Those who intended to visit Tenom for the Kalimaran feast April this year will stand a chance to bring home not one but six livestock as part of the prizes attending the event on a given period of time.

They are offering six lucky individuals, who must arrived at the centre between 7am and 9am on April 4, to bring home lucky draw prizes of either a live cow, buffalo or goat. Visitors arriving during the period will be given lucky draw ticket. So you can bring your whole family of six or more, to attend the event at the same time in order to win all six of these livestocks.

Wearing a traditional Murut costume will boost your chance to win the prizes as the contest will be judged by a panel of judges.

Pesta Kalimaran is the annual cultural event for the Muruts that honours and celebrates the Murut people and their traditions. The Murut Ethnic is particularly from the largest sub-groups of the Tagol from Nabawan and Timugon from Tenom. These events will take place at the Tenom Murut Cultural Centre from 4 – 5 of April 2009. Lots of programmes have been lined up for the festival, including the Kalimaran Queen pageant, the Maginakan, traditional Murut dances and songs, handicraft and gong-beating competition.

The event will be highlighting the rich culture of the Murut people, through colourful and fascinating cultural performances, handicraft demonstrations and sale booths plus many other exciting activities.

Im looking forward for this one.
