Abang Man - Keeping The Wayang Kulit Rhythm Going

A Bit of Culture takes a detour from its usual format to give the host, Kam Raslan a bit of a break. In step producer, Haniff Baharudin, again, for a chat with a wayang kulit musician that’s based in Kelantan. This comes after BFM’s trip to the East Coast a few months ago, to learn about what life is like outside the Klang Valley, from all aspects, be it political, social and cultural. Tune in to hear what it’s like for Abdul Rahman Dollah, or Abang Man, as he dedicates his life to wayang kulit, and his thoughts on how the art can survive modernity and other challenges.
