Culture on show

TRADITIONAL arts, crafts, dance and cuisine are being showcased at Malaysia Fest '95 in Kuala Lumpur.

The capital will celebrate national culture in a summer spectacular from September 16-30.

Malaysia Fest is being launched with a star-studded night of dance, music and song at the Putra World Trade Centre.

All major shopping centres across the Klang Valley will be staging craft festivals.

Top hotels will each 'adopt' different states to stage food promotions of national cuisine.

At the Malaysia Tourist Information Complex, 'Heritage Cuisine' will be featured along with a theatre show, Scorpion Orchid, staged by the Actors' Studio; a mini-festival; cultural performances from various states; and a top-spinning contest.
