It comprises of 11,620 1.5lt. and 1,246 1.0lt. mineral water bottles and took a total of 250 volunteers 45 days to complete.

This record- breaking feat was officiated by YB Datuk Megat Junid Bin Megat Ayob (former minister of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs) on 16th August and it was displayed at Dataran Merdeka during the 42nd National Day celebrations.
