Malaysian films competing in international film festival

Cheng laments about the lack of publicity about our filmmakers.

"I was surprised to see the wave of Malaysian film makers making their mark in recent years. It's too bad that their successes (include that of the late Yasmin Ahmad) have not been adequately acknowledged in Malaysia..."

For example, 'My daughter (Li Fa Dian De Nu Er)', a Malaysian film by Charlotte Lay Kuen Lim, is competing in the Rotterdam International Film Festival.
