In his engaging welcome speech, the Global Upline Hotels & Resorts Group Advisor, Tan Sri Ting Pek Khiing, went down the memory lane, recalling how he came to our magical island 20 years ago, entrusted with the assignment to build within 100 days!!!

I attended the Langkawi hotel launch by Tun Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad to build the tourism activity in Kedah. The hotels’ unique natural surroundings, well-being embraces the ever-expanding healing found in the rainforest with its age-old traditions and philosophies of the Malay.

I have attended the discussion for the betterment on improving the tourism industry. This experience has made me understand what makes a hotel unique and what makes it stand out from your competition. This environment also helps me to understand how to make sure the hotel will be best in town for the niche area required.

I also understand how marketing tools were created to cater many information directories that lets the guest identify local listings across multiple business in the area and make sure all of your information is up to date.
