Drumming Up Business for Sarawak - Sarawak Convention Bureau's Official Launch

posted by FH2o

We were back on Saturday afternoon and on Sunday; I took Simon and friends for some exciting kayaking through some fast and furious river swollen with 2 consecutive days of rain. And the excitement continued this morning at the Dewan Undangan Negri Sarawak with the official launch of Sarawak Convention Bureau who are ‘drumming up’ business for Sarawak.It was an exciting and creative launch with drums and the added participation of the guests who were given a drum and drumstick each for some drumming ‘lessons’ before the arrival of the VIP guest. Even the delicious 'brunch' refreshments after the launch were served in a refreshingly creative manner by ‘hibiscus girls and guys’! The only slight damper to the launch was the less than full non attendance of the lousy invited guests. Perhaps they should have consulted Kenny Sia who knows how to host the ‘awesomest’ party in town.

Enough excitement and now back to the grind ...StumbleUpon Toolbar Stumble It!

chocolate stealer!!
wuching - they're supposed to be hibiscus flowers!

jess - that makes you an accomplice! nay nay! ;) you know what - I got the loudest sounding drum as well!
fancy bumping into you there!
Weird Official Launch and why do we have to hire a foreigner as the CEO? another weird move by sarawak.

Anyway, the amusing part, apart from the hibiscus waiters and waitresess is the Announcement of the new Star, the Pehin Sri Taib Mahumd Sarawak Star, near the Orion Constellation!!

When I heard that, somehow, Emperor Palpatine and Star War's death star came to mind :P hahahahaha

Am now Imagining the Pehin Sri in hood and carrying a light saber and calling himself the Emperor hehehahaha..no wonder Darth Wuching is coming to Sarawak, he needs to pay respect to the Emperor hahahaha

For us Jedi's may the Force be with us
qv - It was a FUN and creative launch actually!
In order to kickstart and fast-track the convention business; we NEED foreign expertise and contacts which we do NOT have in Sarawak lah!

I was surprised by the naming of the star thingy too. Hmmm anyone can apply for one too I suppose? There are millions of stars out in the constellations, so there's enough for all ...
