Introduction

phase 2 (2016-2018):

REDISCOVERING EACH OTHER

Documentary


  our JOURNEY  AROUND MALAYSIA 

When Phase 1: Vision for Malaysia was over, we realized that we weren't even close to scratching the surface of discovering and understanding Malaysia. This led us to The Rojak Projek's Phase 2: Rediscovering Each Other. From Malaysia Day 2016 onwards, we traveled through our 13 states and achieved two main things:

1. Filmed a documentary of our 'not-so-perfect-but-very-heartcore' journey where we collected Malaysian stories in a bid to understand the different cultures in each state and discover elements of unity and 'rojak' (mixes) embedded in their local architecture, languages, people and many other areas.

 

2. We continued our art movement and in the process of exploring different kinds of food, we were able to experience interesting local cultures and meet tribes that we have never even heard of before.

Our journey gave birth to produced 540 artworks showcasing Malaysians from all 13 states. Why 540? Because Malaysia was born on the 16th of September 1963 (54 years prior to 2017) when East Malaysia was included as an essential part of the Malaysian federation. Without Sabah and Sarawak, Malaysia would not be Malaysia. In 2018, we added the final 10 to make it 550 in conjunction with Malaysia Day.

That night itself, we took a chance to meet the Lunbawang community as they were preparing a feast for an engagement between a Kelabit and Lunbawang. As we were worried we may step over the line not knowing about their culture, we were in fact accepted and immediately took part in their activities. Here's Faye trying to prepare Kuih Kelupis.

As our journey ends in Lawas, we went to a kopitiam that had many Muslims working. It's very rare to see a Muslim person serving us pork as it would be a culture shock since we live in Kuala Lumpur. We respect the Sabah and Sarawak community because they are about respecting everyone. Meat doesn't stop their friendship or respect for one another.

MADE in MALAYSIA

 


 

This is not about food art. This is conceptual work, portraying the story of a few young Malaysians who went on a journey around Malaysia to rediscover our diverse people and culture. A journey that aims to transform the idea of being colour-blind to colour-embracing (from 'Malay', Chinese' 'Indian' and 'lain-lain' to Malaysian), in a time where the call for unity has never been more profound. In their travels they found that we are all 'Rojak' (mixed) that speaks about the beauty and diversity of our country and identity. They realized that after almost 60 years since Malaysia was formed, Malaysians are still ignorant about the many other people and cultures in their own land. 

PS: All food were eaten, packed, documented, delivered to bless others and causing us to gain terrible weight for the entire year!!! With the works we've done so far, we've only managed to cover a portion of Malaysia in it's entirety! That means that there is so much more to discover! Now, you can play a part in helping us uncover the hidden gems that Malaysia has to offer! Find out how.

Pssst... If you've noticed, some of our food originates from different parts of the world like China, India, Thailand and Indonesia. It ties back to our roots, our history and where we're from and it's definitely part of our identity! Malaysian food however is a very interesting combination as a result of the intermingling of our taste buds. Most of our food in Malaysia is not the same. We have unique flavours and we believe our food takes it to the next level. Despite our differences, Malaysians are often seen together eating food from each others cultures. It's truly and uniquely something that unites us all!

Our Final Chapter (2018)
We're recording down our last leg till Malaysia Day (16th September)

12th August, Sunday, 5:00 pm @ KLCC

"DEAR MALAYSIA,
 

My girlfriend, Deanna, and I are coming to K.L. for 3 days from Aug 11-14 (this Sat - Tues), and have decided to do a meet up to talk about travel, take selfies and make a fun video together!" - Drew Binsky's facebook


Faye Lim and Jagjeet Singh 'gung-ho' their way to KLCC in hopes to get The Rojak Projek's unity message featured in Drew Binsky's video. We tried to share our concept with him our but... someone cut us off... Damn-it! After trying to be 'thick-skin' for a second round, we managed to get a little of his attention to set a meeting. Thank God we knew Pixie Cigar (from his video) to remind him that we were going to meet up the next day. We also had the help of Max Junior from Sabah who 'thick skin' his way, offering to help drive him to our location as we were being interviewed by Astro Awani that day! Yeap, we got his attention through the crowd and as shown in the video below, he already has a strong sense of what The Rojak Projek has been talking about all this time... even before meeting him.

OMG... We got Drew Binsky's interview on the same day as Astro Awani!

13th August, Monday, @ Pickle & Fig, TTDI

 

2pm - 3pm

with Drew Binsky

3pm - 6:30pm

with Astro Awani

It wasn't easy! Drew was busy and he thought we were interviewing him! Oh nooo! At 10:30am, Faye had to call and clarify hoping to still get the chance to be interviewed by him as there's an important message about diversity we were hoping to share! He gave us 20 seconds to convince him, and we managed to through sharing our story and our journey!

Special thanks to both Drew Binsky and our new Sabah friend, Max Junior who took the initiative to help drive him to us!

By 3:00pm, as mentioned earlier, we had a pre-arranged interview with Astro Awani. They were so kind to give us the opportunity to allow younger Borneons to share their stories (Terence Tapah, Emily Elizabeth, Niney Chong and Kendrick Ng), while also speaking to those we met along our journey as to why they decided to help us with this project around Malaysia (Arnold Louis, Jacq Hannah, Jagjeet Singh and Joselyn Chong). Faye and Rachel were the last to share their experiences, unfortunately not joined by Jon Cool, who was stuck editing the final documentary.

Let's just say that this marks a special day, brave hearts spoke and fiercely, The Rojak Projek chooses to stay steadfast in our purpose and hopeful in our vision. We look to our fellow Malaysians with joy and pride, speaking their minds.
