Some of the delegates even showed their talents in dancing.

The delegates also had a look at how a local delicacy, ‘kueh lala’, was prepared.

Apart from that, the visitors were also treated with some other traditional delicacies namely Kueh Selurut, Panyaram and Chinchin.

The ACWW delegates also had an opportunity to look closer on basket making using pandan leaves, a kind of screw-pine and bamboo, and tudung dulang making.
