Yo yo! What can I say? I’m going to sound like a broken record but… I’ve been so BUSY!! Been lecturing at the university (one of the heaviest semesters I’ve ever had!)… and trying to complete a historical documentary for ASTRO… before going to San Francisco for the University of California, Berkeley’s Islam Today Film Festival at the end of this week! Damn!!!!
But still I managed to complete a report for Dutch TV station VPRO’s Metropolis TV. It’s about polygamy in Malaysia… I shot a polygamous Muslim family… four wives and 17 kids! It went on air in Holland last Saturday… but you can watch it online by clicking here.

Yo bros and hoes! I know I know I know! It’s been a while and you all miss me to bits. I can explain though. I’ve been really busy. I’ve been working on some television programmes (of which you will see updates here soon!), on my film The Life & Times of an Islamic Insurgency (updates… including videos… will be up soon too!) and some other journalistic endeavours.
I also got a new gig… as foreign correspondent for a Dutch television station called VPRO TV. My first story for them is about feisty 90 year old Tok Maimun Yusof from Kuala Terengganu who ran for parliament in last year’s General Elections. Metropolis TV (that’s the name of the programme) airs every Sunday on Nederland 3 in The Netherlands. So if you’re there, do tune in! If you aren’t, God is great and you can watch the episodes on their website here. If you just want to watch my story, click here.
Oh… and I’ve also started Twittering! So make sure you get my Twitter updates! Haha!
