Visit Sibu Year 2009 well received


SIBU:The recent launching of Visit Sibu Year 2009 (VSY09) by Second Minister of Finance Dato’ Sri Wong Soon Koh, at the Sibu Gateway created interest among the people in Mukah, recently.

“We received a lot of queries from those who walked into our booth during the recent Kaul Festival in Mukah. Most of them told us that they were not aware of the many interesting events lined-up and places to visit during the Visit Sibu Year,” Rudy Anoi of Sarawak Tourism Board (STB) told Eastern Times here, yesterday.

“I guess since this is the first time Sibu has launched this kind of programme, members of the public are curious and even expressed surprise that there were many things to see and placeS to visit in Sibu,” he said.

(STB), a marketing and promoter of tourist products in the state, set up a booth in Mukah from April 24 to 26 in conjunction with this year’s Mukah Kaul Festival.

The site of the Mukah Kaul Festival was at Taman Kala Dana and one of the highlights of the three-day event was promoting VSY09, Rudy said.

“The orange-coloured Visit Sibu Year Calendar of Events stood out among other brochures that were on display. This made it easier for the visitors to pick and went through them. Many were impressed with the events listed in the Calendar,” he added.
