20th June about 10.00 amThis World Refugee Day, Walk a Mile in a Refugee's Shoes What's it like to be a refugee? To witness your family torn apart by war and conflict? To lose everything you value - family, friends, your home - and be forced to flee in order to save your life? To travel hundreds of miles, on foot through dense jungles and in leaking boats across dangerous seas? This is a journey made by millions of refugees as they flee war, conflict, human rights abuses and persecution. People often misunderstand who a refugee is, thinking that they are migrants looking for economic opportunities. The truth is refugees have no choice but to run, and are unable to return home safely. In Malaysia, as of June 2010, there are some 88,100 refugees and asylum-seekers registered with the UN Refugee Agency. The majority of them from Myanmar, but many also from other countries around the world including Sri Lanka, Somalia, Iraq and Afghanistan. Their journey, and the journey made by millions of other refugees worldwide, is one that is hard for us to imagine. What we know is that in the wake of having lost everything, refugees have an incredible courage and perseverance to remain steadfast and positive in their will to survive. But they need our compassion and understanding and a humanitarian space to be able to rebuild their lives in safety anddignity. 20 June is World Refugee Day. It is a salute to the indomitable spirit and courage of the world’s refugees. World Refugee Day 2010 puts a human face to the refugee issue, that behind the numbers and statistics are real people with real stories and real dreams and desires for a life of safety. What's it like to be a refugee? Walk a mile in a refugee's shoes and experience the lives of refugees at the World Refugee Day celebration at the KL Sentral Station on 19 and 20 June 2010 from 10.00am till 4.00pm, organised by the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR). Visitors will get a chance to experience the journey a refugee makes, and to see what it's like to live as a refugee in Malaysia. Enjoy a refugee bazaar, refugee performances, meet celebrities, win exclusive UNHCR merchandise and more. Free admission. Visit www.unhcr.org.my or call 03 2141 1322 for more information. ________________   Markiza and Peter Hassan performing at the Benefit "Heh - That's Not Your Bass" at No Black Tie 3rd June 2010 The bassist is Alda Tan.

Brown makes a fool of himself
Peter
Brown aka Hassan Peter Brown will make a
fool of himself in public on
Friday 23rd April at 8.00 pm at the Lepaq Restaurant, Kelana Mall - behind the Giant Giant supermarket in section SS6, Kelana Jaya which is off the highway there (beyond Kelana Jaya LRT station). That is, he is entering the competition called BATTLE OF THE ACOUSTICS, along with several other bands and acoustic artists. He will be performing 2 songs completely on his own without the musical assistance of his wife Markiza (foolhardiness in the extreme!) - in fact with just his guitar and harmonica and voice, without assistance of any kind. This might be because he is getting old and a bit soft in the head, but if you would like to be witness to this bizarre experience, it is totally free. The restaurant has a good sound system and there will be plenty of music in different styles courtesy of all the competitors. The restaurant serves food and soft drinks, but no alcohol, so hope you enjoy the evening. Incidentally there is LIVE MUSIC every night of the week at Lepaq except Sundays when they are closed. Otherwise if you feel this is too
risque, there
is another gig called Rocking for the Environment on
the same night (Friday 23rd April) at Little
Havana, Changkat Raja Chulan, KL featuring BenchMarx,
Kyoto Protocol, and the redoubtable Reza
Salleh. But this one will cost you RM30 BUCKS!!
But don't worry, it's for CHARITY to save the DUGONG
otherwise known as the Sea Cow which like so many of the wonderful
species of the EARTH is close to extinction thanks to man and his
relentless and ineluctable activities. Also the bands are
good. Kyoto Protocol was runner-up in the
Global Battle of ther Bands contest late last year, Reza Salleh is
one of Malaysia's finest singer-songwriters and BenchMarx - well you
have to experience these well-seasoned fellas. Start time 8.00
pm. For further info visit the event on Facebook.
