Thursday, March 31, 2022

Resorts World Genting (RWG), one of the biggest names in Malaysia’s leisure and hospitality industry will be the Official Resort Sponsor for the upcoming National MATTA Fair which will be held on 9 and 10 April 2022 at the World Trade Centre.


Visitors will be able to choose from a variety of attractive offerings and promotions by RWG including great hotel deals, and the recently-opened Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park. RWG will be part of the Tourism Pahang Pavilion.

RWG was announced as the Resort Sponsor today in a press conference held at the MATTA Headquarters.

Representing RWG at the event was Spencer Lee, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing, Genting Malaysia Berhad (GENM) while MATTA was represented by Mohammad Faeez bin Mohamad Fadhlillah, Honorary Secretary General, MATTA.

Our association this time around at the MATTA Fair is truly a momentous milestone, not only for Resorts World Genting, but also for Malaysia’s tourism industry.

It will catalyse a significant boost in the local tourism industry, which was severely impacted in the last two years due to the pandemic. Through this initiative, they would also like to show our support for local agents who will be representing and selling Resorts World offerings.

They expect to see an increase in sales as a direct result of our attractive deals, discounts and promotions, both online and on-site at the MATTA Fair, said Spencer Lee.



He added that they would like to thank MATTA for this industry-led collaboration. They are confident that this will further strengthen our existing relationship, while presenting mutually-beneficial prospects and opportunity for further engagements in the future.

Lee also expressed his gratitude and appreciation to the Malaysian government and Ministry of Health for all their efforts in dealing with the pandemic, including making Malaysia one of the highest vaccinated countries in the world.


He also pointed out Resorts World Genting’s commitment to work together with MATTA and industry players to champion the nation’s recovery process.


They are ready for the reopening of our borders on 1 April. They are also excited to showcase Genting SkyWorlds – the region’s leading theme park – to the world!

They have made the necessary arrangements to welcome visitors from across the region, while working closely with MATTA, Tourism Malaysia and key industry players.

They have more than 8,000 employees at the ready, primed and excited to host all their guests at Resorts World Genting, said Lee.


Echoing Lee’s sentiments, Mohammad Faeez said, with Malaysia having one of the highest vaccination rates in the world and the reopening of our international borders, local tourism industry players are already preparing to welcome both domestic and international tourists.

They are optimistic over the immediate prospects as the industry initiates marketing and promotional activities, which will further spur the nation’s economy while recalling tourism-related workers affected by the pandemic. The multiplier effect of tourist spending will also boost local economies and the many sub-sectors in the tourism industry.



The promotional deals offered at the MATTA Fair will include Genting SkyWorlds tickets, Genting SkyWorlds and Awana SkyWay cable car combo packages, as well as Genting SkyWorlds and Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park combo packages with an additional 5% discount, on top of the 20% soft opening promotion.

Skytropolis Indoor Theme Park 1-Day Unlimited Ride Pass will also be available from only RM58.


The newly rebranded Genting SkyWorlds Hotel (formerly known as Theme Park Hotel), opening on 1 April 2022 will be offering a special rate of only RM228 for a Quad Room which can easily accommodate a family of four.

Apart from that, there will be special rates for Crockfords Hotel from only RM898 per night – the only hotel in Malaysia to receive the prestigious 5-star rating by the Forbes Travel Guide for three consecutive years (2019 – 2021).

In addition, RWG will be offering special discounts for stays at First World Hotel from only RM68 per night and Resorts World Awana from only RM278 per night. There will also be amazing deals for accommodation in other GENM properties around the country, including Resorts World Langkawi and Resorts World Kijal.
