Kuala Lumpur, 04 March 2010 -
UCSI University’s Student Council launched its Fiesta
Numero Uno today, an event which combines several carnivals
and fairs in one, to create one of the biggest fiestas
on campus. The Fiesta Numero Uno, Spanish for “The Number
One Fiesta”, includes a Flea Market with 20 stalls promoting
clothing, accessories and other items; a Street Carnival
with 20 stalls selling food and drinks; and a PC & Games
Fair with companies selling IT products and accessories.
The event culminated with a concert, dubbed as the Unifest,
featuring popular local bands.
The Unifest saw more than 500 students cheering on local
bands such as The Seven Collar T-Shirt, An Honest Mistake,
Bus Company and Free to Fall. The concert also included
a fashion show organised by the University’s Social
Sciences and Liberal Arts Association, to commemorate
this year’s International Women’s Day.
The event combined students from different fields, from
Management students who organised the Street Carnival,
to Mass Communications and Engineering students for
various other events. The Street Carnival saw students
selling unique gastronomic concoctions of their own,
such as the Subwow sandwiches, hot and cold jelly
and chocolate fondue. According to Simon Goh, President
of the Management Student Association, the students
applied marketing strategies learned in class succeeded
in attracting customers.
The PC fair saw the main sponsor, local mobile phone
manufacturer, CSL, demonstrating their products. Lucky
draw sessions were conducted periodically to win the
grand prize of a CSL Blueberry mobile phone.
The Fiesta Numero Uno is just one of the events organised
by the University’s Student Council to celebrate the
lead-up to UCSI University’s celebration of its 25th
year in the education industry next year in May.
