The Pendatang Cometh #1: Arrival

The immigration debate continues to burn hot and furious in the United States, but the issues within - fear of the Other, jobs being taken away, the age-old desire to be somewhere else and be better- have reflections worldwide, including here in Malaysia. In four episodes, this series takes a look at what it means to be an immigrant and cross borders and bureaucracies to make that happen. Starting at the very beginning: the arrival. This episode was originally broadcasted on 6th October 2015.

The other installments of The Pendatang Cometh series can be found here:

1) Episode 2: Hard Work and Economics

2) Episode 3: Pushback

3) Episode 4: Identity
