MATTA Connect 2026 Concludes in Ipoh, Malaysia
Malaysia’s premier B2B travel marketplace, MATTA Connect 2026, drew to a close today at the Ipoh Convention Centre, with Malaysia’s Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture, Dato Sri Tiong King Sing, delivering the keynote address at the closing dinner. The second edition of the event brought together buyers, sellers, and tourism stakeholders from across Malaysia and ASEAN.

A key highlight for international buyers was the five-day, four-night pre-tour exploring Perak’s attractions, including the Lenggong Valley UNESCO World Heritage Site and the Royal Belum Rainforest.
