California Fitness Jackie Chan Sport Debuts in Malaysia

The first California Fitness Jackie Chan Sport held its Grand Opening in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on Sunday, July 31, 2005. Jackie was on hand for the excitement at the Mid Valley Megamall where the gym is located. Jackie was thrilled with the way the gym turned out after much planning and hard work. Here are some photos from our own camera showing you what the day was like:

Jackie having some fun with Datuk Azalina Othman Said (Minister of Youth and Sports) and Steve Clinefelter, President of California Fitness. Datuk Azalina Othman Said kindly consented to declare the club officially opened!

Just look at the enormous crowd that gathered to see Jackie!

People covered every bit of available space in the mall.

Jackie unveils a star, complete with handprints (a la Hollywood).

This hand-picked group of local children was led by California Fitness instructor Stephanie Au in performing the JC "Mini Boxercise" Class. They are posing with Jackie, Datuk Azalina Othman Said, and Steve Clinefelter.

Jackie does his best to arrange the children for the press photographers.

Solon and Willie join the others for a toast and some confetti.

And a few more......

Breaking with tradition, Jackie nuzzles this baby's ear instead of giving her a kiss on the cheek! The baby seems more interested in the camera than in Jackie!

Jackie has a good laugh.

More smiles.
