Pakistan Women Association Holds
Charity Bazaar
By Achong Tanjong
Bandar Seri
Begawan - Despite the heavy downpour yesterday, large crowds
flocked to a charity bazaar organised by the Pakistan Women
Association. The bazaar was held over the weekend at Pakistan High
Commission in Kampung Sungai Akar and all proceeds from the sale would
be donated to the tsunami victims and other charities.
The charity bazaar received an
overwhelming response not only from the Pakistani community but also
from the locals as well as diplomats. It was held in conjunction with
the 65th anniversary of Pakistan Day and organised by members of the
Pakistan Women Association in collaboration with the Pakistan High
Commission.
Ten booths were set up, where
visitors could buy various types of Pakistan dishes, traditional cakes
and other products of Pakistan.
To keep the children entertained, a
number of fun games were organised such as bouncers, face painting,
guessing the weight of a cake, balloon throwing and the ever-popular
`Pillow fight on the Golden Horse'.
Among those present were Pakistan
High Commissioner Mr Badr-ud-Deen and spouse, who are the chairperson
of Pakistan Women Association, as well as other executive committee
members of the association. --
