Surge in foreign tourists visiting S'gor in lead-up to VSY 2025

SELANGOR is experiencing a shift in its tourism landscape as international visitors begin to form a larger part of the state's tourist arrivals. According to state local government and tourism committee chairman Datuk Ng Suee Lim, the ratio of international to domestic tourists was previously 30:70. 'But by 2024, we successfully broke that pattern. 'Now, international tourists make up a larger share of visitors. 'This a positive sign for Selangor's growing global appeal,' he said. Ng said that while the momentum was encouraging, Sekinchan faced one major hurdle – the lack of four-star hotels for the rising number of higher-spending tourists. He was speaking to reporters at Sekinchan Padi Field Festival 2025 in the Sabak Bernam district. The state government had aimed to draw some 13,000 visitors to the two-day event. Held at Terminal Sekinchan, the festival was the first of its kind in Malaysia and had been held in support of Visit Selangor Year (VSY) 2025.

'This festival was created to let visitors enjoy the beauty of agro-tourism in northern Selangor, a region that produces the most rice in Malaysia and is rich in natural beauty that you can't find in modern cities,' said Ng. The festival was launched by Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari. Held from 7am to 7pm over two days, it featured a variety of family-friendly and cultural activities. Among first day highlights were electric tram and rickshaw tours through padi fields, a food festival, traditional kite (wau kapal) demonstrations, a mini kite decoration competition and a live performance by Malaysian singer-songwriter Aizat Amdan. The second day offered even more attractions, which included a padi field run, free health screenings and environmental volunteer activities. The festival was part of the VSY2025 campaign that aimed to draw 8 million visitors and generate RM11.7bil in tourism- related transactions. To support these goals, the Selangor Budget 2025 has allocated RM8mil for VSY2025 preparations. These include programming and upgrading tourism facilities across all nine districts. In the works are over 100 programmes and initiatives covering educational tourism, sports, food and beverage, arts, culture and heritage. Also present during the festival press conference were Menteri Besar Incorporated chief executive officer Saipolyazan M. Yusop and Tourism Selangor chief executive officer Chua Yee Ling.

Spotlight on leadership at hospitality festival

Participants were treated to a dynamic events line-up that included keynote addresses, expert panels, workshops and group chats. OVER 120 hospitality professionals from South-East Asia, Japan and China met in George Town, Penang, to be a part of global growth in the sector. They attended the three-day Ascott Learning Festival 2025 held at Ascott Gurney Penang, which was designed to foster leadership, innovation and professional growth. The festival, in its second edition, was themed 'Grow with Us, Lead Our Future'. It showcased a forward- thinking agenda with keynote addresses, expert panels, workshops and group chats. Organised by The Ascott Limited (Ascott), it aimed to deepen regional collaboration and strengthen lifelong learning across the Ascott network. Participants were treated to a dynamic events line-up that included a food innovation session led by acclaimed chef Darren Teoh of Malaysia's sole two Michelin star-restaurant Dewakan.

Teoh explored the contrasts and commonalities between street food and hotel dining. In a lighter segment titled 'Ask Me Anything', popular Malaysian stand-up comedian Douglas Lim charmed the crowd. When asked what career he might have pursued had he not become a comedian, Lim quipped, 'I actually studied to be a teacher but then I realised it wouldn't suit me, mainly because I hate children.' The laughter Lim elicited brought a fun twist to the festival's otherwise intensive programme and allowed attendees to connect through shared humour. Ascott Malaysia country general manager Mondi Mecja, in his speech at the event, said the festival was more than just a corporate training event. 'It's a platform for our people to be inspired by the best in the business, from culinary innovators to thought leaders in AI (artificial intelligence) and wellness,' he added. The festival nurtured attendees with sessions covering digital marketing trends, financial literacy, mindfulness and adaptive leadership. The final day focused on strategic thinking and featured a live-streamed dialogue with CapitaLand Group chairman Wong Kan Seng and CapitaLand Investment (CLI) chairman Miguel Ko. Participants also enjoyed cultural immersion activities, adding local flavour to the festival.

Elon Musk is not the father of my kids: Ayumi Hamasaki sets the record straight

Ayumi Hamasaki went on social media earlier this week to quash rthe umours that Elon Musk is her baby daddy. Photos: Ayumi Hamasaki/Instagram, AP Japanese pop diva Ayumi Hamasaki would like you to know that Elon Musk is not the father of her two children, thank you very much. This misunderstanding stemmed from a New York Times article in late May, where one of Musk's ex-flames, Ashley St. Clair, said that the American billionaire had fathered the child of "a Japanese pop star". Some netizens believe it's Japanese TV personality Tenka Hashimoto, while others suspect it's 46-year-old Hamasaki. For the record, Musk, 53, has already fathered 14 children with several different women. Hamasaki went on social media earlier this week to quash the rumours. 'I've been keeping an eye on this, and I guess it's time for me to speak up. Elon Musk is not the father of [either of] my kids," the singer said on Instagram on June 2. The J-pop star, who has been married twice, has two children aged six and four. She has remained tight-lipped about their father's identity. Hamasaki is more amused than upset at the rumours. She said: "I mean, I can understand if someone were to think it seems like the sort of thing I'd do. Even my mum laughed when she heard the rumours, saying, 'This seems kind of Ayu-like'." Hamasaki added that she felt the need to set the record straight for the sake of her children. 'Setting aside my personal image, when my kids are old enough to start Googling things I don't want them to run into the rumours and think they're true, so I'm firmly denying them," she said.
