It was an evening full of blessings. The 13th edition of Pesta Perdana, Mediacorp's biannual prestigious television event where awards are handed to the the most deserving and popular in Singapore's Malay television, was held on 11 April 2015.
I received the award for "Best Directing" in a Drama Series. The drama in question is season 2 of BINGIT. The 2 episodes I directed deal with sexual addiction.

Unlike previous speech moments in past Pesta Perdana, I have learnt to KISS (Keep It Short Stupid), haha! Thank you to Mediacorp's Eaglevision for the opportunity to work on this important series - largely because I have the chance to bring forward this scarcely-discussed, challenging issue within the local Asian, Malay and Muslim community to the mainstream. My gratitude to the professional leads, Siti Hajar and Nick Mikhail. Also to the production crew (i.e. Sofyan 'lontong' and his crew) for being my important second eye. Filming for these episodes was made more challenging because the production took place during the Ramadan of 2014.
This is the 5th award I received in this category. Similar awards were received previously in the same television event. Alhamdulillah.
