Malaysian Night

A Malaysian Night (Malam Malaysia/MNight), in the context of this wiki, is a social event run by a Malaysian student organization with the end goal being usually to stage a performance of some kind. These performances may include a play, dances, martial arts etc and are generally student-run. There is a large variety in the types of Malaysian Nights that can be found ranging from traditional ones that aim to tell a folk legend or more modern ones that have original material in them. They are usually held once annually in February-March period for the UK. Sometimes, a university may opt to go for a Malaysian Festival instead of doing a MNight or do both. Regardless, for many universities, this event is considered to be one of their highlight flagship events of the year and representative of the Malaysians at their university.
