Yasmin Ahmad

1958-2009

First Michael Jackson, now Yasmin Ahmad. The good, as it seems, always die young.

Madam Yas, your creative genius, your humility, bravery, passion, compassion and your power to touch every living being will always be remembered. You make me proud to be Malaysian. You, in my opinion, are the one true Malaysian. May your work and your heritage continue to inspire us to be better Malaysians and human beings. Thanks from the deepest ebbs of our hearts for your unique touch.

-Rest In Peace-
