January 26th-February 2nd 2009
Five years ago, many analysts believed that Southeast Asian markets would be in trouble due to intense competition from China. However, as I predicted, the region has thrived and offers investors a great play on Asian growth,
Isn’t it about time you learn more about this dynamic and fascinating region?
Join me on a luxury adventure from Singapore through Kuala Lumpur to Penang and then on to Bangkok.
Travel in style aboard the historic Eastern & Oriental Express and enjoy all the sites and culture of Southeast Asia while also learning more about the region’s investment opportunities. Our nine days begin with three days in Singapore at the Raffles Hotel. After interesting economic, company and regional investment briefings from experts plus a visit to places like the Singapore Stock Exchange during the mornings, enjoy flexible touring options such as cruises, sightseeing or sporting activities in the afternoons and evenings. One morning will be dedicated to Malaysia which has been a steady performer.
On the fourth day, the Eastern & Oriental Express departs Singapore’s Keppel Road station in the morning. Having been welcomed onboard the gleaming carriages, settle into your luxury cabin and, if you wish, meet interesting people from all over the world. Enjoy the passing scenery as the train crosses to Malaysia via the causeway of the Straits of Johor.
Lunch is served in one of the opulent dining cars. Dress for dinner and then spend a relaxing evening in the Bar Car in the company of our resident pianist.
During the evening, the E&O arrives at Kuala Lumpur’s magnificent Moorish-style station where you will disembark for a tour before departing for an overnight journey towards Bangkok with side trips to the island of Penang and the River Kwai. Our home for three days in Bangkok will be the prestigious Oriental.
Throughout our trip, we will schedule investment-oriented activities in the mornings allowing you the freedom during afternoons and evenings. The tour is limited to 25 investors.
The Investing Along the Orient Express package price per person excluding airfare is $5,600 for a Pullman Compartment on the Orient Express and $6,200 if you prefer a State Compartment.
