Scores of activities took place at Sultan Saiful Rijal Technical College (MTSSR) in Jalan Muara yesterday in conjunction with the first MTSSR Entrepreneurship Fair.
The two-day event, which began on November 20 and will conclude today, was officially launched by the Minister of Communications, Pehin Orang Kaya Hamzah Pahlawan Dato Seri Setia Awang Haji Abdullah.
The event is organised by the college as part of it activity to highlight and expose their projects whilst supporting the `Fund Raising Campaign’ by the Business School, which has been going on for six months since June to January 2011.

One of the highlights of the fair was the exotic pet display by my buddy Edshal. Daughter number one had a blast playing with the various serpents and reptiles. Here she is playing with what is known locally as a Balingkarong although this one is called a Blue Tongue Skink from Indonesia and massive!
