I am encouraged by the good turn up by you guys for the political film screening :)
Yes finally my film 鸡蛋碰石头 or How My Favourite Opposition Party Fought the PAP
(and lost their pants, again) has a "world premiere" at a private function recently.
Nice to see 50 over people (academics, filmmakers, arts community, politicians from SDP, WP, human rights activists, TOC, bloggers, ex-ISD detainees, trouble-makers etc etc) coming down to watch my film and Martyn See's Speakers Cornered.
Will share my thots once I am not so busy as I am pre-occupied with the Singapore International Film Festival as Mr Ho-spitality Co-ordinator :P
However my activists friends and I are also going to organized another event soon... this April 10 :)
As you are aware IPS have a closed door forum with Mr Steven Gan, Mr Jeff Ooi, Mr Nathaniel Tan (Malaysian Bloggers who made an impact on the recent Malaysian Election)
However we feel that more people should get a chance to hear it and good news is that Mr Steven Gan and Mr Nathaniel Tan are agreeable to our invite to share their thoughts.
Thus You my dear friends are invited to the forum 'Cyber Activism : The Malaysian Experience' on Thursday, 10 April at 7.30pm in Jalan Besar
Confirmed speakers are Mr Steven Gan, the co-founder and editor of celebrated news portal Malaysiakini, and Mr Nathaniel Tan, an internet activist with the Malaysian opposition Parti Keadilan Rakyat.
Local blogger/activist Mr Alex Au will moderate the discussion.
For details of the venue, please RSVP and state the name(s) of person(s) who wish to attend to: daretodocument@gmail.com
Please note that this event is billed as yet another "private function" :P
The forum is jointly organized and sponsored by Martyn See, Seelan Palay, Isrizal, Ho Choon Hiong and Muhammad Shafi'ie. (Our shining happy faces at the Dare to Document recently as we say screw you Film Act)
