Holly Jolly Holidays - A festive season concert in support of NASOM

The holidays are almost here, a time for joy, reflection, and giving back. This year, Holly Jolly Holidays, presented by The Philharmonic Society of Selangor or “The Phil”, brings all three together in a spectacular concert that also supports the work of The National Autism Society of Malaysia. We speak to Brenda James, the Chairperson of  The Philharmonic Society of Selangor, and Cason Ong, the Secretary of the National Autism Society of Malaysia (NASOM), to find out all about this festive concert that not only celebrates the season with beautiful choral performances, but also supports a meaningful cause close to many hearts.
