1. your dream cruise vacation awaits

MATTA Fair Perak is just one of the travel fairs organised by the Malaysian Association of Tour & Travel Agents (MATTA) simultaneously in selected cities across the country. Over at the other side of town, also held over these three days is a similar nationwide exposition, known as MITM Travel Fair organised by the Malaysian Chinese Tourism Association.

While I had no plans to search for attractive vacation packages, I was glad to have visited this edition of MATTA Fair Perak as I was able to buy cheap travel insurance from City Life underwritten by QBE Insurance, for my upcoming trip to China at only RM5 per day.

5. promoting attractions in Perak

A new exhibitor that I spotted is Easturia Vacation Club, who came all the way from Kuching, Sarawak. The staff have just completed their presentation and ran out of brochures when I arrived but checking their website, from what I understood, this is a vacation where we pay a lump sum of $$ annually and then travel at a discounted rate during the year our membership is valid.
