Showcasing Malaysia through food, culture and handicrafts

An International Fair was held at the Escuela Campo Alegre (ECA) School on 24 March 2012. This school fair is held yearly.  Food prepared by the ladies of  Perwakilan included freshly fried spring rolls, curry puffs, samosas, fried rice noodles and banana fritters. Handicrafts such as brooches, batik kaftans, key chains,  scarfs, selendang and costume jewellery which were also sold.  For the parade, the Malaysian participants (including local staff at the Embassy) wore traditional clothes and depicted a Malay wedding couple.  Children were attracted to the “spin and paint” corner which was part of  the Malaysian  booth.  Some of the proceeds from the sale was donated to the ECA fund for charity projects.
