Journalist and sociocultural advocate Niki Cheong has spent the last decade writing about life in Malaysia. He's now the author of the book Growing Up In KL: 10 Years Of The Bangsar Boy, a compilation of 40 articles from his popular newspaper column The Bangsar Boy from 2006 to 2016.

His stories present a snapshot of Malaysian life through the eyes of an urban city teen from the 1980s to a fully realised progressive man of today. And in this episode of The Library Is Open, he reads a 2008 story about the personalities and characters that make up his neighbourhood community.
