KUCHING: Exhibitors from Malaysia, China, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand gathered at Borneo Convention Centre Kuching to showcase a variety of garden and ornamental plants.
Orchids featured prominently in the first Borneo International Garden Expo Sarawak, but other plants were on display as well.
“I previously taught science in tuition classes and my students had only seen the Venus flytrap in their textbooks. Meanwhile, Benchaphon Sriranasunt from Thailand’s Kokkok Orchids, said orchids were popular as they came in many varieties and were easy to care for. “By promoting the rare plant industry and its tourism potential, Sarawak can diversify its tourism industry and boost economic growth,” he said.
“It will serve as a platform for us to work together towards a better future for generations to come,” he said.Venus flytraps were among the more unusual plants exhibited at the garden show. - ZULAZHAR SHEBLEE / The Star
