faces. You want a home that is affordable, without taking a toll on your lifestyle or compromising your financial status quo.

This is why Seri Pajam Development homes earn a special place in the hearts of many. We define affordable. For a fraction of the price of a shoebox shaped condominium in the congested city, you can afford a landed property that is spacious with Seri Pajam. Yes, you may financially afford four walls within the overcrowded city and you justify this purchase with the fast paced lifestyle the city provides and its distance to your office – granted. But, your health may not afford it; because the pollution and traffic jams are two of the main causes of stress for people who live in the city.

LIVE IN BACK TO BASIC WAY OF LIVE

It is needless to say that interior design and décor is important to set the ambiance of your living space. Regardless where you home is situated; with careful consideration to the very smallest of details may provide surprising results.

And these amazing ambiances could be tailored precisely to your taste. Some may want a more natural ambiance and a kampong’s caressing feeling. Some may prefer an edgier and more progressive city look. Or, instead of geographical adaptation, some may opt for an altered time setting e.g. a more vivid 70s state or an awe-inspiring futuristic atmosphere. These choices are truly infinite.

Seri Pajam, being a family company took this opportunity to not only prepare an avenue for the families to celebrate, but jumped in to draw a smile on the faces of many. Events were held simultaneously in numerous locations marking a huge celebration, one that Seri Pajam is proud of.

At Perdana College Heights, the invitees were presented with traditional games with a twist such as Dam Haji Gargasi, TengTeng, ginormous gasing, congkak and more. Many took the chance to try their skills and before anyone knew, the whole place came to life with the players and supporters alike. After a while day of fun the visitors were served with traditional food and were humoured with caklempong performance. Stills were taken as a token and memory before they left.

Location:

Tiara Heights While the families were having a blast at Perdana College Heights, visitors at Tiara Heights were not left behind. They on the other hand, decided to put their vocal chords to test with karaoke performances.

You’d be surprised to know that many had hidden talents, and even when some were nervous to take the stage, once they held the mic, the inner Siti Nurhaliza and Whitney Houston were unleashed.

Later when everyone sat down to enjoy delicacies; they were entertained with Dikir Barat performance to further commemorate the diversity of our cultures. Of course, photography sessions were held throughout and the camera caught all the smiling faces as a testament to the fun filled day.

The cameras never stopped clicking, be it from the families or from the photography session, everyone recorded their favourite memories.

Everyone gather as soon as the event started and by lunch it was already crowded with eager visitors.

First off, the visitors were given an opportunity to win some duit raya with duit raya guessing competition, where the contestants were asked to guess the amount of money. The one with the closest value wins! Later, up stepped the daring (or more accurately hungry) ones to take on the bahulu eating competition. The cheers were loud and filled with laughter to see the contestants doing their best to eat as many as they could in given time.

The final performance of the day was the Tumbuk Kalang performance and it brought the whole celebration to a cheering close to the modesty of Seri Pajam for having the biggest Raya festival yet.
