Aside from my close working relationship with them since our time in Country Holidays over 20 years ago, across our network in Singapore, Hong Kong and China, we can look forward to reimagining travel for a new breed of modern explorers who search for immersive luxury holidays.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1994, he founded Country Holidays, which provided intrepid explorers with off-the-beaten-path hiking adventures in Nepal. It became one of Asia Pacific\u2019s leading travel companies. Country Holidays expanded with offices in Singapore, China, Hong Kong and Dubai. Following the firm&#8217;s acquisition in 2018, Theng Hwee oversaw operations in Scott Dunn Asia&#8217;s offices before taking a sabbatical in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having witnessed the rebound of tourism and how it has renewed interest and demand for luxury travel, Theng Hwee returns to Singapore\u2019s outbound luxury tourism market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SINGAPORE, 8 March 2023: Bespoke luxury travel designer Intriq Journey names Chang Theng Hwee as chairperson to leverage three decades of industry experience and drive product innovation.
