The cooking sessions showcased local delicacies and allowed visitors to participate in the preparation and distribution of food, fostering a spirit of sharing and togetherness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ramadhan Mubarak Market was part of STB\u2019s ongoing effort to transform its Visitor Information Centres (VICs) into more than just tourism hubs. These spaces have evolved into vibrant cultural and social gathering points that bring communities together through meaningful experiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Previous events, such as the Twinkling Christmas Market, Lunar New Year Market: Spring in the City created the garden as a community space for both residents and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

STB CEO, Sharzede Datu Haji Salleh Askor, emphasised the significance of this initiative: \u201cThe Visitors\u2019 Information Centres in Miri and Sibu are more than just places for tourism information; they are spaces where people can come together to celebrate traditions,<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

connect through food and music. and be close to the community. The Ramadhan Mubarak Market was another step in our mission to make these VICs dynamic and community-driven.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
