Tram Sarong is a unifying event where friends, families and people from different backgrounds come together to celebrate Malaysia Day. There will be nostalgic tunes, a variety of authentic Malaysian food and a vibrant atmosphere with performances and cultural activities for everyone to experience.

Alongside with Metro Sarong in Paris and Tube Sarong in London, Tram Sarong is part of global network of events, where attendees in their traditional attire and sarong gather at designated public transport stations and travel together to celebrate the diverse and rich culture of Malaysia.
