Visitors will have a chance to purchase VMY promotional packages at a discount rate. There are 4-day-3-night packages offerings with discount to Malaysia departing from Hanoi at shocking price of USD399 and from Ho Chi Minh City at USD328.

Furthermore, this is a great occasion where you can get a glimpse of Malaysian culture such as Malaysian traditional cultural dances, the art of teh tarik – the charming performer with his fascinating tea-pulling style and dance moves or hand-drawn Henna by famous artists. Especially, participants will have the chance to take free souvenir photos with beautiful Malaysian girls and guys wearing exotic traditional costumes.

The year of 2013 also marks the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and Malaysia. The visit expresses not only the diplomatic ties but also the bilateral cooperation between the two nations in the fields of economics, culture, and tourism./.
