Telecommunications operator CelcomDigi Bhd (CelcomDig) is calling on all Malaysians to reconnect with their roots, through a festive film.
Drawing inspiration from the traditional Iban custom of Bejalai, the film “Bejalai: Journey of Inspiration” explores the timeless rite of passage where young Iban men set out on journeys to seek wisdom, wealth or fame, before returning to their communities to inspire others.
The film features Malaysia’s Olympian sprinter, Watson Nyambek – fondly known as The Flying Dayak – who shares his own remarkable journey of Bejalai.
While Watson achieved extraordinary success on the global stage, his most cherished accomplishment remains the moment he returned home to share his triumphs and honour the community that shaped him.
“As we continue to connect over 20 million customers, we strive to inspire Malaysians to pursue their individual paths to greater heights by equipping the local communities, especially youth, with essential digital skills and safe Internet habits to thrive in a fast-evolving digital economy,” the company said in a media statement.
“Through its 98 National Information Dissemination Centres (Nadi) in Sabah, Sarawak and Labuan, CelcomDigi together with partners will continue to provide access to future digital skills and raise awareness of digital risks to communities, enhancing participation and representation towards shaping an inclusive digital society.”
The telco invites Malaysians to reflect on their journeys and achievements, close the year with gratitude and begin the new year inspired to create new possibilities.
