KUCHING, Aug 4 ― Sarawak has been chosen to host the esteemed Asia-Pacific Film Festival 2024, Deputy Minister of Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Datuk Snowdan Lawan said.
The honour and the privilege of hosting APFF 2024 in Miri mid-2024, he said, is a significant boost to Sarawak’s burgeoning film industry. “Industry players including the production company, directors, producers, actors and actresses can come and set up their production house, in addition to discovering all things great about Miri,” he added.
Deputy Minister Datuk Sebastian Ting, meanwhile, expressed pleasure on the announcement of Miri as the APFF’s next host after Macau in China.“Just like how we see Aiffa when it was formed in 2013, we will see Sarawak becoming among the household for the film industry in Malaysia ten years from now,” said Ting.
