Sarawak - Where Business And Adventure Meet
THE DESTINATION
Sarawak is a destination with a difference. Its Old World charm, its vibrant culture and
its pristine natural attractions all combine to create
a meeting and conference location par excellence, complemented by modern facilities
and a dynamic corporate culture. There is no place on earth more suited to revealing valuable new perspectives, and unleashing new ways of thinking, that are essential for success in today’s increasingly competitive global economy.

enviable choice of venues; beach resorts surrounded
by dense primary jungle and caressed by the waters of the South China Sea; rugged rainforest resorts which offer challenging adventure activities where guests get hands-on with nature; a mountain-top golf resort where golfers look down onto the clouds; a luxurious eco resort which is also
the gateway to the world’s greatest cave system; and many, many more.
Of course, Sarawak’s major
cities (Kuching, Miri, Sibu and Bintulu) have many modern
3 to 5- star hotels with excellent conference facilities for more conventional gatherings, and Kuching even boasts Borneo’s first purpose- built conference venue, the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (see page 390).
Just as important as the venues are the activites offered; there are few better ways to bond a team together than exploring Mulu’s challenging cave system, or volunteering to help with
Sarawak Convention Bureau MD Mike Cannon (centre) and his dedicated team of convention professionals.
