Today I attended the Hornbill Festival at Tourism and Cultural Centre, Matic at Kuala Lumpur.
Horbill Festival is sort of “beauty contest” which features the beautiful costumes of the different ethnic communities of Sabah and Sarawak.
Dato Seri Nazri, the Minister of Tourism made a surprise visit to the function without prior notice. He and his officers were very impressed to see the well organized beauty pageant organized by a society led by Dr Laurence.
I am glad that he came to this event. Hopefully the ministry can put this programme in the Tourism calendar and can assist the programme further in future.
