3, 2, 1 Action! “Be A Star At KidZania Kuala Lumpur” kicks off - witnessed by the RightZKeepers (KidZania Kuala Lumpur’s mascots); (L-R) UMobile representative, Noor Mohd Aslam Bin Yusoff, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Zana Entertainment; Rhonwyn Hagedorn, Facilitator of MYBeat Drum Circles; Shahrul Nizar Ahmad, Mayor of KidZania Kuala Lumpur; Nik Shazrul Ezwan Che Mohd Ariff, Head of Brand & Promotions of Media Prima Radio Networks; Shiva Ruppeni Sivarajanesan, Head of Programming of Fly FM; Azim Farihin binti Mat Azam, Managing Director of Petit Moi Apparel and Patrick Lim, Head of Corporate Communications of Canon Marketing (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd

Children these days are very lucky as there is Kidzania, a place where children learn and play at the same time. I wished Kidzania was around when I was a kid. It’s great being a kid because kids are naturally exuberant and full of potential. Most importantly, every kid is gifted in their own way, all it takes for them to shine is the opportunity to exercise their rights! This March, ‘Be a Star at KidZania Kuala Lumpur’, from 17 March to 8 April 2018, celebrates children’s rights through music, acting, modelling and the use of technology in each of these areas.


Children these days are so advanced that some of them are Youtubers and are making millions of dollars at the tender age of 6 years old. My daughter loves to record videos and has actually started her own Youtube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEdqcK_Go6z0PZFUGuXj0hQ. Please subscribe to show your support. Thanks.



“Be A Star At KidZania Kuala Lumpur” sets out to nurture awareness on KidZania kids’ rightZ through performing arts; the rightZ championed by KidZania’s RightZKeepers (L-R) Bache (Right to Play); Vita (Right to Care); Chika (Right to Share); Beebop (Right to Create) and Urbano (Right to Know). Together with the RightZKeepers is Shahrul Nizar Ahmad, Mayor of KidZania Kuala Lumpur.

“There is no better way to communicate children’s rights than through - performing arts,” said Shahrul Nizar Ahmad, Mayor of KidZania Kuala Lumpur. “The ‘Be a Star at KidZania Kuala Lumpur’ programme is aimed at inspiring awareness of children’s rights by allowing kids to experience and explore what it’s like to create, play, know, care, and share in exciting ways! Apart from that, the arts is an important avenue for improving confidence and communications skills. These are valuable life skills which will serve them well as adults, supporting our philosophy to help children ‘Learn Life Today’.”

  9. Menarik program yang ada dekat Kidzania ni. Kanak-kanak boleh belajar dan asahkan lagi kemahiran yang mereka ada. Sesetengah kanak-kanak sukar nak keluarkan apa yang mereka ada, maksudnya malu atau mereka hadkan kreativiti yang ada. Bila join program macam ni, barulah mereka sedar dan bergaul dengan rakan-rakan.
