NUSA DUA, Bali, Oct 1 Asia Pulse - Malaysian Tourism Promotion Director General Dato Mirza Mohammad Taiyab hoped the number of Indonesian tourists coming to Malaysia in 2007 would reach two million.

"We hope that the number of Indonesian tourists visiting our country would meet our expectations," Dato Mirza Mohammad Thiyab told the press on the sidelines of the ongoing PATA Travel Mart in Nusa Dua, Bali, on Friday.

He said Malaysia on the occasion of Visit Malaysia Year and its 50th anniversary is offering special and affordable tourist packages.

According to data, from January through July 2007, more than one million people had come to Malaysia to spend their holidays, Dato Mirza flanked by Malaysian Senior Tourism Director Abdul Halim Saruji, said.

Most of the Indonesian tourists visiting Malaysia came from Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Java.

Dato Mirza also hoped Malaysia's relations with Indonesia both in the economic, socio-cultural and political sectors need also to be developed through cooperation in the tourism sector.

He said the tourism industry in his country is the biggest contributor to the state's revenue.
