Sandakan Festival can attract more tourists

SANDAKAN: Passengers arriving at the Sandakan Airport from Kuala Lumpur received a pleasant surprise yesterday when they were greeted warmly by VIPs and a group of dancers from SK Muhibbah in conjunction with Sandakan Festival.

The pupils dressed in Turkish costumes delighted the visitors with a colourful and lively dance.

The special welcome is for two days as part of the Sandakan Festival celebration. Other than the greeting for passengers, there will also be other activities at the airport to attract people to come.

With many people coming to the airport, tour agents and companies doing business there will have to ensure that they provide good service and are always pleasant to customers and visitors.

Among the popular destinations renowned among visitors is the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre, Kinabatangan River and Sukau where wildlife abound.
