Kota Kinabalu: The Sabah International Convention Centre (SICC) continues to become the ultimate venue for major events with its recent hosting of the Cult Malaysia Day Parade.

On Sunday, State Tourism, Culture and Environment Assistant Minister Datuk Joniston Bangkuai launched the car parade in conjunction with the 60th Malaysia Day celebration.
Present were SICC Chief Executive Officer Datuk Rosmawati Lasuki, Car and Urban Lifestyle Trends (Cult) event director Azlin Awang Chee and Cult promotion director John Kong.
“SICC commitment to community engagement and fostering the spirit of unity is truly commendable,” said Joniston.
“Without their support and dedication, an event of this magnitude would not have been possible.”

The Cult Malaysia Day Parade was a vibrant display of diverse cars, with some adorned with Sabah and national flags, setting the stage for the upcoming Cult car show event in November, aptly named “The Apex of Car Culture in Borneo.”
In 2022, Cult hosted its inaugural event, attracting a participation of 650 cars and drawing in 20,000 visitors to the SICC.
