The Kajang Municipal Council (MPKj) will co-organise 1001 Rasa Sate Kajang Carnival with Tourism Selangor next month.
The carnival will be held from Dec 19 to 22 at Cempaka Lake in Bangi.
More than 10 satay vendors in Kajang will come together and visitors will have the opportunity to taste the different types of satay available in the town famously known for its skewered and grilled meat.
“The encouraging number of 80,000 visitors who came to the carnival last year inspired us to hold the event again,” said MPKj president Datuk Hasan Nawawi Abd Rahman during a press conference recently.
There will be a lot of fun games and activities catered for both adults and children at the carnival such as colouring contest, cooking contest, futsal tournaments, walk hunt and fishing competition with RM15,000 cash prizes to give away.
“The carnival is held to honour the role of satay entrepreneurs in Kajang who have helped promote Kajang as a Satay City, as well as to promote Visit Malaysia 2014,” said Hasan.
He added that there were more than 100 satay vendors in Kajang and 10 were invited for the carnival.
“Visitors will be able to taste the famous Sate Kajang Haji Samuri and Sate UK, among others, all under one roof,” he said.
There will also be free satay for visitors.
“About 1,000 satay will be given away on Dec 20 and 21,” he said.
Hasan added that Lake Cempaka in Bangi was chosen as the venue this year as there was ample parking space for visitors.
“They do not have to worry about parking space. It is also the best place for the fishing competition,” he said.
Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim will be launching the carnival on Dec 19.
