Tiffin Musical Mural Charity Night
Organised by Jeiwa
@ Grand Straits Garden, Legend Park, City Plaza, JB
× Pianist : Kok Kee Boon
× Venue Owner & Artist: Bruce Lee
My friend introduced me, I attended this event.
Grand Straits Garden, a long-established seafood Chinese restaurant that relocated and opened about a month ago in Legend Park, which is located in the heart of the city but is still a hidden gem.
This is a truly luxurious event where you can enjoy delicious Chinese food and listen to a performance by pianist Kok Kee Boon in this one-of-a-kind space.
The beautiful tiffins on display and for sale were made by the NGO Jeiwa.
Since its establishment in October 2015, the NGO, known as JEIWA, which stands for the Johor Empowerment of Intellectual Women Association, has been working to help DV victims and women in need of support regain their confidence and develop the skills to contribute to their communities again.
The NGO paints and sells tiffins as part of its activities. (Currently 60 people are making them.)
In addition to this, JEIWA is continuously involved in charity and various projects in which women are active, and JEIWA is now a permanent member and presenter at the World Women's Conference, an annual international-level event.
Ina Fadilah, the president of JEIWA, is a friendly, passionate, charming, and attractive woman who told us that "it is all about relationships.”
I was surprised to learn that she is the portrait on the packaging of Hershey's chocolates, a symbol of a wonderful Malaysian woman.
Her dream for the near future is to operate a glamping resort as Jeiwa and offer a nice, traditional, and sustainable stay by reducing waste with her own products such as Tiffin.
The venue for this event was a unique space in JB. I quite like the chaotic beauty of this place.
All the murals and paintings were painted by owner Bruce Lee during the Corona period. The space is a mix of Western and Chinese, classic and modern, gorgeous and chic, and everything else is "in my head," he says.
Chinese food here is wonderful!
I will write more about this restaurant soon.
