MALAYSIAN GODS is back! The documentary directed by Amir Muhammad will have its screening at 8pm on Thursday, 7th May, Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall.

There will be a panel discussion after the screening by Elizabeth Wong (Parti Keadilan Rakyat), Arul (Parti Sosialis Malaysia) and Amir is hoping that there will be an UMNO Youth representative. The session which titled "Reformasi, Tsunami & Beyond" will be chaired by Amir himself. We all know what happened in 1998 and 2008, but what will the country be like in 2018? The panel will put on their futuristic glasses.
