New Kawasaki 4S centre opens in Kuching, Sarawak

The new centre is operated by Ghee Hua Co Sdn Bhd, one of the brand's longest and most significant authorised dealers in the Kuching region.

The new Kawasaki Kuching is the first All-Star Dealer in East Malaysia, offering enthusiasts an extensive collection of Kawasaki bikes.

Before that, it had been a trusted MODENAS partner since August 2000, contributing significantly to MODENAS' business and product promotion over the past 24 years.

A total of 700 attendees witnessed the launch of the new Kawasaki 4S centre and enjoyed several thrilling activities, including a motor show and Sarawakian cultural activities like bertandak bermukun and kompang performances. The presence of club members, who actively participated in cooking local Sarawakian dishes, further contributed to this memorable and culturally vibrant celebration.

With the expansion of its footprint in Kuching, EMOS anticipates a thriving market for Kawasaki and Modenas bikes and scooters in Sabah and Sarawak. The company plans to increase the number of Kawasaki 4S centres to 10 and appoint 5 additional All-Star Dealers in 2024.
