SARAWAK Tourism Board (STB) has rolled out its Sia Sitok Sarawak (SSS) 3.0 and Sia Sitok Sarawak Accommodation (SSSA) 2.0 campaign with “double the deal, double the fun” offer exclusively for Sarawakians and non-Sarawakians residing in Sarawak with work permits.
Through SSS 3.0, Sarawakians will be able to enjoy over 88 exciting packages for tours and activities throughout their state which includes daytrips and multi-day trips.
On the other hand, the SSSA 2.0 campaign offers attractive staycations packages, local hotel and resorts under the Malaysian Association of Hotel’s Sarawak Chapter at hotelsarawak.com.my.
The booking period for both deals start from March 1 until April 30 while the travelling period is from March 1 till May 31.
“We started Sia Sitok Sarawak which translates to Ke Sana Ke Sini Sarawak as a measure to boost the local tourism industry during the pandemic as well as to revive the economy for the state,” commented STB’s CEO Sharzede Datu Haji Salleh Askor.
“We are heartened that this home-grown brand and campaign has grown from strength to strength, cementing our confidence in the culture, adventure, nature, food and festivals (or CANFF) of our state.”
With SSS 3.0 and SSSA 2.0, STB has expanded the number of packages available, giving Sarawakians even more opportunities to discover the uniqueness of their state.
“Ultimately, we want Sarawakians to explore their own backyards, and become tourism ambassadors for other travellers around the world,” Sharzede pointed out.
“We urge Sarawakians to leverage this exclusive opportunity by grabbing the limited SSS 3.0 and SSSA 2.0 deals. There is no better way to travel than with friends and family, and what better opportunity it is to discover the beautiful culture, adventure and nature in Sarawak.”
She is also optimistic that the campaigns will contribute towards realising the state’s tourism targets for the year.
“2022 is a chapter of resilience, resurgence and growth for the travel industry, and STB will continue focusing on building and creating new ways of doing business beyond the COVID-19 pandemic,” added Sharzede.
Among the unique and enticing packages and activities up for grabs are the Kuching Sunset Night Cycling ride which covers 85% of Kuching’s “sights” as listed by the Lonely Planet; exploring Bung Jagoi Heritage, an old Bidayuh village established 175 years ago; or hop onto the Irrawaddy Dolphin Morning Cruise.
Those looking to explore Central Sarawak can escape to Central Coastal’s Villages Exploration in Bruit, Daro and Matu; a 3D/2N Bakun get-away; or visit Mukah which is the Melanau Heartland (3D2N).
