I wanna be in the "theme" so maybe some inspirational Malaysian flag colours like Yellow , blue & red ! Time for a little colour blocking experiment :D
A lil' history behind this grand event is .... Malaysia Day is the day Malaya , Sabah , Sarawak and Singapore came together and become one as Malaysia . But this year is going to be extra
special as there are also celebrating Merdeka Day .
Plenty of us have been neglecting Merdeka Day for the past few years due to the fasting month . But we shall neglect no more .
I say this is your chance to show your appreciation to this beautiful country of ours .
Its not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country - JFK .
Events on the day are as so :-
- Malaysian Food Festival with over 30 food stalls selling all your favourite Malaysian delicacies
- Performances including traditional Sarawakian and Sabahan dances, Orang asli nose flute performance, lion dance, dikir barat performance with over 70 performers from Kelantan.
- traditional Malaysian games
- Malaysian singer-songwriters such as Azmyl Yunor, Amirah Ali, 628 accapella group etc
- Street Joget Party ala BB Park finale
- Malaysian art exhibition featuring Yee I Lann and Anurendra at Leonardos Wine Loft
- Forums and talks on Voice of the Moderates, the Environment, in Bed with Malaysia etc,
- Fund raising dinners for Loyar Burok UndiMalaysia project, IDEAS, PUSAKA and SIS
- over 15 NGOs educating Malaysians on their different causes
and much much more.
