Sarawak to host MTC Gold Award 2022

KUCHING: The Malaysia Tourism Council (MTC) in collaboration with Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry, and Performing Arts Sarawak, will organise the annual MTC Gold Award ceremony this year.

The ceremony will be held on Saturday, October 22 at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK).

Minister, Datuk Seri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah explained that this is the first time that MTC collaborates with the state government in organising the award.

“We are seriously promoting Sarawak as a leading tourism destination and therefore it is very timely for this event to be held in Sarawak.

“As you know, tourism industry has been badly affected by the pandemic but nevertheless many tourism players have survived through their resilience and commitment,” he said.

He added that through MTC Gold Awards 2022, they are recognising the tourism heroes.

“Over 80 awards in various categories will be presented to the industry players for their excellence and support in the development of the tourism industry in Malaysia.

“The award is to recognise all industry players and stakeholders such as the national and state tourism, local authorities, hotels, tour operators, travel agencies, theme parks, homestays, NGO’s and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that contribute to the recovery of the tourism industry,” he explained.

He said more than 1,500 players from all over the country will be attending the event.

Abdul Karim explained that he was glad to inform that Sarawak’s tourism industry has shown very positive signs of recovery from the pandemic.

“Even though Covid-19 pandemic has halted many iconic events and festivals, the Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Sarawak has been working very hard to initiate, encourage and support events and festivals,” he said.

He looked forward to the MTC Gold Award in October while wishing the organiser a fruitful event which would bring much awaited excitement to the tourism industry.

LANGKAWI ISLAND, 4 NOVEMBER 2022 – Berjaya Langkawi Resort wins three awards in the 2022 World Luxury Awards.

Concurrently, the resort’s Taaras Spa and Pahn-Thai Restaurant have been awarded 2022 Regional Winner: South East Asia for Luxury Island Resort Spa category and 2022 Continent Winner: Asia for Thai Cuisine category respectively.

Nestled amidst a lush tropical rainforest, Berjaya Langkawi Resort boasts a pristine beachfront and 412 individual rainforest and water chalets built elegantly on stilts. It has been hailed as one of the best 5-star resorts in Langkawi, the preferred choice of many local and overseas holidaymakers.

Both guests and visitors are welcome to feast on authentic Thai cuisine in an open-air setting, with views of the Andaman Sea and Mount Mat Cincang.

The resort’s in-house Taaras Spa is an oasis of relaxation, tucked between breathtaking rainforest and beachside.
