A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made the STRA Forum 2026 (16–17 April) a great success!

We are truly encouraged by the overwhelming participation and strong support from industry leaders across the short-term rental ecosystem, as well as the invaluable presence of PLANMalaysia. Your insights, engagement, and commitment have made this forum a meaningful platform for progress.

Over the two days, we witnessed productive discussions, diverse perspectives, and a shared vision towards building a more structured, sustainable, and professional STRA industry in Malaysia.

This is just the beginning. Together, we will continue to strengthen collaboration between regulators, operators, and stakeholders to shape the future of short-term rentals in Malaysia.

Thank you once again for being part of this important journey.

In Visit Malaysia Year 2026, a successful STR landscape would include Nationally consistent STR regulations, strong collaboration between government, industry, and communities. STRs recognised as a regulated contributor to GDP and job creation.

MVR and its members look forward to supporting the Malaysian government in welcoming global visitors through continuous professional training, industry sharing, and service excellence.

With Visit Malaysia 2026 upon us, short-term rentals can help fill the gap in the rising demand for more tourist accommodation. However, the delay in the implementation of new national short-term rental rules is causing concern among both 'home-stay' hosts and their neighbours.
