| The Official Launch Of Kumandang with Alif Satar & The Locos At W Hotel Kuala Lumpur |
Marriott International in Malaysia had created a memorable journey when they successfully launched "Kumandang", a first-of-its-kind collaboration with renowned Malaysian artist Alif Satar & The Locos to showcase Marriott's hospitality excellence through the power of music.
This campaign started as a spirited songwriting competition for the associates of Marriott Bonvoy's portfolio of hotels and resorts in Malaysia that was inspired by Marriott's service culture and its seven hospitality principles;
- Warmth and Welcome
- Attentiveness
- Efficiency
- Empathy
- Communication
- Flexibility
- Consistency

| Media Event For The Launch Of Kumandang At W Hotel Kuala Lumpur |
This competition received great support from associates around Malaysia with a total of over 35 creative entries and Fairfield by Marriott Bintulu Paragon emerged as the winner and was featured in the "Kumandang" song and music video with Alif Satar & The Locos.
The launching ceremony was another great success as the event was supported by Global Payments, hosted by Ramesh Jackson, Area Vice President for Indonesia & Malaysia, Marriott International, and graced by Manoharan Periasamy, Director-General for Tourism Malaysia, along with Alif Satar & The Locos - Efry Arwis, Faliq Auri, and Tam Cobain.
Among the other notable attendees were Robin Rangel, Country Manager of Global Payments, George Varughese, Multi-Property Vice President of Putrajaya & Greater KL, Marriott International, and Sabrina Abdullah, Country Director of Human Resources, Marriott International.

| Welcome Remarks by Ramesh Jackson, Area Vice President for Indonesia & Malaysia, Marriott International |
We have been doing business here in Malaysia since 1996, a time when Malaysian hospitality was at its peak and renowned world over. We were known for going above and beyond to serve our guests. And everything we did was from the heart, with a great sense of pride and enthusiasm...and always, always with a smile. said Ramesh Jackson, Area Vice President, Indonesia & Malaysia, Marriott International.
For your information, Malaysia welcomed almost 6 million foreign tourists arriving in Q1 this year with a growth of 32.5% compared to last year and we are expecting to welcome 32 million tourists that are forecasted to arrive, spurred by Malaysia's chairmanship of ASEAN that will be held in 2025.
Therefore, it is more than ever crucial to rekindle the spirit of Malaysian hospitality and this collaboration exemplifies our hotels and resorts' ongoing commitment to exceeding guest expectations, fostering deep connections, and championing hospitality excellence.
We need to be reminded of the qualities that made us who we are in the first place and recommit to the values that define us. In simpler words, we want to be the best and to look after our guests as they truly deserve. Ramesh Jackson concluded.

Kumandang X Alif Satar & The Locos Lyric
In Marriott's embrace
Where dreams ignite
Where a guest is a star
In the Marriott night
From lobby to suite
A tale to tell
In Marriott's embrace
Where memories swell
Ohhh! Ohhh! Yeahhh!
Salam mesra menyapa,
Hangat peluk selamat,
Perhatian terasa,
Tiada tandingan senantiasa,
Efisiensi bercahaya,
Terang benderang di sini,
Empati memahami,
Setiap detik bererti,
Komunikasi bersahaja,
Suara terdengar,
Kelenturan layanan,
Keinginan pelanggan dihargai,
Konsisten dalam cinta,
Bagai lagu terulang,
Marriott membara,
Tiap detik bermakna...
In Marriott's embrace,
Where dreams ignite,
Where a guest is a star,
In the Marriott night,
From lobby to suite,
A tale to tell,
With Marriott Bonvoy,
Where memories swell,
Ohhhh!
Where memories swell.
