OBJECTIVE
It’s actually a MAH Sarawak Chapter annual event created as an alternative to the annual Sarawak Inter-Hotel Cultural & Ethnic Dance Competition which was held last year. So the idea of this Amazing Hunt was mooted and planned for the hotel industry staffs to get together as well as to promote and create awareness of the various tourist attractions and places of interest in and around Kuching and of course to do it with fun. Unlike the Cultural & Ethnic Dance Competition which is only restricted to member hotels, this Amazing Hunt will be open to our fellow tourism industry players and also the general public.
We also plan to work with the main tourism bodies such as the Sarawak Tourism Board (STB) and Sarawak Convention Bureau (SCB) to organize and promote this Amazing Hunt on a larger scale and maybe incorporate it as one of Kuching’s annual international tourism event if this proves successful.

I’m aware of the event you mentioned above and also The Great Miri Adventure this weekend. Amazing Race hunt is not really my cup of Starbucks so it doesn’t get much bytes space on this blog.
Thank you for the detailed info.

wow…the most expensive hunt I’ve seen. RM800! that’s like RM 200 per person and the prizes are….=.=”

hur,
Based on last year’s MAH Hunt, apart from the cash prizes, they’re also throwing in hotel vouchers, most of which are for one night—without breakfast.
There was a big feast last year… in fact TWO glorious meals. After hunting for a few hours, we stopped at a huge hotel, had heavy lunch, spent more than the scheduled time, and then everyone had to do the F1 rush to Melaka. Then walk hunt before another big dinner that night. Quite an experience.
