  • COSMIC WAVE 2019

    Date : 21 July 2019.
    Time : 11.00a.m. – 7.00p.m.
    Venue : Kuantan Parade, Kuantan.

    Cosmic Wave is an joint event between Persatuan Hainan Kuantan (Kuantan Hainan Association), KOTASAS, Wawasan Intact Properties Sdn Bhd, A.S.K  and Artwave. It all started when our new Kuantan’s A.S.K members wanted to organize a Cosplay Event in Kuantan, but with only a very limited funding. We then plan  on securing how to secure the remaining fundings for it which lead us to finding partners to collaborate. Thanks to one of our member’s connection with Persatuan Hainan Kuantan, we approached them with an event proposal and details at hand.

    After meeting and providing all the details to the Youth President of Persatuan Hainan for 2019, Mr. Pu Siang Yen, he agreed to work with us for this event. Since the majority funding and sponsorship will be coming from Persatuan Hainan Kuantan, we came to an agreement that this event will be presented by them. From there, Mr. Pu connect us to KOTASAS and Wawasan Intact Properties Sdn Bhd to increase our funding for our event so that we can do and perform better.

    Mr. Pu also then continues to find sponsors and also coordinate their own members from the Youth Division of Persatuan Hainan Kuantan to work with us closely. With this, we have an increase of manpower for the work (since most of our active A.S.K members are not in Kuantan at that moment), though they have less experience on such events, Mr. Pu suggested that we have to guide them through. Mr. Pu also suggested us to have a media conference for a soft launch of this event to create more awareness about this event in Kuantan. As below are some photos and links :


    Special thanks to all cosplayers and members for willing to come and support our media conference!

    Moving on with our majority funding and sponsors are covered by Mr. Pu and team, we proceed with our invitation of judges, technical details, preparations of schedule & floor plan, coordination, marketing on the event. Our initial date is around early June however due to the unfortunate passing of the former Sultan of Pahang, Paduka Ayahanda Sultan Ahmad Shah Al-Musta’in Billah ibni Al Marhum Sultan Abu Bakar Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mu’adzam Shah, in respect for this unfortunate news, we decided to delay our event until 21 July 2019.

    We then proceed on working with the promo material including posters and videos to promote this event. As below are our promotional video done by Otoko Studio.

    With all the cosplay competitions, cosplay photo competitions, floor plans and booths documentations prepared, we continue to coordinate the trips of our members whom are not from Kuantan by arranging their meals, accommodations and guides when they arrived Kuantan so that they won’t be loss and felt abandoned.

    We are finally then, ready to host the event on 21.07.2019!
    Since our photographer unable to come due to a clash of event which he have promised to cover at Penang, we requested some photographer friends to help us take photos of our event and some photos are also taken from friends that visited our event :

    After the event, we even have a group photo with all the working members & volunteers after the clean up of the event floor and also a group photo with all the other participating teams from Persatuan Hainan Kuantan, performers, judges and helpers ^^

    Some of our members also choose to eat at other place to help us save cost because this appreciation dinner is also under our event budget to treat everyone a nice meal as a token of gratitude for giving their utmost best for our events.

    Right after the dinner, our members whom are not from Kuantan also start traveling back and one of them manage to report safety to us when they resting at R&R. It’s truly a blessing to have such awesome and wonderful friends and comrades!

    After the event, Sin Chew Newspaper, China Press and Nanyang also wrote about our event!

  • COSCON 2019

    In this event, we are also invited to handle their stage program and management as Coscon is a new organization and this is their first time doing event as well. Which involved invitation of performers, preparing, coordinating and execution. Our logo are not present in the banner because at that time something is going on and so we decided to lay low and continue our task as usuals. It’s a difficult times for us but the team still remain strong & united! With that, they work on to make stage programs and management goes smoothly!

    The stage programs only until 6p.m but the mall requested all booth to be open until 09.00p.m latest. In this event we also learned some details about how PUSPAL actually works and how we can all work together nicely with the government department. We learned that they also wanted to help us, as long as we all willing to cooperate nicely. As something did happened around that month on March, hence we did received some query from the Government Licensing Department according to the main organizer. We then proceed to figure things out with them and assist them how to go through it.

    With patience, humility and understanding, we settle the problem peacefully and correctly with the government department. They are also quite humble and nice while explaining to use the ruling and working with us so that we won’t get into trouble because it’s not what they want either. They also quite supportive to us in creating entertainment for the younger generations and everyone to enjoy.

    And thus, the event proceed on as usual and continue with your work to setup for the event including coordinating rehearsal for the performers. We also help in dismantling of the events as well.

    Finally, towards the event day, here are some photos taken by our photographer, Hany Moon and some friends.

    With all the happy faces and awesome crowd, we are so very glad that we gone through all the trouble for this event. It’s totally worth it. Even during the dismantling of the event and carpets, our team also snap a photo to show how much they love Family Mart~

  • ANIME SAIKO “BORN OF KYOYA” JB

    Collaboration project with Anime Saiko at Forest City, Johor Bahru to handle their 2nd stage.
    While our stage team are handling the 2nd stage, we are also bringing in our Maid Cafe Team into their event which we will write in another post. This is also our 1st collaboration that involved bringing more than 40+ staff to assist in their events at Johor which include assisting their Media Team, Otoko Studio.

    Date : 01st, 2nd & 3rd December 2017
    Venue : Forest City, Johor Bahru
    Time : 10.00a.m – 10.00p.m

    Our 2nd stage only start operating at 12p.m – 6.00p.m but we have to be there early to prepare and also assist the Maid Cafe Team as theirs start at 11.00a.m sharp during the event day. In this event, we separated into 3 category, Stage/Operation Team (A.S.K), Maid Cafe Team (Maids) and Media Team (Otoko). Since the Media Team have to be there early to shoot some scene of footage of the pre-event and interviews, hence the organizers requested them to come earlier, however with lacking of transports, hence part of the stage/operation (A.S.K) team will have to assist them.

    Our trip started from Kuantan to Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday (30 Nov 2017), arriving there around evening and then continue our journey with the Media Team from Kuala Lumpur to Johor at night. While the rest of the Operation and Maid Team will travel on Friday instead. It’s a tiring for us whom travel on Thursday but it’s a fun and good experience journey. Though we faced a few problems due to miscommunications with the organizers, we somehow manage to settled it as soon as we can since it’s getting late.

    However on the 2nd day, technical difficulties still happens and again, we sit together and find a solution to it as soon as possible because another half of the team are on their way. Rather everyone getting stuck on a problem, the Operation Team (A.S.K) and Media Team (Otoko) put everything in their capability to solve it.

    With much brainstorm and going around Johor to solve all minor problems that we can see, we finally manage to settle it with the good cooperation and patience from everyone. Thank you so much, you guys are awesome! We then continue to proceed with the preparation and setup for the event on the big day.

    As such we would also want to share the promotion video for this event which is done by the Media Team, Otoko Studio!
