GEORGE TOWN: Penang has appointed Kedah-born actress and singer Lee Sinje as its tourism ambassador. Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said on his Facebook page: “We believe that Miss Lee is the perfect candidate to become our ambassador because of her massive following in Asian countries, especially in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, many parts of China and of course, Malaysia."
Sinje, he said, has acted in many award winning movies such as 'Ice Kacang Puppy Love', 'Re-cyle' and 'Koma'. “Her talent in acting has scored her numerous international awards in her career, which includes Best Actress at the Golden Horse Award, Hong Kong Film Festival and Hong Kong Golden Bauhinia Award.
“She is also among the very few Asian artists to be awarded the Best Newcomer Award at the Berlin Film Festival in 2001 for her role in 'Betelnut Beauty',” Guan Eng added. The multiple award-winning Sinje, who is based in Taiwan, made her name starring in the Pang Brothers production 'The Eye' (2002), which won her three best actress awards.
