Resorts World Cruises, Asia’s luxury and dynamic lifestyle cruise brand together with Malaysia’s SURIA FM radio station celebrated a new Malaysia Book of Records achievement on the Genting Dream as the ‘First Radio Station to Broadcast Onboard A Cruise Ship’. The setting of the new record was achieved during the Genting Dream 3 Night
roundtrip cruise (9 – 12 January 2023) that departed from Port Klang in Malaysia, which was also
held in conjunction with SURIA FM’s 15th Anniversary – Malaysia’s Top 3 ranked radio station with
over 3.5 million listeners.
For the Malaysia Book of Records attempt, Resorts World Cruises hosted a total of 71 invited guests
on the 18-storey Genting Dream cruise ship, comprising of SURIA FM’s popular local DJs, lucky radio
contest winners, crew and technical sound engineering, as well as Malaysian celebrities, influencers,
media and also the Malaysia Book of Records official representatives to witness and certify this firstof-a-kind achievement in Malaysia. As part of this milestone celebration, the Malaysia Book of
Records representatives presented the certificates to the SURIA FM and Resorts World Cruises
representatives during a special ceremony that was held exclusively at Palm Court on the Genting
Dream.
“It truly has been a wonderful partnership with SURIA FM to celebrate their 15th Anniversary together
since mid-November 2022. On behalf of Resorts World Cruises and the crew of the Genting Dream,
we are absolutely delighted to be part of this Malaysia Book of Records achievement and to end our
collaboration at the beginning of the year on such a high note with SURIA FM as the ‘First Radio
Station to Broadcast onboard a Cruise Ship’. Our collaboration is timely as our ship continues to
homeport in Port Klang until early 2024 to offer a series of cruises to Penang, Singapore and Phuket
with certified Halal food and beverage offerings, enabling us to further grow and promote cruise
vacations as an option among Malaysians, especially for the Malay market segment”, said Mr. Michael
Goh, President of Resorts World Cruises.
