Klang
(Malaysia): An ethnic Indian chef and restaurateur has
been made Turkey's brand ambassador to Malaysia.
John Anbarasu Suppiah, the director of Let's Travel N Cook, has
been selected by Turkish Airlines and Turkey's tourism board to
promote the country's culture and cuisine among Malaysians, the
Turkish embassy announced here Saturday.
"He will also be promoting Malaysia to the Turkish people," an
embassy official was quoted as saying by The Star newspaper.
"The number of Malaysians visiting Turkey is increasing, with
20,000 tourists last year alone," said the official.
Suppiah, whose company is popular for promoting cross-border
cuisine and travel, said he would conduct cooking demonstrations
in Turkey.
"Malaysian spices and those from Turkey are very different. I will
be creating recipes which combine both," he said.
