Hi Holly, Siranush, all,
We can have it ready once everyone is ok with proceeding, just let us
know. I think Suhaidi did mention that his contact needs it within a week
though.
Also, to add to what I updated during the call - Our local contacts for
the Dikir Barat quoted us about US$650 for 10 mins (based on 20
performers), and about US$800 for 20 mins. So with the additional
interactive element we talked about (say 10 mins dance and 10 mins
interaction/teaching), it should also come up to be around US$800. I will
update the entertainment committee once I receive the actual quote
(including the interactive element), but thought I’d share the estimate
now for the cost comparison.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Kelvin
