Named after one of the most venerated trees in Asia, banyan trees can live for centuries, standing firmly, resilient against time and tide, a symbol of constancy in an ever-changing world. Its vast canopy provides shelter for weary travellers whilst its roots are deeply entrenched in its foundation, holding true to meaningful heritage with the memories of a time gone by. The book highlights not only the journey of Banyan Tree as a company, but the realisation of a concept, which at first is unbeknown to its founders, Executive Chairman Mr Ho Kwon Ping, Senior Vice President Ms Claire Chiang and Senior Vice President Mr Ho Kwon Cjan. Their single-minded ideal became intertwined with their vision for the brand, through an organic process of developing their own values and beliefs: tourism, as a powerful force for driving positive change in this world. To discover Banyan Tree's intriguing sustainability journey read Rooted in Sustainability book here.  Book Link: http://investor.banyantree.com/PDF/SR/Rooted-in-Sustainability-BT25-Book-2019.pdf   Nominate a Medical Professional for an All-Inclusive Luxury Escape – a Message of Thanks from Walk Into Luxury Walk into Luxury is giving away two places on its Cape to Cape Walk for use after COVID-19 travel restrictions lift, and it needs your help nominating front-line Australian medical workers to go in the draw.
