MFest 2006

This year's Malaysia Fest (16th anniversary) was held on 3rd September in conjunction with Merdeka Day on the 31st August. It was a super sunny day in Tumbalong Park, Darling Harbour, where the biggest Malaysian event in Sydney was run by the 4 Malaysian Student Organisations of UNSW, USyd, UTS and Macquarie Uni. Here are some shots at what happened to refresh your memory or simply to invoke the feeling of regret in you if you've missed it! :p


The crowd...




Persuaded this guy to give me a pose while lining up in the super long queue to get some good lunch...




The loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong queues at the stalls...




The food... (Yummy!)




The ulek mayang




A scene from Puteri Gunung Ledang




The Asmaradana dance




An Aussie enquiring at the Tourism Malaysia counter




The MASCA Idol 2006 serenading the audience




A lucky raffles draw winner...




More dances... This time, it's the joget...




The colourful costumes of Malaysia as paraded in the fashion show




A participant having a go at guessing the weight of the durian




Guess what the winner walked away with? :p




"One festival, many faces, a world of excitement!"



Viva MFest! ^_^
