Today, the Namewee Banglasia kickstarter project failed. 4435 backers only pledged USD186,468. Too far from the USD500,000 target. The “authorities” are using covert means to destroy dissent. They are creatively making up reasons to censor the film when similar scenes by international outfits and filmed in Malaysia get allowed.
They will do the same if you make this film. If this goes ahead, better make sure all the funds have been secured and don’t expect to make any profit out of it.

…

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 8 — Controversial director and YouTube sensation Namewee is running a global fundraising campaign on the American public-benefit corporation platform, Kickstarter, to raise US$500,000 (RM2.1 million) in order to release the director’s cut version of the Malaysia-banned action comedy, “Banglasia”.
…

In partnership with US media platform 8sian Media, which holds exclusive global distribution rights, and Asian digital entertainment network WebTVAsia, founded by Namewee’s frequent producer/collaborator Fred Chong, as its exclusive digital campaign partner, the 40-day campaign offers a six-tier rewards scheme based on the donor’s monetary contribution.

The highest tier, which is US$10,000, will give the donor a guaranteed red-carpet appearance with Namewee, as well as the other stars, during an upcoming official screening, plus a credit mention as an Executive Producer of “Banglasia”. — The Hive.Asia
