The Music Run (TMR) by CIMB happening on 23 November at the National Stadium at KL Sports City will be Malaysia’s first carbon neutral mass participation event and the first sustainability themed running event in the country.


Combining the elements of music and running, TMR will take the form of a 5-kilometre and 10-kilometre running race with more than 100 speakers lining the entire Sound Track circuit, culminating in what is regarded as the world’s best finish line party. With a giant stage showcasing local bands and the renowned Live The Beat show, this fun and energetic event provides a one-of-a-kind, safe, healthy, enjoyable and sustainable experience for all participants.

Mohamed Adam Wee Abdullah, Group Chief Marketing Officer, CIMB Group said, “We are excited to be part of TMR, a great platform to raise awareness, encourage and empower participants to embrace sustainability and take action towards shaping a more responsible society. TMR ties in well with CIMB’s focus on championing the sustainability agenda as one of the key pivots in our current growth strategy. Given our firm commitment on sustainability, we have worked hard to ensure every aspect of this event is not just fun, but also sustainable.”


“Besides making the event bigger and more fun this year, we also realise the potential impact of 20,000 individuals on the environment. This is why we are making sustainability a primary focus this
year. Together with CIMB as our Presenting Partner, we are taking an active stance to achieve our sustainability goals by reducing single use plastics while also implementing an industry-leading recycling and food waste-management programme,” said Sam Middlehurst, Co-Founder and Managing Director of The Music Run.

“This is made possible by teaming up with a number of remarkable ‘green’ and enterprising organisations who actively champion environmental issues. For instance, we have teamed up with YTL Group Sustainability to independently track all greenhouse gas emissions produced during the event. With the help of CIMB, the event’s emissions will be offset through an investment in a water filtration project in Indonesia that uses ceramic filters to produce safe drinking water, thus eradicating the traditional requirement to boil water prior to drinking it. This is a Gold Standard project which contributes to Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 13 - Climate Action in addition to benefitting local communities by contributing to at least two additional SDGs,” he added.


The organisers will also be working with Visionary Solutions, using proprietary technology by Sweden’s Bluewater, one of the world’s most innovative clean water solution companies, to incorporate a revolutionary water distribution system, eradicating the need for single-use plastic water bottles. Participants will have access to 100% clean and purified drinking water, and, using reusable water bottles provided by CIMB in their run pack which they can conveniently refill at stations strategically placed throughout the venue. This initiative will prevent potentially 80,000 single-use plastic water bottles from entering our landfills and oceans. Moreover, the organisers will also be eliminating more than 40,000 pieces of single-use plastic wrapping from items in participant run packs, including T-shirts and medals.


In addition to cash prizes and other goodies, race winners will also be the proud recipients of Malaysia’s first Winners’ Trophies made from recycled E-Waste provided by CIMB in collaboration with ERTH, a Malaysian company specialising in the recycling of e-waste. To date, CIMB has collected 3- tonnes of E-Waste, all of which will be recycled into the Winners’ Trophies. TMR by CIMB will also partner with Paperway to makeover its iconic “Rock Hand” giveaways using recycled cardboard, which will replace the traditional foam used in previous years. Paperway will also be supporting the event with their unique recycled cardboard tables and chairs for participants to relax at the Food Village.

Indeed, waste management will play a huge part of the event to ensure the event to be as sustainable as possible. As part of the effort to reduce, reuse and recycle waste wherever possible, the event will also see the involvement of some of the country’s most innovative green enterprises including KLEAN, which will showcase new ways to reward consumers for recycling using their “reverse-vending machines”. All recycling at the event will be handled by industry experts, iCYCLE, with dedicated recycling bins dotted across the venue. Meanwhile, all compostable food waste at the Food Village will be collected and taken to a composting facility operated by Ground Control. This nutrient rich compost will then be used by the Free Tree Society to plant trees that will be donated and replanted at local schools. Any leftover food will be accounted for by The Lost Food Project, which adopts appropriate food and hygiene standards in redistributing the food to those in need.

Participants of TMR are encouraged to do their part in order to ensure the success of this noble cause.
Among the practical ways they can contribute include car-pooling or using public transportation, including the LRT, to get to the event. Participants will also be reminded to maintain the cleanliness of the event area, while responsibly and appropriately disposing of any waste.

Attention all dessert lovers! Did you hear?World’s largest chain of ice cream specialty shops Baskin Robbins announced something exciting this festive season - a collaboration with famous local designer Dato Tom Abang Saufi’s brand TAS!

Who said Raya was over? Celebrate this joyous Raya season with this limited-time “Bungkus of Happiness” featuring 3 specially-designed Baskin Robbins inspired wraps that incorporated modern elements with traditional classiness. Now you can “bungkus” (wrap) home your favorite ice-creams in this premium quality TAS wraps and share your happiness with family and friends! 

“Bungkus of Happiness” represent a beautiful gift that you can take away to share with your family and friends. The “bungkus” here are the wraps designed by Dato Tom Abang Saufi for this special occasion; while the “happiness” is of course the delicious Baskin Robbins ice-creams, the perfect blend of sweet and creamy goodness in every scoop.


Dato’ Tom Abang Saufi is a leading designer in the Malaysia fashion industry and is well-known for her efforts in promoting the colourful Batik culture. Her TAS collection has never been shy of using vibrant colours to portray the clashing of modern fashion and traditional cultures, inserting creative elements into all her designs.



The three wraps she designed for Baskin Robbins – the gentle Ketupat wrap, sweet Ice-cream wrap and vibrant Waffle wrap, are all made from high quality silk mix fabric. The wraps are perfect for gifting and can be reused in many different ways, including using them as scarves or tudungs (head scarves). 


Ice-cream Scarf


The Beautiful Meaning behind “Bungkus of Happiness”


The inspiration for “Bungkus of Happiness” comes from the designer’s childhood memories.

“The word “bungkus” (wrap) cognates many images for me. My earliest memory was how clothes were “bungkus” for the laundry lady and it all comes back in the same fabric crisp and clean with the scent of freshly-ironed clothes,” she reminisced.

She said in the villages then, stacks of plates were wrapped in fabric kept in the community centre and would only be brought out during special functions or celebrations.

To Dato’ Tom Abang Saufi, “bungkus” represents love and cherish. She said the use of fabric to wrap items was used in most cultures. And often, the richer the fabric, the more pronounced the present inside would be.

“I can virtually see my late mother smiling as she unwrapped a bungkus of precious fine batik,” she added.

Waffle Scarf

Since founded, Baskin Robbins has been a favourite to many around the world. Baskin Robbins has near to 31 years of history in Malaysia while Dato’ Tom Abang Saufi has been designing for more than 35 years.

“It’s our pasts that inspire us, and we need to keep injecting new life into our traditions. TAS’s mantra is to keep our customers contemporary, chic and classy. We are happy to collaborate with Baskin Robbins, to allow customers unwrap the beautiful “Bungkus of Happiness” and reveal the delicious ice-creams inside and share their happiness with their family,” she said.

The Hari Raya Limited Edition “Bungkus of Happiness”

The “Bungkus of Happiness” wrap were designed by Dato’ Tom Abang Saufi especially for this coming Hari Raya. The limited-edition wrap integrates both the Malays tradition and Baskin Robbins’ culture. 

Ketupat Scarf

Ketupat is a traditional Malay delicacies and a popular Raya food. Dato’ Tom uses various colours to represent the woven palm leaf to bring out the gentleness in it.

Selamat Hari Raya to all my dear readers who are celebrating this festive season. Are you prepared with all your Raya dishes? California Raisins is back with their Cooking Challenge so here's some of the recipes that you can prepare for your guests this year!


This year, I joined this competition with my partner-in-crimes Aliza Sara and Suki! This is the third year I join this competition with Sara and it is becoming a tradition of ours. We decided that we will be the Spice Girls for this year and our theme is to utilize raisins in our dishes.

Raisins is an awesome healthy snacks loved by both kids and adults. I personally love raisins as well to boost my sugar level when it is low and it is a great snack on the go too. Not only that, because of its versatile nature, you can incorporate it in dishes too and not only for desserts.

All ready to dish out our dishes



For our group, we went all out and prepared 3 dishes, starting with 'Mango Salad with Raisin Vinaigrette', 'Raisin Sambal with Chicken' and 'Fried Cauliflower Rice' as our dish, presenting it as Ramadhan Blessings.


During the challenge, all 8 teams were given one hour to plan, prepare and cook a meal! One hour is definitely not enough and all the teams created unique dishes to incorporate raisins. With the power of three, we managed to dish out three different dishes which all paired well with each other. 

Our final creation


Once we were done with our dishes, it was JUDGING time! It never gets easier even if it was our third time joining the competition. The concept of our dish is that we are using California Raisins in our dishes as a form of blessings to everyone who eats it. California Raisins are super healthy and it is a natural sweeter too. So no added sugar or flavouring were needed in our dishes. We also showcased how versatile California Raisins can be used in both savory and sweet dishes.


And once again, we were the Grand Prize Winner for the California Raisins Cooking Challenge. Really grateful for California Raisins giving us this opportunity to showcase their amazing raisin in our dishes and showing how versatile and healthier it is to use their raisins. Below are some of the unique dishes that the rest of the themes prepared.









So remember! The next time you grab a box of California Raisins, it not only serves as a healthy snack but also as an amazing ingredient in your next dish. For more details on the recipes and what other dishes you can create using California Raisins, check our their official website. And if you've got some unique dish idea, share them with me in the comments below.
