Isibingelelo!
Astro introduced Stadium Astro Sokker Safari for the public to get into the 2010 FIFA World Cup fever at Bukit Jalil (car park next to Bukit Jalil National Stadium) on Saturday 18th July, 2009.
South Africa is hosting the next World Cup in 2010.
The mobile mini stadium is actually made up of a combination of four units of 4×40 foot long trailer with a futsal field and a retractable sitting terrace. This is really cool and fun for the whole family. Being introduced for the firs time in Malaysia, we can expect to see more of this mobile stadium moving around the country for sports and game activites.
Besides the celebrity futsal matches, there were other exciting activities for everyone to join in the excitement and fun including African dance performances, singing by local artistes and a friendly football match between Manchester United (MU), who was in Malaysia as part of its Asia Tour 2009, and Malaysia XI which was played at the Bukit Jalil Stadium.

Riding a mechanical rodeo bull can be a challenging moment. It spins 360 degrees, at the same it moves side to side and front to back just like the real thing.
A prize for the rider who stays on the ride for the longest.
