Malaysia is seeking to reverse a stagnation in visitor arrivals from South Asia with a rapid-fire marketing and promotional tour through five primary and secondary cities of India and Pakistan, its first overseas roadshow of 2102.

Visitors arrivals from Pakistan totalled 73,046 and the target for 2012 is at least 75,000.
