 Everyone tried their very best to dress according to theme and be as Malaysian as possible. We saw a wide selection of traditional costumes which includes the Baju Kurung, Baju Melayu, Cheongsam and Sarees!

We had friends visiting from the University of Cardiff, University of Hertfordshire, University of West England, University of Liverpool 

To all crew & team members of the 2010 committee that is not credited in the pictures, we would like to sincerely apologize as we could not find everyone's pictures but the night wouldn't have been as successful as it was without you all! A big THANK YOU from us to you!

Cheers,
Jasmine

Aber Alumni Club of Malaysia video in 1st screening @ the Congratulatory Dinner in Honour of HRH Tuanku Muhriz ibni Almarhum Tuanku Munawir (Aber1970)

Aberystwyth Alumni Club of Malaysia video was produced with 3 things in mind:

 1) Aberystwyth and Aberystwyth University;
2) Aberystwyth Alumni Club of Malaysia activities;
3) Congratulatory message to HRH Tuanku Muhriz over his recent installation (26 October 2009) as the 11th Yang DiPertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan. These objectives were done with interviews of Aberites over 5 decades, namely from graduates of the 1950s to 1990s.

Message to HRH Tuanku Muhriz from Aberystwyth University Vice Chancellor, Prof Noel Lloyd and to all Aber graduates of Malaysia from Pro Vice-Chancellor, Prof Aled Gruffydd Jones.

Screened during the Congratulatory Dinner at the PJ Hilton hotel, 14 November 2009

Tan Sri Arshad Ayub's birthday cake.

Birthday cake for the founding president of the Aberystwyth University Alumni Club of Malaysia, Tan Sri Arshad Ayub (TSA) who celebrates his 81st birthday on 15 November 2009. The Old crest of University College of Wales Aberystwyth since 1872 represented on the left (2-D) and the new Aberystwyth University logo on the right with the 2 Dragons in 3-D made of sugarpaste.

The golden bridge is symbolic of TSA as a bridge linking the past and current & old and young in keeping the communication and relationship between Malaysia & Aberystwyth, Wales strong over the last 50 years.

The writing on the old crest in Welsh 'Nid Byd, Byd Heb Wybodaeth' means 'A World Without Knowledge is No World At All'.
