KOTA KINABALU, SABAH – Star Cruises together with the Sabah Hotel Association recently organized a special early Christmas visit to the Children’s Pediatric Oncology ward at the Likas Hospital in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah (Malaysia).

During the visit to the Likas hospital, magician Leslie McKinney from SuperStar Aquarius put on a special magic show for the children at the ward, dazzling the kids with his tricks and illusions. He also had the opportunity to teach some of the children a variety of magic tricks for them to learn and showcase their talents. In addition, Star Cruises’ very own adorable mascot, Captain Charlie also made a special appearance to perform a short dance and fun routine for the children, together with the crew members, as well as the international professional dancers of SuperStar Aquarius. They also performed Christmas carols for the children with many recognizable Christmas tunes.
The festive celebration continued with Santa Claus stopping by to spread more Christmas joy all around the Children’s Pediatric Oncology Ward, giving out goody bags and Christmas cookies baked by SuperStar Aquarius’ Executive Chef Harald Markt and his team. The Executive Chef also made a Christmas Log Cake for the children on this special occasion. With the help of the Santa Rinas, Santa Claus also visited the children at their respective wards, surprising them with Christmas presents donated by the Sabah Hotel Association. Many of the SuperStar Aquarius crew members together with the staff of the Sabah Hotel Association also had the chance to get to know and chat with children during this memorable Christmas visit to the Children’s Pediatric Oncology ward at the Likas Hospital in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah (Malaysia). It was truly a meaningful Christmas celebration for all.
