A New Malaysian Design Agenda

Thinklab Design Conference, 13th March 2010National Art Gallery, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Design is…

…a plan or drawing produced to show purpose

Post Industrial Future is here

…everyone is looking for a new industry

A Creative Person is…

a person having good imagination

or original ideas

+ social

responsibility

Industry is…

domain in which a great deal of time or effort is expended

Why? …because

• Wealth creation and employment

Lee Kwan Yew said, “I got it wrong…”

He ignored creative industry which

makes money

Today, Singapore is building up as a regional and international hub

for visual art

Host to international art exhibition

The Philippines, Indonesian and Thai are offering so much ingenuity in the

art, and crafts as well as music plus very rich national heritage and culture

The Government don’t have to spend

a lot of money on creative industry

But all they need to do is to provide

facilities and give supports

It generates money and yet doesn’t produce pollution

They do attract the young and talented

Envisages that…

Model One:

Make Perlis as a silk hub for the Northern Zone, adopt Thai silk cottage industry

Model Two:

Provide more location and space for art attractionsin major towns.All buildings shouldallocate fun forart installationsor painting

Model Three:

Build a new Museum of Modern Art+ Establishment ofMalaysia’s firstArt AuctionAuthority to inculcateart investmentculture

Model Four:

Campaign the one village one productconcept

Model Five:

Art and DesignEducation and appreciation should beginfrom pre school level

Model Six:

Reconstruction of our actual heritage

Celebrate Kufi Square

Kufi is a Font

Kufi coin

Kufi plate

Satu Malaysia

Creativity should contribute to betterment

of humanity and must be important

Artists and Designers should play role for national harmony

because…

We need to Live in Peace!

Won’t we?

Kesopanan dan kesusilaan

Dan Wollmering - Sydney

"I like the way it shimmers and makes my eyes dart around the canvas. Although the overall shape and design holds the composition together, in a maze format, I find the flamboyant colours want to deconstruct it – releasing fragments - expanding outwards . . "

Allah peliharakan Sultan

‘Nugrahkan dia segala kehormatan

Sihat dan ria kekal dan makmor

Luaskan kuasa menaungkan kami

Rakyat dipimpini berzaman lagi

Dengan merdeka bersatu hati

Allah berkati Johor

Allah peliharakan Sultan
