Malaysia's 2nd International Fireworks Competition

I went for Malaysia's International Fireworks Competition in Putrajaya, last Saturday. It was China's go for the tittle, and it was awesome with tons and tons of crowds. Small stalls selling laksa, keropok lekor, tidbits, drinks and even those glow-in-the-dark bangles are everywhere, and it is exactly like pasar malam, but cooler and at least something to expect of the night.. My mum was so excited, for the first time she don't mind sitting on the grass. I, on the other hand, busy taking pictures of people and the fireworks. *note that the video and the photos aboveare taken from my camera. The photos after that are gorgeous, so it wasn't mine :)* Natijah dari cerita ini, ianya hebat.. Great show..

Enjoy!

The Ministry of Tourism will again host the Malaysia International Fireworks Competition this August in Putrajaya. Renowned world-class Fireworks Teams from around the world will compete for the 'Golden Merdeka Trophy'. The Ministry has announced that there will not be any Tickets sold this year at the Event. The event is Free for All! Speakers will be installed at the public viewing locations, enabling the spectators to enjoy the 'Musical Firework Displays'. Entrance to PICC is Free.

For two weeks in August, the skies over Putrajaya are to be lit up by a series of pyrotechnics displays. The pyrotechnic artistry will be different from regular fireworks shows as this one is meticulously choreographed to music.

For 25 minutes on each competitive night, the maestros of the night will AWE spectators with breathtaking presentations of FIRE, LIGHT with MUSIC. Prior to the final night, a judging panel of international and local celebrities will select a winner. Although a prestigious award will be presented to the victorious team, their true prize is audience delight.
The competition, last year, drew an average of 350,000 to 400,000 live audiences to PUTRAJAYA each competition night, breaking all time record in attendance. Total numbers attended including international and domestic to urist for 2 weeks was estimated at whopping 3.5 Million people.
