Why The Fascination For Murderers And Tragedies?

Why The Fascination For Murderers And Tragedies?

Another week, another new episode of A Bit of Culture, looking at the many facets of culture that we surround ourselves with, but may not reflect on necessarily. Sim Wie Boon and Marion D’Cruz join Kam Raslan as he talks about luxuries, and how they’re becoming more of a necessity for us these days. After that introspection, they then discuss whether gender equality exists in the art scene in Malaysia, before moving on to discuss our fascination for murderers and tragedies. Three different topics with unique perspectives from our host and guests, and one that you absolutely don’t want to miss!
