The Embassy of Malaysia in Belgrade visited the charming city of Kikinda in the autonomous province of Vojvodina, Serbia on 22 November 2019. Known for its “Kika”, one of the largest mammoth specimens ever discovered, the city is also the biggest winter stationary of long-eared owls, attracting more than 500 owls during the winter season.
During the visit, the Charge d’Affaires of the Embassy had a meeting with the Mayor of Kikinda, Mr. Pavle Markov and was given a tour of the city and its interesting attractions by the City Assembly Speaker Mrs. Stanislava Hrnjak. The visits to the Terra Sculpting Studio, Terra Museum, the Economics and Trade High School as well as the National Museum of Kikinda had provided an insight on Kikinda.
The people of Kikinda also had the opportunity to have a glimpse of the uniqueness of the Malaysian culture through the Malaysian-themed naïve paintings exhibition and the dance performances by the Embassy’s cultural troupe Chenderawasih. The students of the Economics and Trade High School also had the opportunity to have an interesting interactive session on Kikinda and Malaysia with the Charge d’Affaires.
The Embassy of Malaysia wishes to express its appreciation to the local government of Kikinda and its welcoming people for its warm hospitality and memorable experience. Perhaps we will see each other again in Kikinda’s Pumpkin Festival!
