With almost 17 bands from Poland, Canada, China, Portugal, Hungary, New Zealand, United States, Morocco, Finland, France, Chile, Tanzania, Korea, Indonesia, and Malaysia’s very own bands made the event a dazzling array of lights, music and dance. Oudaden from Morocco, Zawose Family Africa, Noreummach of Korea and Sarawak’s Lan-E-Tuyang stole my heart. They were not just dynamic, but unique in their presentation. Highly energetic, they captured the hearts of all present. Overall they created an euphoric atmosphere that sent people crazy.
I enjoyed not just being part of the world music festival but also the display of Sarawak's Cultural uniqueness at the Santubong Cultural Village.
I stayed at Sarawak Village House with offers home stay concept.....
Some of the vegetarian dishes served....and unique lighting.
