I have to admit, I burst into tears when I got the news on the passing of Malaysia’s renowned filmmaker, Yasmin Ahmad. I have been her avid fan, from her heart-touching TV advertisements to controversial films like Gubra and Muallaf. She was and will forever be the true icon of 1Malaysia spirit. It’s a big loss to Malaysia! May God bless her soul and rest in peace Yasmin!
