The fourth day of the 22nd Sarawak Cultural Mid-Autumn Festival featured a lively programme of prayers, performances, and cultural celebrations, with Datuk Lily Yong, one of the festival\u2019s founders and Chairman of SUPP Kuching Branch, as guest of honour. She was accompanied by Councillor Nicholas Wung, SUPP Kuching Branch Youth Chairman, together with several party leaders and members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The delegation first attended the \u201cNezha Third Prince Birthday Celebration\u201d at Hong Shan Shi Temple, where they offered incense and prayers while engaging warmly with temple leaders and devotees. The group later joined the festivities along Carpenter Street and Ewe Hai Street, where food stalls, lion dances, choir and calligraphy performances, cultural dances, and public square dancing brought festive cheer to the crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wung, who distributed mini mooncakes to performers, said the festival held a special place in his heart. \u201cI first took part in this festival as a student in 2003, when I received a certificate signed by the then chairpersons. This festival is not just about mooncakes and lanterns, but about unity and cultural exchange. It stands as a lasting symbol of Sarawak\u2019s diversity and harmony,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He expressed hope that this spirit of togetherness would continue to inspire younger generations, adding that Sarawak\u2019s example of multicultural harmony should serve as a model for the nation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening was also attended by party leaders, youth members, and women\u2019s wing representatives, who joined the community in celebrating the festival\u2019s vibrant atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
