Hello everyone!! How's it going?
It has been a really exciting two weeks for the dream team!
We attended the KOMAS film festival in London and hosted the London working group in the recent 2009 Northeast Malaysia Forum! Not only we had plenty of fun, we met some really inspiring individuals at both events and recorded malaysian dreams on video for the very 1st time!
The KOMAS freedom film festival 2009 presented a series of thought provoking documentaries with focus on social justice and human rights in Malaysia. For those who missed the event, not worry, the documentaries are now available for streaming on their website!
Do check them out and share them around :)
One of the documentaries featured a letter written by Darrell, a 10 year old boy from the UK, to Dr. Mahathir, calling the logging practices in Malaysia 'disgraceful'. True to his form, our dear Tun writes back with the full might of his scorn (and hilarious sarcasm). A copy of this letter and Tun's reply (page 1, page 2 & page 3!) are also available on this website.
What do you think? Can you see Darrell's point? Can you see Tun's? How would you go about producing change?
Till the next fortnight,
Watch this space for our dream videos! (we're posting them up soon!)
