Malaysia is looking to Türkiye's experience in tourism development as it seeks to deepen cooperation on Muslim-friendly travel, according to the head of the country's Islamic Tourism Center.
The official said Malaysia can draw lessons from how Türkiye has converted its historical heritage into sustainable tourism products, an approach seen as relevant to Malaysia's own ambitions in the sector.
Shared focus on heritage-based tourism
Muslim-friendly travel has grown into a significant segment of the global tourism industry, with countries competing to attract travelers seeking destinations that cater to religious and cultural considerations alongside historical and cultural attractions.
Details on specific joint initiatives or agreements between Malaysia and Türkiye in this area were not included in the available report, though the remarks suggest an interest in expanding bilateral cooperation on tourism development going forward.
