| Visit Sarawak Campaign |
Tourism, Arts, Culture, Youth and Sports Minister Datuk Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah held a coordination meeting on Nov 21 with the organiser and all relevant government departments and agencies to support and ensure that the event would promote Sarawak successfully.
It is expected to give Visit Sarawak Year a far bigger reach in the Asian market as it will not only present awards to celebrities, but also will promote Sarawak globally among them.
There will be 42 categories to recognise best performance, programming, and production excellence of the Asian television industry.
A gala dinner will be held on the first day of the event, while the live show, with the red carpet segment and performance awards presentation, will be held on the second day, to be followed by a public concert on Jan 13 at BCCK, which is the venue sponsor.
