He said the expo and conference offer Sarawak an opportunity to showcase its unique talents and skills to the world. 'It has the potential to transform Sarawak into a premier tourism destination, attracting visitors from near and far who are eager to experience the rich tapestry of our cultural heritage and witness the skill and creativity of our artisans first-hand,' he told a press conference here today.

It will also help to foster a greater appreciation for local crafts and traditions, he added.
