National Cancer Society Malaysia 50th anniversary gala | Tatler Asia

The National Cancer Society of Malaysia (NCSM) celebrated its golden 50th anniversary milestone with a gala dinner that also doubled as a charity fundraiser to further aid its founding cause at Mandarin Oriental Kuala Lumpur. It was a night of song and dance graced by VIP guests like NCSM's royal patron HRH Sultan of Perak Nazrin Muizzuddin and HRH Raja Permaisuri Perak Tuanku Zara Salim. NCSM's principal patron Tan Sri Rafidah Aziz kicked off the evening with a warm speech followed by a video presentation that tracked the progress of the organisation across the past 50 years. Dinner was accompanied by a jazz performance by Elvira Arul as well as a dance number by a gorup of cancer survivors.
