Hotel to promote Kuching as tourist and conference destination

PULLMAN Kuching will do its part to promote the state capital as a tourist and conference destination
“Kuching is a peaceful and interesting city with plenty of attractions to offer visitors,” says new general manager Eric Tan.
“We can help increase the tourism industry here in time to come. Part and parcel of my job will be to sell this destination and the hotel to the corporate and international markets,” he said at a cocktail reception and handover ceremony on Wednesday.

Tan, who took over from Fabrice Mini, said Pullman was working closely with the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) for this purpose.
“We’ll see how we can maximise our linkage to sell this location to visitors.”
He added that he would also continue to improve Pullman and present the hotel in a more strategic manner.
“We want to provide good value for our future clients in terms of services and the quality of our product.”
Tan joined Pullman Kuching six months ago after four years at Sofitel Vietnam. Both hotels are under the Accor Group.
Earlier, Mini thanked Pullman staff and tourism industry players for their support during his 20-month tenure.
“It’s been a challenging time but everything was possible because I believe in teamwork and recruiting the right people,” he said, adding that he hoped to visit Sarawak again in future.
