I refer to the full-page advertisement in the New Straits Times regarding a ‘ Dolphins & Sea Lions Show” at Sunway Pyramid with an accompanying caption which read ” First time in Malaysia”.

I was working for Plaza Phoenix Shopping Centre in Cheras, Kuala Lumpur when the management and a local event organiser co-hosted a ” dolphins & Sea Lions” show in 1997. The show was brought here from Jakarta. It was opened by Datuk Sabaruddin Chik, then tourism minister.

The show went on for two weeks and the opening programme  was televised by RTM and TV3, apart from being widely reported in all the major dailies.

While I applaud the Sunway Pyramid management for organising such an event, the claim that it’s a first in Malaysia is inaccurate.
