The kompang team welcomed guests with an energetic display, a culmination of three months of dedicated training. The Dikir Barat troupe, performed nine songs including beloved traditional pieces such as Wau Bulan, Karut Perlahan, Karut Laju, Karut Awe, and creative renditions like Upin Ipin and Jong-jong Inai.

The production concluded on a high note with a rousing performance of Tanggal 31, where the students proudly waved the Jalur Gemilang, accompanied by a vibrant fusion of modern music and Dikir Barat rhythms, igniting patriotic pride throughout the hall.

Behind this success was the tireless dedication of students who committed to daily practice sessions during lunch breaks and early Wednesday mornings, with three intensive weeks of rehearsals leading up to the event. Their achievement was made possible with the guidance from the school that provided valuable opportunities and mentorship.

This international platform not only showcased the students' talent and teamwork, but also enriched their educational journey. Through the Bangsawan production, students gained exposure to the arts, including technical stage management, acting techniques, make-up, and the art of gurindam recitation: skills that complement their academic development, particularly in literature studies.

This remarkable achievement has elevated WMSKLI's reputation internationally while nurturing students' appreciation for culture, teamwork, and patriotism.
