Ingat tak ‘KL Freeze in Unison’? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psOfYLtKk34

Kami nak berjumpa lagi!

Banyak telah berlaku kebelakangan ini yang menimbulkan pelbagai reaksi di kalangan orang ramai.

Namun kami bangga Rakyat masih dapat terus bertenang.

Jom raikan kematangan kita sebagai sebuah masyarakat yang berjaya maintain cool! Jom jadi inspirasi kepada mereka yang tak berapa cool :]

Mari kita buat sesuatu yang simbolik. Bawa seutas tali dan bersama kita akan mengikat utasan tali masing-masing untuk dijadikan satu tali panjang yang cun gila.

Tali panjaaang yang cun gila itu pula akan kita bawa bersiar selama lebih kurang 15 minit untuk ditunjukkan kepada masyarakat Malaysia yang lain.

Mari bersama kita, semua dijemput serta! Sediakan:

1.      Seutas tali sepanjang tangan kanan anda [Tak kira warna atau jenis]

2.      [Pakai baju putih]

3.      [Kalau ada bendera Malaysia, bawa sekali]

Penting sekali, jangan lupa beritahu member-member semua! Jangan lupa datang!

Remember ‘KL Freeze in Unison’? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psOfYLtKk34

We want to reunite with you!

So much has happened in the last few weeks that has cause our country to be buzzing with agreements and disagreements.

But we’re proud that despite all that’s happened, we the Rakyat, have managed to keep our cool.

Let’s celebrate the fact that we have grown up to be a level-headed cool lot! Let’s inspire those not-so-cool to be cool :]

Let’s do something symbolic. Come with a piece of rope/string and we will tie them together to make one long, beautiful, cool rope that represents each and every one of us.

We will then take our fantastic work of art on a short, 15-minute tour for our fellow Malaysians to see.

Come and join us! Anyone and everyone! All you have to do is:

1.       Bring a piece of rope/string the length of your right arm [Any colour or texture]

2.       Wear a white t-shirt

3.       If you have a Malaysian flag, bring it along

Most importantly, share this news with your friends and you, of course, must come too!

Cheques to PRIDE & Eco Knights paid

Our first t-shirt project, was in support of raising funds and awareness for PRIDE Foundation and Eco Knights. It was also our first time trying to sell something to raise funds for ourselves, and also going into accounting in careful detail as we’re responsible for the money we’ve collected from the sales, later to be passed to these two wonderful organisations.

Wonderful as without their participation and support, the t-shirts would have been just that. But their involvement gave it more meaning and with RA, we try to tie something good into everything that we do, as oppose to shooting blanks.

So to Adeline and her team at PRIDE Foundation, Yasmin and her team at Eco Knights thank you for trusting and believing in RA.

Please note, this is the second cheque to Eco Knights. The first cheque is here.

Evidently, it took us a while to do the video. Many thanks to Vini Balan for having the patience to edit the video and deal with me for the countless of editions asked. Also thanks to food media company Fried Chillies again for providing technical support to allow us to use their equipment. -Zain HD

Donations due to PRIDE Foundation & Eco Knights

In July 2008, RA started selling two t-shirts and stated clearly that 20% of the purchase price would go to either PRIDE Foundation or Eco Knights, depending on which t-shirt you bought. We have sold out all our t-shirts and will be making payments to the two respective organisation within the first two weeks of September 2009 as we are tied up launching our new t-shirts this 31st August 2009.

We’d like to thank those who have supported us from buying them, helping us to sell them and any other way that has helped the success of that project, that led us to launching two more new ones. We also thank PRIDE Foundation & Eco Knights for their support and cooperation. :)

Our new t-shirts will be at Delicious outlets

Here’s a quick one. Will elaborate more later.

We will be releasing these two new t-shirts in early September as the old ones have sold out. Delicious (the restaurant chain) is our partner for this t-shirt project, known as RA+D.  For each t-shirt you buy Delicious pledges to contribute RM5 to either SPCA Selangor or Federal Territory Amateur Gymnastics Association.

Open Invitation – Merdeka Train Party 31st Aug

Merdeka Train Party (MTP)

Happy Birthday Malaysia!

Decorating the interior of a few public trains. Guerilla/flashmob style.

Imagine decorating the interior of a house for a birthday party. Now that is exactly what RA will do (in a few public trains!) on 31st August 2009 . You’re invited to join in. Anyone & everyone. We will decorate the interior of the trains. We will meet at 2pm for a briefing, somewhere convenient in KL. To participate in this free project, you cannot RSVP via Facebook. Find out how by reading EVERYTHING written below. :)

This event is also on Facebook.  To be part of our future events and projects Add us on Facebook. Or join our Facebook Group.

+Check out this design above. We’re printing 1000 over these balloons.+

Where?
As always, we HAVE to keep it a secret until a few days before the event. You will be informed via email the exact of the location of the meeting by Thursday 27th August. For those who rsvp after the 27th, you will receive information about the meeting point on Sunday 30th August.

Which train? KTM Komuter? Monorail? LRT?
We HAVE to keep it a secret for now. When you find out on Sunday 30th August, feel free to invite people you know, but keep it hush hush still okay.

What do I have to bring?
You MUST come with party props. Streamers. Hats. Anything that is easily attached and detached. And will not be considered permanently vandalising a place. :)
Keyword here is creating the atmosphere. Remember, we are really decorating the interior of a train here for a BIRTHDAY PARTY!

How?
We will split everyone approximately into groups of 20. Each group will be in charge of a train and will decorate the train very quickly, guerilla style, flashmob effect.

What’s the idea?
The idea is to create a similar flashmob like effect. People who do not know about the project, will come into a train expecting the usual scenario right? Imagine their reaction when they see what we’ve done to it!

After that?
Once the train is decorated, you do whatever you like inside it. Take a picture, sing a song, wear a hat, call a cat, whatever.

Ok. So how do I know more about this and participate?
***Click here to RSVP*** and you’ll be notified via email other information you need to know.
