Kota Kinabalu: The Chinese Orchestra of Kian Kok Middle School recently held its themed concert, 'Traces,' at the school hall, drawing an enthusiastic audience of parents, primary school students, and Chinese music enthusiasts. The concert featured a rich and emotive musical programme, offering a delightful night where tradition met youthful passion. The event was graced by Dr Deledda Tan Hui San, President of the SME Association of Sabah, as the Guest of Honour. Datuk Clement Yeh, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Kian Kok Middle School, delivered an opening speech. Both guests expressed their deep appreciation for the Chinese Orchestra's dedication to promoting traditional Chinese music on campus and in the broader community over the years. Themed 'Traces,' the concert symbolised the footprints of growth, the heritage of culture, and the youthful journeys of learning and perseverance. The repertoire for the evening showcased a diverse blend of traditional and contemporary Chinese music, including Forest Nocturne, Purple Reed and Butterfly, Light Clouds and Faint Moon, Pipa Whisper, In That Faraway Place, Liyue, Ussuri Boat Song Fantasy, Prosperous Times, Chasing Chasing Chasing, and Swaying Love. The evening featured outstanding performances under the baton of several experienced conductors, including Leong Han Kui, Chin Sin Ni, Chong Cheng Chong, and Vui Chen Yew. Together with the dedicated student performers, they brought the music to life, earning waves of applause from the captivated audience and demonstrating the Chinese Orchestra's remarkable musical maturity. Clement highlighted the history of the school's Chinese Orchestra, which was founded in 1989 and has since become a pillar of the school's cultural life. He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to all supporters of the orchestra, noting that despite the wear and tear on instruments over time, generous community support has enabled the group not only to replace damaged instruments but also to acquire new ones thereby enhancing the orchestra's performance capabilities. Clement also called on all parents to be more involved in their children's school life. 'A round of applause, a few words of encouragement, or just being present – these small gestures are powerful sources of motivation for our children,' he said. He further encouraged the public, corporate sector, and alums to continue supporting the school's growth and cultural development. Guest of Honour Dr Tan Hui San, herself a parent of two Kian Kok alums, shared her emotional connection to the school. She expressed her admiration for the students' dedication and the orchestra's role in preserving Chinese cultural heritage, urging young performers to cherish this rare opportunity to learn and grow through music. The success of 'Traces' was a testament not only to the students' musical talent and teamwork but also to the community's shared commitment to cultural continuity. Through persistent practice and unity, the Chinese Orchestra once again proved that the roots of Chinese culture remain strong in the hearts of today's youth. Kian Kok Middle School's Chinese Orchestra will continue its mission to cultivate musical talent and promote Chinese cultural values, bringing more inspiring performances to the community in the years to come. * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?

Suchata 'Opal' Chuangsri: 5 Fun Facts About Thailand's First Miss World Winner

It's that time of year again, the new Miss World has been crowned! Opal Chuangsri (สุชาตา ช่วงศรี) of Thailand made history and headlines by becoming her country's first-ever Miss World. The model was crowned the winner at the grand finale of this year's pageant, held over the weekend in Hyderabad, India. 'I'm deeply honoured and humbled by this responsibility. I promise to dedicate myself wholeheartedly to the mission of Beauty With a Purpose, using my voice and actions to uplift, support, and inspire,' she wrote in her victory post on Instagram. Let's learn a little more about Thailand's first Miss World winner. 1. She was the 3rd Runner-up for Miss Universe 2024 This is not Opal's first time on the international pageant stage. In fact, she was crowned third runner-up at Miss Universe 2024, where Victoria Kjær Theilvig of Denmark took home the title. The Thai model has come a long way since then, and now the previous Miss World winner, Krystyna Pyszková of Czechia, has graciously passed the crown to her successor during the finale. 'You are entering a wonderful chapter filled with opportunity and potential, and I know that you will be amazing. I can't wait to see you shine and make your mark on the world. I'll be here to support you and cheer you on every step of the way ✨,' said Krystyna. 2. She's a political science student Talk about beauty with brains. Opal will not let a beauty pageant get in the way of her studies. According to AsiaOne, she's currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in political science and international relations, with interests in psychology and anthropology at Thammasat University in Bangkok. 3. She's proficient in Chinese Not only can she speak English and Thai, but she's also reportedly proficient in Chinese, having graduated from the Triam Udom Suksa School in Bangkok with a specialisation in the Chinese language. Talk about being a polyglot! 4. She's an advocate for breast cancer awareness Raising awareness and advocating for meaningful causes is part of a beauty pageant winner's duty. Past titleholders have often championed causes close to their hearts, hoping to make a difference in the lives of those in need. For Opal, that cause is breast cancer awareness. She had a benign tumour removed at the age of 16 and is the founder of the Opal for Her project, which aims to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer prevention. 5. She also won the Miss World 2025 Multimedia Challenge According to several reports, in addition to winning the main title, Opal also claimed victory in the pageant's Multimedia Challenge. She reportedly topped the contestant app leaderboard, with over 2.3 million views. Sources: MalayMail, AsiaOne, NationThailand What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0
