Kuala Lumpur’s social scene is about to level up as global skills-game powerhouse HB Leisure (HBL) launches Malaysia’s first-ever social entertainment venue, built for the booming trend of “competitive socializing.”

Nestled in a tech-enhanced rooftop setting at Avenue K, Carousel & Co. is an all-in-one destination where guests are invited to eat, drink, and challenge one another across large-format skill games in a highly immersive venue inspired by the golden age of fairgrounds.

The place is set up like a modern carnival, with a show-stopping Carousel Bar at the center serving handcrafted cocktails and easy, shareable bites. It’s built for groups, turning the usual night out into a fun, interactive hangout with different zones to explore, cool design details, and upgraded food and drinks. Whether you’re planning a work event or just looking for a new after-work spot, Carousel & Co. mixes relaxed social dining with the energy and playful competition of carnival games — perfect for unwinding, celebrating, or just having a good time.

“Malaysia’s social scene is evolving beyond dining and nightlife. Carousel & Co. brings the next phase — an experience that celebrates connection, creativity and competition,” said Greg Pearn, Head of New Concepts at HBL. “We wanted to capture that nostalgic carnival feeling but reimagine it for adults — where the games are bigger, the cocktails bolder and the laughter louder. We’re combining our 100-year heritage in theme park skill-based entertainment with Kuala Lumpur’s growing appetite for quality, playful experiences.”

Carousel & Co. marks HBL’s big debut in Malaysia’s lifestyle and entertainment scene, and it’s built with both scalability and future franchise potential across Southeast Asia in mind. The venue blends tech-enabled play with group-friendly design. Think digital scoring woven into every corner and spaces made for teams, gatherings, and social hangouts. Guests can look forward to modern twists on classic skill games like Down-The-Clown, Skeeball, and Basketball, all enhanced with real-time scoring that keeps the energy high and the competition fun. Those looking to use it as an event space can peruse its available private spaces, which can accommodate groups from eight to 115 people.

“Avenue K is exactly the right kind of playground for what we’re building,” added Greg. “It’s at the center of the city’s heartbeat, where business types, shoppers and travelers all cross paths. Carousel & Co. will fit right in by giving people a spot to have a drink, take a bite to eat, share a laugh and sneak in a little friendly competition along the way.”

No official opening date has been announced, but it’s expected to welcome guests sometime in December. Tickets at Carousel and Co. start from RM60, and tables can be booked here.

In a region where boutique stays and luxury towers compete for attention, JI Hotel is carving out its own lane rooted in simplicity, cultural nuance, and a kind of understated elegance that feels more like home than hospitality. Now, with new locations opening in Kuala Lumpur and Phnom Penh, H World Group is bringing its signature blend of “oriental aesthetics meets modern comfort” to the heart of Southeast Asia’s most vibrant cities.

The move includes three new properties: the JI Hotel Downtown Kuala Lumpur, a 101-room urban retreat in the Dang Wangi district set to open in Q4 2026; the JI Hotel Phnom Penh City Center, a 130-room conversion project in the capital’s bustling business district, opening Q2 2026; and the JI Hotel Phnom Penh Mekong Riverside, a 110-room new-build with river-view dining and Khmer-inspired design, launching in Q3 2026.

This expansion builds on the brand’s proven success in the region, including the JI Hotel Orchard Road in Singapore, which recently celebrated its sixth anniversary, while its popularity among both business and leisure guests has helped solidify JI Hotel’s reputation as a go-to for affordable luxury with cultural flair.

Each new hotel will feature the brand’s latest JI Hotel 5.0 design, combining clean lines, warm textures, and intuitive tech. Guests can expect thoughtful touches like locally sourced breakfast options, energy-efficient architecture, and seamless digital check-in, all part of H World’s asset-light, tech-forward hospitality model.

Whether you’re a solo traveler chasing city lights or a couple seeking riverside serenity, JI Hotel’s new locations promise a stay that’s both grounded and elevated. And with H World’s continued expansion into Southeast Asia, the brand is quickly becoming a staple across Asia Pacific’s most dynamic gateways.

Keep an eye on H Group’s official website as JI Hotel is coming, and it’s bringing comfort with character.

If you’ve spotted a double-decker bus in Kuala Lumpur wrapped in cherry blossoms or a ride-hailing car cruising through Kota Kinabalu with a cartoon bear waving at you, you should know you’re not dreaming. It’s Taiwan, and it’s rolling into town in style.

Earlier in September, the Taiwan Tourism Administration’s Kuala Lumpur office teamed up with beloved Malaysian illustrator Jayee Lim to launch the “WOW Taiwan” vehicle advertisement campaign. This isn’t your average tourism promo because 200 ride-hailing cars and 12 double-decker buses are now canvassing the Klang Valley and Kota Kinabalu, decked out in vibrant designs that celebrate Taiwan’s natural beauty and cultural charm.

Each vehicle features one of three whimsical themes like Retreat2WOW, with Alishan’s cherry blossoms and forest railway, Discover2WOW, a tribute to Taipei 101 and hot spring flower fields, and finally Adventure2WOW, a visual journey through Sanxiantai, Vase Rock, and Indigenous heritage.

The campaign marks the first time Taiwan’s tourism push has reached Sabah, signaling a broader embrace of Malaysian travelers. At the launch, Deputy Representative James Buu from TECO Malaysia emphasized Taiwan’s commitment to showcasing its rich culture through fresh, creative avenues. Huang Yi-Cheng, Chief of the International Affairs Division, added that the designs reflect the theme “Embrace the Mountains, Embrace the Sea, Enjoy Island Travel,” spotlighting 100 top tourist attractions.

Whether you’re a traveler or just daydreaming about your next escape, this campaign is a moving invitation, literally, to explore Taiwan’s lush landscapes, buzzing cities, and warm hospitality in a whole different way in Malaysia.

Malaysia Airlines is set to strengthen its South India network, adding more frequencies to the Kuala Lumpur-Trivandrum route following encouraging load factors and sustained demand.

Starting Sept. 12, 2025, the airline will be introducing a fifth weekly service before moving towards a daily service from Dec. 1, 2025. Tickets for the new frequencies are now available for booking across Malaysia Airlines’ official channels and appointed travel partners.

This increase in frequency reaffirms Malaysia Airlines’ commitment to the Indian market by offering travelers greater flexibility and convenience while strengthening connectivity between India and Malaysia. Since its launch in November 2023 with twice-weekly flights, then increasing to four times weekly in April 2024, this new addition is a significant step forward, reflecting the route’s growth.

“India remained a key focus market for Malaysia Airlines, and this frequency increase reaffirms our dedication to meeting the growing demand for air travel from South India,” said Dersenish Aresandiran, Chief Commercial Officer of Airlines from Malaysia Aviation Group. “With the introduction of daily flights to Trivandrum from December, we are well-positioned to provide both leisure and business travellers with greater flexibility and convenience, while supporting trade and tourism flows between our two countries.”

Malaysia Airlines currently operates 77 weekly flights across 10 key cities in India, including Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi, Ahmedabad, Amritsar, and Trivandrum.

International travelers flying through Malaysia can also tap into Malaysia Airlines’ Bonus Side Trip (BST) program, offering a domestic flight to one of seven domestic destinations within Malaysia with zero base fare.

In the heart of Petaling Jaya, one of Klang Valley’s most recognizable hospitality fixtures is entering an exciting new chapter.

Eastin Hotel Kuala Lumpur, a staple in the local hotel scene since 1998, is set to be reimagined and rebranded as the Petaling Jaya Marriott Hotel by December 2025.

Currently boasting 388 rooms, the five-star property will remain open and committed to providing a comfortable experience to guests throughout the transformation, which officially began renovations on June 10, 2025.

As one of the latest additions to Marriott’s expanding Malaysian portfolio, the revamped Petaling Jaya Marriott Hotel aims to bring a renewed sense of luxury, alongside the signature service that Marriott Hotels are known for, straight to the city’s doorstep.

The move comes as part of a strategic collaboration between TSM Global and Marriott International, aligning the hotel with the elevated standards of the Marriott Hotels brand.

The refresh will include a complete overhaul of key areas, from the main lobby to select guest rooms, alongside the addition of premium amenities like the M Club Lounge for Elite and Club members, a Chinese restaurant, and a Kids Club designed to welcome families.

Marriott, which already operates more than 60 properties across Malaysia under 20 different brands, continues to strengthen its presence in key destinations throughout the country.

“The conversion of Eastin Kuala Lumpur into Petaling Jaya Marriott Hotel reflects our commitment to growing the Marriott Hotels brand in key urban centers across Malaysia,” said George Varughese, Market Vice President for Malaysia at Marriott International. “Working closely with TSM Global, we look forward to reintroducing this landmark property with refreshed offerings that align with the brand’s modern design ethos and elevated guest experience.”

The rebranding is set to enhance the hotel's visibility and ease of access, thanks to its prime location along the SPRINT Highway and a short walk from the Phileo Damansara MRT station. Just 15 minutes from KL Sentral, the hotel also connects directly to the North–South Expressway, making it an ideal stopover for travelers en route to or from Johor, Melaka, Perak, Penang, and KLIA.
