The new look Sarawak Convention Bureau web site was officially launched in conjunction with premiere screening of the Bureau’s new award winning video commercial at a function at the Holiday Inn, Kuching.
The new look corporate web site acts as a one stop destination portal for local and international meeting planners providing them with information on the Bureau’s services; Sarawak’s destination credentials; incentive program ideas and tips on running successful conventions.
The web site is linked to the Bureau’s extensive database of meeting suppliers contained in the on-line business directory. The Directory enables planners to search for specific locations, venues and product information.
In another section of the web site planners and potential delegates can find details on forthcoming conventions and events.
The Bureau’s new site was designed and built by Sarawak Information Systems Sdn Bhd (SAINS) and includes a sophisticated behind the scenes content management system to enable quick and easy in-house updating and change management.
Suppliers wishing to be listed or meeting planners wishing to access any of the Bureau Services will find on-line or downloadable forms in the relevant sections of the web site at www.sarawakcb.com
In launching the new site, the Bureau’s Chief Executive Officer, Mrs Jill Henry said: “We operate in a fast moving global environment and it is vitally important that our clients can access accurate and up to date information on our products and services at any time of the day or night. Now the site is officially handed over we will have the ability to upload and transmit information around the world in minutes.” |
