Anyone want to watch a Malaysian film, for free, as your first film of the year? Pendatang means immigrant in Malay and still used towards Chinese and Indian Malaysians. Yes, this film is about race. Specifically race in Malaysia - a multiracial country: with Malays, Chinese, Indians, Indigenous people (over 60 different groups) and people called "dan lain-lain" which means "and others" generally Eurasian, Serani, Portuguese... and others. Malaysia is beautifully multiracial and multicultural - indeed we boast about it: "Malaysia, Truly Asia" is our tourism tagline - because where else would you get Malays, Chinese and Indians in one place?! Ok, Singapore, our little brother country that broke away. But there is a racial tension and always have been. This film, Pendatang, intends to spark discussion. Set in an alternative dystopian reality - races are segregated, and we see a Chinese family reassigned a family home - moving into one which was clearly Malay - a traditional kampung house. What happened to the previous family, their furniture and photos still present? Races are forbidden to interact - jail of 20 years at least if you do. But... there is a young Malay girl hiding in the attic. What do the family do? The film is in Cantonese, with a little Malay, and you can choose your subtitles. The producers knew there was no way this film would get past the censors, so they crowdsourced (USD$70k) from the public to make it - and have released it on YouTube so we can all watch it. It was launched on 21st December 2023, and over 700k views on YouTube - definitely way more than a million people - as most of us watched it with others. Content Warning: There are violent scenes, after the first half. Click on the link for the full movie. #Pendatang #Race #Malaysia https://lnkd.in/exaMRr4d

🎉 Just wrapped up a super fun project for South Morang Mazda’s 7th Birthday Sale! 🎉 We wanted to create a video that was as engaging and lively as a kids' party, so we packed it with fun activities to keep viewers hooked. The highlight? One of their sales team members flying through the air during musical chairs! 😂 What I love about working with the team at South Morang Mazda is their commitment to making every video entertaining and unique. This dedication really shines through in our latest project. Humour and team content always perform well, so don't forget to include them in your video content strategy. Check out the video below and let me know what you think! #VideoMarketing #ContentCreation #SocialMediaStrategy

Do you ever feel bored when you don't have any ideas to create something new at work? Here's how I keep my spirits up when I'm working. As part of the event team, watching concert videos or any entertainment videos supplies me with many ideas. It teaches me a lot about how to create a great performance because I can see the lighting concepts, gimmicks that artists use to engage the audience, and much more. Of course, it doesn't cost me a lot. I really enjoy surfing the internet to learn about new things, and maybe someday I could incorporate them into our events. Bringing Bruno Mars to Jakarta would be a dream come true! 😂 How about you? What are you going to do to keep improving your skills?

Scoring Music for Commercial Advertising 🎵 Thrilled to share my latest project - crafting the musical backdrop for a commercial ad. This opportunity came via a talented friend pursuing their education at a private college in Jakarta, Indonesia. They entrusted me with this important task for their final assignment. With each project, I embrace new knowledge and artistic growth. Here's to the success of Mentai by Chel and many more creative journeys ahead! 🎶 #MusicScoring #Advertising #CreativeCollaboration"

People buy from people. Not the product or service. Recent experience: While returning Singapore from Malaysia, I realised I left my sunglasses in the rented car from a rental company in Johor Bahru (JB). Texted the owner (let's call her S), and thankfully, she told me it was still there. Here was the conversation between S and I in Malay. I'll translate it for non-Malay speaking folks who might read this post: S: Are these the ones? *sends a photo* Me: Yes Alamak! (Singaporean slang for oops) S: Hahaha I guess you're renting a car from us again? Me: Hahaha sis, you're truly a salesperson. God willing, should I decide to head to Johor Bahru, I will rent a car again from you. Yet another light hearted conversation worth a share. Sounds like I'll be back in JB to retrieve my sunglasses soon! 🚗 #relationships #business #peoplefirst
