This year Sunway Putra Mall celebrates Ramadan
and Hari Raya Aidilfitri with 60’s touch. We were at their Klasik Raya launch
few days ago. Greyson Chance, an Oklahoma singer-songwriter and Nik Qistina,
Malaysia local artist were performing during the launch. The entre stage at the main concourse of Sunway Putra Mall is transformed to a magnificent 60’s theatre or affectionately known back then as ‘Panggung’ surrounded by quaint vintage shop house, a vintage car and oil lamps as to complimenting the final look.

The crowd was later entertained with classic pop dance featuring
songs like Mambo, Bila Mama Pakai Celana and others which were the hit in the
1960’s Malaya movies. The dancers enthralled the audience with their moves
transporting the guests back to the 60’s.

Sunway Putra Mall also officiated Food Bank, a corporate social
responsonsibilty (CSR) campaign initiated by the mall together with The
Touching Lives Club Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. The campaign aims to encourage
shoppers to donate non-perishable food items to the less fortunate as an act to
support and also help them during this festive season. Donations would be
distributed to Pusat Jagaan Lambaian Kasih, Sg.Penchala before Hari Raya.
After the launch, Tan Sri Razman and his wife proceeded to give Raya packets and goodie
bags to the 30 Yayasan Chow Kit (YCK) children. The hampers were sponsored by
Friends of Burger and Popular Bookstore. We were then ushered to Selera Street food hall for an
