The Malaysia International Visitors
Programme was instituted in 2002. Its objectives are:
To promote international peace,
understanding and cooperation.
To raise awareness and understanding of Malaysia and its
policies among international media, intellectuals,
business/economics leaders and others in the fields of
culture, administration and politics.
To promote Malaysia as an attractive venue for investment
and travel, and as a partner for trade.
The programmes involve meetings and
discussions with prominent individuals from relevant private and
public sector agencies in Malaysia, as well as visits to the
places of interest. They also include some recreation time for
the visitors.
