All participants performed in various languages not only Bahasa Melayu and English but included Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, and Bahasa Indonesia. This small event became a cultural connector between the local and international students.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An Indonesian group performer of <em>Sanggar Chatulistiwa<\/em>, Rachmat Arriz Saputra said, &#8220;This event is really good using the idea of bringing more cultural diversity. Chinese, Japanese, Indonesians, Malaysians, and others sat together and enjoyed the art as to how it should be enjoyed. People said art is universal and all people can unite together by showing their own culture.\u009d<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG-20191108-WA0060-1024x550.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-133695\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG-20191108-WA0060-1024x550.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG-20191108-WA0060-300x161.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG-20191108-WA0060-768x412.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.iium.edu.my\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/IMG-20191108-WA0060.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Group Performance on Night of Poesy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the event, the programme manager, Riezman Harris, appreciated all participants by giving them the token of awards.
