Langkawi International Convention Centre • 22 November 2025
The Green & Geopark Excellence Awards 2025 illuminated the Langkawi International Convention Centre with a celebratory glow as leaders, innovators and sustainability advocates converged to honour outstanding achievements in eco-tourism and geopark stewardship across Malaysia.
Among the evening’s brightest moments was the proud representation from Sabah, whose delegation arrived in a graceful blend of traditional motifs and modern elegance. United in spirit, they showcased Sabah’s cultural richness and its growing influence in sustainable tourism.
A major highlight of the ceremony was the recognition of the Sabah Tourism Board, led by its Chief Executive Officer, Julinus Jeffery Jimit, who received the award for Best Sustainable and Inclusive Marketing Campaign. The accolade celebrated Sabah’s creative leadership in crafting tourism outreach that is community-driven, environmentally conscious, and inclusive of diverse voices from across the state’s cultural tapestry.
On stage, CEO Julinus Jeffery Jimit accepted the award with visible pride, lifting the trophy high as the ballroom responded with warm applause. The moment was further magnified by the backdrop screen, which displayed his portrait and the winning campaign title — a fitting tribute to a leader whose vision continues to elevate Sabah’s global tourism presence.
This year’s award ceremony underscored the power of purposeful tourism and responsible development. For Sabah, the night stood as a heartfelt affirmation of its commitment to preserving natural heritage while welcoming the world to experience its people, culture and landscapes with respect and sustainability at the forefront.
