The close cooperation between Bernama and Antara of Indonesia has taken another stride forward with the staging of a first-ever joint photography exhibition in each other’s capital. The exhibition is being held in conjunction with the Independence of both countries --Indonesia on August 17 and Malaysia on August 31.
Bernama’s correspondent in Jakarta, Nasir Yusof writes about the exhibition in his blog mynasir.blogspot.com.
Beginning yesterday, the exhibition in Jakarta is being held at Antara Photo Bureau in Pasar Baroe which will run until August 25.
In Kuala Lumpur, the exhibition is at the Malaysian Tourism Information Centre (MATIC) in Jalan Ampang until September 1. A big thank you to the Information Department for their collaboration to hold the exhibition.
"This is the first ever exhibition jointly organised by the brotherly news agencies. Through out their years of cooperation since way back in 1972, no such exhibition has ever been held jointly," says Nasir who has been based in Indonesia since the last three years.
Nasir, who started blogging in July 2007, gives a delightful insight of the life of 'a journalist serving in a foreign land' and of his love to his beautiful loving wife and four lovely, cheerful children.
"My blog won't change the world. But it may change the way my children will see, get to know, and remember more of me especially of this love I have for them," says Kelantan-born Nasir.
