Welcoming BBQ and Mooncake Festival

We had a major blow to this event. Rain start pouring in on Friday night, and never stop till 6 PM on Saturday (September 21), the day which this event supposed to take place. We had to abandon the original plan of doing the event at the Toronto Island, and use the usual UTSU lawn. And since the rain never stops, it got postponed the next day.

The gloomy weather changed Sunday into a beautiful day, with the sun shines all day; not even a single drop of rain. Apart from fall chill, it was a perfect weather for the BBQ.

Islamic Youth Talk

Another collaboration with Canada Malay Association Youth (CMAY). This time its for the Islamic Youth Talk that were held last Friday at the Galbraith Building, UofT.

The two speakers invited were:

  • Ustaz Jamir Kodiang who just recently moved to Toronto with his family on July. He has a lot of experiences giving talks in Malaysia at schools and colleges.
  • Aiman Azlan who is our very own UofT student, MASAT member and a well-known Youtube vlogger. Check out more of him here: http://www.aimanazlan.com/

After the prayer recitation and some introduction from CMAY representative, Ustaz Jamir started his talk, reminding the audiences (which is mostly our students) about the obligation of a youth in today's world. How the youth will shape the future. What are the things that a great youth should have.

Salam Aidilfitri 2013


Great turnout at the event. Event started a bit later than the scheduled 2:30 PM (apologize from us as organizer), but I do believe that everyone didn't regret coming to the event.

After the opening prayer recitation by Ustaz Jamir, representatives (in this case, their President) from MASAT, MyMAC and CMA took turn in delivering their speech to about 130 attendees. Then, thanks to Uncle Howard as the owner of Restoran Malaysia; everyone get to taste authentic Malaysian dishes. Among them were 'Kari Ayam', 'Sambal Udang Petai', 'Mee Goreng' and 'Keropok Ikan'. I think I speak on behalf of everyone that I wish I can have the same kind of food everyday here in Canada. But, nevertheless a big big thank you to Uncle Howard. You're the best!
