Amal Merdeka de' Broga

Date : 30 & 31 August 2010
Location : Broga Hill, Semenyih, Selangor

For the first time in my life as a Malaysian, I went out for a celebration for our Independence Day with friends from UPSI and getting along with new outdoor friends (all over from KL, Selangor, Port Dickson, Batu Pahat, Ipoh)...

We celebrated the day at Broga Hill with more than 50 participants on top of the hill.
Went up hiking the hill after "berbuka" and while waiting for the time to struck at 12:00am, there were BBQ and entertainment up there.

Other than that, of course for the Muslims they did not forget their "solat terawih"...
So, for outdoor people there is always a way on how to fulfill the responsibility as a God's follower.

When the time struck, firecrackers and fireworks were all around and what I'm impressed most at that time was the singing of our national anthem by all of us.
This shows that we are truly Malaysian regardless of who we are and where we are from...

Last but not least, there was also an additional event which is to raise some fund for an eight years old child suffering from nerve cancer (http://adamstumor.blogspot.com/)...

Around 1:30am we went down and gather at a "mamak" restaurant for some drink and even "sahur" then everybody went their own way back to the respective destination.

One of my memorable Merdeka Celebration in my life...
Thanks to Encik Zainul Fikri, the organiser of the event...
