If you check through the maintsream press, you might not. Unless I missed any coverage, there was hardly any words mentioned about the Congress organised by MAHKOTA.
This is sad, because whatever the shortcomings were, the Congress was surprisingly well organised. Only the attendance of quality participants can be queried.
As expected, the breakout sessions on the music industry was well attended and participated and also lively. Same can be said about the sessions on media and theater.
The sessions on film was dreary to say the least. At one session only less than a dozen people sat in the break-out session on film.
For those interested, below is some of the papers presented:
RUANG & PEMBANGUNAN MUZIK NEGARA - paper by Dato' Aziz Bakar, analysts - Saharudin Mustafa and Dato' Rahman Hassan.
PELAN INDUK PEMBANGUNAN FILEM - paper by Dato' Zain Hamzah, analysts - Anwardi Jamil and Raja Aznil.
