The evening after the graduation session for the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering, MASAT held a special dinner for our respective just-graduated students. About 20 of the graduating students attended this dinner. Along with parents and friends, the dinner was spectacular.
The food was catered from Pickle Barrel, a famous restaurant. The attendees was being served with a 3 course meal. The main dish were either the special Avocado Salsa Chicken Breast or their delicious Salmon Teriyaki.
Between the meals, our President, Wen Cheng Chong gave his speech; congratulating all the students for their achievement. Then, several graduated students came out to the front and gave probably their last speech in MASAT event. Among the important message from them is that we have to think about why do we do whatever we are doing, because its the cause that's important.
That's it. So long all graduating students. Till we meet again. "SELAMAT MAJU JAYA!!!"
About 20 or so of MASAT members graduated yesterday. This convocation session was the largest group of our members to graduate, as it consists of Engineering students; which make up about two-third of MASAT members.
The Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering session was broken into two session, the Morning session for Civil, Mining, Mechanical & Industrial and Material Science department, and the Afternoon session; for Aerospace, Biomedical, Chemical, Electrical and Engineering Science departments.
Despite the hotter than average weather yesterday, every graduating students cannot hide their smile of joy as this is the moment they'd been waiting for the four, five years of studying.
Parents, family members and friends were present to support them. Thanks to all of you, yesterday's ceremony was a memorable one.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! to all graduated students; from our first session (UTM students) till yesterday's session. To those who'll or already went back home, hopefully we'll bump into each other in the future. To the one's staying in Toronto, we'll keep in contact. There's much to learnt from all of you guys.
As of now, goodbye and see you guys soon.

For MASAT members, today was the first day for our Class of 2012 members to graduate. Today's sessions were all for University of Toronto at Missisauga (UTM) students. And what a great day it was. The morning session was held at 9:30am to 11:30am in which we had seven MASAT members graduating.
Meanwhile in the afternoon session, another two students were graduating. We would have another one, but she had gone back early to Malaysia. Anyway, thank you to all other members who came by to celebrate together with these graduated students. It was so much fun with many people around. Not to forget the family members who came by all the way from Malaysia. Thanks so much.
So, CONGRATULATIONS! and ALL THE BEST! to all of the graduated and will-be-graduated students. The pain and hard work for all the years was finally paid off.

MASAT held the annual Chinese New Year dinner on January 22, 2012. There were about 100 attendees for that dinner, held at Sky Dragon Chinese Restaurant. It started at 7.30pm, first with tossing of yee sang (prepared by us, students not the restaurant !!!).
Then we went into the 10 course meals, followed by a table-to-table yam seng toast by MASAT execs, wishing everyone prosperity. There was a karaoke session after the meal where the attendees can show their singing prowess. The function ended at around 11pm.

Last Friday, MASAT has successfully held one of the biggest event by them, the first ever Malaysian Bazaar. Thanks to Tsuey Xin Ho (Cultural Officer of MASAT), who first had the idea back in April last year, MASAT has been working on the event real hard. And after the event last week, everyone must have felt, "It really worth the effort".
The event comprises of mainly food stalls and cultures event, plus a traditional game stall and a tourism stall. All sorts of food are being served at very low price, such as Pasembor, Satay, Bak Kut Teh, and Teh Tarik among others. In the game stall, there are Sepak Raga and Congkak game where guests can try to play or watch demo done by one of our own.
Starting around 6pm, dozens and dozens of people rushing in into the Wyclife College, University of Toronto to join the event. Being that the event and even MASAT's objective is to promote Malaysia to the world, it is such a a great thing that about half of the guests came is non-Malaysians. Everyone enjoy the food, the games and also the cultural shows.
Sapro Ritmo, a wonderful traditional band (with the members being a Malay, Indian, Mexican, you name it) came all the way from Hamilton and played all the guests a few great songs such as Getaran Jiwa and La Bamba. Thanks to them, they totally make the crowd excited. Imagine having a delicious dish on your table, with a traditional song in the background. Such a perfect moment.
Then, there's the fashion show. The person in charge, Natasha Shukor has been very creative in having the show using the Malay Bridal concept. Models walking in to the stage wearing all sorts of traditional costume. From the traditional Malay 'Baju Melayu' to the classic Indians 'Sarees'. The popular Chinese 'Cheongsam' to the colorful Iban attire.
As the event ended, there's none of the foods left. That's how passionate the guests are. Such a great event. We hope that this event will be organized by MASAT in the years to come, annually. This year's edition was not perfect but was great enough as the first time being organized here in University of Toronto. We promised you, the next Malaysian Bazaar would be way better than this.
That's it. Thanks to the Malaysian Bazaar 2012 Organizing Committee, everyone who made the event a success (stall managers, cooks, fashion models, etc.) and the guests. See you on the next Malaysian Bazaar hopefully.

Wondering about the next Midwest Games? Well, you don't have to go far. Canada Games, as it is named is the first sports event (pretty much as the Midwest Games) held in Canada for the Malaysians from different Canadians universities to come and compete together in sports.
The sports that will be held include Indoor Soccer (Futsal), Basketball, Badminton, and Volleyball. There would also be DOTA Online and Performance Competition which in this case is a Pentomime.
Everyone should be coming to this event and represent MASAT. Not just to win the games, but it also a good event to meet up with our friends from other universities.
For further information, do check their wonderful website at the link below.
