The Kelantan Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry office plans to enter the Malaysia Book of Records for the participation of one million people in a dikir barat performance.

Director Aidil Afizie Daud said the performance is expected to take place at the end of October, in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2020, at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium or in participants' respective villages.

"With a population of 1.6 million people in the state, it is not impossible to achieve the target, because almost all the people in the state know how to do dikir barat.

"If everyone can gather at the stadium, we will do it there, if not we will do it via live streaming," he told reporters at an event in Kota Bahru last night.

He said people from outside the state, including in Terengganu, Pahang, and Negeri Sembilan, would also be invited to join the event.
