Over the years, he had served in numerous departments in the industry. Among them are the front office, learning and development, marketing, corporate planning etc.

“Although with the current pandemic situation hotels are facing tough challenges for getting business, I am confident that with the new team members and determination, we can make some positive changes at Mercure Penang Beach,” said Navin.

Some on the activities they have embarked on are the weekend craft and culture market which brings vendors selling various trinkets, crafts, clothes, food/drinks and a place to meet up.
