Political Tsunami

ResetRESET: Rethinking The Malaysian Political Paradigm by Suflan Shamsuddin (RM 35.00)

Many would blame Malaysia's current political upheaval on decades of ineptitude, abuse, and race-based politics. Although the electoral "tsunami" suggests a rejection of past methods, an alignment on the way forward remains in doubt.


RESET examines the fundamentals of Malaysia's socio-political fabric and delivers an uncompromising analysis of the underlying causes of the nation's current political crisis. It reveals our collective complicity and explains how, together, we might break the impasse.

RESET is meant for all Malaysians (no matter their political allegiance) who are courages, willing to call a spade a spade, and want true effective and lasting change, in the name of their children, and those of their fellow countrymen.
Elarti

ELARTI 2 published by Stormkitchen (RM 15.00)

A follow-up to ELARTI 1, this 'bukuzin' is a Granta-like publication that highlights new voices of contemporary writing, in Malay as well as English.

From the 'bukuzin': ...ELARTI wujud sebagai kotak pasir suara non-konvensional baru yang belum pernah (dan barangkali payah) mendapat tempat di ruang menstrem.
