Passengers arriving at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) on Saturday, 14 January 2012 were greeted with a flash mob as they made their way out of the Arrival Hall on Level 3. Much to the delight of unsuspecting onlookers, plus the odd stare in disbelief, visitors at KLIA witnessed some 100 singers and dancers break into spontaneous entertainment as part of Malaysia Airlines’ special flash mob event held to welcome the New Year with a bang.
Themed ‘Missing You’, the flash mob at the Arrival Hall lasting 10 minutes featured a fun medley of eight popular hit songs in various languages.
The event kick-started with Malaysia Airlines’ theme song “We fly” followed by Janet Jackson’s racy track ‘Miss You Much’ to set the tone for the flash mob in which a young man with a guitar in hand walked up to his girlfriend and suddenly broke into a song and dance. This was immediately followed in another corner of the Hall by a supposedly heart-broken young man belting out Rahim Maarof’s hit ‘Istana Menanti’ backed by a group singing acapella echoing his emotion. Soon after, the melodious sounds of popular Hindi tune ‘Aankhein Khuli’ from the movie Mohabbatein filled the air.
‘My Boyfriend’s Back’ showcased a group of guys returning from holiday only to be greeted by an enthusiastic group of girlfriends. Next was Richie Ren’s version of ‘Lang Hua Yi Duo Duo’ sung by a group of Chinese tourist lads, complete with group leader waving a flag, on their way out of the Arrival Hall door. Saving the best for last, the flash mob continued with hits ‘Rindu’, ‘Balik Kampung’ and ‘Signed, Sealed, Delivered,’ featuring Malaysia Airlines cabin crew in full uniform.
The ‘Missing You’ flash mob finale was a 200-strong group performance of ‘Akan Datang’ which had the audience clapping and cheering on the performers.
Flash mob is a new trend worldwide involving a sizeable group of people who, out-of-the-blue, break into a dance act at a public place, for just a brief time, and disperse into the crowd as soon as it ends.
Malaysia Airlines’ flash mob was put together with the talents from Kit Kat Klub a subsidiary of Enfiniti Vision Media, Malaysia Airlines staff & family, students from Unisel and renowned Malaysian professional dance choreographer Pat Ibrahim of Puteri Gunung Ledang, P. Ramlee and The Secret Life of Nora musicals fame
Venice… one of my favourite cities!
Departed Rome in the morning and stopped by Firenze. Firenze was beautiful! Post on Firenze will have to wait. Venice now. Instead of taking train or flight, we drove all the way from Rome. Nak experience road trippin in Italy (hohoh)… and we were going to Austria and Germany after Venice. The route was scenic!
Parked our rented car at the ferry terminal, and took the water taxi. We arrived in Venice Piazza San Marco at 7-ish PM.

Stayed at a beautiful quaint hotel near Piazza Saint Marco- Hotel San Gallo. The Hotel was only 50meters away from the piazza. These were the path we took to go to our hotel.



Quad-room for us. With extra beds. After checked-in, we went out for dinner.



Venice by day- for next post!
asyik stress je lately! tengah focus 2 bende now. work of course & family eurotrip.
holiday memang la seronok kan. but planning it.. gosh stressssss!!! sakit kepala macam stress ape jer! i’m a very detail person.. semua bende mesti nak clear cut, everything must be considered before making a decision- location+budget+comfort+timing+weather+risk+the attractions. i want to see all options i have. so, sakit la kepala. tourism is a serious and stressful industry! hahaha. but it is worth it kan.
Work wise since the new year- has been hectic. tak cukup tangan… banyak bende kene buat…. which is good. i need to improve my time management, my delegation skill and i need to work faster!
o yeah.. happy monday y’all.
When i was I was in school, i would spend the last 15 mins of my study time at library… browsing thru encyclopedias. for one particular reason- nak tengok colourful photos of other countries (tu pasal geography sentiasa highest score). i didnt read the entire encyclopedia description pun… i only read the photo captions and the statistics- population, type of industry, currency, climate, etc. And mesti nak ada atlas sekali. sebab nak tgk kat mana tempat ni… ? wht are the neighbouring countries? kalau bukan encyclopedia, i would look for photo and travel journals.
pernah borrow satu jurnal ni… journal malaysian climber naik gunung K2. that jurnal actually initiate my interest to travel to nepal. anyways…. so this habit terbawa-bawa sampai sekarang… except that i dont read encyclopedia dah la. instead, tengok travel channel.. tgk youtube, tgk tripadvisor. so bila start bercerita pasal holiday and travel, memang i could go on and on and on tak berenti renti. sbb semua tempat pun nak tengok…
