The Sheffield Malaysian Games was first held in 1992 and is one of the largest sport festivals for Malaysian students in the UK...'
It was hell of a day for all the committee members and the volunteers....the weather on that day sucks (snow, rain n hail come and go...sighhh). But that doesn't stop the flow of event to go as planned...my unit (Sports Technical) only spent around 3 hours of sleep a day before, preparing for the success of this event...all that 4-5 months effort paid off, it was a HUGE success ...but i don't think i'm gonna participate in the flow of the games next year; be it a committee member or a volunteer, hehehehe...
