Golf in Malaysia - The Unseen Golf Destination

BANGKOK (June 7, 2010) - Leading Thailand, Vietnam & Cambodia Golf Tour Operator Golfasian is now presenting golf holiday makers with the opportunity to Golf in Malaysia.

"During the recent months we have received an increasing amount of requests for Malaysia Golf Tour Packages. Given Malaysia's beautifully designed golf courses, fascinating hotels & resorts, superb infrastructure, and friendly hospitality, we have decided to add Malaysia Golf as an additional Asian Golf Destination," explained Mark Siegel, Managing Director of Golfasian.

Malaysia boost roughly 40 playable golf courses (out of around 200 golf courses), with the majority located in and around Malaysia's capital Kuala Lumpur, Johor in Peninsular Malaysia, and the islands Penang and Langkawi. "The The Golf Club Datai Bay in Langkawi, the Saujana Golf & Country Club in Kuala Lumpur, and the The Mines Resort & Golf Club in KL are certainly three must play golf courses for those who want the premier Malaysia Golf Holiday experience," Mark Siegel continued.

Besides great golf, Malaysia offers an immense range of attractions and outdoor activities for any age and group size. As Golfasian's Business Development Manager, Pascal Orczech, said "From the well-known 88-storey Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur to Malacca, famous for its history, climbing Mount Kunabalu, experiencing the limestone caves of Sarawak or snorkeling at Perhentian Island - Malaysia has it all and more!"

The 12 Days 'Malaysia Golfing Experience' golf package is the perfect entrance golf tour for those who are unfamiliar with golf in Malaysia and want to experience only the best in a reasonable amount of time.

Due to Malaysia's close proximity to Thailand with only 50 minutes flight time between Langkawi and Phuket or 1 hour and 15 minutes from Kuala Lumpur to Phuket, nothing stands in the way for a multi-country Asia Golf Holiday. "Our 15 Days 'Malaysia and Thailand Golf Tour' is one of our most often requested Malaysia/Thailand Golf Tour Packages," explained Pascal Orczech.

Golfasian has added the best Malaysia Golf Courses and most unique Malaysia Golf Tour Packages to its website at www.golfasian.com.

If you have not yet planned your 2010 golf holiday, try Malaysia Golf - you will take home an Asian Golf Holiday Experience you won't forget anytime soon.
