Halaal Tourism Attracts Muslims=========================

Malaysia attracted over 170,000 visitors from the Gulf countries in 2013, and has been rated the world’s top Muslim-friendly holiday destination in a survey released last year. According to figures, Malaysia received 102,365 tourists from Saudi Arabia in 2012. 

The total number of tourists from the UAE was 18,233 during this period. This Asian country with a 60% Muslim population mostly attracts Muslim tourists worldwide and has been a frontrunner with regards to anything halaal. 

Geographically, Malaysia is almost as diverse as its culture: it has eleven states and two federal territories. Malaysia’s policy for the tourism sector is to ensure a comfortable environment to all Muslim family tourists in line with its Islamic lifestyle. Kuala Lumpur is the biggest city of Malaysia and one of the top ten most visited cities.
