MATTA, the acronym for the Malaysian Association of Tour & Travel Agents has become a household name, thanks to the success of ‘MATTA Fairs’. MATTA has evolved into a popular brand which can be attached to any product we choose to market such as MATTA School of Tourism, MATTA Medi Evac insurance etc.

It is an opportune time for MATTA to have a new logo as the businesses of our members have been transformed by the digital world and space-age technology. Internet is already fast displacing television for news and entertainment. Connecting to the internet would allow MATTA members to do business with the public at large and even has global reach, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week (24/7).

A new well-designed and meaningful logo will certainly add dynamism to both MATTA and its members.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE LOGO OF MATTA STANDS FOR?

As per MATTA’s Constitution:
"The logo is an oval shaped object of which the left hand half side is a symbolical globe in white background with blue colour latitude and longitude lines and the right hand half side, in blue colour background with a stylized version of the Concorde jet transport plane in white colour. Underneath and surrounding half of both sides of the above design are two stylised hands in red colour holding up the globe. At the base of the stylised hands are the modern type-face English letters in black colour spelling MATTA. The name of the Association in Bahasa Malaysia is written “Persatuan Ejen-Ejen Pelancongan dan Pengembaraan Malaysia".

Objective
The aim of this contest is to create a new logo or to redesign the “right half side” with the symbol of the Concorde jet which is anachronistic and not indigenous to our country. The symbol of an aeroplane only represents one specific section of the industry and it leaves out the other sectors such as ground transportation.
