KUCHING, June 19 — The Rainforest World Music Festival 2022 achieved its targeted number of 12,000 visitors, said Sarawak Tourism, Creative Industry and Performing Arts Minister Datuk Seri Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah.

“On the first day, we had about 2,000 visitors, second day we had 7,000 and today we got another 3,000 visitors. I was not expecting this but to my surprise many have come over to Sarawak to enjoy the show. Top five physical attendees are Malaysia, Singapore, the United Kingdom, Indonesia and Australia,” he said.

Meanwhile, Minister of Tourism, Arts and Culture Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri said the number of visitors from overseas was not very encouraging as many countries still imposed mandatory quarantine and this deterred people from travelling.
