Tote Bag - Empatbelas 2025 - Perlis (White)
Introducing Syakirin Hadi from Perlis!
What's the story behind your artwork?
20 years ago, in this peaceful and harmonious land, a local song promoting Perlis played on the radio, capturing the heart of a young boy. Years later, he discovered a short film titled “Passport Express”, which beautifully showcased his home state. That 18-minute film sparked a dream.
Today, thanks to APOM, that little boy, now an graphic designer, finally gets to honour his roots. Inspired by the song and film, his artwork is a heartfelt tribute to Perlis, capturing childhood memories, unique local culture, and natural beauty. From the bustling streets of Pekan Kangar to the serene coastline of Kuala Perlis, every element tells a story.
This piece is more than just art, it’s a love letter to the state that shaped him. Thank you once again APOM, for the opportunity to represent my beloved state, Perlis.
