Muslim Traveller Guide
Kuala Lumpur is one of the easiest cities in the world for a Muslim business traveller. Malaysia is a Muslim-majority country, so halal food is the default rather than the exception, and prayer rooms (surau) are standard in malls, office towers and transport hubs. The main expo venues — the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) in the city centre and MITEC near Jalan Duta — are both well served by rail and ride-hailing. English is widely spoken, and most hotels provide a qibla marker and a prayer mat on request.
