THE popular cartoon characters, Upin & Ipin, inadvertently became orphans during their debut due to a tight deadline, Utusan Malaysia reported.

“At that time, the show was only five minutes long. It was shown on TV9 during Ramadan in 2007, and the Hari Raya Puasa show had to be completed in a hurry.
