The time has come again for Sarawak to celebrate the cream of the crop for entrepreneurs building up the state’s economy and communities with their numerous efforts, commitment and hard work towards success. The Sarawak State Entrepreneur of the Year Awards (EOYS) 2018 aims to recognise the outstanding Sarawakian entrepreneurs, and to become the prime movers that drive the state’s path towards economic growth and Vision 2020. Next week, BizHive Weekly will highlight the seven winners of this year’s award recipients:

“The EOYS Awards, amongst others, aim to recognise the success of up and coming entrepreneurs, who through their ingenuity, ideas, resourcefulness, commitment and hard work, have built their businesses that have contributed to the growth of our State’s economy.” Datu Liaw Soon Eng, Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Industrial and Entrepreneur Development Sarawak

“Emphasis is on the individual’s attributes including demonstration of outstanding leadership, vision and dedication. The company’s milestones, financial performance, growth record and social responsibilities are also important considerations.” Datuk Philip Ting, Deputy President of the Sarawak Chamber of Commerce and Industry
