Last night (August 17), over 40,000 lucky spectators got to witness the jaw-dropping opening ceremony of the Malaysia Games (SUKMA) Sarawak 2024.
The night was a feast for the senses, with dazzling drones lighting up the sky, vibrant laser beams cutting through the air, and the rhythmic beats of drums filling the stadium. The performers, representing various ethnic groups, brought the event to life in a way that felt deeply personal and close to home.
Astro Arena shared a clip of the breathtaking opening on its X page, cheekily suggesting that Paris could learn a thing or two from SUKMA.
“Paris who? Paris should take notes from SUKMA Sarawak!”
“This is Beijing Olympics level!”
Social media was abuzz with praise for SUKMA Sarawak 2024, with many pointing out that Paris Olympics 2024 might have just met its match.
“Well done, Sarawak! This opening ceremony puts Paris to shame.”
“There’s a reason Sarawak went all out this year. They’re gunning to co-host the SEA Games in 2027, with Kuching as the prime spot for the opening ceremony. SUKMA is their big pitch to the Malaysian government, showing they’re more than ready to host the SEA Games,” one user pointed out.
“Come on, France. This is how you do an opening ceremony—no need for those LGBT symbols, rockers, or dirty water. I feel bad for the swimmers who had to dive into that mess,” another user commented, throwing some shade.
