A Brief History of Malaya’s Road to Independence
Update: 2025-09-04
Description
We have often heard about the role the elite mainstream political actors played in Malaysia’s independence struggle. But the reality is much more nuanced. Our independence is also a story about grassroots organising and resistance among workers, students, feminist groups and more.
Which is exactly what the exhibition called Seeds of Resistance: Journey Towards Independence is all about. The exhibition, organised by Raja Ahmad Aminullah, a prominent Malaysian poet, writer and activist, is currently ongoing until the 29th of September at GMBB Kuala Lumpur.
In this episode, we do a brief reflection of our journey to independence and discuss the ongoing exhibition with Raja Ahmad.
