Cultural Wisdom for Climate Action Conference, Bangkok, Thailand

 Earlier this year last January the Siam Society invited me to present my paper on Indigenous Art and Wisdom on Climate mitigation at the Cultural Wisdom for Climate Action Conference, in Bangkok, Thailand.

Such an honour to have this opportunity to speak about my art and the role of indigenous in climate mitigation. I know how small the population of indigenous in the world but our cultural wisdom already saved many forests and biodiversities within from being destroyed in the name of development. 

I got invited to be speaker at COP27, 2022!

Last year I got invited to present my paper on the Role of Indigenous People in Peagtland Protection and Mitigation at COP27 in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt.  I was part of Malaysian delegations that went to the conference on Climate Change 2022. 

Felt so blessed that Global Environment Centre NGO sponsored me to be in Egypt for this special conference. It has to open my door to the world, especially in my activism.

 

I presented a token of appreciation to the Prince of Pahang at the presentation event. I was honored to have the event officiated by the Prince of Pahang during my presentation on that day. 

 I have met many inspiring indigenous leaders and activists throughout the COP27 event. There are some very good conferences at the indigenous pavilion as well.

Of course, my trip won't be complete without visiting a world-famous ancient monument Pyramid of Giza, in Cairo city. I managed to have an off day on Sunday to travel to Cairo by night bus.  First time on a camel ride!

 

Land of A Thousand Guilts, my fourth exhibition to date.

This is my my fourth solo exhibition. First of all I would like to say thank you to anyone who went to my exhibition at Richard Koh Fine Art Gallery. But mostly to my parents and siblings who supported me from beginning of my career as an artist. 

It was tough to be an artist when the pandemic hit, as we need a physical art exhibition to sell our artwork. But i was a bit lucky than other artist in Malaysia, i managed to get this exhibition running just when the restrictions were lifted. So many friends and collectors managed to see my work exhibited in the gallery.
