Concert led by Unimas Chancellor delayed
The University Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas) Chancellor Concert, originally scheduled for January 15, has been rescheduled to January 23 due to unforeseeable circumstances. The event, which will take place at the new State Legislative Assembly complex (DUN), promises an evening of diverse music performances and is being held as a token of appreciation to the Head of State, Tun Datuk Patinggi Abang Haji Muhammad Salahuddin, for his significant contribution towards the development of Unimas.
Dato Mahadzir Lokman will host the event, while music students and lecturers from the Faculty of Applied and Creative Arts will perform a variety of genres, including classical, experimental, contemporary, traditional, 'keroncong', and modern pop. A special guest, Bob AF, is expected to make an appearance, and the evening will also welcome the presence of Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud, who is the pro-chancellor of Unimas, and his wife. Toh Puan Datuk Patinggi Hajah Norkiah, the wife of the Head of State, is also expected to attend.
