Kita Kontinjen Malaysia: Celebrating Every Malaysian Tribe This Merdeka at IPC Shopping Centre
Here’s How

When Malaysians visit a shopping mall, we rarely come alone.

Some arrive in groups, searching for the best dining spots and latest deals. Some are dedicated bargain hunters. Others are OOTD enthusiasts, café explorers, window shoppers, or families spending quality time together.

We may shop differently, speak different languages, and enjoy different interests, but we all share something uniquely Malaysian.

This Merdeka and Malaysia Day season, IPC Shopping Centre invites everyone to celebrate that shared identity through Kita Kontinjen Malaysia, a campaign inspired by the many communities, personalities, and passions that make Malaysia wonderfully diverse.

Running from 18 August to 27 September 2026, the campaign transforms everyday mall visits into a celebration of Malaysian togetherness through rewarding shopping experiences, family activities, creative workshops, and interactive experiences.

What Does "Kita Kontinjen Malaysia" Mean?

The word kontinjen often refers to a group united by a common purpose.

At IPC Shopping Centre, every shopper belongs to a different kind of contingent.

There are:

  • Deal hunters chasing the best promotions
  • Makan-makan hunters searching for their next favourite meal
  • Window shoppers exploring every corner of the mall
  • OOTD enthusiasts capturing stylish moments
  • Selfie kings and queens looking for Instagram-worthy spots
  • Families creating memories together
  • Weekend explorers discovering something new

While each group enjoys the mall differently, they all contribute to the vibrant community that makes IPC Shopping Centre feel like home.

Kita Kontinjen Malaysia celebrates this idea. It recognises that our differences are not what divide us. They are what make Malaysia special.

Why Shopping Malls Reflect Malaysian Unity
A shopping mall is one of the few places where Malaysians from different backgrounds naturally come together.

Families gather for meals. Friends meet after work. Children learn through play. Communities discover new experiences.

Every visit creates opportunities for people to connect through shared interests, favourite brands, food, lifestyle experiences, and meaningful moments.

As a neighbourhood mall in Mutiara Damansara, IPC Shopping Centre has always been more than a place to shop. It is a community hub where people from different walks of life come together under one roof.

This Merdeka season, Kita Kontinjen Malaysia highlights this spirit of togetherness by celebrating the many ways Malaysians experience the mall.

Rewards for Every Type of Shopper

Whether you're part of the Deal Hunter Kontinjen or a Weekend Wanderer Kontinjen, IPC Shopping Centre offers exciting rewards throughout the campaign period.

Shoppers who spend RM69 in a single receipt can participate in a lucky spin for a chance to win RM100 e-vouchers. Eligible weekday evening shoppers can also enjoy double spin opportunities.

Visitors can further redeem exclusive Merdeka-themed merchandise designed to accompany everyday adventures.

These practical collectibles celebrate the spirit of Malaysian exploration, creativity, and community.

Join Kontinjen Suara Paling Padu

Every contingent needs a voice.

At Kontinjen Suara Paling Padu, visitors can proudly express their Merdeka spirit by shouting "Merdeka!" three times at the activation area located at Level G, in front of H&M.

Participants will receive a personalised AI-generated Merdeka portrait and stand a chance to win a Sony HT-S100F 2.0 Soundbar worth RM529.

The experience is designed to celebrate patriotism in a fun, memorable, and uniquely Malaysian way while encouraging friends and families to participate together.

Inspiring the Next Generation Through Creativity

For children and families, the campaign also introduces Kontinjen Tak Nak Balik, a series of Merdeka-themed workshops specially curated for Små Club members.

Held at Funland, Level 2, these activities encourage children to learn, create, and celebrate Malaysia through hands-on experiences, colourful crafts, and festive participation opportunities.

Parents can redeem workshop access using 50 Tack Points via the IPC App, making it an accessible and engaging way for young Malaysians to participate in the festivities.

Celebrating Malaysian-ness, One Kontinjen at a Time

Malaysia has never been defined by sameness.

It is defined by the people who bring different perspectives, traditions, interests, and passions together to create something bigger than themselves.

The same can be said of every visitor who walks through the doors of IPC Shopping Centre.

Some come for food.
Some come for shopping.
Some come for inspiration.
Some simply come to spend time with the people they care about.

Yet together, they form one larger community.

This Merdeka and Malaysia Day, IPC Shopping Centre invites every deal hunter, foodie, family explorer, coffee lover, window shopper, selfie enthusiast, and weekend adventurer to celebrate what makes us uniquely Malaysian.

Because wherever we come from and whatever we love, Kita Kontinjen Malaysia.
