Do We Still Go To The Cinema?

Do We Still Go To The Cinema?

A Bit of Culture returns at a new time, but with the same old fun, banter and thoughtful conversations. Joining Kam Raslan on his usual cultural adventures are Na’a Murad and Sim Wie Boon. They start the show by talking about our cinema-going habit and whether we still make the effort to do so, especially with alternative options out there. From there, they then talk about the instant gratification attitude that has plagued the entertainment industry recently, expecting instantaneous results from the products that they put out. In the second part of the show, Kam reflects on whether American cultural soft power is on the decline. Three cultural topics that will make you think and reflect, so tune in!
