Here’s a ‘Selamat Hari Raya‘ video I did for The Malaysian Insider. Damn… I had to chase all these people around town trying to get them on video! Getting stuck in traffic during buka puasa time in the heavy rain is no fun! But I got it all done in three days. I wish I could have gotten more people.
I even met Tan Sri Muhyiddin, the Deputy Prime Minister, at a press conference. But the bugger actually snubbed me aside when I asked him if he would like to wish ‘Selamat Hari Raya’ to The Malaysian Insider audience, he just said “talk to my people” and walked away. I had my video camera all ready and he just needed to look into the camera and say ‘Selamat Hari Raya’. It wouldn’t have taken him more than 5 seconds!
Selamat Hari Raya people!

SEPT 18 — Once upon a time, there was a guy named… Zac! Zac Azron. Quite a good-looking guy, in fact. Most girls wanted to be with him while most guys wanted to be him (some guys also wanted to be with him!).
Always dressed casually, he had the rugged and boyish good looks which just screamed sex appeal. But this story is not about Zac’s good looks. It’s about a situation which Zac found himself in.
Zac happens to be a journalist and documentary filmmaker. Moderately successful, he has managed to get several of his films broadcast on Malaysian national television. And being a journalist, he always strives to tell true stories of ordinary folks. [Click to read more]
