Yacht race gives Malaysia tourism a boost

The Monsoon Cup is a world-class yacht race in Malaysia that sees some the world's best sailors compete.

Held in the state of Terengganu, the event has not only turned the area into a sailing hub, but has also promoted it as a tourist destination.

The season has become a business opportunity for many locals, especially for restaurants and hotel owners.
