Indulge & Explore<br />

7 December 2015 – 6 <strong>March</strong> 2016<br />

It was a day filled with lots of fun, games and laughter. Malaysia Airports’ Indulge & Explore Campaign was met with great<br />

success with over 40,000 travellers participating in its weekly contests and kinetic augmented reality games to win instant prizes<br />

from participating retailers at the airports.<br />

With an aim that focuses on conservation and personal wellness, the campaign drew enthusiastic response from thousands<br />

of travellers passing through KLIA and klia2 since its launch on 7 December 2015. The only rule of the game was travellers<br />

had to first spend a minimum of RM200 at any F&B or retail outlets at KLIA and/or klia2 terminals. They then have to scan the<br />

receipts of their purchases at one of the 14 automated e-kiosks located throughout the terminals to make their entries count.<br />

the Grand Prize awaits! You can Become a Panda Volunteer!<br />

As the campaign came to an end on 6 <strong>March</strong> 2016, the weekly prizes comprising seven 3-day Lovina Dolphin Experience trip<br />

for two to Lovina, Bali; and six 3-day New Leaf Detox Programme for two at Koh Samui, Thailand were all given away. The<br />

winner of the Grand Prize – a 6-Day Panda Experience Programme where the winner will savour the opportunity of a lifetime<br />

as a ‘panda volunteer’ – is yet to be announced. So if you happen to be in the running, don’t give up hope yet. Keep a close<br />

eye on our announcements from the Indulge & Explore social media platforms – Indulge at Malaysia Airports Facebook page<br />

and Indulgemyairports on Instagram.<br />

Airport Jungle Book Experience<br />

As part of its campaign to support the<br />

environment, Malaysia Airports took the<br />

opportunity to run conservation awareness<br />

activities by first organising a quick course<br />

in nature and conservation for students.<br />

Through a guided walk, 14 children<br />

from Baitul Barakah Wal-Mahabbah<br />

Orphanage explored the jungle walk<br />

complete with a waterfall located within<br />

KLIA. They were mesmerised by the 5,000<br />

trees encompassing more than 30 species<br />

planted at the international hub.<br />

Relieving Stress Through<br />

Yoga At klia2<br />

Malaysia Airports understands the kind<br />

of stress both travellers and airport staff<br />

face every day, which is why a Yoga and<br />

Stress Management talk was organised<br />

at klia2 to help travellers and airport staff<br />

cope with the rigours of travel and work<br />

stress. Conducted by Dr. Dhilip Kumar,<br />

the talk focused on breathing techniques<br />

and basic yoga movements as ways to<br />

manage everyday stress.<br />

Zoo Negara Reaches Out<br />

At klia2<br />

Rounding up the efforts in raising<br />

conservation awareness was a two-day<br />

activity which involved face-painting<br />

sessions, interactive talks on endangered<br />

animals, chicken dance routines and<br />

animal adoption drive. This was held in<br />

collaboration with Zoo Negara where the<br />

national zoo held a two-day outreach<br />

programme at klia2 to educate Malaysians<br />

and foreigners on the role played by the<br />

zoo in wildlife conservation. As it is both<br />

an interactive and participative session,<br />

travellers had a whale of a time trying out<br />

the different activities.<br />
