ExplorE our luxury DEstinations WorlDWiDE Welcome to 2012 and our third edition of Passport. As we usher in a new year, it’s natural to reflect on both the past 12 months and the year ahead. We are proud of the fantastic hotels we introduced in 2011, and as we continue with the most significant expansion in our history, we are thrilled to open four new hotels in incredible locales this year. We are also excited to share with you more unique guest stories, as well as a behind-the-scenes look at the culinary innovations and global influences of Corporate Chef Rainer Zinngrebe. Through it all, we remain incredibly grateful to have the support of our very best customers, many of whom we call good friends and who have a personal interest in the success of our company. We thank you for your loyalty, and we wish you a wonderful new year — full of good health, happiness and, of course, many more Ritz-Carlton experiences to come. 1 New Destinations 2➺ Explore Our Luxury Destinations Worldwide Destination: Kuala Lumpur D E S T i N aT i O N : K ua L a Lu m p u R Little more than a century old, Kuala Lumpur has quietly risen to become the fifth most popular tourist destination in the world, teeming with diverse cultures, deep traditions and memorable architecture. A center of commerce and shopping, the Malaysian capital also overflows with parks, shrines, art and other antidotes to the stresses of urban life. Situated in the prestigious Golden Triangle district, The Ritz-Carlton, Kuala Lumpur is a luxurious home base from which to explore the buzzing Bukit Bintang area, the historical City Center, Batu Caves, Chinatown, Merdeka Square and the spectacular Petronas Twin Towers, a requisite stop on any visit here. A rejuvenating treatment at the Spa Village in The Ritz-Carlton is the perfect way to wind down from an exciting day in this modern metropolis. 3 Culinary Spotlight: Chef Rainer Zinngrebe New Year’s in Hong Kong 4 Kelly Wood, Vice President Global Sales Organization, North America The Ritz-Carlton Rewards® Stories That Stay With You W W W. r i t z c a r l t o n . c o m ➺ Visit ritzcarlton.com/magazine fOR a PhOtO tOuR http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/KualaLumpur/Default.htm http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/Properties/KualaLumpur/Spa/Default.htm http://www.ritzcarlton.com/en/LetUsStay/Posts/Kuala_Lumpur_WI12 http://www.ritzcarlton.com
