The Malaysia International Fireworks Competition (MIFC) 2008 kicked off on 12 August 2008 and will ends on 29 August 2008. The showtime of the fireworks starts on 9:30pm. The teams participating on this competition are Malaysia, China, Canada, Spain and Australia.

Team Malaysia will be performing on 12 August 2008. Team China will be performing on 16 August 2008. Team Canada will be performing on 20 August 2008 and team Spain will be performing on 24 August 2008. While the grand finale will be on 29 August 2008 and team Australia will be performing too.

I missed the previous MIFC and the good new is this year’s MIFC is free. The photos above are taken from Cyberjaya and not Putrajaya to avoid traffic jam. But I will be going to Putrajaya to shoot for team China fireworks on 16 August 2008. So, see you there.
