my practical involvement

assalamualaikum :)

Before i join the TIC organization (Kelantan Tourist Information Centre), i don't even know much and never went to any events related to the Kelantanese traditional games or activities even i am a kelantanese, huhu..maybe its due to my parents do not expose much about that to me and it seems not essential at all to them..


btw, here are some events that i have joined..its really enjoyable indeed.. :)

the first one is shadow puppet show or it is called 'wayang kulit'.

it was held at the cultural centre in Kota Bharu, just around the corner of TIC office. it was started around 9pm and ended at 12pm.







the photos are not really clear though :(
wayang kulit is one of the unique and indigenous theatre shows which use shadow and light base to express the stories. the casting is made up from the carving of buffalo skin and attached to bamboos. and when it is put behind the white fabric and under a lamp as a source og light, the shadow will be display on fabric skin.
the stories of "wayang kulit" are normally based on the classic tale and have moral value that can be followed by all walks of life. it might use the traditional languages and melody based on the stories. it includes the stories from India classic poem " the Mahabhrata " and "Ramayana" which are very famous.
this play which has been generated from one generation to generation is normally performed at night during gatherings and fairs. the puppeteer, called "Tok Dalang" is the main performer who manipulates the "Wayang Kulit" puppets while narrating the story.

We nOt KnOw...Now We KnoW.. :)


It such a coincidence for us
to be known each other
We almost strangers even we've
met each other a long time already
But the relationship that was
built as friend is surprisingly
Make us closer from time to time

It is from the sincerity to
support each other,
help each other,
treat each other with concern and warmth,
share stories whether it is sad or happy,
exchanging point of views and nice pictures,
learning language,
webcaming and chatting till late night,
spending precious time,
giving piece of advices on anything while making us boost both of our spirit...

It is really nice when come to think of it
has someone who accompanied us
when we come from different personalities...
to complete each other
where it can make us strong to face the world
which full with the test from the Al-Mighty

May Allah S.W.T bless us..
Amen..

This is not a piece about me
But it is about the ship between me n mi :)
