Anyone with an interest in agrotourism should not miss MIATE 2015, the Malaysia International Agrotourism Exhibition to be held between 27 to 29 November 2015.
It aims to boost agrotourism as an economic activity and to promote agrotourism destinations. Fun activities such as vehicle parades, food stalls, traditional Malaysian games, sports activities, mini petting zoo, children’s events, fireworks and more are scheduled to attract foreign and local visitors as part of Tourism Malaysia’s Year of Festivals. The theme of this year’s event is Malaysian Tropical Fruits.
In many ways this event appears similar to MAHA (Malaysia Agriculture, Horticulture & Agrotourism) which is held biennially at the same venue. However MIATE is a smaller event and focussed purely on agrotourism. It is primarily aimed at industry players and trade exhibitors but the general public are welcome to attend and may be interested particularly in visiting the booths of destination operators such as farms, homestays, spa and health resorts and seeing what packages are on offer. I shall certainly be going along.
