 Aryan... jgn nk brona brona!!!

Our first destination after UiTM Cendering (where our hostel was), was the ADUN Alor Limbat, where we started with a 1000 steps of walking. That was a lot for a father with a small boy and bags! ;) Our performance was the first round in the afternoon.

Every University came with their own cultural performers. It was only UMP who came with the Silat team instead of dancer,singer etc.. After being presented y the MC, we started our demo of the "Tarian Parang Gila", a summary of the technique of Parang with the additional of the other weapons choreographs.

After Alor Limbat, Festkum was then continued at Kedai Payang, at the centre market of the city. We didn't have any demo that day, so we took that chance to train a little bit for tomorrow afternoon and night.

Our last journey was at ADUN Seberang Takir, and it was a very new experience for us as it was raining dogs and cats in the afternoon. However that never hold us from doing our best to present the art of Silat Seni gayong. The floor was flooded and too slippery, but our team had successfully finished their demo without accident.

 Malam last di Seberang Takir. Me and Cikgu Zaki. 

Our demo continued with the first round during the opening from the YB Seberang Takir. With some little injuries of our Parang team, Alhamdulillah, no serious problem during the demo except that one of the machete that hold by our performer broke and the sharp blade was flying and almost hit a celebrity invited for that event! Luckily everyone was safe. Thank you brother Mat Over and brother Imuda for being cool and funny about that incident! ;)
