Members of Wuling Almaz Lovers Indonesia (WALI), who are in the Sultanate as part of a Wuling Explore Borneo Tour, were treated to a dinner by Premier Motor Co Sdn Bhd (PMC), the local sole importer and distributor for Wuling Motors.
Guests, including PMC Chairman Teng Chee Khiong and Director Teng Chee How, management and staff as well as Wuling owners in Brunei, enjoyed a sumptuous dinner, games and karaoke at PMC’s main showroom in Beribi.
The seven-day excursion which was flagged off on December 23 in Pontianak, Kalimantan and saw them travelling through Singkawang, Kuching, Bintulu, Kota Kinabalu, Kundasang and the Sultanate.
The 67-member group visited the Wuling Motors main showroom and places of interest in the Sultanate, including the Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Mosque and Jame’ ‘Asr Hassanil Bolkiah.
“This is the first time WALI has explored beyond Indonesia. We took it as a challenge to travel beyond our borders as we seek to discover new experiences with the Wuling Almaz.
“It has been a fantastic experience for all of us visiting new places, learning new cultures and meeting new friends especially fellow Wuling enthusiasts,” said tour coordinator Parabu Sapta Rizki.
“The Wuling Almaz is a truly remarkable vehicle as it has taken us above and beyond during this tour with no problems at all,” he added.
“We did not encounter any major issues along the way. Our Wuling Almaz performed very well throughout, be it in the city or on the outskirts. Even in the mountainous areas of Kundasang, we drove with ease and comfort.”
He added that the only minor problem was at border checkpoints where they had to deal with very long queues due to the holiday season.
WALI will continue their journey today, with plans to stay overnight in Sibu and Kuching. – Lyna Mohamad
