Yesterday morning I wake up early in the morning for a reason. I have a date with #1600PandasMY
The 1600 pandas, along with French artist Paulo Grangeon, the "Father of 1600 Pandas" arrived in Malaysia. Malaysia is the third stop of 1600 Pandas World Tour in the Asian region, after its journey in Taiwan and Hong Kong. Themed "Initiating the Culture of Creative Conservation", the adorable pandas will begin their nationwide journey to more than 15 iconic landmarks in Malaysia from yesterday until 25 January 2015.
Debuting in Dataran Merdeka, the 1600 Pandas were welcomed in a spectacular event filled with excitement and great anticipation.

The tour is a creative artistic instrument in promoting a key message that conservation is a big concern in the world. This event also promote the message of environmental conservation. Tropical rainforests are an asset that requires careful governing and with 60% of Malaysia covered in greenery, this message should be amplified further within the local community.
The message of animal welfare and conservation is one that needs to be constantly communicated to the public, as we all need to work hand in hand to maintain a sustainable ecosystem.
The 1600 Pandas World Tour which started in 2008 as a collaboration between WWF and Paulo Grangeon, has since appeared in more than 100 exhibitions across various countries such as France, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Taiwan and Hong Kong. Malaysia will be the 1600 Pandas' third stop after the Hong Kong in the Asia region.
