It's about time MTPNJ

It's about time MTPNJ makes a plan to "really promote" Johor as a tourist destination and not a by pass state. Place of interest and place to makan2 need to be indentified by MTPNJ, proper marketing need to be done, hire qualified people to work with MTPNJ. If they don't have expertise on that, hire a consultant. MTPNJ should learn from Melaka and Singapore.

Johor to get tourists to stay the night

JOHOR BARU: Johor will focus on creating more activities to get tourists to stay longer.
Johor Tourism, Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Hoo Seong Chang said there should be more activities to get tourists to spend the evening and stay the night, and these would include cultural stage shows and markets selling local items.
“There are travellers who only come for a few hours for shopping or food. With the evening programmes, they may decide to stay for the night,” he told reporters after launching the Malaysia International Travel Mart here on Friday.
He said Danga Bay was already planning a night cruise where visitors could have dinner onboard.
“We can also have such night attractions in other places like Desaru and Tanjung Piai,” he said.

Kalau ke Johor Bahru melalui lebuhraya PLUS, jangan lupa singah di RR Pagoh (Arah ke selatan) kerana di situ ada nasi ambeng yang boleh tahan sedap. Kalau dah makan rasa macam nak makan lagi dan lagi.
