Place of the week - Malaysia

F1 MALAYSIA 2005 SEPANG CIRCUIT : 18th-20th March 2005



Malaysia is the place of the week. Any Malaysians that is currently studying or working overseas will miss this weekend's very special Formula One event. Over the next few days, the world will be watching Malaysia as the F1 race is one of sports' biggest events. The Formula One World Championship is held in different countries all over the world throughout the year. Our very own Sepang F1 cicuit is one of the world's best, unique and challenging circuit. With the existence of F1, what's Indy Car Racing, Nascar or whatever? These are nothing compared to F1. I love F1 for a few simple facts - speed, cars and the official F1 circuit. The world's best drivers, cars and engineering team are there at this spectacular event to compete. I'm a true Ferrari fan.



With the Formula One event going on in Malaysia, The Forces of Nature Foundation will kick off an extravaganza free concert at Putra Stadium Malayia. Check it out.. the link for Malaysians abroad and Malaysians at home would not want to miss this. I really wish now to be in Malaysia for the concert & the Formula 1 event. Black Eyed Peas, Boyz II Men, Wyclef Jean, Lauryn Hill and many more internation artist.. all gonna be there for the concert.

On top of these happenings, there's a gala dinner for over 680 people to be attended by the King & Queen, the Prime Minister and his Cabinet. Amont the guests, from world champion F1 driver to celebrities like Baywatch actress Carmen Electra, international stars Jackie Chan, Datuk Michelle Yeoh, Bai Ling and Nicholas Tse. Singing at the dinner would be jazz singer Diana Krall, and Malaysian Idol Jackie Victor. Said All Sports Services Sdn Bhd director Hafez Mohamed, who travelled to several F1 host countries recently: “These are big names and they attract the media wherever they go. So Malaysia will be on the world map.” As Malaysians set to go stargazing, one popular story going around is that American Idol judge Paula Abdul is coming. So is media tycoon Rupert Murdoch, but no one is confirming this talk.

What a week to settle down.. terrific! fabulous! awesome!
