It has been a super-buzy month for me. Last two weeks Naga Rantau had been invited by the PSSGM Johor Bharu to do a demonstration during the Majlis Silaturrahim and the Sandang award ceremony to the Minister of Higher Education, YB Dato' Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin, a parliment representative of Pasir Gudang. From the invitation of brother Cikgu Azhar Daeng, we prepared the demo for a week before going there. Our team comprise of 45 UMP students, including me, my wife and the little Aryan, departing from Gambang and Pekan early in the morning. Arriving at Masai around 12 o'clock in the Afternoon, we were welcomed by the warm Gayong brothers and sisters, and a delicious Beriyani to fill up our stomach for the demo. We met Tok Ismail Jantan, Cikgu Zainal, Kapten Kudus, Cikgu Sazali, Cikgu Ramli Singapore, and all of the Gayong family from Singapore, Johor, UiTM Segamat, Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Selangor and Perak. Our demo team all together including myself is 27 persons. We started with the Tari Kain Tudung, the Jurus and the Buah with 12 Puteri Cindai. Our demo continued with the Duel of Parang-Rantai (Chain vs Machete), Duel of Sabit (Sickle), Duel of Kapak (Axe), Duel of Parang 3 (2 Machetes vs 1 machete), duel of Tombak (Spears) and Parang - Tekpi fighting (Machetes vs Sai). The demo was done successfully without any unwanted accident. I would like to thank the organizer for had invited Naga Rantau Universiti Malaysia Pahang to do the demo and a special thanks to Dato' Seri Khaled Nordin, for his motivating compliment to Naga Rantau team. Your words will be placed and kept preciously in every heart of Naga Rantau, and we will surely go a step more further to be one of the example of the best University co-curriculum association. Our mission is not limited only to the fence of UMP, but our mission is aimed to spread globally with a local approach.
