The third dance of the night was performed by the dancers from Peninsular Malaysia (or Semenanjung Malaysia in Malay or it is also known as West Malaysia).

We have forgotten the name of this dance, the only thing we know is that they were from across the South China Sea from here, West Malaysia.

They were in half red and half white.

They kept on turning and turning, and suddenly… …

One of the ladies had been lifted up by the rest of the dancers.  Amazing.

I noticed that the 3 dances, Sabah, Sarawak and this one all had something in common, they share this similarity in their dances.  They put up their arms, and looked like accepting something from the sky.  Did they try to show the patriotism by having this action?

The costumes here show the multiculture of West Malaysia.   I guess the man with the dried grass was representing Orang Asli (original peoples) in West Malaysia.

Chinese Kungfu.

Let’s watch the slideshow that I have made from the photos that I have taken.  I did not take any videos for this dance because I was busy taking photos until the dance has ended.

Same group of dancers, but this time, they had a colourful cloth in their hands.

They kept on waving their colourful cloths in their hands, and kept on walking around, making a circle etc..

They are still performing Kungfu (Chinese martial arts).  It was a great idea to use a white cloth and create a shadow on the stage.  When the correct lighting was used, a person wearing a cap holding the white cloth can be seen as a shadow.

A long cloth in white, red and blue were pulled across the stage.

Similar to the previous two dances, the second half of the dance performance was added with songs from local singers.

They were in 4 colours that are the same as our Malaysia flag:- blue, red, white and yellow.

Get closer and look at their expressions.

This is the whole stage that we could see from where we sat.  Look at my left and right hand side, they were people taking photos and videos as well.  Sometimes they blocked my view.

Did you notice that on the left and right of the main stage, they were also stages with dancers.  As I told you in the previous posts, there were 6 stages, but most of the time, I focus on the middle front stage.

Again, I know nothing about this dance, if you know what it is about, please tell me okay?
