The Tourism Ministry, in collaboration with the Bukit Bintang-KLCC Tourism Association, is introducing a discount shopping card for foreign tourists in conjunction with the 1Malaysia Mega Sale Carnival 2012 kicking off from tomorrow, June 15 for 7 whole weeks ending on Sept 2.

Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen said they would need to show their passports at the customer service counter of participating shopping centres to obtain the discount cards which are valid for one week.

"If they stay longer than a week, they can renew the card to continue enjoying the discount facilities," she told reporters after launching the shopping carnival here Thursday.

Discounts are being offered at leading shopping malls like Lot 10, Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, Sungei Wang Plaza and others.

Earlier, in her speech, Ng said that airlines should increase the frequency of flights to Malaysia to enable more tourists to take advantage of the shopping carnival. - Bernama
