THIS is it, folks! Malaysia’s Academy Awards moment has come courtesy of Us-based producers Cheyenne Tan (originally from Sarawak) and Teng Poh Si (from Penang), whose short subject documentar­y St Louis Superman – about American activist Bruce Franks Jr, who was inspired to go into politics after a 2014 shooting of an unarmed black teen by a white cop – is up for an Oscar! Kenneth Chaw interviews them to get their reaction to their nomination. We’ve also got the story of Singaporea­n celebrity Aliff Aziz, caught in a different kind of video, behaving badly in a public scuffle and flashing himself.
