We are delighted to invite you to a special celebration in honour of both Merdeka and the Swiss National Day! The significant month of Aug marks the independence days of both our host nation, Switzerland, and our beloved homeland, Malaysia. We are excited to come together as a community to celebrate these important occasions with joy and pride.
This year and for the first time, we are especially thrilled to celebrate by organising a unique boat trip on the Greifensee, ZH with the 'MS Stadt Uster', where we will be merging the Swiss kitchen with Malaysian flair which will be expressed through your national dress!
