Visitor arrivals grew 13.4% YoY in Jan 2012

Arrivals from China spiked up 52.8% YoY to 201.7k.

Visitor arrivals maintained strong growth of 13.4% YoY in Jan 2012 to reach 1.2m.

In that month, arrivals from the three largest countries of origin, namely Indonesia, China and Malaysia, saw solid increases. These countries accounted for 40% of all visitorarrivals last year.

Notably, arrivals from China spiked up 52.8% YoY to 201.7k in Jan.

"While some of the increase could be attributed to Chinese New Year falling in Jan instead of Feb this year, we note that the Jan-12 China number is 34.5% higher than the Feb-11 figure," says OCBC Investment Research.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
