Aidilfitri at UMBI

UMBIans celebrated Hari Raya on 18th July 2017 with the theme 鈥淎idilfitri dirai, UMBI di hati鈥 (celebrating Aidilfitri with UMBI in our hearts), in conjunction with its 14th anniversary and birthday celebration for UMBIans born in the months of May, June, July and August. In his speech, UMBI Director Professor Datuk Dr A Rahman A Jamal reminded everyone to have an open heart, know our roles, responsibilities and privileges in UMBI and continue to contribute to the institute鈥檚 growth and development. This year鈥檚 celebration was carried out in moderation, with UMBIans taking up the challenge of preparing food and beverage with the 鈥減otluck鈥 concept. The day was filled with fun and laughter as UMBIans reveled in good cheer while participating in activities such as karaoke (the 鈥淯MBI Idol Raya鈥 contest), Raya video greeting, fashion show (鈥渞eka busana鈥), food design (鈥渞eka juadah鈥) and taking photos at beautiful, home-made photo booths. There was also the best-dressed UMBIan contest, where the theme for this year was 鈥渟ongket and lace鈥. The biggest attraction for the day would be the announcement of the winners for 鈥淭he Biggest Loser Season 2鈥, where names of contestants who lost the most weight during the fasting month were announced. Photos of the event are available at:

鈥淪elamat Hari Raya, maaf zahir dan batin鈥 from all of us in UMBI.
