To join in the pantun fun, simply tweet your original pantun, tag @maszlee and include the following hashtags: #SayangiMalaysiaku #MalaysiaMembaca #PantunSayangiMalaysiaku
No fancy prizes here, winners will, at most get bragging rights and the winning pantun will be featured on the Education Ministry's social media pages.
Get your pantun on by Sept 16, and may the best pantun maker win.
