Wonders<br />
The country is a major tea exporter, a booming tourist attraction<br />
with ancient Buddhist stupas and majestic Hindu temples and<br />
home to a diverse community. In this issue of Convergence,<br />
we are placing our travel spotlight on Sri Lanka.<br />
A country that has been steadily growing and building itself from a civil<br />
war that ended in 2009, Sri Lanka should definitely be on any traveller's<br />
list. From the colder regions in Nuwara Eliya to the simpler farming towns<br />
in Jaffna to the coastal towns in Galle, the country offers something<br />
sweet, spicy or savoury that will resonate with a variety of taste buds.<br />
Step inside the land of Lanka on page 96!<br />
We would also like to take the opportunity to wish all Hindu readers<br />
an auspicious and blessed Happy Deepavali! The Festival of Lights falls<br />
on October 18 worldwide and is often celebrated with sugary sweets,<br />
fireworks and new clothing materials. Be a part of the celebration by<br />
being in the know of the culture's sweet delicacies and drop by a store<br />
or two here to satiate those sugar cravings! Read our list of 10 top Indian<br />
desserts on page 59 now!<br />
If you're looking for travel alternatives, soak in the sights at Southeast<br />
Asia's 'Pearl of the Orient' – Manila or try Russian beet soup while<br />
exploring Moscow! Do not forget to purchase the country's famed<br />
Matryoshka dolls as souvenirs too.<br />
For travel anecdotes and inspiration, read all about former Miss<br />
Malaysia and Miss World finalist, Deborah Henry's travel tales on page<br />

NARS BOUTIQUE IN COLOURS<br />
BEAUTY BOUTIQUE, KLIA<br />
In June <strong>2017</strong>, Shiseido Travel Retail opened the first NARS<br />
standalone boutique at KL International Airport (KLIA), in<br />
partnership with Colours & Fragrances, one of Malaysia’s pioneering<br />
beauty travel retailers.<br />
Shiseido Travel Retail General Manager for Asia Pacific, Kenji<br />
Calméjane said, "The introduction of NARS at KLIA marks a<br />
strategic new step for us in the dynamic Malaysian travel retail<br />
market as the brand continues to go from strength to strength in<br />
the Asia Pacific region. With three successful NARS boutiques in<br />
the Kuala Lumpur domestic market, the brand already has a<br />
tremendous fan base of ‘NARSissists’ who eagerly await every new<br />
release and limited-edition collection. We believe the new<br />
Traveller’s Exclusive NARSissist #Jetsetter will have significant<br />
appeal here and with the support of Colours & Fragrances we are<br />
able to offer an exceptional environment to experience the brand’s<br />
extensive assortment."<br />
Colours & Fragrances Operations Director, Datin Azah Bazid said,<br />
"With its bold colours, luxurious textures and edgy style, NARS<br />
Cosmetics is a refreshing addition to our portfolio of colour<br />
cosmetics brands. The opening of the stunning new boutique<br />
underlines our commitment to becoming a luxury beauty<br />
destination at KLIA and delivering a world-class airport shopping<br />

Beautiful Scents at<br />
Colours & Fragrances<br />
KLIA<br />
Indulge in Paco Rabanne's fresh-smouldering Oriental Pure XS,<br />
stay mysterious with Jean Paul Gaultier's Scandal or try floral<br />
notes with Prada's new fragrances.<br />
Paco Rabanne – Pure XS<br />
For the olfactory signature of Pure XS, Paco Rabanne<br />
called on the combined talents of two perfumers which<br />
are Anne Flipo, creator of the Lady Million fragrance<br />
and Caroline Dumur. The scent created by the both<br />
of them will have your skin shivering with desire and<br />
burning with pleasure in an olfactory expression.<br />
Pure XS is a vibrant, magnetic and fresh oriental with<br />
a permanent in-and-out between cold and hot, gentle<br />
and intense. Be prepared to have your senses go wild<br />
and the palate tingling with an overdose of ginger,<br />
green vegetal sap and ultra-masculine thyme. Apart<br />
from cinnamon, the scent also has a deep, noble vanilla<br />
infused with leather-liquor-musk inflections. Finally,<br />
the scent allows you to sink into the pulsing warmth<br />
of myrrh dusted with sugar.<br />

Experience<br />
Jean Paul Gaultier – Scandal<br />
Jean Paul Gaultier was the first who knew how to create a…<br />
Scandal. He put men in skirts: scandal! He had men and<br />
women from the streets, to the catwalks: scandal!<br />
The first Jean Paul Gaultier fragrance developed by Puig,<br />
Scandal is the perfect fragrance for a woman who is free and<br />
strong. Scandal is all about life.<br />
The heart of this fragrance is about life. In the daytime, it is a<br />
gourmand, fresh honey that smells like Gardenia and Blood<br />
Orange, almost childhood. At night it is a sensual and seductive<br />
honey blended with patchouli. The Gaultier bottles were<br />
busts; here are the legs! This pair of legs reminds us with what<br />
gaiety one drowns in Paris and at night.<br />
Prada<br />
Currently exclusively available at duty-free stores here, the La Femme Prada L’Eau and L’Homme<br />
Prada L’Eau explore a new freshness, seen through the transformative gaze of Prada<br />
La Femme Prada L’Eau<br />
The fragrance for La Femme Prada L’Eau begins with<br />
green frangipani flower enriched by mandarin essence<br />
and smoothed by ylang ylang notes. The result is an<br />
airy mix, which is enhanced and given depth by the<br />
addition of tuberose.<br />
L’Homme Prada L’Eau<br />
For L’Homme Prada L’Eau, amber and iris mingle<br />
with red ginger and neroli. The floral note is modified<br />
and prolonged to enhance the sensation of freshness,<br />
while cedar and powdered notes are tempered<br />
through the addition of a sensual background of<br />
sandalwood.<br />

Malaysia Airports treated 25 lucky<br />
passengers who spent a minimum of<br />
RM500 at KLIA and klia2 during the KUL<br />
Dad campaign by offering them a ride in<br />
a Lamborghini and other supercars at the<br />
Sepang International Circuit, recently.<br />
Malaysia Airports Senior General<br />
Manager of Commercial Services,<br />
Mohammad Nazli Abdul Aziz said, "We<br />
recorded a 32% cumulative growth from<br />
the participating outlets from both<br />
terminals during the one-month campaign<br />
period, an encouraging sign considering<br />
that we have multiple other promotional<br />
campaigns running concurrently."<br />
Nazli added that the duty free category<br />
was the highest performer for the 25th<br />
Anniversary campaign, with all players<br />
recording a positive and consistent<br />
growth. Eraman, a wholly-own subsidiary<br />
of Malaysia Airports, contributed at least<br />
30% to the total retail sales, followed by<br />
Perfume & Cosmetics Dimensi Ekslusif<br />
and The ZON Duty Free.<br />
The campaign was also an effort to<br />
continue driving commercial revenue and<br />
average spend per passenger, aligned<br />
with the airport operator’s Total Airport<br />
Experience (TAE) mission in creating a<br />
fulfilling airport experience for its<br />
passengers, retailers and airlines. The TAE<br />
is one of the strategic pillars in Malaysia<br />
Airports' five-year business plan, Runway<br />
to Success 2020 (RTS2020), to increase<br />
non-aeronautical revenue growth.<br />
Nazli said, "Our primary objective is<br />
creating a memorable joyful experience<br />
for our stakeholders including initiatives<br />
that enhance passenger comfort like better<br />
Wi-Fi coverage and maximising shopping<br />
experience through marketing campaigns."<br />
The Lamborghini joy ride is a continuation<br />
of the partnership between Malaysia<br />
Airports and Lamborghini Kuala Lumpur<br />
for its 25th Anniversary campaign with<br />
passengers standing a chance to win the<br />
Lamborghini Huracán Spyder grand prize<br />
and other destination prizes worth<br />

Marvel<br />
At<br />
Manila<br />
The moniker 'Pearl of the<br />
Orient' refers to the state of<br />
Penang in Malaysia. But, if<br />
that same moniker is applied<br />
within Southeast Asia, it is<br />
also commonly associated<br />
with Manila, capital city of the<br />
Philippines. Home to almost<br />
two million inhabitants, the<br />
city is home to Spanish<br />
architecture which are<br />
remnants from the days it was<br />
under the Spanish empire,<br />
houses the world's oldest<br />
Chinatown known as Binondo<br />
and has an interesting eye for<br />
food with chicken intestines<br />
and duck embryos considered<br />
as delectable delights.<br />
José Rizal's remains are enshrined<br />
in this monument at Rizal Park<br />
Fort Santiago<br />
San Agustin Church<br />
Day 1<br />
Rizal Park<br />
A hot spot for history lovers, this park was built as homage<br />
to the country's national hero, José Rizal. The park is<br />
situated by the Manila Bay and has witnessed several<br />
historic moments and incidences that have impacted<br />
the country's history. On 30 December 1896, the country's<br />
patriot, José Rizal was executed at the park and this led<br />
to the 1896 Philippine Revolution against the Kingdom<br />
of Spain. The area was renamed Rizal Park in his honour<br />
and his remains have been enshrined in the monument<br />
which is a focal point at the park.<br />
Intramuros<br />
The word 'Intramuros' is Spanish for 'within the walls' and this area is now referred to as Old<br />
Manila. During the Spanish and American colonial reign in the Philippines, this area was at the<br />
core of all activities. Today, ruins and remnants of that era remains through rehabilitation efforts<br />
and one of the best ways to see this area is via a horse-drawn kalesa (carriage). If you wish to learn<br />
more about the heritage, history and culture, enlist in a walking tour with a professional guide.<br />
• Fort Santiago<br />
Within Intramuros, a must-visit is Fort Santiago. A citadel built by Spanish conquistador,<br />
Miguel López de Legazpi, this fort was a prison that even housed José Rizal during his final<br />
days before execution. During the Spanish Colonial period and World War II, many lives<br />
were lost in this fort. Apart from the Spaniards, the fort was occupied by the British, Americans<br />
and the Japanese.<br />
• San Agustin Church<br />
This Roman Catholic church is a National Historic Landmark and a United Nations Educational,<br />
Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) World Heritage site. The church was completed<br />
in 1571 but over the years, it has undergone several renovations and refurbishments to the current<br />
building it is today. Having been the first church built in Manila after the Spanish conquest of<br />
the city, the church has intricate Baroque era designs as well as choir seats carved in molave with<br />
ivory inlays of the 17th century and a set of 16 huge and beautiful chandeliers from Paris, France.<br />

Day 2<br />
National Museum<br />
The National Museum was originally<br />
meant to be a public library when it was<br />
designed in 1918 but it was used and<br />
known as the Old Legislative Building<br />
until the war. The Legislative Building<br />
was a casualty during the bombing and<br />
shelling of Manila in 1945 and post-war.<br />
It was reconstructed and became the<br />
National Museum in 2003.<br />
Binondo<br />
As the world's oldest Chinatown, it was<br />
established in 1594 by the Spaniards for<br />
the Catholic Chinese community and<br />
was located near Intramuros. The<br />
location was due to the fact that colonial<br />
rulers always wanted to keep their<br />
migrant workers within a close and<br />
observable distance. It was once a<br />
revered centre of trade and commerce<br />
but after World War II, most companies<br />
relocated to the new central business<br />
district, Makati.<br />

Moscow<br />
More Than Matryoshka<br />
Matryoshka dolls<br />
The world's largest country, Russia is home to over 144 million people. Its capital, Moscow, is home<br />
to over 13 million inhabitants. This includes a majority of Russians followed by Tatars, Ukrainians as<br />
well as Armenians. Here are our recommendations on a place bustling with diverse cultures and<br />
lifestyles; on where to go and what to do, especially in Moscow as the city has so much more to offer<br />
than its intriguing yet mysterious and most popular souvenir which are its nesting dolls, Matryoshka.<br />
WHAT TO DO?<br />
Red Square<br />
One of the world's most famous<br />
public squares, the Red Square<br />
is considered the symbolic<br />
centre of Russia. Once the site<br />
for public executions and<br />
official military parades by the<br />
Soviet Union armed forces,<br />
today the square is a large cry<br />
from its history. The Red Square<br />
is bordered by the GUM<br />
shopping mall on the east, St<br />
Basil's Cathedral on the south,<br />
the State Historical Museum on<br />
the north and Lenin's<br />
Mausoleum on the west.<br />
52
St Basil's Cathedral<br />
Travel<br />
Quite possibly an image which is well-known across the world, it is impossible<br />
to miss the onion-shaped domes of the nine different chapels that form this<br />
cathedral which was commissioned by Ivan the Terrible and consecrated in<br />
1561. The building's exterior is uniquely decorated in colours, shapes and<br />
patterns that clash into a whimsical appearance and proves to be a hit among<br />
both adults and children. Inside the building, the chapel rooms are filled with<br />
historical artefacts, decorated walls and ceilings and impressive iconostases.<br />
Ivan The Great<br />
Bell Tower<br />
This bell tower reportedly<br />
marks the exact centre of<br />
Moscow and resembles<br />
a burning candle. The<br />
bell tower was the tallest<br />
structure in the city until<br />
the Russian Revolution as<br />
construction of buildings<br />
taller than 81 metres (266<br />
feet) high was forbidden.<br />
The tower was completed<br />
in 1600 and has over<br />
20 bells.<br />
Russian Museum<br />
A treasury of Russian art, the museum is housed in the Mikhailovsky Palace which was once a<br />
palace belonging to Grand Duke Mikhail. It was opened in 1895 and was the first state-owned<br />
museum of art in Russia. A notable art museum apart from the famous Tretyakov Gallery, this<br />
museum has over 400,000 exhibits that date from ancient icons to avant garde paintings.<br />
Lenin's Mausoleum<br />
Vladimir Lenin was the founder of the Russian Communist Party,<br />
leader of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and the architect, builder<br />
and first head of the Soviet Union. Immediately after his death in<br />
1924, a wooden mausoleum was erected to pay homage to him<br />
at the square. Five years later, an architect was ordered to design<br />
a more lasting home for him and the structure you see today has<br />
layers of red, grey and black granite that harmonise with the Kremlin<br />
buildings behind it, despite its clear Constructivist influences.<br />
The Kremlin<br />
A fortified complex, the Kremlin includes five<br />
palaces, four cathedrals and the enclosing<br />
Kremlin Wall with Kremlin towers. The complex<br />
also houses the Grand Kremlin Palace and<br />
serves as the official residence of the President<br />
of the Russian Federation.<br />
Gorky Park<br />
Named after a famous Russian and Soviet writer, Maxim Gorky, the<br />
park is divided into two parts. The first part usually hits a home run<br />
among children as it contains fun rides, roller coasters, bungee jumping,<br />
tennis courts and if it is winter, the area becomes a huge skating rink.<br />
The second part of the park has gardens and fine old building steeped<br />
in history. During the summer, the park is usually a popular venue for<br />
concerts and gigs.<br />

WHAT TO EAT?<br />
Russian food isn't about boiled<br />
cabbage and meat if that is what<br />
you're thinking. On the contrary, the<br />
cuisine is diverse with influences<br />
from Northern and Central Europe<br />
and the Middle East. If you're a<br />
foodie, try the beef stroganoff which<br />
are sautéed pieces of beef served<br />
in a sauce with sour cream. If you're<br />
looking for something lighter or as<br />
a snack, pirozhkis are meat pies that<br />
are either baked or fried. The pies<br />
are small enough to be held in your<br />
hand and either stuffed with savoury<br />
or sweet fillings. A similar food to<br />
the pirozhkis is the pelmenis which<br />
are meat dumplings. Pelmenis are<br />
made with flour, salt, water and eggs<br />
and later filled with meat and boiled.<br />
The boiled meat dumplings are<br />
often served with a generous dollop<br />
of sour cream.<br />
Vegetarians should definitely try the<br />
borscht as it is a hugely popular<br />
traditional beet soup that is served<br />
both hot and cold. The soup is<br />
primarily made with beet and other<br />
vegetables which include carrots,<br />
leeks and cabbage. The nonvegetarian<br />
has chicken broth or even<br />
bacon for added flavour. For<br />
something sweet, try a blini which<br />
are thin pancakes made from wheat<br />
and it comes as no surprise that it is<br />
served with sour cream.<br />

Warrior<br />
Forts and Oil<br />
Rig Hotels<br />
Forts were built during troubled times as a place to seek refuge and defend what was rightfullyowned<br />
within respective territories while oil rigs were built as a platform to drill, extract and<br />
process oil and natural gas. However, as time passes, the functionality of these places ceased to<br />
exist simply because there was no reason for such places to continue functioning. But, instead of<br />
abandoning these buildings and allowing time, money and resources go to waste, people have<br />
found that it is better to re-use these places for something else... as a holiday stay!<br />
Alila Fort Bishangarh<br />
Jaipur, Rajasthan, India<br />
Perched magnificently upon a granite<br />
hill, this historic landmark is a unique<br />
example of Jaipur Gharana<br />
architecture, influenced by both the<br />
Mughals and the British. The fort has<br />
been given much care in terms of<br />
ecological restoration with the resort<br />
still featuring the fort’s original twometre-thick<br />
walls and its battlement<br />
turrets and arches. The resort is built<br />
inside the 230-year-old Fort Bishangarh,<br />
which is quite frankly the kind of place<br />
where you expect to find a hidden<br />
trapdoor or a spiral staircase leading<br />
to a secret lair! So, if you're looking<br />
for something bold and striking, stay<br />
at this fort which also gives you<br />
360-degree views of the impressive<br />
Rajasthani landscape.<br />

Fort Burt Hotel<br />
Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin<br />
Islands<br />
During the 17th century, a fort was built by the Dutch<br />
to fend off conquerors clamouring over Tortola. It<br />
was the first of many forts to be built in the surrounding<br />
areas. Over the years, the fort lost its initial purposes<br />
and was slowly reconstructed into a hotel without<br />
compromising its rustic past. Located in the capital,<br />
Road Town, Fort Burt Hotel offers standard and deluxe<br />
rooms, as well as suites with private pools that come<br />
with breathtaking views.<br />
Fortaleza do Guincho<br />
Cascais, Portugal<br />
A small hotel built inside an old fort perched on a cliff<br />
overlooking the crashing waves of the sea. Does this<br />
sound like the getaway you need? The Fortaleza is in<br />
an unspoilt and very rugged costal area. The crashing<br />
waves of the Atlantic Ocean are your constant<br />
background noise. What is better for relaxation than<br />
the rhythmic effect of the waves? Take a relaxing walk<br />
on the beach, sleep and eat like a king who has just<br />

All cabins are serviced daily<br />
with fresh towels and bedding<br />

Kasbah du Toubkal<br />
Imlil, Morocco<br />
It was the home of the local Moroccan chief Caid<br />
Souktani when Morocco was a French protectorate.<br />
But when Morocco gained independence in 1956,<br />
the Caid left the country and the Kasbah (citadel)<br />
fell into ruin. This was when two British brothers who<br />
often trekked in Imlil decided to turn what was left<br />
of the place into sustainable accommodation that<br />
benefitted both tourists and the local Berber people.<br />
The process was long and complicated but the first<br />
stage of the Kasbah was completed in 1995. Today,<br />
tourists are able to ride on mules to the Kasbah, go<br />
on mountain trekking expeditions, eat local Berber<br />
food and get a first-hand taste of Berber hospitality.<br />

10 Sugary Sweets for<br />
Deepavali!<br />
Consuming something sweet before or after meals, offering it to the gods, presenting<br />
it as a token of appreciation at birthdays, weddings and other joyous festivities is<br />
something that has been observed by people from all over the world. During the<br />
celebration of Deepavali, food shelves will be lined with colourful sweet treats while<br />
the smell of sugar and ghee will fill the air at home, especially when you've got parents<br />
or grandparents who love to spoil you silly with sugary snacks. But, if you don't get to<br />
have homemade sweets, here's a list of sweets you could buy at your nearest stores!<br />
59
Food Indulgence<br />
Jalebi<br />
Pronounced 'jah-lay-bee'. These bright<br />
orange, web-shaped snacks are similar<br />
to funnel cakes and are a show stopper<br />
both visually and gastronomically.<br />
Jalebis are made with maida flour, a<br />
finely milled wheat flour and Bengal<br />
gram flour, a flour milled from<br />
chickpeas. Once it has been deep-fried,<br />
the sweet is generously coated in sugar<br />
syrup causing a very sticky situation<br />
should you get your hands on one!<br />
Jalebi<br />
Laddu<br />
Pronounced 'lat-doo'. In Indian<br />
culture, nothing depicts sweetness<br />
better than a laddu. If it is a happy<br />
and momentous occasion, laddu is<br />
the first thing you will get to lay your<br />
hands on. The snack comes in many<br />
variations but it generally has gram<br />
flour, semolina, sugar, ghee and nuts<br />
among other ingredients.<br />
Halwa<br />
Pronounced 'al-wah'. This is another<br />
bright orange snack with a more softer<br />
consistency. Over the years, recipes<br />
to create the perfect halwa have<br />
changed into healthier options<br />
replacing semolina with carrots,<br />
pumpkin, bottle gourd or oats. But,<br />
we say you should go original or go<br />
home! Try the halwa just like how it<br />
was intended to be with lots of sugar,<br />
ghee, milk, dried fruits and nuts!<br />
Laddu<br />
Halwa<br />
Adhirasam<br />
Pronounced 'ah-tee-ra-sum'. This<br />
doughnut-like pastry also resembles a<br />
doughnut. However, it's almost always<br />
brown in colour and doesn't come with<br />
any sprinkles, unfortunately. Jaggery<br />
and rice flour are main ingredients while<br />
ghee and cardamom adds a distinct<br />
flavour profile to this deep-fried snack.<br />
Sippi<br />
Pronounced 'sip-pee'. This snack is<br />
also known as Kulkuls. Sugar, semolina<br />
and maida are ingredients you often<br />
associate with this sweet. The best<br />
part about eating these 20 sen coinshaped<br />
snacks is when it has been<br />
doused in sugar syrup after being<br />
deep-fried. If you're looking for<br />
something with a hint of heat, there<br />
are spicy alternatives too.<br />

Coconut Candy<br />
Coconut Candy<br />
Coconut candies are often made using<br />
the brightest of colours and you will see<br />
hot pink, apple green or even a<br />
combination of colours on your candy.<br />
It's edible food colouring, so don't go<br />
ringing the health alarm. The main<br />
ingredient? Coconut! Toasted coconut<br />
flakes, sugar, milk and condensed milk<br />
are the usual suspects in this snack.<br />
Palkova<br />
Palkova<br />
Pronounced 'paal-kova'. The Tamil word<br />
'paal' already denotes its main ingredient<br />
which is milk. The sweet is basically a<br />
thickened and sweetened milk delight.<br />
Milk is brought to a boil and thickened<br />
before sugar is added. Cardamom and<br />
nuts are optional.<br />
Gulab Jamun<br />
Pronounced 'goo-lub ja-moon'. A milksolid<br />
based sweet, this berry-sized balls<br />
are deep-fried and left to soak in roseflavoured<br />
sugar syrup giving it a spongy<br />
feel. It is a famous snack in India,<br />
Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh.<br />
Gulab Jamun<br />
Payasam<br />
Payasam is a rice pudding made by<br />
boiling rice, broken wheat, tapioca or<br />
vermicelli with milk and sugar. It is<br />
flavoured with nuts and spices which<br />
include cardamom, raisins, saffron,<br />
cashews, pistachios or almonds. Scoop<br />
the syrupy goodness that often comes<br />
in yellow, brown or white variants. The<br />
colour variation stems from the type of<br />
sugar or lentils used in the dessert.<br />
Payasam<br />
Kesari<br />
Kesari is a sweet South Indian dessert<br />
made with semolina, ghee, dry fruits<br />
and saffron. If you prefer homemade<br />
desserts over store-bought, pre-packed<br />
kesari mixes are widely available in<br />
supermarkets or specialised Asian<br />
stores. All you need is several extra<br />
ingredients and you're good to go!<br />

Confessions of<br />
a Travelholic<br />
Catching the breeze at Mykonos, Greece<br />
Deborah Henry<br />
Being a former Miss Malaysia, Miss World<br />
finalist and the co-founder of Fugee School<br />
which is a refugee school for children, the<br />
almost 6-foot Deborah is no stranger to<br />
both local and international audiences. On<br />
top of that, the Dublin-born lass is a<br />
television host, emcee and model with a<br />
penchant for travelling! In this issue of<br />
Convergence, Deborah lets us in on her<br />
travel tales and how it has moulded her<br />
into the person she is today.<br />
}How frequently do you<br />
travel abroad and<br />
what notable are destinations?<br />
some of the<br />
I am a mixed kid, or 'rojak' as we call<br />
it in Malaysia. My father is Malaysian<br />
and my mother is Irish, I was born in<br />
Dublin, Ireland but Malaysia has always<br />
been home. My father also happens<br />
to be a pilot with Malaysia Airlines so<br />
family outings were hopping on an<br />
airplane and flying back to Ireland or<br />
somewhere else. I’ve grown up with a<br />
love for airplanes and travelling. I have<br />
always felt a ball of excitement within<br />
me as I descend into a new city.<br />
Over the past 15 years, my work in the<br />
entertainment industry has taken me to<br />
some very beautiful and eye-opening<br />
places. I represented Malaysia at the<br />
Miss Universe pageant in Sao Paolo,<br />
Brazil and did a Kingfisher calendar<br />
shoot in Capetown, South Africa. My<br />
work with World Vision Organisation<br />
has given me the privilege to visit<br />
marginalised communities in small<br />
Indian villages, in Myanmar before the<br />
country started opening up and in the<br />
Bekaa Valley in Lebanon.<br />
66<br />
Plus travelling is a favourite hobby, I<br />
have ushered in the New Year at the<br />
Sydney Harbour on a boat watching<br />
spectacular fireworks, spent Christmas<br />
Day zipping through the Swiss mountain<br />
range on the Glacier Express, Istanbul<br />
is a stunning city favourite and closer to<br />
home I loved visiting the temple ruins<br />
of Bagan at Myanmar and Siem Reap<br />
at Cambodia.<br />
Besides Malaysia,<br />
where else do you<br />
consider home?<br />
I was lucky to call Perth and Dublin home<br />
away from home when growing up. My<br />
fondest childhood memories were<br />
made in these two cities. My father’s<br />
sister lives in Perth so we spent most<br />
Christmases there with my cousins and<br />
every summer was spent with my mum’s<br />
family in Ireland, we hung out with our<br />
cousins and neighbourhood friends at<br />
the parks and went to the local chipper<br />
(fish and chips shop).<br />
Life is a little different today, I don’t go<br />
back to these cities as much, but home<br />
still remains a place with wonderful<br />
memories of friends and family.<br />
At a bridge in Bhutan filled with prayer flags<br />
Have you travelled to<br />
a new destination<br />
recently which you<br />
really enjoyed and<br />
would like to revisit<br />
soon?<br />
I visited Istanbul briefly last year and<br />
it’s such a magical city, I fell in love<br />
with the old charm against the modern<br />
infrastructure. I didn’t get the chance to<br />
explore the city and I definitely want to<br />
return and visit greater Turkey.
What do you love most<br />
about travelling and<br />
what has globetrotting<br />
taught you?<br />
"Travel far enough. You meet yourself."<br />
To me travelling is a journey of discovery,<br />
to discover food, culture, ways of life,<br />
fashion and myself. I see that the world<br />
isn’t a scary place and what I do not know<br />
I shouldn’t fear. The more I see, the more<br />
people I meet, the more I am fascinated<br />
and enticed by her (the world) charm.<br />
The Italians say "la dolce vita" meaning<br />
the sweet life. One must always try to<br />
live life to its fullest and always be happy.<br />
Which country do you<br />
really want to visit in<br />
the near future?<br />
I have a never-ending list of places I want<br />
to visit. An Alaskan cruise and Machu<br />
Picchu hike are at the top of the list.<br />
What's in your travel<br />
kit?<br />
Lip balm, blusher for an essential glow,<br />
Caudalie face mist for that pick-me-up<br />
and Tea Bird tea sachets especially the<br />
hibiscus and colon cleanse blends. I love<br />
travelling with a scarf. It’s a multi functional<br />
item that keeps me warm and acts as a<br />
pillow. Music is a must, so headphones<br />
that plug in to my Spotify playlists.<br />
What services and<br />
facilities do you find<br />
most appealing at KLIA<br />
and klia2?<br />
I like the outdoor rainforest area at KLIA,<br />
I think it is such a clever way to introduce<br />
Malaysia to transit passengers. At klia2,<br />
it has a great range of retails shops, food<br />
outlets and a full range supermarket<br />
which is pretty awesome. If you’re on a<br />
long transit, klia2 is the place you want<br />
to be.<br />
What is your preboarding<br />
habit?<br />
For some strange reason, I always pay a<br />
visit to the pharmacy and buy something<br />
I don’t really need. Haha! I’ll buy lip<br />
balm, mints and hand sanitiser. If I don’t<br />
have a book, I will grab one and together<br />
with a cappuccino in hand, I slowly make<br />
my way to the boarding gate.<br />
Tell us more about one<br />
exciting project you<br />
are currently working<br />
on.<br />
While I am probably most known as<br />
a former beauty queen and model,<br />
I spend a lot more of my time doing<br />
humanitarian work related to children's<br />
rights, education and women<br />
empowerment initiatives.<br />
I have spent the past nine years<br />
managing a non-profit refugee school<br />
called Fugee School. We educate<br />
over 150 children of ages 4 to 20 from<br />
Somalia, Syria, Yemen, Pakistan and<br />
Palestine.<br />
At the very heart of Fugee School,<br />
we have one philosophy that drives<br />
everything we do and that is, 'No<br />
Child Gets Left Behind'. We believe<br />
that every child; whether a Malaysian<br />
citizen, refugee or stateless, has the<br />
basic right to an education. Over the<br />
years, we have seen lives transformed<br />
and destinies changed as students are<br />
empowered with the right academic and<br />
life skills to reach their full potential. We<br />
do what it takes because we want to<br />
see every Fugee student be given<br />
~<br />
every<br />
opportunity possible to succeed in life.<br />

Lojing Highlands<br />
The word ‘Lojing’ is derived from the<br />
English word 'lodge' and it is said that<br />
the place may have gotten its name from<br />

Taking your pre-wedding or wedding photos overseas either in front of famous buildings or nature's<br />
majestic creations will definitely add more zing to your special day. Did you take your wedding pictures<br />
in a different country? Are you going to get married and would like to do the same? Here are several<br />
recommendations should you wish to capture your magical moment at an equally magical place!<br />
Prague, Czech Republic<br />
A bridge that was completed in the<br />
15th century in this city is a popular postcard<br />
picture for pretty much any sort of occasion.<br />
Naturally, the Charles Bridge is a strong<br />
contender in a list of possible destination<br />
photo shoots. The image that is captured<br />
does not even require the slightest bit of<br />
editing from any photo editing software.<br />
Just see or visit the place for yourself, but<br />
be prepared to wake up at 5am for that<br />
desired shot above the Prague city skyline.<br />

Travel<br />
Vienna, Austria<br />
In Vienna, the architecture<br />
of both the traditional and<br />
modern buildings harmoniously<br />
coexist creating a much revered<br />
and historic place for all to enjoy.<br />
In this city, historic buildings and<br />
contemporary structures blend<br />
together to create an impressive,<br />
inimitable cityscape. A good<br />
example of this is the Gothic St.<br />
Stephen’s Cathedral, which<br />
directly faces the modern, glassand-steel<br />
Haas Haus building.<br />
Then there is the Wiener<br />
Rasthaus which is the city hall of<br />
Vienna and exudes Neo-Gothic<br />
architecture. Snap your<br />
memories and take a piece of<br />
history with you, forever.<br />
Schwangau,<br />
Germany<br />
What drew the inspiration for Disney's<br />
Sleeping Beauty's castle? The<br />
Neuschwanstein Castle in<br />
Schwangau. Although photography<br />
isn't allowed inside the castle, there's<br />
plenty of angles and spots to take on<br />
the outside! One of the palaces that<br />
was commissioned by Bavarian King<br />
Ludwig II, this 19th century castle was<br />
opened in 1886 shortly after Ludwig's<br />
death and he never got to see his<br />
castle in its completed state.<br />
Budapest,<br />
Hungary<br />
The Danube River is a<br />
striking feature in this city.<br />
After all, it connects<br />
Hungary with nine other<br />
countries and is the second<br />
longest river in Europe. The<br />
river originates from the<br />
Black Forest in Germany<br />
and finally empties out into<br />
the Black Sea after passing<br />
though numerous towns<br />
and cities. Take a romantic<br />
boat ride and have your<br />
pictures taken while you're<br />
cruising through the river!<br />

welcoming more than 8.2 million visitors<br />

2,000 performances attended by more<br />
than 1.5 million people. Just make sure<br />
you don't have random people photobombing<br />
quite possibly the most<br />
important picture of your life.<br />
Northern Ireland,<br />
United Kingdom<br />
Are both of you ardent fans of the hit<br />
TV series, Game of Thrones? If that was<br />
a resounding yes, why not get your<br />
pictures taken at places that filmed the<br />
series? Northern Ireland is home to<br />
several Game of Thrones filming<br />
locations and one such nature's stunner<br />
is the Dark Hedges, a haunting avenue<br />
of serpentine beech trees near Armoy,<br />
County Antrim. In the series, it became<br />
Kingsroad, where Arya Stark disguised<br />
herself as a boy to avoid capture.<br />
Another location is the Glenariff which<br />
is a plunging valley surrounded by<br />
stunning waterfalls, walking trails and<br />
houses the Glenariff Forest Park. In the<br />
series, it served as the practice ground<br />
at Runestone in the Vale of Arryn, where<br />
Littlefinger and Sansa Stark watched<br />
Robin Arryn’s attempt at duelling.<br />
Uttar Pradesh, India<br />
Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan built<br />
the mausoleum as an act of love for his<br />
favourite wife, Mumtaz and this<br />
recognition is a formidable creation that<br />
has astounded and awed many people<br />
around the world because if you have<br />
not heard of the magnificent Taj Mahal,<br />
we suggest you should leave the house<br />
more often. Kidding! A UNESCO World<br />
Heritage site, this 'wonder of the world'<br />
was described as "the tear drop on the<br />

interesting seaside rock formations on<br />
which to perch and enjoy the miles of<br />
blue, while Penarik tears you in two with<br />
the river wetlands on one side and<br />
gorgeous beach on the other and the<br />
shade of casuarinas and coconut palms<br />
in between the two.<br />
The long Terengganu coastline may be<br />
inviting but beware of the strong undercurrents<br />
in certain places. Instead, bask<br />
on a lazy chair and munch on 'keropok<br />
lekor' as you take in the views of the<br />
nearby islands and listen to the waves<br />
breaking on the shore.<br />
Participate in<br />
squid jigging<br />
Fancy catching your own live squids and<br />
later cooking them on a boat to be<br />
enjoyed fresh from the sea? Well,<br />
participate in a famous night activity<br />
known as squid jigging.<br />
The activity requires a boat ride to a<br />
squid jigging location which usually<br />
takes an hour from the jetty. At the<br />
location, the guide – who is a local<br />
fisherman – will guide you on how to do<br />
squid jigging using the gears prepared<br />
by the fishermen.<br />
Get jiggy with sea creatures!<br />
Play with fishes at the Kelah Fish Sanctuary at<br />
Kenyir Lake!<br />
MALAYSIA'S LARGEST MAN-MADE LAKE<br />
Kenyir Lake may have been man-made but the serenity and peacefulness that exudes<br />
from the lake is purely natural. The place is also home to 340 islands borne out of<br />
hill tops when the valleys were filled with water during the Kenyir Dam construction.<br />
At Kenyir, explore the birds and bees, fish breeding, ancient caves and take in<br />
the greenery as far as your eyes can see! An eco-tourist must visit, Kenyir Lake<br />
will not fail to disappoint.<br />
Meanwhile, the Kenyir Elephant Conservation Village is a trans-location camp for<br />
wild elephants from the forest to ensure that it continues to breed in a safe<br />
environment and away from poachers and natural predators. Feed, bathe or play<br />
with the gentle giants while you're there!<br />

Did you know that a songket fabric goes<br />
through eight complicated steps and takes<br />
almost three months to complete?<br />
The Crystal Mosque is an iconic<br />
landmark in Terengganu.<br />
Learn about songket<br />
The Tuanku Nur Zahirah Complex was<br />
established for one main reason, which is to<br />
maintain the heritage of songket, the exquisite<br />
fabric consisting of intricate patterns that are<br />
woven by hand using mainly gold and silver<br />
threads.<br />
Songket actually can’t be easily woven and very<br />
few people have the knowledge, experience<br />
and skills to weave this remarkable fabric. Thus,<br />
to ensure the continuation of this craft, the<br />
Tuanku Nur Zahirah Complex offers courses for<br />
the younger generation to learn songket<br />
weaving and conduct programmes to preserve<br />
the songket as part of Terengganu heritage.<br />
A songket fabric goes through eight complicated<br />
steps and takes about two to three months,<br />
depending on the design, before it is completed<br />
and ready to be worn. Hence, it is not surprising<br />
that songket can fetch up to RM40,000 a piece!<br />
If you would like to purchase songket, visit Pasar<br />
Payang, Noor Arfa Craft Complex or songket<br />
shops around Kuala Terengganu. However, be<br />
cautious while shopping as some stores may<br />
sell imitation pieces from Pakistan and India.<br />
VISIT STATE CAPITAL — KUALA TERENGGANU<br />
Kuala Terengganu is a modern waterfront city that constantly undergoes development<br />
yet recognises the importance of preserving its rich historical past.<br />
Take a walk around the city and it is easy to spot older buildings next to modern<br />
and futuristic buildings, harmoniously existing side by side.<br />
Other attractions within this city include the Islamic Civilisation Park which portrays<br />
replicas of 22 significant monuments that contribute greatly towards the advancement<br />
of Islam.<br />
From the Park, take a river cruise along the scenic Terengganu river while stopping<br />
over at the State Museum and other interesting attractions along the river during<br />
the hour long journey that includes cruising around Pulau Duyung, visiting the scenic<br />
traditional fishing village of Seberang Takir as well as stopping by at Payang Market.<br />
The cruise starts and ends at the jetty near the iconic Crystal Mosque.<br />
Or choose to take a leisurely stroll along Kampung Cina or Chinatown and discover<br />
its Peranakan heritage in interesting alleyways with modern street art, new cafes<br />
and old abandoned homes. Don't forget to pay the Noor Arfa Craft Complex a visit<br />
since it is after all, the largest batik producer in the country.<br />
Eat and shop at Pasar Payang<br />
Before leaving Terengganu, Pasar Payang (Payang Market) is a must-visit. Food<br />
lovers will find Pasar Payang as a gastronomic haven. Travellers are welcomed by<br />
arrays of sweet delicacies and local food as they step into the market. With the<br />
delicious aroma of the local fare, travellers tend to walk out of the market a kilogramme<br />
heavier after feting over them. Besides, shopaholics should also take the opportunity<br />
to shop at Pasar Payang till they drop! Ladies are bound to go on a crazy shopping<br />
spree with all the affordable high-end batik, songket and many other products<br />
offered here. Situated in the city centre, Pasar Payang has been the shopping hub<br />
not only for locals but also tourists. It has now become almost a household name<br />
that whenever visitors arrive in Kuala Terengganu, a stop at Pasar Payang is a must.<br />
When to go:<br />
The state of Terengganu observes<br />
Sunday to Thursday as working days<br />
while Friday and Saturday are public<br />
holidays. Banks, government offices<br />
and most businesses in Terengganu<br />
operate from Sunday to Thursday.<br />
Also, it's worth checking out the<br />
weather before going. Terengganu<br />
experiences heavier rainfall and<br />
flooding in certain areas during the<br />
monsoon season when the north-east<br />
winds blow between November and<br />
January. Although the perception is<br />
that it rains every day during this<br />
period, there are perfectly sunny days<br />
too, in between wet spells, as in most<br />
places in Peninsular Malaysia. Still,<br />
trips to the islands are not advised<br />
during this period due to uncertain<br />
sea conditions. On the bright side,<br />
the monsoon season is considered<br />
low season and travellers get better<br />
deals on hotels.<br />
Driving tips:<br />
Kuala Lumpur to Kuala Terengganu<br />
(approximately 455 km): Take the<br />
Karak Highway, then proceed via the<br />
new East Coast Expressway. Those<br />
who prefer a drive along the scenic<br />
coastal road could exit at Jabor toll.<br />
Continue towards Kuala Terengganu<br />
on Federal Route 3 via Chukai town<br />
in Kemaman.<br />
Singapore/Johor Bahru to Kuala<br />
Terengganu (approximately 562 km):<br />
Take Federal Route 3 to Kota Tinggi,<br />
Mersing, Kuala Rompin, Pekan,<br />
Kuantan and Kuala Terengganu.<br />
Penang to Kuala Terengganu<br />
(approximately 460 km): Take Federal<br />
Route 4 via Grik to Jertih, then turn into<br />
Federal Route 3 to Kuala Terengganu.<br />
Flights:<br />
Fly to Kuala Terengganu Airport from<br />
KL International Airport (KLIA) via<br />
Malaysia Airlines or Malindo Air, from<br />
klia2 via AirAsia; or from Subang<br />
Airport (Kuala Lumpur) via Firefly and<br />
Malindo Air. There is also a direct<br />
flight from Johor Bahru to Kuala<br />
Terengganu via AirAsia.<br />

AirAsia Berhad Head of Commercial, Spencer Lee said, "We<br />
are thrilled that our first flight to Sihanoukville marked a<br />
milestone with a successful full flight for our 50th unique route.<br />
As a truly Asean airline, it remains as our commitment to drive<br />
tourism efforts to all countries that we operate in especially<br />
within the region."<br />
The maiden flight from Kuala Lumpur to Sihanoukville was<br />
welcomed by a water cannon salute at the Sihanoukville<br />
International Airport<br />
"With Sihanoukville added into our extensive network map of<br />
over 120 destinations, we hope to grow this city to be a popular<br />
tourist destination that enables travellers from the region to<br />
experience a hidden side of Asean that has yet to be discovered.<br />
More importantly through this direct route, we want to open<br />
up air travel for the people of Sihanoukville to explore Asean<br />
and the world using our wide connectivity across 27 countries."<br />

Batik Air now flies directly to Perth,<br />
Australia from Denpasar, Bali with two<br />
flights per day.<br />
Lion Air Group Public Relations Manager,<br />
Andy M Saladin said, "With this flight,<br />
we hope to make it easier for foreign<br />
tourists to travel to Indonesia via Bali."<br />
Andy added that the opening of the<br />
Batik Air route to Australia was done to<br />
support Indonesian tourism and develop<br />
it into a favourite destination with the<br />
airline targeting to fly to other cities in<br />
Australia soon.<br />
Until now Batik Air has flown to more than 36 destinations,<br />
both domestic and international. The total fleet reaches 49<br />
units that have flown to serve 250 flights per day. "We will<br />
continue to expand, both in addition to international and<br />

Firefly offers<br />
free travel insurance!<br />
It is common to forego purchasing a travel insurance when<br />
your mind is focused on you relaxing on a beach chair at some<br />
remote island. But, with Firefly Airlines, you're automatically<br />
covered in case of unforeseen circumstances while travelling.<br />
A recent move, Firefly has partnered with AIG Travel Insurance<br />
to roll out the Firefly Travel Protection (Basic) for free.<br />
Firefly Airlines Chief Executive Officer, Ignatius Ong said,<br />
"Every ticket you buy gets you covered for free up to RM15,000<br />
in medical expenses and RM1,000 for trip cancellations."<br />
If you choose an upgrade which comes with a fee of RM17,<br />
the coverage will be extended up to RM150,000 for personal<br />
accidents, RM2,500 for trip cancellations, RM2,500 for baggage<br />
damage, RM1,500 for loss of travel documents and RM1,750<br />
for flight delays.<br />
He further said, "The price of the upgrade is a small amount<br />
to pay for greater ease of mind when you’re travelling."<br />
On a similar note, once<br />
customers are done<br />
purchasing their flight<br />
tickets, they would receive<br />
a prompt if they're<br />
interested to book<br />
accommodation or services<br />
with Expedia.<br />
The airline's travel portal,<br />
Firefly Holidays, has<br />
entered into a collaboration<br />
with Expedia which has extensive access of more than 435,000<br />
properties globally, with over 25,000 activities and dozens of<br />
car rental companies.<br />
Meanwhile, the airline also introduced its Firefly c-Wallet cashless<br />
system. Similar to the e-Wallet, this product is offered to<br />
corporate clients, organisations and registered business groups,<br />
enabling them to save and get rewarded with their accounts.<br />

beyond the KL International Airport (KLIA).<br />
“With ANA, our passengers will be connected to more than<br />

number of transit passengers at KLIA. Our extensive route<br />
network provides better options for passengers who travel<br />
for both the business and leisure segments."<br />
Apart from ANA, Malindo's interline partners include Turkish<br />

Just when we thought that booking a<br />
flight ticket can't be any easier, KLM<br />
has decided to go where no airline<br />
has gone before and that is to help<br />
customers book tickets via artificial<br />
intelligence (AI).<br />
The AI service bot named BlueBot<br />
(BB) helps customers book tickets<br />
in a conversational way on the<br />
airline's Facebook Messenger chat page.<br />

BB is supported by 250 human service colleagues but if she<br />
isn’t able to help customers further, she will refer them to one<br />
of her human service colleagues.<br />
Air France KLM Digital Senior Vice President, Pieter<br />
Groeneveld said, "KLM is well known for its personal<br />
approach. On social media, we offer 24/7 service with our<br />
team of 250 human agents, handling more than 16,000 cases<br />
a week. Volumes will continue to grow. At the same time,<br />
customers require a speedy response. We have therefore<br />
been experimenting with Artificial Intelligence to support our<br />
agents to provide a personal, timely and<br />
correct answer. With BB, KLM is taking the next step in its<br />
social media strategy, offering personal service through<br />
technology, supported by human agents when needed."<br />

Cashless<br />
Convenience<br />
Malaysia Airports partners with world's largest<br />
online and mobile payment platform, Alipay<br />
Malaysia Airports is pushing forward by going cashless and<br />
becoming partners with China's prominent online mobile<br />
platform, Alipay.<br />
The partnership took centre stage at the Global Cashless Eco-<br />
Summit <strong>2017</strong> in Beijing, China when the airport operator was<br />
invited by Ant Financial Services Group that operates Alipay.<br />
Malaysia Airports Managing Director, Datuk Badlisham Ghazali<br />
said, "We are continuously looking to enhance the airport<br />
experience for all our customers. Thus, to embark on the Alipay<br />
cashless payment platform is a major step taken by Malaysia<br />
Airports to embrace the future of retail and F&B transactions<br />
at its airports. To date, 55.8% and 56.7% outlets at KLIA and<br />
klia2 terminal respectively are transacting via Alipay. So far,<br />
we have seen a 25% increase in sales from overall Alipay<br />
transactions at both terminals.” During shopping campaign<br />
period, sales can increase further by 35% to 40%."<br />
Badlisham added that Malaysia Airports fully supports platforms<br />
such as Alipay for providing cashless convenience to customers,<br />
especially millennials who prefer to travel light and are<br />
technology savvy. He said that such cashless convenience is<br />
also in line with the organisation's efforts to move towards a<br />
highly digitised airport environment.<br />

Brahim's<br />
Serving Beyond Airline Meals<br />
Brahim's Holdings Berhad isn't just your well-known in-flight catering company for 36 airlines both<br />
local and international. In fact, the 30-year-old food group is a key driver within the Halal industry, has<br />
food and beverage outlets at the KL International Airport (KLIA) and klia2, delivers meals to be sold<br />
at 7-Eleven stores, provides logistics and even acts as a food preparation expert and consultant for<br />
companies and organisations. In this issue of Convergence, we speak with Executive Chairman, Dato'<br />
Seri Ibrahim Ahmad Badawi on how Brahim's became the household name it is today.<br />
Food is a major component concerning<br />
the operations at Brahim's Holdings<br />
Berhad and most of us might have eaten<br />
meals prepared by them, especially if<br />
we have flown with Malaysia's flagship<br />
carrier, Malaysia Airlines Berhad (MAB).<br />
But the company, which has been<br />
around since 1983, initially began<br />
operations providing bonded<br />
warehousing, freight forwarding and<br />
transportation services under Tamadam<br />
Bonded Warehouse Sdn Bhd.<br />
In 1998, the company's private arm,<br />
Dewina Holdings, got into a joint<br />
venture with Host Marriot International<br />
and became Dewina Host Sdn Bhd. This<br />
paved way for four stores at KLIA which<br />
included Malaysia's first Burger King<br />
outlet, Cafe Marche (now known as Cafe<br />
Barbera), Sbarro (Italian cuisine) and<br />
Asian Kitchen (now known as Kopi<br />
Time). Sbarro has ceased operations<br />
but today, Dewina Host has 14 outlets<br />
in total at KLIA and klia2.<br />
Ibrahim said the 14 outlets consisted of<br />
five outlets at KLIA and nine outlets at<br />
klia2. At klia2, he said the Urban Food<br />
Court offered nine different food choices.<br />
The Urban Food Court is a multi-brand<br />
concept encompassing local and western<br />
brands which include Popeye's, Toast<br />
Box and Burger King.<br />
Airline Catering<br />
Realising there was a way for their<br />
operations to reach greater heights,<br />
Brahim's joined hands with LSG, the<br />
world's largest provider of airline catering<br />
and in-flight services and formed LSG<br />
Sky Chefs Brahim's (LSGB) in 2003, taking<br />
over MAB's catering operations.<br />
Ten years later, Brahim's acquired more<br />
shares in the partnership and renamed<br />
itself as Brahim's Airline Catering Sdn<br />
Bhd. Last year, Brahim's forged a<br />
partnership with Singapore-based SATS<br />
and today, it is known as Brahim’s SATS<br />
Food Services Sdn Bhd (BSFS).<br />
"During the early days, we catered to<br />
around 20 airlines and made between<br />
20,000 and 30,000 meals per day. Today,<br />
we cater to 36 airlines and make around<br />
50,000 meals per day at our flight kitchen<br />
in Sepang."<br />
Brahim's Executive Chairman,<br />
Dato' Seri Ibrahim Ahmad Badawi<br />
Among its clientele are AirAsiaX, Malindo<br />
Air, Emirates*(including Lounge), British<br />
Airways, Turkish Airlines and Qatar<br />
Airways.<br />
"In a nutshell, if there is a flight departing<br />
from KLIA and it requires Halal-certified<br />
meals, we are the go-to person providing<br />
those services."<br />
88
Ibrahim said BSFS has some 1,300 staff<br />
who work on shifts around the clock<br />
throughout the year due to flights<br />
operating throughout the day.<br />
"We aren't just an assembly-line kitchen.<br />
We make our meals from scratch and<br />
source our raw materials from Hazard<br />
Analysis and Critical Control Point<br />
(HACCP)-certified suppliers."<br />
Ibrahim added that the company<br />
provided meal delivery services to<br />
respective aircraft using special trucks<br />
that maintains the temperatures of the<br />
meals for re-heating purposes on board<br />
the aircraft.<br />
Certified Halal<br />
Ibrahim said both flight kitchens with the<br />
other one operating in Penang are<br />
certified Halal. The Penang kitchen<br />
serves around 10 airlines and makes<br />
between 5,000 and 6,000 meals per day.<br />
"We are proud to say that we are<br />
probably the only flight kitchen in the<br />
world with a 'samak' (Islamic cleansing<br />
methods) system in place for all<br />
inbound crockery."<br />
On the country's booming growth and<br />
focus towards the Halal industry, Ibrahim<br />
said, "We are rising in tandem with the<br />
country's push and progress. Not only<br />
that, we are contributing to the Halal<br />
awareness both locally and globally."<br />
In 2014, Brahim's organised a Halal<br />
conference in Japan for Japanese<br />
companies interested in contributing to<br />
the Halal industry. The conference<br />
included representatives from the<br />
Malaysian Islamic Development<br />
Department (Jakim) and the Malaysian<br />
Islamic Understanding Institute (Ikim).<br />
"We also have a Halal Excellence<br />
Centre which has certified 31 airline<br />
kitchens around the world as the airline<br />
industry has recognised us as a<br />
pioneering expert and consultant in<br />
the Halal certification and Halal industry<br />
in general."<br />

always be around food services. Given<br />
the opportunity, we would like to expand<br />

the old Subang airport and hopes the<br />
relationship will continue to prosper and<br />
promote mutual learning experiences<br />

Badlisham Speaks<br />
The View from<br />
the Top<br />
The year <strong>2017</strong> has been wonderful for Malaysia<br />
in terms of welcoming visitors to our beautiful<br />
country. While last year Malaysia Airports had<br />
registered a total of 43 million international<br />
passenger movements at all 5 international<br />
airports under its management in Malaysia,<br />
this year it recorded 32 million between the<br />
months of January to August alone, growing<br />
by 15.3%. This number represents 50.6% of<br />
the total passenger movements for its whole<br />
Malaysia operations. In including their overseas<br />
operations in Turkey, total passenger traffic<br />
movements stand at 85 million. Managing<br />
Director, Datuk Badlisham Ghazali speaks on<br />
how Malaysia Airports is catering to this<br />
growth, especially in Malaysia.<br />
Within the last 12 months, we reached a record high<br />
125.7 million passenger traffic movements, a 9.0% growth<br />
from the same period last year and this is the first time<br />
ever we have breached the 125 million mark.<br />
We are seeing growth not only in passenger traffic<br />
movements but also in aircraft movements especially<br />
international aircraft movements as well as passenger<br />
load factors. For example, in the month of August we<br />
saw 25 airlines registering double-digit growth for<br />
international passenger traffic. They include AirAsia X,<br />
Malindo Air, Thai Airways International, Silk Air, All<br />
Nippon Airways, Oman Air, Xiamen Airlines and Saudi<br />
Arabian Airlines. Various regional events such as the<br />
recent KL <strong>2017</strong> SEA Games and Para ASEAN Games,<br />
together with competitive fares, a favourable exchange<br />
rate for tourists and visa relaxation for travellers from<br />
India and China have all helped contribute to this growth.<br />
Needless to say, we are delighted to have enjoyed such<br />
robust growth. However, this makes it more imperative<br />
than ever for us to ensure that we uplift the standards<br />
of our service and facilities at our airports so that we can<br />
continue to provide joyful experiences to our passengers.<br />
We have expended great efforts in improving our basic<br />
facilities such as refurbishing 224 washrooms and two<br />
Muslim prayer rooms at KLIA. We have also embarked<br />
on a major maintenance and overhaul programme for<br />
the Aerotrains to provide better service reliability. As<br />
passenger numbers at KLIA are increasing, we have<br />
activated full time shuttle bus services as another mode<br />
of people movers between the Main Terminal and Satellite<br />
Building to augment the Aerotrain services.<br />
Travellers who have connecting flights between KLIA Main Terminal<br />
and klia2 Terminal can now enjoy the free 24/7 Terminal Transfer<br />
Service. Since we launched this service in July, more than 50,000<br />
passengers have used this service. We hope that in the near future,<br />
we can also offer an airside transfer facility which will enable the<br />
interlining between full service and low cost flights at KLIA.<br />
We also want to ensure that passengers do not have a problem<br />
navigating through our airport. Most recently, we collaborated<br />
with Tourism Malaysia to instal a Chinese Affairs Travellers Help<br />
Desk in KLIA making us the first airport in Southeast Asia to do<br />
so. On top of this, we partnered with China's Alipay to offer<br />
cashless convenience to shoppers at all our international airports<br />
and also launched FlyKLIA, an online and mobile travel sharing<br />
platform that allows users to plan their travel itineraries and write<br />
reviews on attractions within the country.<br />
We also think that it is important, as the main gateway into the<br />
nation, to serve as an introduction to the country. We continue<br />
our collaboration with various state tourism bodies to hold monthly<br />
cultural performances and provide the latest travel information<br />
on each state’s interesting tourist destinations. These monthly<br />
promotions have been very well-received by our airport visitors<br />
who are not only able to see local artists practising their unique<br />
skills but are also able to participate in the cultural performances.<br />
It is my sincere hope that travellers passing through our airport<br />
will enjoy a smooth journey and also create wonderful memories<br />
of their time in our country.<br />

Fugee School Co-Founder, Deborah Henry (third<br />

Fugee School<br />
Creating a<br />
Future for<br />
Refugee Children<br />
A school for refugee children, Fugee School has<br />
educated over 300 refugees from over six countries<br />
from the age of 4 to 20 years since its implementation<br />
in 2009. Fugee School Co-Founder, Deborah Henry<br />
elaborates on the initiative and why a holistic quality<br />
education is the single most powerful weapon that<br />
can transform the lives of these children.<br />
"Seeing children suffer will break anyone's heart. Questions<br />
dance in your mind about how to help, how to heal their<br />
hearts and not lose them forever. Through many on the<br />
ground experiences, I had become more convinced that<br />
knowledge is power – which is why we started Fugee<br />
School in 2009 as a place to nurture learning and<br />
encourage positive mindsets and development."<br />
It was during a visit with the United Nations High<br />
Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to interview four<br />
refugee families in 2008 that sparked off the school<br />
Deborah intended to create with her university friend<br />
Shikeen Halibullah.<br />
Deborah said, "I sat on the floor of their homes listening<br />
to their heartbreaking stories and I knew when I left the<br />
last home I couldn't just make a donation and walk away,<br />
I had to do something that would impact the children's<br />
lives. Fugee School was born out of necessity, I couldn't<br />
accept that there were children in Kuala Lumpur who were<br />
not going to school, unable to read and write."<br />
Eight months later, the school's first desks and chairs<br />
arrived alongside its first batch of 60 students.<br />
Two of the school's first students were Syrian siblings,<br />
Ahmed and Hawa Yusof. Forced to leave their country<br />
due to the war in 2013, both siblings and their parents<br />
are refugees living in Kuala Lumpur with no access to<br />
proper education, employment or basic necessities in life<br />
unless provided for by non-governmental organisations<br />
and charity drives.<br />
Deborah said, "One day, I gave Ahmed crayons and paper<br />
and told him to colour away, but he couldn't put pen to paper.<br />
His imagination and mind was shut down, he had stopped<br />
91
Inspiration<br />
thinking about the future and what he<br />
wanted to be when he grew up. During a<br />
crisis like this, it is crucial that children stay<br />
in school, as it helps them deal with trauma,<br />
it gives them something to focus on, builds<br />
their self-value and gives them a sense of<br />
control over their lives."<br />
Today with the help of Fugee School,<br />
Deborah said Ahmed's ambition changes<br />
daily which is a good sign because it<br />
shows he is not afraid to dream.<br />
The Nawa Effect<br />
Nawa, another refugee child, was also<br />
initially crippled with the 'refugee<br />
stigma'. Deborah said the girl always<br />
sat waiting for something to happen,<br />
relied on aid and did not look into<br />
her future.<br />
"But, this very same girl went from never<br />
attending formal schooling, to attending<br />
and dropping out of Fugee School to<br />
earn money to support her family, to<br />
eventually returning to school and<br />
getting into a university. How did she<br />
achieve this? She had the desire to learn<br />
and coupled with personal development,<br />
her confidence and self-value gave her<br />
the strength and focus to think about<br />
her dreams and goals."<br />
Ultimately, Deborah said, "She was one<br />
of a handful of refugee students to get<br />
accepted into the University of Nottingham<br />
Malaysia foundation programme."<br />
"The Nawa Effect was possible because,<br />
while Nawa was empowered with knowledge<br />
and confidence, it was access to the right<br />
opportunities and platforms that enabled<br />
her to determine her own fate."<br />
Behind The Curtain<br />
The Fugee School has several African<br />
teachers, Somalian staff, American and<br />
Malaysian volunteers. In total, there are<br />
around 12 staff and six volunteers. The<br />
school is a non-profit organisation and<br />
often partners with relevant skilled<br />
groups and individuals to customise<br />
refugee programmes as well as develop<br />
a curriculum that focuses on academic,<br />
sports and personal development.<br />
Deborah said most teachers are qualified<br />
to teach with several having a background<br />
in education. Staff members are paid a<br />
basic salary for their commitment while<br />
students pay a monthly commitment fee.<br />
But there are plenty of challenges in<br />
running a school for refugee kids.<br />
Deborah said, "A big reason community<br />
projects fail because the donor doesn’t<br />
really understand or have a relationship<br />
with the community they are trying to<br />
assist. So, we have always made a<br />
conscious effort to maintain close<br />
communication at all times. Another<br />
challenge is cultural differences and<br />
mindsets. As we work with many different<br />
cultures, we need to be constantly aware<br />
of sensitivities and prepared to overcome<br />
hurdles to change mindsets. Eight years<br />
later, we still face the same and new<br />
challenges but throughout it all, our<br />
focus is always on the students. We ask<br />
ourselves, what's best for them and what<br />
will make them better global citizens?"<br />
A Regular School Day<br />
On any given school day, there are about<br />
150 children and youth aged between 4<br />
and 20 years who walk through the<br />
school doors. "We run a tight shift with<br />
a morning and an afternoon session. On<br />
some days the students head to out-ofschool<br />
activities at ISKL (International<br />
School Kuala Lumpur) or to the nearby<br />
field for sports as we have yoga classes<br />
and a Science and Chess club."<br />
Deborah said, "We run a five-day school<br />
week with a preschool and primary<br />
morning session followed by the high<br />
school and O-Level afternoon session.<br />
Students are generally placed into levels<br />
based on English and math proficiency<br />
and not solely on age. We use a<br />
combination of Singaporean and British<br />
text books and the younger grades use<br />
Scholastic English interactive whiteboards<br />
which makes learning a lot more fun."<br />
"The struggle we face is many students<br />
have had little or no access or a disrupted<br />
access to learning so their academic<br />
levels are staggered and many don’t<br />
even know the basics of going to school<br />
and doing homework. Before we can<br />
even teach the subject we need to get<br />
them comfortable with the school<br />
environment and engaged in class. We<br />
also find that most students struggle to<br />
remain focused and learn in classroom<br />
environments, so we try to include more<br />
out-of-class activities where they learn<br />
faster through a hands-on approach."<br />
No One Chooses To<br />
Become A Refugee<br />
"We want to see all children who walk<br />
through our doors eventually leave as<br />
empowered, ambitious global citizens<br />
and as long as there are refugees in<br />
Malaysia, Fugee School will be around<br />
to educate them. We work with various<br />
organisations to provide the best<br />
education services to our students and<br />
we always strive to establish the most<br />
effective partnerships."<br />
Deborah also called on anyone interested<br />
to lend a hand to Fugee School by<br />
making a financial contribution or by<br />
sharing and donating skills. "Never<br />
underestimate the impact you can have<br />
on a life; because you never just change<br />
one life, you will impact generations."<br />

A tear drop-shaped country located below<br />
India, Sri Lanka is home to over 21 million<br />
people with the country's legislative capital<br />
being Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte, a suburb<br />
of the commercial capital and largest city,<br />
Colombo. A country that has been occupied<br />
by the Portuguese, Dutch and the British as<br />
well as struggling to fight a civil war that lasted<br />
for over two decades and ended in 2009,<br />
today, the country is a major tea exporter, a<br />
booming tourist attraction and home to a<br />
diverse community. In this Special Feature,<br />
we bring you a personal account of the country<br />
as our writer weaves in and out of cities, soaks<br />
up on facts and trivia from UNESCO World<br />
Heritage sites and sample simplicity from<br />
smaller towns in the country's northern<br />
provincial city, Jaffna.<br />
Tuk tuks are the preferred mode of<br />
public transportation in Sri Lanka<br />
As you start driving away from the airport,<br />
there's this three wheeler that often tries<br />
to overtake your bulky tourist van and<br />
despite warnings to drive safe from other<br />
vehicles, the three wheeler continues to<br />
drive at the speed of lightning and<br />
whizzes away from sight. If you're a tourist<br />
like me, perhaps that's Sri Lanka saying<br />
"Ayubowan" which means 'welcome'.<br />
But hey, we suggest a ride in the three<br />
wheeler which is locally known as a 'tuk<br />
tuk' or 'auto' because it's an adventure<br />
on its own. As for safety, we suggest<br />

Colombo<br />
As you move along the bustling roads with plenty of tuk tuks and Buddha statues,<br />
some hidden while most in open spaces, the weather of this city is similar to Malaysia<br />
although humidity levels are higher.<br />
The first stop is a prominent landmark and every year on February 4, the country<br />
gets a day off with many thronging the Independence Square to celebrate Sri Lanka's<br />
freedom from the British which it obtained in 1948. The Square pays homage to the<br />
event and is adorned by a large statue of the man who played a pivotal role – the<br />

Special Feature<br />
Weligama<br />
This coastal town is known for a<br />
certain tourist attraction known<br />
as stilt fishing. Back in the days,<br />
fishermen would sit precariously<br />
on wooden stilts and earn their<br />
living via the amount of seafood<br />
they could catch while on the<br />
stilts. However, as the years<br />
progressed and technology<br />
advanced, sadly this way of<br />
fishing has ceased to exist. Today,<br />
the community of fishermen are<br />
willing to re-enact the fishing<br />
method but it comes with a<br />
tourist group fee starting from<br />
LKR300 (approximately RM8).<br />
Nuwara Eliya<br />
Recognised as the 'city of lights' and the 'city of eternal spring', where the<br />
air is pure and cool. Take a journey through narrow passes, beside deep<br />
ravines and over gushing streams to Galway's Land National Park, do the<br />
trails up to Adam's Peak or visit the Seetha Amman temple which is built on<br />
the exact spot believed to be the place where Seetha was held captive by<br />
the demon-king Ravana as depicted in the epic Hindu tale, Ramayana. While<br />
you're here, visit one of the many tea factories in the vicinity and learn about<br />

Kandy<br />
This is the place where the relic of the sacred tooth of Lord Buddha is laid in a<br />
magnificent temple – Sri Dalada Maligawa. According to legendary tales, a Buddhist<br />
prince and a Hindu princess brought Buddha's tooth from India after his body was<br />
cremated there. The tooth was first kept in Anuradhapura but eventually found its<br />
home in the golden temple in Kandy. The temple complex is large and you will be<br />
required to remove your footwear while inside the buildings. It also has Hindu<br />
temples within the area that once served the Hindu princess who brought the tooth.<br />
The second largest city in the country, it is also known for its Botanical Gardens and<br />
the incomparable Esala Perahera celebration, a procession of more than 100<br />
elephants, held during the month of August every year to pay homage to the sacred<br />
tooth relic.<br />

Golden Temple of Dambulla<br />
A UNESCO World Heritage site, this cave monastery has five sanctuaries, 157 statues<br />
and happens to be the largest best-preserved cave-temple complex in the country.<br />
A sacred pilgrimage site for 22 centuries, each route leading to the temple are long<br />
granite steps and as such if you're visiting the temple, it is best to visit and climb<br />
the temple either in the morning or in the evening.<br />
Inside the ceilings of the caves there are colourful religious images as well as those<br />
of various gods and goddesses. There are images of the Lord Buddha and<br />
bodhisattvas. The caves are built at the base of a 150 metre-high rock during the<br />
Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa era.<br />

Some may look at it from afar and<br />
wonder what is the big deal about this<br />
huge rock located within a jungle? It's<br />
common to think that way but did you<br />
know that this rock once served as a<br />
fortress during the Anuradhapura era<br />
and included caved temples, bathing<br />
pools and ponds? It also served as a<br />
hermitage for Buddhist monks during<br />
earlier times and known for its ancient<br />
paintings (frescoes) exhibiting a uniquely<br />
Sri Lankan style.<br />
As for the rock itself, it is a lava plug left<br />
over from an ancient long extinct<br />
volcano. One of Asia's most important<br />
archaeological site, Sigiriya can be<br />
accessed through a series of galleries<br />
and staircases emerging from the mouth<br />
of a gigantic lion. The fortress was<br />
designated as a UNESCO World<br />
Heritage site in 1982 and today, its<br />
remains include the extensive network<br />
of gardens, reservoirs and other<br />
structures. If you wish to learn more<br />
about Sigiriya, don't forget the museum<br />
located outside the main entrance.<br />

Anuradhapura<br />
Anuradhapura<br />
and Polonnaruwa<br />
Prior to Colombo being the capital city,<br />
Anuradhapura was the first ancient<br />
capital of the country ruled by kings for<br />
approximately 1,400 years. Today, its<br />
magnificent monuments, refined<br />
sculpture and paintings are testimony<br />
to a veritable and original Sri Lankan<br />
culture. This place was also the first home<br />
for the sacred tooth relic of Buddha.<br />
After the Anuradhapura reign ended,<br />
Polonnaruwa became the capital city.<br />
The medieval capital of Sri Lanka, it is a<br />
far more preserved city of ruins than<br />
Anuradhapura. Visit the ancient ruins<br />

Jaffna<br />
The northern province of this country, it is home to mostly Sri Lankan Tamils. A<br />
notable landmark in this province is the Public Library. During the civil war, it was<br />
even burnt down and resulted in the death of four people. Today, at the library's<br />
front entrance, a statue of Saraswati, the Hindu goddess of learning, beckons visitors<br />
inside. However, do not be fazed that you aren't allowed to see much of this place<br />
as tourists and visitors are given restricted access of the library. If you're dropping<br />
by, view interesting photos from the days of the blast of the place and take a stroll<br />
around the building to enjoy the architecture and the garden.<br />
Another notable landmark is the Jaffna Fort. The first fort here was built in 1619 by<br />
the Portuguese. It was later surrendered to the Dutch and finally the British took<br />
hold of the fort. Unlike the Galle and Colombo Forts which were fortified towns,<br />
the Jaffna Fort was primarily used for military and administrative functions only.<br />
In Jaffna, the Nallur Kandasamy temple is one of Jaffna's most significant Hindu<br />
temples. If you wish to see prayer ceremonies taking place at this primarily Lord<br />
Muruga temple, prayer times are at 5am,10am, noon, 4.15pm (simple prayers),<br />
4.30pm (special prayers), 5pm and 6.45pm. Some prefer to see the temple during<br />
a prayer, a small ceremony of reverence involving drummers and dancers – there<br />
are more people during this time. Others prefer to see the temple outside of prayer<br />
times to avoid the crowds. The temple's current structure dates from 1734 and its<br />
huge compound shelters decorative brasswork, large murals, pillared halls and a<br />
holy pool.<br />

& Treats<br />
The [F]light Side<br />
In this issue, let us treat you to several fun facts<br />
on royalties around the world and how they redefine<br />
the jet-setting lifestyles of the rich and famous!<br />
Heirs to the Throne!<br />
The British royal family follows a protocol that states<br />
two heirs of the throne should never fly on the same<br />
flight together so that the royal lineage is protected.<br />
However, Prince William has been breaking this tradition<br />
since his children were born and has travelled with<br />
them together with his wife and Duchess of Cambridge,<br />
Kate Middleton. Previous generations of the Royal<br />
Family, including the Queen, carried out tours without<br />
their children who were left behind with governesses.<br />
Brunei's Royal Pilot<br />
Brunei's Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah is no stranger<br />
when it comes to owning luxurious items. But,<br />
did you know that the 71-year-old is also a<br />
licensed pilot? In 2013, the Sultan piloted his own<br />
Boeing 747 aircraft to meet former US President<br />
Barack Obama making him quite possibly the<br />
only head of state in the world to have piloted<br />
his own plane to meet another head of state!<br />
King's part-time Gig<br />
The King of the Netherlands has another job he is<br />
passionate about and he has been doing it for 21<br />
years. In a recent interview this year with a Dutch<br />
newspaper, King Willem-Alexander revealed that he<br />
has been a co-pilot on passenger and government<br />
aircraft! Having acceded to the throne in 2013, the<br />
avid plane enthusiast has no intention of stopping<br />
this profession and intends to learn how to fly other<br />
aircraft too!<br />
The real Maverick<br />
Jordan's King Abdullah II may be the head<br />
of a constitutional monarchy but that does<br />
not stop him from being a career soldier<br />
and pilot. The 55-year-old was once a<br />
student at the UK's<br />
Royal Military<br />
Academy at Sandhurst<br />
in 1980 and went on to<br />
become an elite Cobra<br />
attack helicopter pilot.<br />
In November 1993,<br />
then a Prince, he<br />
became Jordan's<br />
commander of special<br />
forces and has since<br />
clocked in 35 years of<br />
military service. Move<br />

September 11<br />
Turning<br />
Back Time<br />
First Commonwealth<br />
Games in Asia<br />
Host nation, Malaysia took the fourth ranking<br />
in the Games and bagged 10 gold medals<br />
In 1998, Malaysia became the first Asian<br />
country to host the 16th Commonwealth<br />
Games at its capital, Kuala Lumpur. The 98<br />
Games was also the last of the 20th century.<br />
The Games held in Kuala Lumpur was also<br />
the first to feature team sports which brought<br />
in more participants to audience members<br />
to view the Games.<br />
The opening ceremony took place on<br />
September 11 and it was officiated by then<br />
Prime Minister, Dato' Seri Dr Mahathir<br />
Mohamad (now referred as Tun Dr Mahathir<br />
Mohamad). The closing ceremony was<br />
officiated by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth<br />
II on September 21.<br />
At the Games, Malaysia took home 10 gold,<br />
13 silver and 12 bronze medals. Australia<br />
took home the most medals followed by<br />
England and Canada.<br />
Fifteen sports were featured in the Kuala<br />
Lumpur Games – athletics, aquatics (diving,<br />
swimming and synchronised swimming),<br />
badminton, boxing, cricket, cycling,<br />
gymnastics, hockey, netball, lawn bowling,<br />
rugby 7s, shooting, squash, tenpin bowling<br />
and weightlifting.<br />
The Commonwealth Games were first known as<br />
the British Empire Games when it kicked off in<br />
Hamilton, Canada on 1930. The Games involved<br />
nations that were formerly British territories.<br />
The 98 Games saw Bank<br />
Negara Malaysia in cooperation<br />
with Sukom<br />
Ninety Eight Berhad<br />
issuing the country's first<br />
polymer RM50 banknote<br />
to commemorate the<br />
Games. The design<br />
of the note portrays<br />
Malaysia as a world class<br />
sporting destination.<br />

A Towering<br />
Figure<br />
The KL Tower was the newest<br />
and tallest kid on the block<br />
when it was launched in 1996<br />
It may no longer be the tallest tower in the country but it sure is a<br />
prominent landmark within Malaysia. The KL Tower is the seventh tallest<br />
telecommunication tower in the world and the tallest in Southeast Asia.<br />
Standing at 421 metres and located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, the<br />
tower began construction in October 1991 and was completed in 1996.<br />
It went through three phases of construction and was completed on 1<br />
October 1996 and launched by then Prime Minister, Dato' Seri Dr<br />
Mahathir Mohamad (now Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad).<br />
Today, the KL Tower has an<br />
observation deck, a mini zoo,<br />
a blue coral aquarium and a<br />
Formula 1 simulator.<br />
For those seeking adventure<br />
and adrenalin-rush activities,<br />
KL Tower is known as the<br />
World BASE Jump Centre.<br />
The Tower has hosted the<br />
longest-running urban BASE<br />
(Building, Antenna, Span,<br />
Earth) event since 1999 and<br />
it is now the largest event of<br />
its kind in the world.<br />
To top it off, the tower is<br />
located within the Bukit<br />
Nanas Forest Reserve, one<br />
of the oldest forest reserves<br />
in the country.<br />

Chronicles<br />
The airport in the 90s<br />
Lahad Datu Airport<br />
A mere one kilometre away from the Lahad Datu town and an hour's flight journey from Kota Kinabalu<br />
International Airport, this airport accommodates the ATR 72 and smaller aircraft, handles 100,000<br />
passengers annually and is a prominent landmark in a district that houses over 350,000 people. If you're<br />
visiting the district, here are key takeaways about its airport and surrounding attractions.<br />
In 2008, then Housing and Local Government Deputy Minister, Datuk Seri Panglima<br />
Lajim Ukin officiated upgrading works for the airport by signing a plaque<br />
A region facing rapid economic growth<br />
with tourism activities, vibrant plantation<br />
and an affable local community, the<br />
district and its airport will welcome you<br />
with open arms.<br />
As soon as you touch down at the Lahad<br />
Datu airport which is manned by 39 staff<br />
members from Malaysia Airports, the<br />
airport strives to make memorable<br />
journeys for passengers and possesses<br />
minimal but sufficient resources without<br />
compromising on safety and quality.<br />
For passenger convenience, baggage<br />
trolleys are available free of charge with<br />
50 units located at both Departure and<br />
Arrival hall. There is a canteen, sundry<br />
shop, parking bays and taxis waiting to<br />
bring you to your next destination.<br />
However, travellers be<br />
wary as the busiest<br />
months for Lahad Datu<br />
are generally the<br />
months of November<br />
and December for<br />
Christmas and New Year<br />
as most government<br />
and private company<br />
staff working here will<br />
travel home to spend<br />
time with their families<br />
during the holidays.<br />
In March, an influx of<br />
tourists and international<br />
students are a common<br />
sight due to research<br />
activities at Danum<br />
Valley and Tabin Wildlife<br />
Reserve while April sees the town of<br />
Semporna hosting the Regatta Lepa, a<br />
festival that honours the traditional art<br />
of making beautiful lepas (a single mast<br />
sailing boat). This makes it a great time<br />
to visit Semporna via the airport.<br />
Meanwhile, golfers should visit the Lahad<br />
Datu Golf & Country Club as it is set<br />
amongst a vast landscape of oil palm<br />
plantations on the Sandakan to Lahad<br />
Datu highway. At 6,325 metres in length,<br />
the golf course was opened in 1994 and<br />
is among the longest courses in Sabah<br />
with 18 holes.<br />
In January 2005, the Sabah state<br />
government chose Lahad Datu as the<br />
country's first dedicated palm oil logistics<br />
hub. The Palm Oil Industrial Cluster<br />
(POIC) Lahad Datu is one of the most<br />
important ports in the region for export<br />
of palm oil. It produces more than five<br />
million tonnes of crude palm oil (CPO)<br />
per year, providing ample raw materials<br />
for downstream activities.<br />

KLIA celebrates the 29th SEA Games with KL<strong>2017</strong><br />
Torch Run<br />
Malaysia Airports' employees and people<br />
from the surrounding community within<br />
Sepang celebrated and participated in the<br />
Kuala Lumpur <strong>2017</strong> (KL<strong>2017</strong>) Torch Run in<br />
conjunction with the 29th SEA Games and<br />
the 9th ASEAN Para Games on August 4.<br />
Malaysia Airports is the gold sponsor and<br />
official Welcoming Partner of the Games that<br />
took place between August 19 and 30 and<br />
between September 19 and 23, respectively.<br />
More than 1,000 people were flagged off<br />
at the KL International Airport (KLIA) after<br />
the torch was handed over by Dengkil State<br />
Assemblyman, Shahrum Mohd Sharif to<br />
Malaysia Airports Senior General Manager,<br />
Zainol Mohd Isa. Deputy Minister of Youth<br />
and Sports, Datuk M. Saravanan was also<br />
present at the event to flag off the run.<br />
Zainol said, "We at Malaysia Airports are<br />
proud to be part of the KL<strong>2017</strong> Torch Run<br />
today. This is a historic moment for us, not<br />
only as employees of Malaysia Airports but<br />
also as Malaysian citizens. We are proud<br />
to continue serving the nation especially<br />
during such a momentous occasion of<br />
Malaysia hosting KL <strong>2017</strong>. Our role as one<br />
of the sponsors of KL <strong>2017</strong> is made even<br />
more meaningful as this year is also our<br />
Silver Jubilee year. So, we think it is a fitting<br />
occasion that serves as one of the important<br />
milestones in marking the celebration of our<br />
25th Anniversary."<br />
Apart from ensuring that the excitement<br />
of the Games is felt at the airport through<br />
themed ambiance installation and activation,<br />
Malaysia Airports is also supporting the<br />
facilitation of the arrival of the contingents,<br />
officials and supporters. There were about<br />
60 to 70 roving ambassadors placed at key<br />
touch points at both terminals, KLIA and klia2, to provide operational and directional<br />
assistance. These ambassadors were recruited from staff members who were excited and<br />
proud to do their bit in supporting the country.<br />
The KL<strong>2017</strong> Torch has traversed all over Malaysia since May <strong>2017</strong> and continued its last<br />
run in the state of Selangor before the opening of the 29th SEA Games on August 19.<br />
The high point of the run was when the torch was brought into the Bukit Jalil Stadium to<br />
light up the Games cauldron at the opening ceremony.<br />

"Advocating a factory<br />
outlet shopping mall<br />
concept, the outlet mall<br />
offers attractive discounts<br />
every day of the year and<br />
on special occasions such<br />
as this, savings tipped<br />
over 90%. Located just<br />

may also capitalise on the<br />
offerings and activities as well as gain a<br />
flavour of the local culture and Japanese<br />
hospitality without having to travel to<br />

12th & 13th and lunch boxes on 19th,<br />
20th, 26th & 27th of the month.<br />

KLIA chosen as world's first<br />
hajj pre-clearance pilot project<br />
Saudi Arabian government lends full support for<br />
the first proof of concept<br />
The KL International Airport (KLIA) received another<br />
milestone recently after it was chosen by the Saudi Arabian<br />
government to conduct its first proof of concept (POC) for<br />
pre-clearance of hajj pilgrims at the point of departure.<br />
This is an initiative led by the government of the Kingdom<br />
of Saudi Arabia (KSA) under KSA Vision 2030. The POC<br />
event held on August 24 was witnessed by Transport<br />
Deputy Minister, Datuk Abdul Aziz Kaprawi.<br />
This initiative is aimed at facilitating the arrivals of all<br />
pilgrims into KSA. Specifically, this initiative will eliminate<br />
the need for long queues by pilgrims at immigration points<br />
in KSA as experienced in the past providing them with<br />
more time for their 'ibadah'.<br />
KSA Immigration has been working closely with KSA-based<br />
ELM and Malaysia-based XYBASE to implement this POC<br />
phase. The POC was planned for three days involving the<br />
last three flights of LTH pilgrims beginning with Malaysia<br />
Airlines charter flight MH8146 carrying 287 pilgrims.<br />
All 287 pilgrims under this POC phase went through<br />
immigration clearance by KSA before boarding their<br />
flight in KLIA. Upon their arrival at the Hajj Terminal<br />
King Abdulaziz International Airport, they were escorted<br />
through a special lane without having to go through the<br />
normal immigration clearance there, saving them hours<br />
of waiting time.<br />
Malaysia Airports Managing Director, Datuk Badlisham<br />
Ghazali said, "Malaysia Airports is delighted to be part<br />
of this milestone development. Apart from the fact that<br />
it is in line with our mission to ensure a joyful experience<br />
for our passengers, it is also part of a larger picture to<br />
establish KLIA as a regional hub. Upon a successful POC,<br />
we expect that the live implementation will take place<br />
beginning 2018 and this will definitely make KLIA more<br />
attractive for pilgrims from around the region to depart<br />
from our airport."<br />
Lembaga Tabung Haji Chairman, Datuk Seri Panglima<br />
Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim said, "We are very honoured<br />
to be involved in this pilot POC as it is a testament to<br />
our reputation in KSA as the best hajj management<br />
organisation. We are highly supportive of this initiative<br />
and hope that the live implementation will go ahead as<br />
planned in order to improve the efficiency of our Hajj<br />
operations and enhance the comfort of the pilgrims."<br />
