LagiSatu.com was developed by a Malaysian – Austrian team, headed by Faeez Fadhlillah and Juergen Gallistl.
Speaking at the launch of the search engine, Faeez Fadhlillah said, “LagiSatu.com removes the hassle of sifting through endless hotel websites and trying to find the best rooms for the lowest prices, offering travellers across the globe a way in which to streamline their results and find their perfect destination for less.
“We envisage our new search engine as a saving grace for those who are searching for the cheapest hotel deals. It completely removes the hassle of comparing multiple websites manually and provides inbound and outbound travellers with the best hotel rates at a single click.”
