When I first visited Malaysia, people suggested I watch the old P Ramlee moves - especially the comedies - to get a sense of Malaysians at their best.
Social commentary aside, this is my favourite P Ramlee movie among a crop of evergreen comedy favourites from him.
Trying to explain why P Ramlee comedies are so compelling, charming, fun and inclusive of the best of people...is like trying to explain Nasi Lemak...impossible! It helped me kickstart a wonderful 25-year residence in lovely Malaysia.
P Ramlee's talent and genius is still alive in his movies...and I keep watching for Malaysians to pick up this baton...especially in this age of Netflix: a global stage awaits!
