MISG Raya Celebration

I went to Purdue University to attend Malaysian Islamic Study Group (MISG) Annual Delegate Conference. It was a good experience meeting other people from different university and receiving new knowledge about dakwah.

Trip to Washington DC

I was participating in High Performance Debate Malaysian Language Fest held at Malaysian Embassy in Washington DC. This was the first time this event was organized. The VIPs for this event is the Malaysian Ambassador Dato Seri Jamaludin Jarjis and Tan Sri Sharifuddin. During our trip there, we stayed in one of the Malaysian officer in Vienna.

There are also some open houses held by other Malaysian that I went to. This year's Raya was indeed a very nice experience for me. Hope that this year's Ramadan is better that previous years.
