Tourism Malaysia London

I've often wondered how Tourism Malaysia can afford to run an office in the heart of London, at Trafalgar Square. Other people obviously have the same thoughts, as last week this question was asked in The Sun.

Today, 16 Aug 2010, I found the answer in The Sun.

"Malaysia House, at 57 Trafalgar Square (where Tourism Malaysia office stands today) was a gift from Her Majesty the Queen of England as the Head of Commonwealth to the Malayan Government in 1957."

So it's nice to know that it's not costing Malaysia anything in rent to run this office. It's just a pity that Tourism Malaysia doesn't put more effort into making it more attractive, considering its prime location in the very heart of London.

See my comments from May 2010.
