IN SUPPORT of the upcoming Borneo Cultural Festival (BCF), STM Lottery Sdn Bhd (STM Lottery) donated RM8,000 to Sibu Municipal Council (SMC).
This year’s festival, themed “The Rhythm of Borneo”, will run from July 3 to 12 at Dataran Tun Tuanku Bujang Phases 1 and 2 in Sibu town.

The contribution was presented by STM Lottery Sarawak assistant regional manager Henry Liew to SMC chairman Clarence Ting at the local council’s premises.
Liew said this was the second time the company had supported the festival.
“Last year was our first time contributing towards the BCF,” he told reporters.
He added that the donation was part of STM Lottery’s corporate social responsibility, as BCF was a community festival being organised by the local council.
Ting expressed his appreciation for the sponsorship.
He encouraged more companies to come forward to lend their support.
“We are truly grateful to those who have stepped up to contribute to the BCF.
“We hope the companies will continue to support us with even more funding to help organise the festival in future,” he said.
