This week on A Bit on Culture we celebrate International Women's Day with two BFMers - Rahmah and Sharmilla; to discuss three topics in the realm of the arts and culture. Sharmilla kicks off with the issue of tokenism in artiste curation and questions the need for novelty titles like "all-female special" in art productions; Kam gives his take on museums and its cultural significance; and finally Rahmah chips in with her story of women rubber tappers and their role in building our nation.
