Primary data was used for the study with questionnaire as the survey instrument.358 Arab tourists in Malaysia were used as the research subjects for the study.The various hypotheses for this study were tested using the smartPLS analysis technique.The finding of the study revealed that both information source and information channels factors significantly affect the information choice strategies of the Arab tourists.
