17 December 2016, Helsinki - Once again, the Embassy of Malaysia celebrates its traditional Pikkujoulu with Malaysians residing in Finland with HE Dato' Blanche Olbery, Ambassador of Malaysia to Finland as the main host of the reception. The annual event, co-hosted and co-organized together with the Finland-Malaysia Association (FMA) was attended by almost seventy guests.
During the reception, guests were treated to a sumptious lunch, provided by the officials and staff of the Embassy, as well as contribution by attending guests, in the spirit of sharing during the festive season.
The Christmas spirit was even merrier with apperance by Joulupukki, (or Santa Claus) as known in Finland to give out candies to children and "children at heart".
