His 1st book signing was at Ipoh .. James Book store ... bought the copy of Lots Of Lat ... loved how he brought back to life old Ipoh town in those cartoons .
Dear Datuk Lat, I wish you many many years of good health. We are blessed to have you with us in our smiles. I am Ipoh Mali and we were rivals in all of our sports activities during the glorious 60's and 70's.
I was fortunate to meet Dato Lat personally and get his autograph on first comic book, The Kampung Boy in 1979 in the old MPH bookstore in Singapore.The Kampung Boy always remain my favourite as Lat’s ability to show what is it like to live in a multi racial country. His drawings about his friendship with a Chinese boy is the best!The sensitivity of offering Lat ‘roti pau’ with non-meat fillings by the boy’s family when Lat came to visit the boy shophouse show how understanding and respecting the Chinese boy”s family towards the Malay’s dietary needs even way back in the 50’s probably without knowing the word ‘halal’. Bless you Dato’. Nice meeting you and knowing you are still going strong .
Pembikin humor dan satira tulen Malaysia, semua orang akan suka menatap karya beliau yang mempunyai cerita dan buah fikiran tanpa menerapkan kebencian.
