Speaking at a press conference after chairing a meeting for the event yesterday, he said the Council was confident that BCF 2009 would be a grandeur event for the town as it was also jointly promoting the Visit Sibu Year this year.

Daniel said this year’s BCF would be the eighth in the series and would take place from July 3-11 at the Town Square.
