Tales (and Taste) of KL’s Migrants

Kembara Stories and Food Trail returns for the second year, after a successful outing last year. Project coordinators Kevin Bathman, David Tneh, and Swagata Roy, together with Bangladeshi storyteller Nadia join us on I Love KL to share the journey of bringing this walking tour to life, and the importance of sharing the stories of these migrant communities to the larger public. They also speak about the collaboration process with these communities, and the blindspots that we might have missed or overlooked when it comes to interacting with the migrant communities. Oh, there’s also a quick chat on food from these communities and their role in uniting us!
