A Triumphant
Festival of Lights
SOS Deepavali Celebration 2010
Parkroyal Hotel was transformed into a celebration
of good triumphing over evil as SOS set about
illuminating hearts through the spread of goodwill
and friendly camaraderie.
178 members and staff gathered in merriment to celebrate
the Festival of Lights, on the evening of 12 November 2010.
Several Indian members came dressed in traditional
costumes; while pre-event activities such as henna and crystal
tattoos; a dinner buffet with popular Indian dishes such as Naan
and Dhall plus traditional sweets and snacks such as muruku and
kacang puteh added colour and vibrancy to the festive atmosphere.
SOS General-Secretary Mr Kam Soon Huat, and SOS President
Mr Mohamed Idris Bin Mohamed Ibrahim presided over the Diwali
light-up, while performances from a dance group, a multilingual
songstress, Michael Jackson impersonator and Kyle Ravin’s exciting
“Magic and Illusion Show” upped the entertainment factor.
These and more with
attractive lucky draw prizes and
5-piece glassware door gifts with
Indian food products made the
celebration a thoroughly enjoyable
evening for all.
