SEA Games gold sponsorshi­p embodies online travel booking platform’s own story

-

KUALA LUMPUR: Traveloka, a leading online travel booking platform for South-East Asian destinatio­ns, is offering exclusive deals across South-East Asia with savings up to 30% for selected flights and 60% for hotel stays.

These deals, available on Traveloka’s website and Traveloka App via Google Play Store and App Store, were announced as part of its participat­ion in the 29th SEA Games and the upcoming 9th Asean Para Games as a Gold Sponsor.

More than just a sponsor of Malaysia’s most-talked-about Games this year, Traveloka Country Manager for Malaysia and Singapore, Halif Hamzah, shares that the sponsorshi­p is really close to the Traveloka team’s heart.

“We’re definitely thrilled to support KL2017, as both the SEA Games and Asean Para Games exemplify the pursuit of excellence, bringing together the finest athletes in the region,” he said.

“Along the same line, our own pursuit of excellence started in 2012 when the company began as a team of three young engineers from Silicon Valley, eager to revolution­ise the online travel industry in Indonesia.

“From there, we grew to be the number one online travel booking platform in Indonesia. Later, beginning in 2015, Traveloka began to expand across South-East Asia with offices in Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippine­s.

“In keeping with the same roaring spirit that’s surroundin­g the nation this month, Traveloka aspires to achieve a similar level of excellence by becoming everyone’s go-to online travel booking platform across SouthEast Asia.

“Traveloka aims to be the one-stop solution for travellers by offering flight and hotels that provide the best value to our customers on our easy-to-use platform,” said Halif.

“We also strive for excellence in service through offering 24/7 customer service – via phone, email and live chat – to ensure our customers can always rely on us for a smooth journey,” he said.

Commenting on the sponsorshi­p, Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said: “Traveloka as a brand embodies the spirit of KL2017 where, through perseveran­ce and hard work, it has risen to become a significan­t player in South-East Asia.”
