23rd August 2012... Why is this date back-tracking? Yes, let's begin from the day we had our MOU Signing Ceremony cum Aidilfitri Open House event, which was held on the 5th day of Syawal (Hari Raya Aidilfitri). We had the honour of having Menteri Besar Kelantan, YAB Tuan Guru Dato' Bentara Setia Haji Nik Abdul Aziz bin Haji Nik Mat, fondly called Tok Guru, as our Guest-of-Honour. Meanwhile, we also had the presence of Tan Sri Dato' Lee Shin Cheng, Executive Chairman of IOI Corporation Berhad. Tan Sri represented the East Coast Economic Region (ECER) Development Council to grace this auspicious occasion.

The event started with a red carpet entrance for Tok Guru, with our VIPs greeting and receiving blessings from Tok Guru. The ceremony then proceeded with the formal delivery of speeches, starting with the welcome from our Executive Director and Event Organizing Chairman, Mr James Tan.

Next, Tan Sri Dato' Lee Shin Cheng commended the courage and commitment of Maarij Development to deliver the mega project, Tunjong Pavilion. He agrees that this is a wonderful development and will give his strong support to the realization of this landmark in the making for the East Coast.

Tok Guru gave his Raya blessing to all who turned up at the Raya Open House. He also praised the concept of this project and will also support the development of this lifestyle city for the betterment of the people in Kelantan.

After the speeches, the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) Signing Ceremony took place with 7 organizations from the government agencies, corporate and non-governmental associations, to build and foster the spirit of "Partnership for Growth" with Tunjong Pavilion.
