IN the bustling heart of modern Kuala Lumpur, amid the towering skyscrapers that define the city’s skyline, a momentous gathering got underway at the Pentas Dunia in Dewan Merdeka of the World Trade Centre.

STEPPING into the dimly lit sports hall of Heritage International School in Petaling Jaya, the air hums with anticipation and energy. Youngsters, boys and girls, looking smart in their electric blue sports T-shirts, eagerly line up, clutching paddles in their little hands, their eyes gleaming with excitement as they await their turn on the court.

IN the heart of Malaysia’s lush landscapes, a quiet revolution is taking root. Nestle Malaysia’s ambitious reforestation initiatives, Project RELeaf and its predecessor Project RiLeaf, recently hit a remarkable milestone: the planting of 2.8 million trees.

“IT’S just like another world,” I find myself mumbling in awe as I take in the vision of the grand castle-like building in front of me. Squinting to get a better look through my dirty windscreen as I slowly manoeuvre my car into the last parking bay not far from the entrance, the words “Moorish Spain” swim to mind.

“OH, I’m late!” I mutter to myself, quickening my pace in the direction of the sleek-looking cafe with a stunning moss-pillar centrepiece just mere metres away.

AS the van rolls to a noisy stop on the gravel path, I emerge excitedly into the embrace of a picturesque day, greeted by the soft caress of a gentle breeze and vibrant hues of a Johor sky painted in brilliant blue.

IN the heart of the British capital’s urban sprawl lies an unexpected sanctuary: the Battersea Power Station. Amidst the industrial grandeur of this Grade II*-listed building in southwest London, a new art installation is set to captivate and inspire visitors this spring.

IN a world where pixels and lenses vie for attention, there also exists a realm where passion meets purpose; where each click of the shutter captures not just an image, but also a moment of existence frozen in time.
