the Curve Fosters Community Spirit with ‘Kiriman Raya’ Celebration
Kuala Lumpur, 19 March 2024 – Nestled in the heart of Mutiara Damansara, the Curve beckons you to embark on a nostalgic journey evoking the timeless tradition of ‘Kiriman Raya.’ This celebration pays homage to the age-old tradition of thoughtful gifting, promising an enchanting experience filled with cherished moments.
Inspired by the historic Pejabat Pos Bukit Rotan, the Ground Floor of the Curve transforms into a vibrant tapestry of shared moments. From now until 14 April 2024, the Centre Court will exude the charm of a traditional ‘kampong’ with its own Pos Malaysia service counter, various retro haven shops and a bustling Raya Bazaar. Shoppers will also be able to send in their Raya Cards and goodies to their loved ones through the Pos Malaysia mailbox and courier services on the weekends.
As part of these festivities, the Curve extends warm blessings and wishes to the local orphanage, Pusat Jagaan Kasih Harapan, Kota Damansara, providing hampers filled with essential items, special Raya packets, along with Raya performances and an iftar session at Royale Chulan, the Curve, fostering a sense of community camaraderie.
Kiriman Raya - the Curve
En. Jazmi Kamarudin, Chief Operations Officer of Boustead Properties Berhad expresses, “This year, our Raya festivities hold deeper meaning with Pos Malaysia and Malaysia Book of Record’s invaluable involvement. It empowers us to recreate cherished memories and foster a profound sense of community spirit. Additionally the Curve is also committed to supporting local SMEs through our Raya Bazaar, many of which have evolved from humble kiosks to permanent tenants.”
To revive tradition, the Curve showcases over 10,000 Raya greeting cards throughout the mall, engaging shoppers and the community in celebrating this long-forgotten custom. Recognised as the largest display of its kind in Malaysia, the mall has been awarded the title for “The Most Extensive Display of Raya Greeting Cards at the Curve, Mutiara Damansara” by the Malaysian Book of Records.
In line with the Curve’s sustainability efforts, these Raya cards will later be repurposed for upcoming creative children’s art workshops, collages, and other activities, ensuring they continue to bring delight beyond the Curve’s walls and connect others in the spirit of the season.
