I was in Guangzhou and Foshan recently.Formally known as Canton

Guangzhou  is located  on Pearl River about 100km north of Hong Kong.

For the first jaunt into Guangzhou I headed down to the metro

and traveled all over downtown.

Feels like walking along Jalan Alur. Wait for my posting from Moscow Insyaallah.

Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) is the place to discover if you don’t already know it.

I was there recently for some  heart touching ..

and  art  searching experience.

The art scene, in fact, is among the most active in asia. There are galleries everywhere with artists working all day— right there on the street—to reproduce masterpieces.

Till we meet in Guangzhou insyaallah … chao tam biet ( Goodbye )

Infront of Mori Tower at Roppongi Hill

I attended TIFFCOM, affiliated market of Tokyo International Film Festival.

My sentimental value.

Its a marketplace for building networks and get closer insights especially from the creative contents industry.

Introducing my company's profile at DLE ( Dream Link Entertainment )

The Malaysian delegate lead by Finas and Emdec consists of companies including Animation Studios, Game Developers, Post Productions and Broadcasters.

Splendid view of the city skyline and the prominent Tokyo Tower

My main objective from this trade mission was to acquire Co-Production opportunities with Japanese companies. Besides that we also looking for Pre Sale and Worldwide Distributors for  our two Animation series.

At Toei Animation studio with my son Tasnim and Adam from GCMA

The organizer , GCMA  had a pre arranged programme  and meetings with a few top animation studios and broadcasters in Tokyo.A chance of a lifetime which could only be possible through goverment initiative.

At Toei Studio which produced the animation series One Piece.

It was a close encounter and indepth understanding especially in the perspective of animation production in comparison with Japanese counterpart.

I personally had a great knowledge especially in the different approach and style in animation productions and also  the diversified marketing strategies.

With the founder of Domo Mr Nobuo Isobe at NHK

Merchandising and  Brand Licensing are the key elements  for  their worldwide business acknowledgement. Looking back from my own perspective its not that  hard to follow their footstep.

A gigantic Robot on top of Ghibli's Studio

Even though the Japanese Anime is standing tall compared to our local Animation industry but I do believe we could rub shoulders in many ways.

A great feeling at my favourite place The Ghibli Studio Mitaka

It was a meaningful visit to Tokyo and  I’m very excited  and look forward for a colourful future insyaallah.  So till then my dear friends Domo Arigato Gozaimas’ta and Sayonara !
