Penang Watch

Screening of the clan jetty film where it belongs

The chinese version of the clan jetty film `Forgotten' was screened last night at the Chew Jetty's temple at the end of the jetty. About 50 people -mostly jetty residents, turned up despite continual rain through the evening and a last minute change of venue. The original venue was at the community hall -but the Penghulu had a last minute change of mind -not sure if he received a secret phone call from some politicians or what. Anyway since many residents may want to watch the film there would be more screenings later. Lecturer Loh Cheng Sun and a Chew Jetty RA's Exco provided interesting and encouraging feedbacks at the end of the screenings. Some NGO members were among the attendance.

A rescreening of the film -the English version, would be held next Sunday(Oct 21st) at 7.00pm, at D' Space(60 Weld Quay, 4th floor of Wisma Oh). This is organised because many people missed the show at the packed screening at the Freedom Film Fest on Sept 16th. Limited seats (max 60) -first come first serve. Booking of seats can be made through 013-5900339(Ong)
