KUCHING: Construction firm Global Upline Sdn Bhd will invest RM145mil in two hotels of international standard here.
Company adviser Tan Sri Ting Pek Khiing said the proposed RM100mil Four Points By Sheraton hotel would be built opposite RH Plaza near the Kuching International Airport.
Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud is scheduled to perform the earth-breaking ceremony for the 360-room four-star hotel project on Nov 7.
“The hotel, which will be managed by international hotel chain Sheraton, will be ready by Aug 31, 2008,” he told reporters here yesterday.
Ting said the proposed second hotel with 220 rooms, also of four-star standard, would be built at Jalan Tabuan in the city centre. It has yet to be decided when the project will get off the ground.
Ting’s group of companies also owns several hotels in Malaysia, including Sheraton and Delima Hotels in Langkawi and Santubong Resorts in Damai near here.
Meanwhile, Ting said Global Upline had for the third consecutive year won an international construction award (New Millennium Award) granted by the editorial office in collaboration with the Trade Leaders Club in Europe. The award will be presented in Madrid, Spain next week.
He said the award was recognition of the speed and high quality of works the company had delivered in all major infrastructure projects, including airports and flyovers in both Sarawak and Sabah, which it had undertaken.
“We have always delivered the projects well ahead of time,” said Ting.
