The Kids Are Good

Here's a good thing you need to know: kids are not just dreaming about a better world—they’re actively shaping it! It's Children's Day today, and we're celebrating young heroes making a difference in their communities, from creative musicians and artists to environmental champions. In this episode, you'll hear from two different groups, first eco-champions Tan Jhie Rei, Liong Jie Yee and Lee Wing Sing who are part of the "Green Panthers" group from Sri Bestari Private School, who are dedicated to protecting the planet through impactful environmental projects. Then we hear from Mya Elisha Arif Rafhan, Arif Aamil Hamka Arif Rafhan, and Arif Ezra Avicenna Arif Rafhan, a trio of siblings and talented musicians from "Young Arif!" a junior rock band who also make stop-motion & VFX videos.
