Family Day Thank You Message

We would like to thank you for your support of MIFNA’s Family Day event held on Sunday, October 12, 2025.  More than 200 people attended the event.

We thank Anizah Hairudin and Liza Rais for their outstanding efforts and hard work chairing Family Day, and the MIFNA Board of Directors for a smooth execution of the event.

We thank all donors and sponsors for their generous contributions to the event. Please contact our treasurer at mifnatreasurer@mifna.com if you would like a donation receipt.

We raised enough to cover the cost of the event with a surplus of $1600+.  This surplus will help cover the cost of future MIFNA activities.

We also want to thank the vendors who participated in the sale of lunch food packs.  There was a great variety of authentic Malaysian and Southeast Asian food to choose from.

Much appreciation to the Intan Payung dancers for their opening dance, and Zapin Rindu-Rinduan band with the little dancers for their performance to close the event.

Thank you also to YB Dato Sri Sharkar bin Shamsudin, Speaker of Pahang State Assembly, for dropping by and saying a few words.

Congratulations to all winners of the following exciting games:

• Mummy Wrap (1^st Place: Muzzie Chavan, Iman Chavan, Shawati Jay)
