Develop Tawau as a destination: Chamber
Published on: Thursday, June 05, 2025 Published on: Thu, Jun 05, 2025 By: Lagatah Toyos Text Size: Chia said that in order to make Tawau a city that visitors would want to stay in and explore, he believes a comprehensive effort is needed to improve its tourism capacity and overall image. TAWAU: Tawau should not remain merely a 'transit hub' for local and international tourists. Instead, it needs to be developed into another attractive destination in Sabah. Tawau Chinese Chamber of Commerce (CCCT) President Chia Siong Fatt said Tawau actually has a lot to offer, with its natural beauty and unique culture for people to enjoy. Among them are tropical rainforest national parks, world-class fruit plantation, a multicultural heritage, affordable fresh seafood, historic old alleyways, and its reputation as a key centre for Malaysia's cocoa and chocolate production. However, he said all these resources had yet to be successfully integrated into a well-organised and appealing tourism product. As a result, tourists arriving at Tawau Airport (LTT) tend to head straight to Semporna, which is more internationally recognised. Subscribe or LOG IN to access this article.
