Collaborating with Huntwo Studios, STB crafted a captivating 5:45-minute video portraying Sabah’s diverse allure, encompassing urban exploration and nature’s wonders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video also showcases wildlife encounters, underwater marvels, a culinary paradise, cultural heritage, and the state\u2019s multiethnic communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assistant Tourism, Culture, and Environment Minister cum STB chairman Datuk Joniston Bangkuai accompanied by CEO Noredah Othman, received the award during the PATA Gold Awards Lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his remarks, Joniston highlighted the transformative power of STB’s promotional videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWinning such an award emphasises the need for STB to maintain its momentum and live up to expectations, showcasing our agency’s capable leadership and dedicated team in driving the state’s tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe board will persist in creating innovative and creative marketing and promotional efforts to showcase Sabah from every angle,\u201d he affirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joniston stressed that the board\u2019s mission is to exhibit the abundance Sabah has to offer, adding STB is actively engaged in creating video content with fresh perspectives to appeal to travellers across all categories, be it for leisure or business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, STB won Asia’s Leading Regional Tourist Board at the 30th Annual World Travel Awards in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It also won bronze for Best Communication of Social Media at the 4th ASEAN PR Excellence Awards with its “Fly Me To Sabah” campaign.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joniston led the STB delegation attending PATA Travel Mart to build valuable business connections with key players in the travel industry, fostering a deeper understanding of travel trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
