Foreign tourists still think <b>Sarawak</b> safe - The Borneo Post Online Posted: 07 Aug 2014 11:58 AM PDT by Lian Cheng, reporters@theborneopost.com. Posted on August 8, 2014, Friday KUCHING: Foreign tourists are not perturbed by the senseless killings at Abell Road where two British medical students were stabbed to death after an alcohol-fuelled confrontation. Ferdi Urlings, 56 and Merle Urlings, 40, who were sitting right across the road from where the killings were committed, said they were not disturbed by the news as such incidents happened everywhere. "It happens in all cities. We are not worried or frightened. If it is your time, it is your time," said the Urlings. They said in Amsterdam, Holland, where they come from, stabbing happened almost every evening. Despite being pre-warned by their traveling agency back in Holland that when night fell, it could be quite dangerous for tourists, the Urlings still thought that Sarawak was a nice place. "We have been to Mulu, Miri, Sibu and now Kuching. The people here are nice, the environment is nice and the natural surrounding is nice." "This kind of incidences (killings) happen all over the world. Sometimes, things go well. Other times, bad things just happen. It is the same everywhere." Having a good long three weeks traveling across Sarawak, the Urlings who touched down in Sarawak on July 22 and are due to leave on Aug 9 said they would continue to recommend their friends back home to visit Sarawak. Meanwhile, Frans Larooi, 56, also from Holland and who happened to pass by the crime scene was not so optimistic. "To think that it happened so near our hotel is a bit frightening, coming to think of it," said Larooi who would be here for a week. After spending three weeks travelling to Langkawi, Penang and other places in Peninsular Malaysia, he still said Malaysia was generally quite a safe place. Josta de Lange who happened to meet Larooi because they stayed in the same hotel, though not worrying for her safety while travelling in Kuching, expressed regrets for the parents of the victims as well as parents of the suspects. "This is terrible and tragic. Not only parents of the victims will feel sad, the parents of the suspects are equally heart-broken," said de Lange. Bouquets of flowers as well as wreaths were seen placed at the crime scene yesterday. Sarawak Economic Development Corporation not only expressed their regrets through a wreath, it also held a vigil last night to pay respect to the two victims.

During the opening ceremony, Shin Yang Group of Companies' group executive chairman, James Ling Lu Kiong affirmed that the launch of its new four-star hotel targeted at business travellers was timely as Sarawak celebrates Visit Sarawak Year 2014 and Visit Malaysia Year 2014. The hotel's strategic location between the airport and the central business district (CBD) will certainly be an advantage to both business and leisure travellers, he added. "Imperial Hotel Kuching also has much to offer in the form of meetings, incentives, conferencing and exhibitions (MICE) facilities," he said during the launching ceremony yesterday. The event was graced by the Chief Minister, Tan Sri Datuk Amar (Dr) Adenan Satem and his wife as well as Deputy Chief Minister, Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri (Dr) Alfred Jabu Numpang.

"Kuching has really been transformed into a well-known MICE destination when our state government under the vision of our former Chief Minister, Tun Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud spearheaded the set up and established the Sarawak Convention Bureau (SCB) in 2006 and the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK) in 2009 to tap into this vast potential MICE market," he highlighted. The number of international conferences and conventions held in Kuching over the last few years, the latest being the Asean Tourism Forum 2014 in January and Routes Asia 2014 in March earlier this year were testimony to the enormous success of our state government's vision and efforts. Imperial Hotel Kuching aims to tap into this market by offering comprehensive MICE facilities including two ballrooms, nine multi-functional meeting rooms, extensive pre function foyer, VIP lounges and a covered outdoor terrace to suit conferences and events of different sizes and preferences. "Imperial Hotel Kuching's extensive conference and meeting facilities with a total floor area of 5,856 square metres equipped with the latest technological audio video equipment will most definitely support the state government's objective to make the city of Kuching and Sarawak the destination of choice not only for tourism but also for international conventions and events," James affirmed.
