 to woo tourists from the Asean member nations to visit Langkawi, he said. On the promotions to the former Soviet Union republics namely Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania in June, he said they had received good response.

Following the promotions, 10 representatives from travel agencies and the media from the countries concerned would visit Langkawi for five days from Sept 9 to have a better knowledge of the resort island.--

  4. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your
    blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got
    to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content

    so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
    Maybe you could space it out better?

  5. Together with everything which

    appears to be developing throughout this particular area, a significant percentage
    of

    viewpoints are rather exciting. Nevertheless, I beg your pardon,
    because I can not subscribe to your

    whole strategy, all be it exciting none the

    less. It would seem to me that your remarks

    are generally not entirely justified and in

    reality you are your self not even fully confident of your point.
    In any

    event I did take pleasure in reading it.
