STB chairman Datuk Joniston Bangkuai and chief executive officer Noredah Othman attended the event to receive the award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is a boost for a state government agency recognised as the best among the many contenders, including those from other nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The state government has emphasised tourism, the importance of having exceptional management and team players within STB,” said Joniston, who is also the state\u2019s Assistant Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“This will not only assist in achieving the state’s development goal, but it will also ensure that the government has the best agency working towards targeted objectives,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Noredah said winning the award would motivate the STB team to continue doing their best in pushing state tourism to new heights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis demonstrates STB’s commitment to the industry, as well as the dedication of the staff to their work in it. To further establish Sabah as a preferred travel destination, Sabah Tourism will continue to explore new avenues for promotion and cooperation,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event also saw four travel and tour companies from Sabah receiving awards. They comprised Amazing Borneo Tours and Events (Leading Tour Operator – Inbound Borneo);  Borneo Calling Tour and Travel (Leading Adventure Tour Operator); D\u2019Seven Travel and Tours (Leading Travel Agency – Outbound Religious Pilgrimage); and Nadi Borneo Tours (Leading Tourism Transport Company – Land).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
