An initiative to support tourism from Malaysia,
Tourism to the Holy Land is a visit to Palestine and an assurance that our churches and mosques are Palestinian.
This was confirmed by His Excellency Minister Rola Ma’ayah, Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, Mr. Maher Canawati and the tourism offices during their meeting with the Malaysian and Indonesian tourism offices. This visit came at the initiative of Brother Maher Canawati, as the countries of Malaysia and Indonesia refuse normalization with the other party and refuse to visit pilgrims to the lands Holy.
His Excellency the Minister and Brother Maher confirmed that visiting Palestine and its sanctities with its churches, mosques and archaeological sites is support for the Palestinian cause and the Palestinian economy, stressing that Palestine is Arab, its language is Arabic and its air is Palestinian Arab. The guests encourage the necessity of pilgrims of the peoples of the world to Palestine and support their cause.
