KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA / / May 31, 2025 / Halal Holidays today announced the official launch of its dedicated Muslim-friendly travel platform, HalalHolidays.asia, addressing the rapidly expanding halal tourism sector projected to reach US$225 billion by 2028. The new platform offers fully halal-certified travel packages, accommodations, and seamless booking experiences specifically designed for faith-conscious travellers.
The launch comes as industry research from CrescentRating indicates Asia is positioned to become the next major halal travel hotspot, with Muslim travellers increasingly seeking travel options that align with their religious requirements while still delivering premium experiences.
"Halal Holidays was founded with a simple mission: to make it easy for Muslims to travel confidently and comfortably," said Vincent Tan, founder of Halal Holidays. "We understand that faith plays a crucial role in travel decisions, and our goal is to provide a platform whereMuslim travellers can find reliable, convenient, and fulfilling holiday options - all in one place."
The newly launched website features a comprehensive range of halal-certified travel packages across popular Asian destinations, including Thailand, Japan, Turkey, the Maldives, South Korea, Indonesia, and the UAE. Each package guarantees essential Muslim-friendly amenities including 100% halal-certified meals, prayer facilities, modest accommodation options, and culturally sensitive services.
HalalHolidays.asia differentiates itself through specialized offerings, including halal beach holidays, family-friendly packages, luxury escapes, cultural tours highlighting Islamic heritage sites, and Umrah Add-On Packages that combine spiritual journeys with leisure travel. The platform's Umrah series allows travellers to coordinate religious pilgrimages with visits to nearby countries while maintaining Islamic etiquette.
"From search to booking, we've made sure HalalHolidays.asia delivers a frictionless and trustworthy experience," said Vincent Tan. "We want to eliminate the anxiety Muslims often feel when booking travel, especially when unsure about halal options abroad."
The mobile-responsive platform enables users to browse packages by destination, theme, or travel type, with transparent information about included halal amenities. The site also offers real-time support from Muslim travel consultants fluent in English, Malay, and Arabic.
Post-pandemic travel trends show Muslim travellers increasingly prioritizing meaningful experiences, spiritual rejuvenation, and ethical tourism options. Asia's cultural diversity, affordability, and growing Muslim population position it as an ideal region for halal tourism growth.
The company has established strategic partnerships with halal-certified hotels, Islamic tour operators, restaurants, and community centres to build a comprehensive ecosystem for Muslim travellers. Future development plans include a mobile app, loyalty programs, and content collaborations with Muslim lifestyle influencers.
"We're not just selling vacations. We're helping Muslims reconnect with the world, with their families, and with their faith - through travel," added Vincent Tan.

Casino Tycoon Lawrence Ho's SPAC Swings Wildly After Merger With ‘Media And Entertainment Group'

Lawrence Ho, chairman and CEO of casino giant Melco International Development. A special purpose acquisition company backed by casino magnate Lawrence Ho completed its merger with an obscure media and entertainment company, whose stock was on a roller-coaster ride during its New York Stock Exchange debut on Thursday. Shares of France-based the Generation Essentials Group (TGE) skyrocketed as much as 234% on their first day of trading after the de-SPAC. The company closed flat at $10.04 on Thursday, reaching a market cap of $533 million. TGE merged with Black Spade Acquisition II, a blank-check company formed by Ho's Hong Kong-based family office Black Spade Capital, at an equity value of $488 million and enterprise value of $892 million. It came nearly a year after Ho listed Black Spade Acquisition II, raising $150 million with the aim to combine with a company in the entertainment, lifestyle or technology sectors that benefits from AI. TGE is a subsidiary of AMTD Digital, which briefly became the world's hottest stock after it went public on the New York Stock Exchange in 2022. At the time, AMTD Digital founder Calvin Choi, a well-connected Hong Kong financier, amassed a paper fortune of as much as $37 billion in less than a month after AMTD Digital's listing. Shares of AMTD Digital have since plunged more than 99% from its peak in August 2022. Lawrence Ho (middle) and Calvin Choi (middle right), founder of AMTD Digital and the Generation Essentials Group. Formerly known as World Media and Entertainment Universal, TGE says it operates as a 'global media and entertainment ecosystem covering high fashion, arts, lifestyle, cultural, entertainment as well as F&B.' The company runs media outlets including the L'Officiel fashion magazine (acquired in 2022) and the Art Newspaper (acquired in 2023), produces Chinese-language movies with a combined gross box office it says reached more than $400 million, and operates two hotels—one in Hong Kong and the other in Singapore. TGE's biggest revenue contributor in 2024 was its 'strategic investments,' which included the stocks of Bank of Qingdao, Guangzhou Rural Commercial Bank and its parent AMTD Digital, as well as film investments. The company reported an 81% jump in revenue to $77 million last year, with 45% coming from those investments, followed by hospitality and media advertising. Its net profit more than doubled to $44.7 million during the period, mainly due to the disposal of some non-core businesses. A Black Spade Capital spokesperson said there're 'strong synergies' between TGE and Ho's entertainment and hospitality empire. 'We are actively exploring new ideas and collaborations to enhance value on both sides,' the spokesperson said in an email response. 'With TGE's hardworking team and innovative spirit, and now a solid capital raising platform, we are confident they will reach the next level and become a leading global force in media, fashion, and art.' Ho, chairman and CEO of casino giant Melco International Development, is a son of late casino legend Stanley Ho. In 2021, he listed his first SPAC in the U.S., raising $169 million. Two years later, that blank-check company completed a $23 billion business combination with VinFast Auto, Vietnam's electric-vehicle maker controlled by the country's richest person Pham Nhat Vuong. VinFast saw its stock inexplicably skyrocketed to a peak market cap of $190 billion in August 2023. Its shares have since then plummeted more than 95% from its peak.

HealthKois Launches USD 300 Mn Healthcare-Focused Fund

Over the next four years, the firm aims to invest between USD 7 million to USD 25 million per company in early growth-stage businesses operating across healthtech, life sciences, medtech, healthcare delivery and climate health. You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. In a major boost to India's healthcare investment landscape, HealthKois, a new healthcare-focused investment firm, has been launched with a target corpus of USD 300 million and an additional USD 100 million green shoe option. Spearheaded by the leadership team behind HealthQuad—Charles Janssen (Managing Partner), Ajay Mahipal (Partner), and Dr Pinak Shrikhande (Partner)—the firm aims to accelerate healthcare transformation through strategic investments in high-impact, technology-driven enterprises. As the successor fund to HealthQuad, HealthKois is set to invest between USD 7 million and USD 25 million per company over the next four years. The focus will be on early growth-stage businesses across healthtech, life sciences, medtech, healthcare delivery, and climate health sectors. The goal is to support ventures that deliver both robust clinical outcomes and sustainable infrastructure solutions. "HealthKois will back technology-led and innovative healthcare companies that address critical gaps in accessibility, affordability, and quality of care," said Charles Janssen. "With access to over 75% proprietary deal flow, we're well-positioned to leverage our deep networks and operational expertise to deliver both superior financial returns and societal outcomes." "HealthKois represents our deep belief that meaningful change in healthcare can only be achieved by scaling enterprises that blend purpose with performance," said Ajay Mahipal. "We're not just capital providers—we're long-term collaborators with founders, bringing strategic insight and sector knowledge to help unlock their full potential." Dr Pinak Shrikhande added, "Our experience has taught us that true innovation in healthcare is born out of empathy, evidence, and execution. We look for companies that go beyond intent to deliver real clinical and operational impact." HealthKois builds on the legacy of HealthQuad Funds I and II, which have collectively touched over 90 million lives and serve more than 8 million patients annually. While the earlier funds will continue under their current framework, HealthKois signals a new chapter in advancing healthcare innovation across India and other low- and middle-income countries.
