THE FORMER managing director of Worldwide Honey Tours, Susan Teng, is now heading the expansion of Viewers Choice Travel as general manager. Viewers Choice is planning to diversify from being a ticketing agent into MICE and corporate travel, special interest tours and wholesaling spa vacations.
Although new to the MICE industry, Viewers Choice Travel has already secured a number of small meetings for the rest of the year, said Teng.
“We recently took a meeting group of over 100 pax to Malacca, and have another coming up soon to Bangkok,” she said.
Viewers Choice Travel is part of a larger organisation called Viewers Choice, which according to the latter’s official website, conducts online product auctions, retails a range of insurance products and provides fuel charge cards to employees of the Temasek Group of companies.
Viewers Choice is owned by Asia Choice and SCS MNP, a subsidiary of communications group SingTel.
“Viewers Choice’s fuel charge card business serves over 20,000 employees of government-linked companies in Singapore, which is a great database to tap for Viewers Choice Travel’s services,” said Teng.
“I am also sourcing for an IT company to develop a website for Viewers Choice Travel,” she added.
