Monday 30th of October 2023

Maldives Marketing and Public Relations Corporation (MMPRC) is making waves at the Tourism Expo Japan 2023, an expansive global travel festival organized by the Japan Association of Travel Agents (JATA). Alongside 10 co-exhibitors, MMPRC is showcasing the stunning Sunny Side of Life from October 26th to 29th, 2023 in Osaka.

This event serves as a vibrant hub for countries and tourist destinations worldwide, providing an excellent platform for networking and business opportunities. MMPRC is focusing on reinvigorating Japanese tourism to the Maldives, with a special emphasis on promoting dive holidays. This endeavor aligns perfectly with MMPRC's strategies to keep Japanese travel agents updated with the latest travel trends.

The stand activities are designed to engage and educate visitors about the Maldives. These include meetings with travel trade representatives, surveys, and the distribution of promotional materials. Additionally, guests can partake in a social media contest and spinning wheel activities, adding an element of fun to the informative experience.

To further enrich the cultural exchange, authentic Maldivian props like libaas, feyli, and fahtaru are available for visitors to explore. An LED screen at the stand showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Maldives, providing a virtual journey through its picturesque landscapes.

Japan holds a special place as the 9th top source market for the Maldives. As of September 2023, over 14,218 travelers from Japan have experienced the allure of the Maldives. The participation of MMPRC and its co-exhibitors in the Tourism Expo Japan 2023 seeks to reinforce this connection and entice even more Japanese visitors to discover the Sunny Side of Life in the Maldives.
