You can hear it through the vibrant, green treetops, beyond the haze of humidity and the chirp of tropical birds. In the distance, a drum beats steadily, thumping out its tribal rhythm. Have you inadvertently wandered into the camp of an enigmatic indigenous people? Is this a scene from a movie in which the natives sacrifice you to a hungry jungle monster? It’s the Rainforest World Music Festival.

Thousand of music lovers worldwide flock to Sarawak Cultural Village every year, a hamlet nestled at the foot of Mount Santubong 35 kilometres outside Kuching, the state capital of Sarawak. The typical schedule consists of having workshops (more like mini-concerts) in the afternoon, followed by full-scale performances on the two main stages in the village during the festival’s three-day run. The festival usually hosts around 20 bands throughout the weekend and has grown to be one of Malaysia’s most significant musical events, attracting an estimated 30,000 people.

Types of Music at RWMF

The festival includes a diverse range of musical performances, ranging from traditional to world fusion and contemporary. While electronic instruments are now reasonably standard at the festival, the festival places a strong emphasis on traditional acoustic instruments. Performers all over Malaysia and Australia, Colombia, Ireland, Africa, and beyond showcase their musical talents here in RWMF. What if you get tired of all the didgeridoos, lutes, and sitars? Then head over to the Food & Village Mart! That is where you will find local artisans sell everything from henna tattoos to jewellery and fabric, and food stalls sell kolo mee (a traditional Kuching noodle dish) and sautéed wild fern. You know, your typical festival fare.

Randy Raine-Reusch, former Sarawak Tourism Board head Robert Basiuk, Edric Ong, President of the Society Atelier of Sarawak (predictably), supports traditional arts), and his brother, film producer Edgar Ong, are the proud founder of this festival. RWMF has grown from humble beginnings less than 20 years ago to being named one of the “25 Best International Festivals” by the renowned music magazine, Songlines for the fourth year in a row.

Rainforest World Music Festival’s Atmosphere?

Although the workshops and evening performances have a set schedule, the Rainforest World Music Festival atmosphere is exceptionally relaxed, and attendees are free to roam the village, coming and going from the festival over the three days. You will find daytime workshops in traditional village houses during the event. Whereby the performers are frequently on the floor with the audience. Hence allowing guests to get up close and personal with the musicians. You won’t find any performers hiding behind the scenes or in private trailers here. Instead, artists roam the village, mingling with curious festival-goers asking about the music and the day’s events.

When is the next Rainforest World Music Festival?

Brace yourself for yet another cultural and fun experience as RWMF 2022 will be coming very soon! Check out their upcoming event HERE!

  • Welcoming Yaqoob and Sayed Rehan from Kuwait — students we first met back during Ramadhan at the #Yes2Malaysia Expo, and today they’re finally here in Malaysia, all settled in and ready to begin their aviation journey! ✈️🇲🇾

They explored the Hangar for the first time with Ms Nisa, tried local favourites like masak lemak daging salai and asam pedas (which they loved, even with the heat! 🔥), and got their medical check-ups done.

These two have been friends since Grade 10, and now they’re kicking off this new chapter together at the same university. Classes start next week on the 27th — and we know they’re going to fly high, literally and academically! 💛

Here’s to a smooth takeoff, boys — your #MalaysianExperience is just beginning, and it’s going to be full of flavour, fun, and moments that go way #BeyondTheClassroom.

  • Say hello to Neil, our bright and beaming MUFY student at #SunwayUniversity! 🌞✨ From the moment he arrived, Neil brought along his humble charm, positive energy, and of course — that contagious smile that lights up the room 😄

Even before Orientation Day kicked off, Neil already had a circle of friends from the MUFY and CIMP programmes — talk about social skills unlocked! 🧑‍🤝‍🧑💬 He’s excited to begin this new chapter and we’re beyond proud of his confidence and kindness.

Also big shoutout to his super sporting dad who joined us for a quick lunch at a Muslim Chinese spot while Neil got busy with orientation 🍜🇨🇳 Family support = top-tier Malaysian vibes ❤️

All the best, Neil! Keep being you — and keep that smile going strong! 🫶

Thanks to #EMGA perks, he kicked off his studies with a FREE student visa and sweet cash rebates—yes, you can get yours too! 💸😉 The best part? He’s loving the affordable lifestyle here in Malaysia almost as much as he’s loving his Mechanical Engineering classes. 🛠️❤️

From hands-on learning to weekend chill sessions, Khaliq is making the most of his #MalaysianExperience—studying hard, spending smart, and living life #BeyondTheClassroom.

  • Fresh off the plane and already loving the vibes! ☕✈️

We caught up with Mr. Waleed, who just landed in Malaysia to begin his exciting PhD journey at #UTMKL! Over a much-needed cup of coffee, we chatted about life, studies, and how insanely cool the campus buildings are (he seriously couldn’t stop smiling 😄).

Next up? Registration, meeting his supervisor, and diving into research mode. With that kind of energy and curiosity, we know Waleed’s #MalaysianExperience is going to be one for the books — full of discovery, new friendships, and learning that goes far #BeyondTheClassroom! 💡🌇

Welcome to Malaysia, Waleed — we’re so glad you’re here and part of the #EMGA family! Let the PhD adventure begin 🎓🌟

  • Welcome to Malaysia, DK Almas! 🇧🇳✨ This bright future leader from Brunei is all set to begin her Bachelors in International Relations at #APU — with big dreams of working in politics or even for the government one day! 🏛️🌍

As an only child, the move was understandably overwhelming (first time away from home 😢), but with both her amazing parents by her side and a little help from #EMGA, everything went smoothly — from registration to accommodation check-in ✅

Tomorrow, it’s medical checkup day, but today? We’re heading out to explore KL and hunt for some essentials (and maybe snacks 😄). We’re beyond proud to be part of her #MalaysianExperience and excited to see her thrive #BeyondTheClassroom!

Malaysia, you’ve got a passionate changemaker in the making. Let’s go, Almas! 💪📚
