Travellers arriving at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport will now receive a dazzling welcome. A row of four giant digital screens beaming the latest international advertisements combined with “Welcome to Malaysia” messages in various languages, accompanied by video footage of Malaysian scenery, have been installed there.
The digital screens can be found at the international arrival halls and are supplied by VGI Meru, the advertising provider for the KLIA, KLIA2, and Senai International Airport in Malaysia.
It is indeed a “huge” welcome as the digital installation is about half the size of a football field, and believed to be one of the largest inside an airport in Asia.
The installation took two weeks to complete and was recently unveiled by Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad (MAHB) senior general manager (Commercial Services) Mohammad Nazli Abdul Aziz and VGI Meru chief operating officer Jonathan Goldsmid.
“We are optimistic that this first installation is a step in the right direction in our plans to enhance the overall passenger experience at KLIA,” Nazli said. He added that Malaysia, one of the fastest growing airports in the region, is at the epicentre of aviation growth with nearly 60 million passengers yearly.
“These screens are dynamic tools that can present value-added video content in different languages, making them a great platform to reach international travellers arriving at KLIA and showcase what our country has to offer,” said Nazli.
Goldsmid shared that the response from advertisers has been positive.

November 11, 2018 at 5:10 pmCertainly not. Malaysia have a long way to go in toilet cleanliness. Examples of best public toilets in Asia are Japan, Thailand and Singapore. No point in having good public toilets if Malaysians cannot keep them clean. Keep the school toilets clean first and that’s the first step in educating Malaysians on keeping toilets clean.

November 11, 2018 at 10:52 pmEducation in schools is very important to teach the kids in school that cleanliness is important. They should learn from the Japanese system that each and every students clean the toilets on routine to ensure is not a dirty job but an education.

November 12, 2018 at 12:25 amPls go behind the scenes where the workers work. It’s so dirty and unhygienic. Even where the restaurants store their food. Everything is so nice on the outside. But health officials just close an eye. Cockroaches and rats can be seen. Especially at tarmac area. Hard to find a decent toilet. Even the surau is not clean. Think the African airports which I’ve been to are much more cleaner. Please treat everyone equal with human rights.

November 12, 2018 at 1:33 amMalaysian Public toilets might not be the best toilet in the world,but compare to other countries.
Malaysian toilets are well equipped it’s only the behaviour of the users that’s making it unclean.We need to educate them if not fine them.
Toilets in Malaysian Highways are clean, even we can sleep on the floor compare to international airports in other Countries
Thanks

November 12, 2018 at 10:12 amMalaysian agencies should respond to complaints. No point giving an auto reply. I complained of urine stench on my flight to osaka in april 2018 on MH. changing seats does not solve the problem. The cabin crew said nothing can be done about it. I lodged an online complaint but till today no response.
