We congratulate organisers of the second edition of the “Born To Perform” Dance Competition 2026 which had attracted overwhelming response from ballet academies from throughout Sarawak, Sabah, Labuan, West Malaysia and neighbouring Indonesia.
This year’s event is once again held at the auditorium of Borneo Cultures Museum (BCM) in Kuching and participants from 16 academies had showcased their talents at the two-day competition. We hope the organisers will continue their good job in sustaining this wonderful event that has attracted the attention of young talented people from throughout our country and even neighbouring countries.
In my brief speech, I have called on our local folks to support the organising of performing arts events and activities which will help to promote our city as it goes beyond infrastructure development and to continue providing good avenues for artistic expression and recreational activities.
It is important for all of us to play our roles in developing a vibrant city that embraces performing arts, sports and entertainment activities which can nurture well-rounded youths while creating a dynamic urban environment.
