Malaysia and Singapore have a long-lasting relationship, they are like a family. They both share the same notion and have an exclusively good relationship and history from a long time ago as neighbouring countries.
The two countries share similar cultures, traditional costumes and literate languages. Either Malaysians or Singaporeans, we all respect the differences between cultures, races, religions and other aspects. The two countries are formed with multi races and religions. Hence, it is exactly what makes us special in terms of food and culture.
Fortunately, this is an opportunity, as well as our obligation to show Coventry University’s students our cultural diversities. Certainly, everyone is welcome to join the society and one does not necessarily have to be Malaysian nor Singaporean, as long as you are willing to get to know the wonders of diversity in both countries.
Members will have the opportunity to explore and embrace different aspects relating to a state’s cultural heritage, including art, history, language, foods and more through monthly seminars and workshops. As well as the periodical events and guest speaking events.
Everyone is welcomed to join us and discover the wonders of diversity.
