第一部是本地制作的《Nasir Jani Melawan Lembaga Puaka》(Nasir Jani大战鬼屋),一部关于Nasir Jani及新生代电影工作者与电影审查周旋的故事。联合制作人Zikri Rahman形容“Lembaga”这个词语带双关,既有机构的意思(指涉电影审查制度),也有幽灵的意思(指涉威权主义)。

The media is our window to the world. From newspapers to radio and television broadcasts, to even the mobile phones that we hold dearly in our palms, we will be informed of everything that goes on in the world. In the past, traditional media had complete control over the production and dissemination of information. This was also why the state and its capitalist and political cronies have all attempted to control the media so that they could hold on to their reins of power.
The malicious acquisition of Nanyang Press happened 20 years ago today. Nanyang Press was bought over by MCA, and that caused Media Chinese International Limited to have monopoly over the newspaper industry. It became difficult for Malaysian media to play its role as the Fourth Estate, and it also meant that the jobs of all media personnel were put into a precarious situation.
At the same time, the Malaysian media landscape sees the burgeoning of new media and self-media. On one hand, it sees the rise and fall of news sites that struggled with upholding truth and objectivity on this new platform; and on the other hand, the after-work lives of the salaryman are taken over by the addictive, vulgarity-filled self-media that would amuse themselves to death.
Right now, the political reform of Malaysia has been crippled under our current state of emergency. What can the Media Council do to advocate media reform for the next decade? How would the media stand against the intervention of the state and its capitalist and political cronies in order to foster a media ecosystem that is sustainable and of high quality? Could our media personnel survive through this embattled situation?

Event Description:
“Reflecting on Malaysia’s Media Freedom: 20 Years After the Malicious Acquisition of Nanyang Press” invites its participants to revisit the past wounds of media censorship in Malaysia. Organised in partnership with KLSCAH Youth, Freedom Film Network and WuBenthis online event features a forum, two documentary screenings and discussions that centre around the search for a better future within the industry of Malaysian media.
It was 20 years ago when MCA acquired Nanyang Press Holdings and dominated control over both Nanyang Press and China Press, which caused an uproar within the Chinese community. Chinese associations launched protests and writers went on strike to dissent the intervention of political parties in the media. MCA then sold off their Nanyang Press Holdings, which lead to the monopoly of Media Chinese International Limited over the newspaper industry. We are no strangers to such incidents, for it has long happened to the English and Malay press, and has also been affecting the television, broadcasting, and film industry too.
Through the implementation of government policies and the works of its capitalist and political cronies, the media came under control of the authoritative state before our very eyes. We shall together reflect on the legacy of this crisis, identify the global rise of problems caused by new media, discuss the freedom of our speech in the face of an expanding state power, and contemplate the future of Malaysian news and media.
