It seems like the web design competition is at hand. I'd like to commend the creative team for coming up with such a wonderful theme, which is preserving the rich history of Oldest School in Sarawak and Third Oldest School in Malaysia - it requires massive research, humor and creativeness. Aside from the fun experience of web design competitions (especially if the prices are enticing), it is very educational and inspirational to the viewers as well.
