I’ve been busy for the past weeks that I didn’t post
anything about the Southeast Asian Cultural Arts Festival. The gathering was on
Saturday, August 18, 2012.  It was the
creation of like-minded martial artist that wanted to share the art – without ego.
It was a great turn out. I heard it was the biggest number they have since it
started the festival five years ago. 
Event Programme
 The festival ran from
10am to 5pm with 30 minutes for each presentation and 10 minutes in between. At
1pm there was a potluck BBQ featuring lots of ethnic food (with a performance
from SEACHS Dance).
