IU Day : InDia Shoes

On the 13th of April 2018,  the Interact Club of Wesley Methodist School Kuala Lumpur (International) held their 44th annual International Understanding Day with the theme "InDia Shoes". This theme was chosen to emphasize on the gender inequality that is happening all around the world and to provide the audience a gist of what it is like to be in their perspective. As always, our main goal is not only to let people know about India's culture but also learn about the social issues that is happening in the country itself.

After all the guests have arrived, the event started off with opening ceremony which includes an amazing dance performance to potrait the gender inequality in India. This was followed by the singing of Negaraku, national anthem of India and Interact Song. After that, roll call was then initiated to acknowledge all the guests that were present on that day.







Next, a short speech was presented by President of RCKL Di Raja, Rtr. Ajmal Khan. Shortly after that, social experiment and flash skit was presented. The aim of the  social experiment was to let the audience know that although women worked as hard as men and put in as much afford as men, they will always receive lesser and never equal, and this has to stop.

After that, an hour of activity session was provided. In this time period, the audiences were allowed to roam around the hall to visit different booths. For example, science booth, Indian traditional clothing, India's traditional games and so on. This interactive game not only allowed the audience to enjoyed themselves, but also to learn deeper about the Indian culture.





Next, the continuation of the flash skit was presented and also a video presentation prepared by Interactors were being shown. This was followed by a short speech presented by guest of hour and also IU Director Int. Chin Wan Lin respectively. After that, token of appriciate on was given out to all the clubs and guests present.

After the finale, refreshments was served in the canteen for the student and guests to enjoy. The food includes various famous Indian dishes such as roti canai, muruku, rice and so on. All of the students enjoyed the food very much.
