Joe was feeling left out after Faridah had her session. So, it’s Joe’s turn this month!
What does this orang putih know about living in Malaysia? Join our Merdeka edition of “Jom Sembang on with Joe” on 28 Aug, 10am to find out.
Joe will be sharing about his years growing up in Australia, how he got into theatre and what led him to move to Malaysia, his adopted home country of almost 40 years.
You may submit your questions in advance (in registration form) or post them during the sembang session online.
All proceeds will be channelled to klpac & TAS’ Covid-19 Emergency Relief Fund.
