For example, with regard to WW2 we only get to hear about the T-34, Tiger (and Tiger II) and Sherman. By spending so much time convincing us that events like the Hungarian and Czechoslovakian revolutions were major turning points in tank development we miss out on many interesting developments and tank models. the US only managed to stop the North Korean advance in the Korean War because of the introduction of the Patton tank! Also not very comprehensive. Some of the claims are laughably bad, e.g. Every major war and battle in history is looked at only from a tank perspective, massively over-simplifying and misrepresenting warfare. The main problem is that the content is dumbed-downed for ignorant audiences. Anyone with a decent knowledge of tanks and their history will find this pretty weak, even inaccurate. Covers its entire history, from paper designs of the early-1900s to the beasts of the present day. The array of food too will be something to savour as the number of hawkers and stalls will be put up during the event.The history of the powerful weapon on land, the tank. On the ground, you can also learn about making these kites, especially something as big as the Malaysian ‘Wau’, which is a work of art.Ĭultural performers will also be around to showcase their dancing skills and costumes during the Festival, as this is a good opportunity to showcase Malaysian multi-cultural diversity. Naturally, this is also a festival for locals to take part in and some come from as far as Kuching, Sibu, Miri and even from neighbouring Brunei and Sabah.

There will be amateurs and professionals joining in the fun and most of them will bring along their entire families too.

Kites’ enthusiasts will always bring something new to show to their fellow kite lovers and fly these magnificent art pieces at the centre of the booming town.
