Share your best shots at La Promenade Mall this CNY

PHOTO CHALLENGE...Submit as many entries as you like with #HuatsUpLaPromenade and #LaPromenadeMall hashtags.

KUCHING, Jan 29: Hock Seng Lee (HSL) has launched a #HuatsUpLaPromenade photo contest at La Promenade this Chinese New Year.

According to its digital marketing manager Sophia Ong, the month-long photo challenge will run until Feb 28, 2022 with prizes worth nearly RM3,000 to be won.

The visitors only have to take photos of the mall landscaping, its new year decor, tenants’ good food and generally have a fantastic time.

Photos should be uploaded with #HuatsUpLaPromenade and #LaPromenadeMall hashtags. All entries must be set to ‘public’ on either Facebook or Instagram.

A panel of experts included photographers from Ben’s Medium.

Winners shall be announced in early March and the winning photos will be celebrated in a gallery on HSL Group’s websites and social media. Photos may also appear in Living Moments, which is HSL’s newsletter.

“You can submit as many entries as you want. Some tips for participants: We’re looking for the best composition and we like fun, creative entries.

“Photos that are the most photoshopped or edited may not necessarily win. We also enjoy looking at photos that reflects Sarawak’s multi-cultural harmony,” Ong said in a statement yesterday (Jan 28).

This is the mall’s second Chinese New Year. New tenants include Zoro by Domus Group, NOMS, Fun Hut, MR DIY and Hoan Gallery.

“Every tenant has their own CNY promos. Do check them out. There are many time-limited stuff, like the new Mandarin Mocha drink at Black Bean Coffee & Tea,” she added.

Among others is Valentine Challenge organised by Sweat Factory which is designed for couples to work out and compete as a pair. Most hardworking couple will win a fully-paid, multi-course meal, at the high-end Zoro restaurant with extra gift vouchers on Feb 14.

Other major events at La Promenade Mall this February include the starting of Leonard Siaw’s live painting sessions. Siaw is attempting a national record for the largest single-piece canvas painting at the mall measuring 15-meter wide, which is larger than two terraced houses put together.

BONSAI…Sarawak Open 2022 at La Promenade Mall will be the largest ever with 168 participating trees.

On Feb 23 to 28, the ‘Sarawak Open — Bonsai & Suseiki Championship’, which is the largest ever with 168 entries, will be held at La Promenade Mall. The Sarawak Open is free for all to view. There will be talks and demonstrations.
