Seremban family's RM200 flag display for Merdeka competition

SEREMBAN: Jasmin Abu Hassan has turned his Taman Pinggiran Senawang residence into a spectacular display of patriotism using only RM200. The 53-year-old water company supervisor decorated his house with over 150 flags for the 'Rumah Terpaling Merdeka' competition. He received assistance from his wife Rosmaini Mohd Yusof, a 47-year-old kindergarten teacher, throughout the two-week decoration process. Jasmin explained how this year's effort surpassed his previous attempts at festive decoration. 'Last year I only hung flags, but this time I added a special touch by including extra decorations,' he stated. The additional elements included the Negeri Sembilan state flag and portraits of national leaders displayed at his house entrance. 'This year is livelier because there are winners every week,' Jasmin commented about the enhanced competition format. He noted that the decorations have become more creative compared to previous years. 'The children are excited to help,' Jasmin added about family participation in the project. He proudly displayed portraits of all Malaysian Prime Ministers from the first to the current leader. Jasmin achieved the overall runner-up position in last year's competition. The father of six has resided in the neighborhood for twenty-five years. Approximately forty percent of his decorations remain incomplete before the month-end deadline. Taman Pinggiran Senawang Neighbourhood Watch chairman Fadzil Sharil expressed satisfaction with the competition's growth. The 59-year-old chairman noted the event now enters its second successful year. 'We have received growing response, with more than 80 per cent of residents participating,' Fadzil revealed. He observed that participants showcase greater creativity in decorating their homes compared to last year. 'So far, we already have four weekly winners,' the chairman told reporters. Although the prizes are modest medals, hampers and daily necessities, Fadzil praised participants' extraordinary spirit. 'Every week new elements are added, making the neighbourhood livelier,' he remarked. Twenty best-decorated houses will advance to the finals scheduled for September 6. The competition features four judging categories: cheerfulness, arrangement, creativity and neatness. The neighbourhood watch committee has also created a national landmark replica for the celebrations. They constructed miniature KLCC towers using 500 recycled bottles and PVC pipes. This community project forms part of the broader National Month decorations throughout the area. - Bernama

Malaysia targets ASEAN animation growth, unveils largest Riuh X ASEAN Festival

by NURNABIHAH DINI MALAYSIA is stepping up in pushing the animation industry as a viable export sector, with MyCreative Ventures Sdn Bhd and the National Film Development Corp Malaysia (FINAS) providing funding, production support as well as corporate partnership opportunities for the local creators. In a press conference today, Communication Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil (picture) said both agencies will be instructed to go beyond providing funding by working closely with private sectors, as corporate backers begin to recognise the revenue potential of the creative industry, particularly in film and animation. 'The focus will be on creating synergies between corporate backers and creative producers, with MyCreative Ventures and FINAS facilitating in this matter,' he said. Fahmi added that FINAS is also working on initiatives to expand the export of Malaysian intellectual property (IP) to ASEAN countries. 'Malaysian animation like Upin and Ipin has already found strong audiences in Indonesia, while the local films have been well received in Vietnam and Cambodia. 'FINAS aims to build networks and facilitate the movement of Malaysian IP into the broader Asian market as a starting point,' he added. The press conference also highlighted Riuh X ASEAN Marketplace which will be held on Oct 22 to 25 at Stadium Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur (KL) which will showcase over 200 retail brands, food vendors, stage performance from local artists and interactive workshops. The event will include the FrequenSEA Music Conference featuring musicians, producers and industry leaders from across ASEAN countries. In addition, the Riuh Gallery pop-up series will be launched on Oct 1 at selected Klang Valley locations presenting indie music, comedy, poetry and visual art performance. Ahead of the October programmes, Riuh Merdeka 2025 will be held on Aug 30 and 31 at Millennium Monument, Putrajaya with 30 hours of nonstop performance, family activities, showcases and fireworks.

Communications Ministry To Conduct Study On Music Industry Development, Issues And Challenges

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 20 (Bernama) -- The Ministry of Communications is implementing a Music Industry Development Study to examine issues, challenges and proposed action plans towards empowering the sustainable and dynamic development of the Malaysian music industry. Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil said the study is also refining business models, governance, staffing and specific laws that can support the development of the industry. 'For music, we currently do not have a specific act, therefore the ministry is looking into the best way to ensure that an act is drafted to ensure the welfare, sustainability and development of the music industry. 'We are looking into it and this study also takes into account the views and input of music industry players through the Music Industry Protem Committee,' he said when winding up the debate on the 13th Malaysia Plan (13MP) motion for the Ministry of Communications at the Dewan Rakyat today. He said a total of 20 members of the Music Industry Protem Committee had been appointed, from various fields including composers, lyricists, recording companies or studios, singers, musicians, Collective Management Organisations (CMOs), publishing companies, association representatives, academicians and event management. Fahmi said the results of the study would be used as input in determining the availability and need for a specific body to regulate the development of the music industry or to include the music industry in the functions of existing agencies or regulatory bodies. Regarding the proposed amendments to the National Film Development Corporation of Malaysia Act (Finas) 1981 (Act 244), Fahmi said it is expected to be tabled in the upcoming Parliament meeting scheduled for this October. He said the process of improving the act includes expanding the scope of regulation, governance, functions and enforcement aspects of the act. Among the proposed amendments under Act 244 is related to the membership of Finas Corporation Members, which falls under the scope of governance which aims to improve the membership structure so that it consists of experienced local film industry players, has an excellent record of achievement in the field of local film and has credibility in fighting for the welfare of industry players.
