VMY 2007: Flora Fest 2007 Putrajaya
What are you doing this Saturday? If you do not have any plan yet, why not bring your family to Putrajaya and get you and your family members surrounded with flowers.
In conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007, the Malaysia Floral Fest is back with the biggest and most colourful display of flora in Malaysia. The theme for this year’s Flora Fest is Colours Of Harmony, as Malaysia’s colourful blooms represent the beautiful racial harmony found in Malaysia. For a whole week in January, several Putrajaya and Kuala Lumpur venues will be transformed with bright, colourful and fragrant blooms.
Inspired by past successes at the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Parade in USA, Malaysia’s very own floral parade will grace the launch of Malaysia Flora Fest 2007.
Originally introduced in 1991, Malaysia’s Floral Parade is the only such parade ever organized in Southeast Asia. And this year the parade will be more dazzling than ever. Participants from various organizations and state governments will try to outshine one another with their own floral creations.
The Floral Parade held in Putrajaya on 27 January 2007, is the highlight of the Malaysia Flora Fest 2007. This spectacular event showcases floats decorated with bright, colourful and fragrant flowers. The Floral Parade juries will select six floats and award them with individual recognitions based on the best original design, concept, construction, animation, flower display and of course, the float display that is best in line with this year’s theme, ‘Colours of Harmony.’
The decorated floats will then be on display for three days (27 - 29 January 2007) at an air-conditioned tent in Persiaran Perdana (Boulevard) Putrajaya.
