The launch of the Marriott Bonvoy Be Bus follows hot on the heels of the release of Kumandang, a song and music video released in May 2024, a collaboration between Marriott Bonvoy and Malaysian artiste Alif Satar and The Locos, aimed at elevating hospitality service culture in Malaysia.
Each pitstop is open to the public and visitors are invited to meet Marriott Bonvoy associates to discover exciting employment opportunities at Marriott Bonvoy hotels and resorts throughout the country.
