early in the morning at Kolej Kediaman Kedua
the student who wanna rocked the day
After managed drive the car back to UMP, both of them packed their stuff then picked Denis and Edwin. On that day, 27 varsity students will enjoy themselves at Orang Asli wedding receiption at Rompin. Rompin is about 2 hours drive via costal road.
We began our journey at 0830H, stopped at Restoran Zaman for breakfast. We passed by Bandar Diraja Pekan along majestic Sungai Pahang.
We arrive at the bride's house at 1130H after fast and furious driving along "snake road" under sunny day.
The students were happy during the wedding receiption. The Orang Asli here comes from Jakun tribe. Their wedding receiption was almost like Malay but the different was the food served to the peoples were mostly based traditional food except the drink, air sirap.
And after 40 minutes waiting, finally the bride came.
Father Eugene came from Kuantan to solemnize the marriage of the bride and bridegroom. All villagers came although that day the sun appeared in full blast mode. Everybody praise God after the bride and bridegroom exchange vows and rings.
After the wedding service, everybody were served by air sirap, kerbau kurma etc...
my favourite dish
The main event was cutting the cakes and karaoke plus joget. Some of the students really enjoy the day. They sang few songs to entertain the crowd.
We also joget under the hot sun. Thats the reason Souven wear his sunglass.The students were enjoyed their trip because this was the first time in their life attended an Orang Asli wedding receiption. Altough the wedding was not fully following the Orang Asli traditions, the student especially the juniors enjoyed the trip. They were exposed to the Orang Asli life and learn their culture.
By 2.30pm, we left Rompin with thousand of sweet memories and one day we would like to come here again.
