Global celebrities, business tycoons and politicians began arriving in India’s financial capital on Friday to attend the wedding of the youngest son of Mukesh Ambani, Asia’s richest man, highlighting the billionaire's staggering wealth and rising clout.

PETALING JAYA: From January to April 2023, Malaysia welcomed 92,182 tourists from Japan , marking a nearly 50% increase compared to the same period last year, according to the Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry.

To boost these numbers, Tiong and Tourism Malaysia conducted a working visit to Osaka and Tokyo from June 21 to 27, launching the 2024 Japan Tourism Marketing Mission. The delegation met with eight major local tourism companies to fortify Malaysia’s presence in the Japanese market.
