CEO Speech
 
 
Sarawakians are always concerned for the well being of visitors and guests and it is unforgiveable for a guest to go hungry. Instead of greeting people with "apa khabar?" (how are you) they often prefer to use "sudah makan?" (have you eaten?).
This is just one of the thirty eight unique facts that you will find in the new Meeting and Incentive Planners Guide just released by the Sarawak Convention Bureau.
The 140 page guide is crammed full of useful information for meeting planners from throughout Sarawak, the largest State of Malaysia situated on the exotic island of Borneo. It features information on the Bureau's services to meeting planners, Sarawak's meeting credentials, top Incentive ideas and 173 convention venues and product and service providers.
The photography in the guide includes the work of well known Australian photographer David Kirkland who is a regular visitor to Sarawak and includes stunning visual images.
The Guide is currently available in DVD format and the first printed copies will be available from 10th
