Fridae

On Sunday, Dec 1, 2002, in conjunction with World AIDS Day, Frenzy will be collaborating with Atmosphere, TwelveSI to hold an event that looks set to not only raise money for charity, the Malaysian AIDS Foundation, but to inject HIV AIDS awareness messages to a prime audience of 18-40year old members of the fashion and club culture: 'LIFE'.

The show will include performances by comedians, celebrities, dancers, models and DJs and entertainment combined with AIDS awareness education from 8pm through to 2am.

DJ Gregoire will entice the crowd onto the dance floor till 11pm where DJ Mr C, who has been a pioneering force in the UK house music scene since 1987, will be at the decks till close. Mr C who was formerly of The Shamen is also the co-owner and founder of The End club in London, regarded as the most cutting edge dance club in the world.

The number of cases with HIV AIDS is going up, and it is our responsibility to raise awareness to all members of society. It is also time to eliminate the 'stigma and discrimination' that surrounds it, and this is the campaign for the 2002 World AIDS Day events.

In conjunction with this event, the retail outlets led by ECLIPSE have manufactured Ribbons that will be on sale in their outlets, Sonny San & Amp. The proceeds from the sales of these ribbons will go to the Malaysian AIDS Foundation.

Tickets are priced at RM50 and this includes the show (the Buka Puasa buffet is priced separately at RM30++). A drink is included; an alcoholic cocktail from Grand Marnier And Smirnoff Blue for the non-Muslims, and a SARSI or SARSI Float. There will be SARSI floats on offer during the night.

A survival bag will be given away at the entrance including condoms, HIV AIDS Information booklets and other things.
