Gawai best time to visit Sarawak: Tourism Malaysia


KUCHING: Tourism Malaysia has declared Gawai Dayak the best time to visit Sarawak.

Tourism Malaysia International Marketing Division for North, East and Southeast Asia director Chong Yoke Har said those who visited during the annual harvest festival would have “an experience like no other”, because the festival distinguished Sarawak from other places in the world.

“There are three words to describe Sarawak – magic, adventure and beautiful. It is a land of magic with its spiritual festivals and animistic beliefs, a land of adventure with its mountains and nature, a land of beautiful cultures and people,” she told participants of a mega familiarisation programme here on Friday night.

About 30 travel agents, journalists and television crew members from the Philippines, Vietnam, Laos and the United States took part in the programme to coincide with the World Harvest Festival, which will be held on May 23-24 at the Sarawak Cultural Village.

The programme was held with the support of local and foreign airlines, Malaysian hotels and state governments to give participants a personal experience of what the country has to offer tourists.
