A Bit of Culture takes a detour from its usual format, ahead of the upcoming PRN 2023! Last month, a group of producers were sent to the East Coast to learn about what life is like outside the Klang Valley, from all aspects, be it political, social and cultural. While we were in Kelantan, we were given the opportunity to meet Poksu Agel, a highly respected traditional arts practitioner and activist that has been in the scene for years. Producer Haniff Baharudin went to his home to speak to him and discover what being a music and arts practitioner is like in Kelantan and whether social and political climate, and modernity have a huge impact on his craft and life there.

Produced by: Haniff Baharudin
