Sacoor Brothers & Sacoor Blue – Proud Sponsors of Buvazoi Tavantang Kaamatan, MRK 2024

Buvazoi Tavantang Kaamatan

Sacoor Brothers and Sacoor Blue are proud to announce their official sponsorship of the Buvazoi Tavantang Kaamatan, MRK 2024. MRK, also known in the Kadazan dialect as Buvazoi Tavantang, is the male cultural pageant equivalent to the renowned women’s Unduk Ngadau Kaamatan pageant.

Kaamatan, or Pesta Kaamatan, translates to Harvest Festival and is a cherished tradition woven into the fabric of Sabah’s identity. Celebrated throughout May, this month-long festival culminates in two days of thanksgiving, feasting, and renewing communal bonds. Representatives from various districts proudly don traditional attire, symbolising Sabah’s rich and diverse cultural heritage.

Since its inception in 2008, MRK has aimed to promote the unique culture, customs, and traditional costumes of the Kadazandusun society, sharing the same mission and vision as the Unduk Ngadau Kaamatan pageant. Besides preserving culture, language, and traditional attire, MRK serves as a platform for finalists to showcase their talents. Many past contestants have gone on to successful careers in the creative industry.

For the first time in its history, MRK collaborated with Imago Shopping Mall to host a two-day showcase on May 24 and May 26, introducing its 49 finalists to the public. The first day featured a full presentation of all contestants, who walked individually, donning outfits from Sacoor Brothers and Sacoor Blue. The contestants later divided into two groups, one half showcasing Sacoor Brothers’ premium range and the other half displaying Sacoor Blue’s casual wear. This collaboration highlighted the versatility of both the contestants and the brands, presenting a range from suits to T-shirts and chinos.

culture and heritage. By supporting the Buvazoi Tavantang Kaamatan, they honour Sabah’s traditions while showcasing the elegance and versatility of their fashion lines.
