Ng Yen Yen as Malaysia's New Tourism Minister 2009

There could not have been a better gift for Datuk Seri Dr Ng Yen Yen who celebrates her 63rd birthday today.

She has been given a new lease of life as Tourism Minister, from her previous portfolio as Women, Family and Community Develop­ment Minister.

Dr Ng, who will be sworn in today together with the rest of the Cabinet, pledged to give her all. “I will give my very best to ensure the tourism industry reaches its peak and will make Malaysia the best tourist destination in the world,’’ she declared proudly.

Dr Ng was speaking at the launch of the Pass It On Read-A-Book campaign organised by Napoleon Hill Associates Malaysia at a shopping complex here yesterday.

She was accompanied by husband Dr Chin Chee Sue, son Terence, daughter-in-law Trish Low and grandson Thomas.

Earlier, she was given a splendid welcome as she walked into the programme venue when the organiser broke the good news of her appointment to the audience.
