Changing mentalities is what needs to be done instead of imposing laws that encroach on personal and individual freedom.

From the artist Gan Siong King (@yarimoriya): . Zan Azlee a.k.a Fat Bidin - Lecturer, Multimedia Journalist, Documentary Filmmaker, Writer, New Media Consultant . I first met Zan on a shoot some years ago. But we didn’t get the chance to talk, as I was busy running the art department. Zan was an actor on that set, playing what looks like a young Dato who speaks with a faux British accent. My memory of Zan is, besides being a funny fella, he is one of those multi-talented and multi-hyphenated types. For my upcoming show, Zan will take on the unenviable task of being the moderator for the artist dialogue. Thank you Zan for agreeing to do this. . Come join Zan, Chia Koon, Jeff, Nik and me for a conversation on 6th Dec (Friday), 8pm at A+ Works of Art, D6 Sentul. As seating is limited, please RSVP Nikki Ong: nikki@aplusart.asia I +6018 333 3399

How many of you out there have skipped Friday Prayers before? Tell me the truth! Now how many of you think you should go to jail for it? Come on! Let me know what you really think! These six guys just got jailed for a month in Terengganu! Aduhh!! . Watch the full episode of #FatBidinKnowsEverything at FATBIDIN.COM or YOUTUBE.COM/FATBIDIN. You can also find the link in the bio.

This week, on the campus of #UiTMRaub, marks the end of #TheRoadToRadicalisationTour. Over the course of a year, we brought #TheRoadToRadicalisation documentary (co-directed by me and @ezrazaid), about Hani, whose husband is a convicted IS terrorist, to all 14 states in Malaysia. We screened it to a myriad of people from university students to lecturers and professors, professional journalists and government officials. Discussions we had were thought-provoking and sometimes heated and intense. But we proved that we could create safe spaces for discourse with no judgment and filled with open-mindedness and understanding. All this could not have happened without @usembassykl, @coolerlumpur, @bfmradio and @riazurrahman. And the opportunity to travel and work with my wife @sherilabustaman cannot be compared with anything! I love my job! By the way... the documentary’s brilliant illustrations would not have existed without @arifrafhan! #Documentary #CVE #PVE #CounterViolentExtremism #PreventingViolentExtremism #DocumentaryFilm #RadioDocumentary #Podcast #Journalism #UiTM #Raub #Bromance

As usual, every week, I impart some useless wisdom in my Talking Edge column in Options, The Edge. And this week, I explain to you about: . 1. China's Xi Jinping being a literary intellectual. 2. Woke AF documentaries. 3. The nomadic hotel for out of touch rich people. 4. Mass extinction that should kill off the human race. . Go grab a copy of The Edge to read my Talking Edge column, or go to FATBIDIN.COM (link also in the bio).

Imagine that during Tanya Gomen!
