Minggu Kebudayaan Melayu

Selamat Pagi!!!! :)

What is with the malay language?!?! Well, apart from it being our national language, KDU UC is now having our annual MALAY CULTURAL WEEK, held by non other than the Pre-University department students!!! Woo hoo!!!

Different from other years, this year's MCW, or MKM as we prefer to call it (Malam Kebudayaan Melayu) is unique due to our theme: Evolusi (evolution)

This year's theme promises that the malay culture you get to see are an evolving culture, seen from the 50s to the now.



the whole week contains many exciting events, from the first day all the way to the finale on Saturday, which is a dinner event, with a special guest performance. The special performance had been a staple with our annual dinner, with artists such as M. Nasir, Zainal Abidin and Aishah.

Beginning today (Monday - 18th July 2011), we open the week with the Offical launching that includes the launch of a Malay novel and the inter-school malay traditional dance competition.
Tuesday will see an Inter-school choral speaking competition while the next day (20th July) sees a treasure hunting competition!!! :)

Thursday is the Malay Cultural Carnival, an event not to be missed while Friday is our our traditional day, where many staffs and students are going to where our traditional clothes, showing not only the multiracial people in the college, but also relating to the national theme of 1Malaysia.

As I said, the MKM will culminate in a spectacular dinner event where malay cultural shows are presented to attendees during the dinner! Dinner price is RM50 for both the show and meal, held in our own KDU UC Auditorioum.



SO what are you waitng for? JOM, PERGI DAN BERGEMBIRA!!! :)

O.M.G. - a Shakespearean Interpretation

Shakespearean literature is a universal classic, no doubt about it. His poems and plays especially, his plays; have been used throughout the ages till today, in academics, socialites and others as well. His plays were either mirrored or adapted in many ways in modern fiction, be it written/graphic literature (Neil Gaiman's The Sandman)to modern songs/movies (Baz Luhrmann's 1996's Romeo and Juliet).
Now, why are we talking about Shakespeare? Well...

The play is given the title of O.M.G; an acronym for Oh My Girl. It is a modern adaptation of William Shakespeare's comedic play The taming of the Shrew. It is a musical romantic comedy on how love is not only sowed in a singular way and a sole intention, and how sometimes, true love and bloom with persistent patience on the stage of life.
Kristiana Padua is only well known for 2 things - her acid tongue and notorious reputation as the Shrew of Italy. Will this reputation however, ruin her chances of finding love in an arranged marriage with the newcomer in town, Paolo? Who will be the first to give in to love - the girl or the boy?
The purpose of this play is to raise funds for the Children Cancer Fund at University of Malaya's Medical Centre (UMMC/PPUM), where there is a need of medication, equipment and other supplies for the patients there. This play is aimed to assist the pediatric oncology patients, who are all between 4 months and 18 years old.
The target of our charity play is to raise a minimum of RM50,000 for the fund.
The charity play will be held on the 26th and 29th of January 2011. Both plays will be held at the newly renovated auditorium of KDU UC main campus, at Damansara Jaya. The preview will be opened to public at the price of RM15, with the play starting at 2pm.
The second play on the 29th is a part of a black tie dinner event, starting at 8pm to 10pm. Seats for the dinner and play are priced at RM100 & RM200 respectively.
More announcements in regards to this play are on the way in the near future.
Make your contributions to the fund by coming to the play!!! :)

Santa is coming to town...
