The Malaysian government has decided to open a diplomatic mission in Kathmandu. Nepali visitors to the country will also be granted a 14-day visa on their arrival. In return, Nepal will be establishing an embassy in the Malaysian capital. The national flag carrier RNAC recently began a twice-weekly flight service to Kuala Lumpur. Both countries hope to promote tourism and bilateral economic relations, which will include a plan to increase the number of Nepalis working in Malaysia. Official data on Nepali workers in Malaysia puts the number at around 80,000.
