Kuala Lumpur hotels catered and captures Islamic tourist which may have been unnoticed


Malaysia has been having a growing tourist industry over the last 50 years. This   industry has been among the top four contributing sectors toward the country’s Gross Domestic Product. This year 2010 it will receive close to 12 million tourists. And a growing attraction is Islamic tourist whom many countries may have ignored. The official religion recognized by the government is Islam. It has in time catered and complied with the Muslim tourist who adheres to certain requirements. Is very interesting as to how the whole tourist industry evolved with much government support and regulations.
Food and way of preparation
Kuala Lumpur hotels and also all other hotels before a housekeeper license is issued has to meet all major Islamic food preparation regulations. They have to have halal food outlets. These outlets at the hotel cannot serve any food containing pork. So outlet which cater for various type of country food like Western, Thai, Chinese, or any ethnic foods avoid using pork in the preparation. Some restaurants have exemption and a sign notifies if non halal is. So Muslim abstain eating at these types of outlets. Also certain meat must be cult in a certain way to meet Muslim beliefs. Otherwise it will be not accepted. Tourist on flights to Kuala Lumpur or when they have meals at hotel or at  Malaysia resorts can be assured that the cutlery and dishes have not touched pork at all.

Direction of Mecca
In every room it is informed which direction to pray to Mecca. Tourist whom visits our Kuala Lumpur Malaysia hotel would be confident when he prays he is focusing in the direction he is committed to pray to. Otherwise he will have to have a compass to know this. By looking up at the ceiling he will see and follow an arrow which informs him of this. This may have been passed off by many other hotels in other countries. Some hotels also have the Koran in the room and not the bible as being the tradition.

Places of worship
Islam is the religion of the majority of the citizens. There is mosques very near or walking distance from hotel at Kuala Lumpur. In the city where a major concentration of activity takes place many magnificent mosques are located near major shopping centers to cater for also the Muslim tourist on Fridays which is a worship day at around noon. A major Kuala Lumpur attraction is these mosques also emulate many Moorish and West Asian designs. Mosques are also a major tourist visit  as many the construction of them were conceptualized with a lot of fine intricate artwork by master designers from Islamic credentials.

Code of dressing.
Muslim tourists who prefer a special dress feel very comfortable in Malaysia as most Muslim women also use similar dressing as the accepted dress code. Due to much influence and concurring to this Muslim from all over the world find holidays in Malaysia very acceptable. This is catered because of the strong government support to capture this large tourist or ignored segment by most other tourist attractions.

Major international hotel chain taken advantage of this captive tourist sector by adjusting their system to cater for Muslim tourist and make their stay memorable and at home as they say. Our Malaysian airlines also have frequent flight to Muslim populated destination like India, Saudi Arabia to arrange Malaysia tour for them.
This payoff could not be enjoyed by the hotel in Malaysia without  effort and support by all sectors like Malaysia tour companies and the central government to capture this niche tourist sector. This is never ending recently due to the increasing number of Muslim tourist more West Asian restaurant food have been opened   as this is catered for them specifically in the heart of Kuala Lumpur like Bukit Bintang.
A good attraction which Muslim and other tourist must visit which previously a small park had been transformed to a ideal Arabian night replica of the magic lamp, water fountains and in the night sit on the comfortable seats and look up at the stars over Kuala Lumpur and go back to the days of Sinbad.
