Like a high school prom, one would expect the most popular couple to be crowned the “king” and “queen” of the prom night. For the Malaysian Club Deutschland (MCD), the Malaysia Ball 2015 held on 17th October was not only its largest event ever organised but the first with a strong partnership with the Consulate-General of Malaysia in Frankfurt, Tourism Malaysia Frankfurt, Johor State Government, Yayasan Warisan Johor (Johor Heritage Foundation) and Johor Tourism Board.
In addition, this event was also an appreciation to the “Star of the Night” – Dato Chef Ismail Ahmad, MCD’s “Ambassador to Malaysia” – who has tirelessly for the last 8 years cooked and entertained our members, friends and guests. The close relationship between Dato Chef Ismail and MCD was further strengthened when the club president Rosita Rahman-Heilek “crowned” Dato Chef Ismail the official MCD Chef that night in front of the Malaysian Ambassador to Germany Dato Zulkifli Adnan, Deputy Speaker Johor Legislative Assembly Dato’ Haji Baderi Dasuki, Consular-General of Malaysia in Frankfurt Dr. Adina Kamaruddin and other distinguished guests.

Wishing all our Muslim members and friends a Happy Islamic New Year 1437H
Awal Muharram or Hijri New Year is celebrated by Muslims as the day symbolises two important events in the Muslim year. Awal means beginning in English and Muharram is the name of the first month in the Muslim calendar. Islam has a calendar based on the revolutions of the Moon.
The day also coincides with the Prophet’s journey from Mecca to Medina on the first of Muharram in 622AD. To mark the occasion, Muslims attend various religious activities, spiritual singing, religious meetings throughout the country.
