MATTA Fair in Penang

2 - 7 July 2009
Mary and I went to Penang for MATTA Fair.
We have a booth to man under Tourism Malaysia.
We took an early flight to Penang.
Settled into our hotel and attended a briefing by Tourism Malaysia.


We then proceeded to PISA to check on our booth.
And set up our booth.


This fair is officiated by Penang Chief Minister, YAB Tuan Lim Guan Eng.
What I praise about this dignitary is his punctuality.
He came on time, delivered his speech and visited all the booths then left.
All within the programme.

Since we are promoting Sabah, ada juga lah yang dropped by at the counter and tanya "Malacca?".
Doiii sudah lah besar poster kami taruh Sabah.

The best thing about Penang is the FOOD!!!!
You go anywhere mesti ada hawker stalls.
And it ranges from lok-lok to asam laksa to char kuay teow.





Our friends from the industry(semua Sabahan).

Mary and I love Thai food so we indulged ourselves at Siam Express.
Nyum nyum nyum!

The appertizer which Robin recommends

My kangkung belacan and tom yum soup (terbang telinga)
