The staff of The Light Hotel Penang were honoured for their dedication and hard work during a memorable staff appreciation party held in the hotel’s grand ballroom.
A total of 250 employees from various departments arrived in style, dressed in their best, ready to enjoy an evening of celebration and camaraderie.
Welcoming the team were General Manager Raj Kumar and his management team, alongside Managing Director Tan Sri Dato Ramesh and the board of directors.
Among them were Dato KK Sihabutheen Kirudu Mohamed, (Executive director Light Hotel (M) Sdn Bhd), Dato’ Uswath Khan Kirudu Mohamed, Naresh Ramesh and Sharath Ramesh (Director The Light Hotel (M) Sdn Bhd),
In his heartfelt address, Raj expressed sincere gratitude to the team for their loyalty and teamwork.
“We have also upgraded our rooms and other facilities to offer the best experience for our guests and customers. With your continued support and cooperation, we will take the hotel’s success to even greater heights,” said Raj.
The evening was filled with vibrant entertainment and engaging performances, setting a festive mood. As guests enjoyed a sumptuous spread of local and international cuisines, 33 long-serving employees were recognised for their commitment and contribution — with Raj Kumar himself among the award recipients.
They were each presented with a Samsung watch.
Highlights of the night included staff performances, long service awards, a best-dressed competition, and the highly anticipated lucky draw, where the grand prize was a motorbike.
The celebration continued late into the night, leaving everyone with fond memories and renewed motivation.
