Begpacking, Art & Hari Raya

This week our three cultured trio discuss the upcoming Hari Raya celebrations and also the need of giving context to art. Our esteemed host Kam Raslan is joined by video producer Rahmah Pauzi and Bigger Picture's Sharmilla Ganesan; and Kam starts us off with his take on "begpackers", foreigners travelling on a budget in our region. Next, fresh off her visit to an arts exhibition in Singapore, Sharmilla poses the question to our cultural trident - do we have to give context to local arts? And finally, Rahmah shares her personal Hari Raya preparations with her tale on baju Raya tailors.
