KUCHING: Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS) gave out Hari Raya cookies to various media organisations here yesterday (April 28).
Corporate Communications head Maclean Patrick Sibat presented the cookies to New Sarawak Tribune (Sarawak Tribune) and Suara Sarawak (SS) at the media organisation’s office.
Receiving the goodies were Sarawak Tribune and SS chief executive officer Dr Jeniri Amir, chief operating officer Mohamad Sardon Zainal and Business Development and Special Functions executive Dorge Rajah.
“Just as in previous years, we have prepared 300 bags of Raya cookies and we are distributing them to 20 media organisations around Kuching,” said Maclean.
He said the gesture was to get closer to media representatives who “always worked with UNIMAS for coverage of news or activities, or highlighted its researchers”.
“The cooperation between Sarawak Tribune and SS with UNIMAS is very much appreciated. So, this is just a small way for us to thank the media representatives,” he said.
Maclean said UNIMAS welcomed Sarawak Tribune and SS to collaborate with the university in terms of media coverage.
“Among the areas that we want to collaborate with is actually for more write-ups about our researchers and university’s success.
“There are a lot of research works that UNIMAS did but not highlighted,” he said
