Today afternoon, I went for the launching ceremony of Zunar’s cartoon exhibition in Dataran PJ, opposite Amcorp Mall.
I was surprised to see the cartoons were enlarged and displayed at the roadside. The exhibition was supported by MBPJ and Tourism Selangor, it was officiated by Selangor Exco Elizabeth Wong.
In Zunar’s speech, he mentioned that the main problem in the country is corruption, that’s why many of his cartoons were on corruption, and these drawings brought him problems.
He also said that no printer wants to print his cartoon books because all the printers were harassed by the police.
Zunar won many awards internationally but he is being persecuted back home. He is facing 9 counts of sedition charges now.
Let’s support Zunar by visiting his cartoon exhibition in PJ from 3 – 10 September, and buy his cartoon books.
