Join us on the last Saturday of Feb to meet the author of our latest book!

Update: We're sold out of tickets. Thank you all!

JOIN US on Saturday 24 Feb, 2024 at 8pm for an insightful session with economists Hafiz Noor Shams and Ooi Kok Hin, who will discuss the central thesis of Hafiz’s book, 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙀𝙣𝙙 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙉𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙣-𝙉𝙞𝙣𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙚𝙨, which links the resurgence of extreme conservatism in Malaysia with the bursting of the Asian economic bubble at the end of the last millennium. Moderated by Fong Min Hun, the session will cover recent historical ground, both personal and national, and seeks to answer the question that Hafiz poses at the end of the book: Is it too late for a progressive Malaysia?

There will be an audience Q&A as well as book signing after. Tickets are RM10 and you will receive a RM10 voucher to use on event day. Spaces are limited so do purchase your tickets early. https://litbooks.com.my/product/author-event-hafiz-n-shams/
