“Golf tourism poses a vast potential in drawing significant
number of tourists into the State, as well as contributes prominently towards
the State’s economy.Golf has emerged as one of the
fastest-growing tourism trends, and Tourism Selangor has done an
outstanding job with its various initiatives, including hosting the
3rd Tourism Selangor Golf Tournament 2021”, Y.B. Tuan Hee Loy Sian added.
The
State of Selangor through Tourism Selangor is committed to explore the
opportunities and further leverage in the sports and golf tourism, as it poses
as a key role in fuelling the State’s economy through domestic tourism. This tourism segmentation does not only
benefit golf operators -- retail, accommodation, hospitality and transportation
providers will also attain a positive impact from the travels.The buzz created from golf events will draw
the tourists’ attention onto nearby tourism attractions such as the ones near
to the Tournament’s venue in Rawang; Taman
Eko Rimba Kanching and Taman Eko
Rimba Komanwel.
Golf
tourism acts a catalyst to creating an influx of local sports tourists into the
State. With 29 Golf Clubs across the State -- the highest
number in the country; Selangor truly is the leading and premier Golf Hub
in Malaysia. Hence,it is not an intricate effort to further penetrate the
golf tourism segmentation. This is also in line with Tourism Selangor’s Domestic Tourism Promotional
Campaign, ‘Pusing Selangor Dulu’,
which is growing in popularity among domestic travellers, with the #PusingSelangorDulu hashtag gaining over 22
million reachon social media since the Campaign’s official launch in
December 2020.
