Yasmin Ahmad


If you know Yasmin Ahmad like some do, you probably will be very sad that she has left us.

No, I don't know her personally but her work. I think she is not only talented but bold. She voiced out things that most of us are afraid to, in her films. Differences that could pull us together or tear us apart in this multi-racial country of ours.

If you have watched her films, you would probably know what I am talking about. In her films you can sense that she is trying all she can to unite our people, irregardless of your background, status, race or gender to be the truly '1 Malaysia'. No promises though, not like some of our politicians (hypocrites). Just a message. A very clear and strong message for us to decide for ourselves, for our future generation.

I'm not going to write her profile here, if you want to know just google it. In case you really haven't watch any of her work, here is one for you.






I wonder if there's anyone out there who could continue what she's been doing? Someone with her kind of dedication, compassion and high spirit that might pull our nation together? She's indeed our National Treasure! It's just so sad that we have to lose her so soon!

Yasmin, may you rest in peace!
