KOMIKKAN CERITAKU is a comic project initiated by Ross Revalina and Editor
Nurelhudaa Jaffar, with support from the National Arts Council. The participants from 9 to 12 years old wrote and created their own 4-page comics upon completing 3 workshops in addition to group and personal online sessions.
Nine Malay artists, some of whom are SCC members, have been invited to illustrate one page of these comics. These illustrations will be displayed at the Singapore Malay Book Festival 2025.
