Goodbye Y.A - R.I.P

"Acclaimed Malaysian film and advertising director Yasmin Ahmad has passed away at 11:52pm Saturday night at the age of 51, after collapsing from a stroke at a media presentation the day before. She leaves behind a legacy of film that captures the modern multicultural spirit of Malaysia, winning international festival awards and local hearts while at the mercy of conservative censors."

althought i've not a favourite fan of hers, but i do watch a few movie and know about the history of a great woman that inspired a lot of talented talents in Malaysia to test and push their limit in this struggling industry where sensitivities are everywhere from every aspect of our lives.

Thank you for what you've done for Malaysia and for the younger generation. :)

RIP and condolences to the family of Yasmin Ahmad. She is a great lost to us as well and to Malaysia.
