Band boy done good


Many will remember him as the leader of the 1990s urban pop boy band KRU, but Norman Abdul Halim is fast making a name as a captain in Malaysia’s entertainment and media industry. With KRU Kartun Studios’ first 3D animation movie Ribbit to be released next month, his sights are now set on the global scene. 

BE honest... how many of us who grew up watching Filem Negara Malaysia’s Hikayat Sang Kancil animation clips – better known as the “Jangan Monyet” cartoons – on television in the 1980s and 1990s ever imagined that Malaysia could one day be a global animation hub?
