EVERYTHING IS GREAT
WITH SUMI SURIA !
Sumi Suria Dive & Tours Sdn. Bhd. was established on March 28, 2019. The company is a partnership consisting of 2 individuals, focusing on the business of tour management and operations as its primary focus. Owned 100% by Sabah's Bumiputera, it was developed to meet the needs of both local and international tourists, particularly dealing with registered tour agencies around the east coast of Sabah, namely Lahad Datu, Semporna, and Tawau. The company is headquartered at Kilometer 13/Batu 8, Jalan Silam Off Jalan Tawau, facing the Bandar Borneo Industrial Center, Jalan Silam, Lahad Datu. It is strategically located along the road connecting the regions of Sandakan, Lahad Datu, Semporna, and Tawau, making it a focal point for tourists.

This business plan outlines the implementation of a project in Lahad Datu, Sabah, and other areas like Semporna, Sabah. The company is led by two knowledgeable, certified, and experienced managers in the port, tourism, and agriculture sectors.
​
The Malaysian government encourages domestic entrepreneurs to participate in the tourism business. The Ministry of Tourism, Arts, and Culture Malaysia (2021) launched the Malaysia Tourism Incentive Fund (GAMELAN) to promote and market the tourism sector, both domestically and internationally. Additionally, they initiated the 'Jom Dive!' campaign in collaboration with the Malaysian Scuba Diving Association to encourage Malaysians to visit the country's islands and enjoy the marine diversity, contributing to the economic recovery.
​
Given the demand for scuba diving services in restricted areas like Sipadan Island, Semporna, Sabah, local agencies have yet to fully meet the needs of special tourists. Therefore, we've taken proactive steps, aligning with government initiatives, to boost tourism activities. While various tourism products have been identified, our focus is on scuba diving and agrotourism expeditions, as they have proven beneficial to our company. Additionally, this type of agrotourism also makes our country more well-known in the world, showcasing the diverse and unique experiences it has to offer.
​

Bhd. isn't just a company, it's an invitation to explore, to discover, and to revel in the allure of Malaysia's best-kept secrets.
