The procession was made up of about 5000 participants made up of about 120 contigents. In the spirit of 1Malaysia, several non Muslim organisations took part in the procession.

About 120 contigents from Kuching, Samarahn, Betong and Sarikei Division gathered at the KPSU old sports field  Sri Aman as early as 6:30 am in the morning


The 4.5 km walk around Sri Aman Town started off from the KPSU old field, officiated by the Sarawak Governor


1Malaysia spirit saw the Iban Community leaders participating in the procession also


The Chinese Community of Sri Aman from various associations also took part in the procession ~ here we see Cr. Jimmy Chong with the contigent from the Soon Heng Society


True Blue: My former Department from the State Planning Unit Sarawak. I could not recognise of the new faces there now and I only left the Department two years only.

Ministry of Industrial Development - maybe due to space the spelling of Kementerian becomes "Kemterian" on the signage?


The school children also did not wish to miss out of this event

Finally the end of the procession, a photo pose (with the last two Departments I worked with)  Puan Noriah Ahmad the Deputy Director of the State Planning Unit and Encik Udin Bujang the Private Secretary to the State Secretary.

At the end of it all we enjoyed ourselves. For me I loved meeting friends whom I had worked with as most of the contigents are made up of those from Kuching and also Wisma Bapa Malaysia. Salam Maulidur Rasul and Salam 1Malaysia! Now I need to get some lotion for my sunburn.
