ABOUT 35,000 visitors thronged the Japanese Bon Odori festival in Shah Alam last night, a month after the event came under scrutiny, following a minister’s advice for Muslims to avoid it.
Participants were dressed in colourful yukata – traditional Japanese summer attire – with visitors gathering around the main stage called the “yagura”. – July 17, 2022.
