KUCHING: Kelab Belia Proaktif has announced the upcoming traditional food workshop and competition, set to take place on Aug 31 at Borneo Glamping Campsite 1, located in the picturesque Borneo Highlands.
This event is part of the Merdeka Glamping celebration organised by Borneo Glamping and is proudly supported by the Ministry of Tourism, Creative Industry, and Performing Arts.
President Shenton Tan said the workshop and competition will focus on the rich culinary heritage of Sarawak, featuring traditional dishes such as ayam pansuh and lemang.
“These iconic dishes represent the unique flavours and cooking methods of the indigenous communities in Sarawak, offering participants a chance to learn, cook, and compete in a friendly and culturally enriching environment.
“We are thrilled to bring this event to life as part of the Merdeka Glamping celebration.
“Our goal is to help people connect with our cultural roots through the art of traditional cooking, and we encourage everyone to come and participate.”
She added that the club also emphasised the importance of encouraging youth to embrace outdoor activities and equip themselves with diverse skills.
“This event is not just about celebrating our heritage, it is also about inspiring our youth to get outside, connect with nature, and learn valuable skills that go beyond the kitchen.
“The experience gained from participating in events like this can foster a greater appreciation for our culture and environment, while also building self-confidence and teamwork.”
The event is open to the public, and those interested in joining can sign up by contacting Lorette via WhatsApp at 011-19872890.
