that will change the skyline of Kuching.

KUCHING: Kuching skyline is set to change with the construction of a 36-storey office tower in the prime area of Batu Lintang.

The proposed tower will beat the city's tallest building, the 22-storey Wisma Bapa Malaysia in Petra Jaya which now houses the Chief Minister's office, several ministries and the state secretariat.

The tower is part of Sarawak's biggest mixed-development project jointly undertaken by Naim Holdings Bhd with Lembaga Amanah Kebajikan Masjid Negeri Sarawak (LAKMNS) and Tabung Baitulmal Sarawak (TBS), both state charitable trusts.

Naim has a 70% stake in the joint venture while LAKMNS and TBS each holds a 15% equity interest. A memorandum of understanding (MoU) on the project was signed recently.

Naim managing director Datuk Hasmi Hasnan said other components of the 13.6ha project were a 27-storey apartment, 18-storey condominium, a second office-tower block, hotel tower, a four-storey shopping mall, a 17,000-sq-ft showroom and multi-storey car parks.

'We will incorporate a water theme park, roof garden and plenty of green areas to make the development environment friendly and one that the local population can enjoy,'' he added.

The project site was previously occupied by government quarters. The land has been cleared and earth-filling works was completed recently.

Hasmi said the project would be carried out in phases over 20 years, with the apartments to be built first. The apartment block will have 115 units and the condominium 216 units.

“For each phase, we will do in-depth study on market demand and supply to take cognition of any changes in the economic climate to ensure the project's success,'' he said.

Hasmi said the development was expected to create 2,000 jobs and would provide business opportunities to retailers and wholesalers.

Ucsi Cityisland Hotel – A Perfect Balance Of Business And Education
May 8th, 2011



Sarawak is constantly facing significant upgrades in infrastructure to attain its goal as a preferred MICE destination with a difference. New roads, new transportation hubs, cutting edge university campuses and collaborative programmes with international universities; road-widening schemes, new bridges, new shopping areas of international standards; high tech industrial parks and the opportunity for an ever-attractive lifestyle, all play a part in improving professional development and attracting investors from around the globe.

Here, a vast range of convention facilities, visitor activities and unique experiences are available to groups of all sizes.

Existing major hotels in Kuching, capital city of Sarawak, include the luxury 5-star Pullman Kuching, Four Points by Sheraton, Kuching Hilton, Tune Hotel, 360 Hotel, Lime Tree Hotel, Batik Boutique Hotel and many more. Another major new hotel in Kuching, UCSI CityIsland Hotel, is being set and will make its debut by late 2013.

UCSI University’s Sarawak campus’s main goal is to be theholistic education centre for hospitality and tourism in East Malaysia. As a special feature of the University, the hotel will provide the perfect training ground for students in all aspects of business tourism.

Currently under construction, the 5-star establishment is located at the isthmus of Kuching, right opposite the Borneo Convention Centre Kuching (BCCK); and will house 360 rooms, 6 F&B outlets and 4 kitchens.

Ms. Gracie Geikie, UCSI Communication Managing Director said, “Even though BCCK is still new, it’s just a matter of time before our MICE industry comes into fruition. Besides UCSI CityIsland Hotel, we have 2 other training hotels on the rise, which will deliver a comprehensive skilling process and fine-tune our students’ capabilities.”

The University has also established partnerships with several organisations in the industry, including Starwood Hotels and Resorts Worldwide, BCCK, the Sarawak Convention Bureau (SCB) and many more.

Mrs. Jill Henry, CEO of the Sarawak Convention Bureau said, “With 3 million visitors to Sarawak over the last year and the increase in hotels and B&Bs statewide, it is clear that we have a mushrooming tourism industry. We are extremely pleased to see more hotel developments in Sarawak. This will increase the room numbers we have to service delegates from around the world. With UCSI as a holistic education centre for hospitality and tourism, we are ensuring that Sarawak will improve its hospitality and tourism services to a greater level.”
