If you are into history, design, old craftsmanship and documentary work, the Building The Beca - Trades Archive exhibition at KongsiKL, Jalan Klang Lama in Kuala Lumpur, which opens today at 2pm, is not to be missed.

This Building The Beca pilot project, initiated by photographer/cycling activist Jeffrey JC Lim, is part of the Trades Archive programme that is working to document the building of a beca from beginning to end.
