Sharpened Word - October 2019

SW strives to promote nation-building via our art and literature related activities and events. So, from films and spoken words in the last two months, we are now moving on to culinary but still with the same theme in mind – Does Food Makes A Nation?

Coming 19th October at 22 Hale Street, SW will be graced by a record-breaking five panelists to talk about the most-loved subject by all Malaysians.

It’s Makan and Minum time!

We have with us Professor Khoo Gaik Cheng from the University of Nottingham and the co-author to a culinary literary called Eating Together: Food, Space and Identity in Malaysia and Singapore.

Joining her will be KL-based Ahmad Najib “Nadge” Arifin, director and research from NADGE Academy. Although he is a qualified architect, Ahmad Najib has made food his main passion and his involvement in food has brought him to all four corners of the world.
