Bandar Sri Sendayan developer Matrix Concepts Holdings Berhad, in reinforcing the company’s commitment to fostering inclusivity and community well-being, reached out to Beautiful Gate Foundation (Seremban branch), Touch Community Society Seremban and SK Bandar Sri Sendayan’s Special Education Integration Programme.
The beneficiaries were special guests at a Chinese New Year dinner hosted by the developer to usher in the Year of the Snake during the launch of its Oriental Lunar Fiesta.
It was a weekend showcase of thrilling performances, fun events and culinary delights at the d’Tempat Country Club.
The line-up of events included an acrobatic lion dance and a spectacular mask-changing opera performance that had the guests, aged seven to 50 years, cheering and clapping in excitement.
Guests also participated in an arts and crafts workshop where they tried their hand at Chinese calligraphy and learnt to make Lunar New Year-inspired decorations.

“We are grateful for the contribution and the chance to participate in this event.
“It’s a delightful way for the pupils to make new friends, learn about Chinese New Year traditions, and try their hand at craft-making which is therapeutic,” he said.
Touch Community Society Seremban chairman Dr Pushpa Devi Hukam Gopal Chand said the contribution from Matrix Concepts would be used to buy baking equipment for the centre where baking was a popular activity.
