Magic happens when a person shows up at the right place at the right time. On November 7, 2024 while looking for yummy eats near Jalan Pudu in the Bukit Bintang neighborhood in Kuala Lumpur … the colorful art on the glass doors of GMBB hooked my attention. So, I entered …

GMBB is a creative community mall in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur… that aspires to be an enterprising hub for Malaysian creatives, artists and artisans to do more together.
The following day when my sister – children’s advocate and author MARIA KAWAH LEUNG (LITTLE HEROES OF BAY STREET) – visited me, it was my turn to invite her to enter the world of GMBB. When I said to her “I haven’t gone to the other floors…” she replied “Let’s go.”
Terima kasih to the artist (one of the ambassadors at the art exhibition) who invited us to experience “TELUR PECAH 4.0″ on level 3A and level 5… and introduced us to founding curator Phillip Wong!
Since 2021, Telur Pecah has been about making art accessible to everyone, breaking creative, cultural, and economic boundaries.
Telur Pecah 4.0
Phillip Wong’s mission: Inspire innovation, cultivate creativity - Telur Pecah is about making art accessible to everyone, breaking creative, cultural, and economic boundaries

An exhibition in Kuala Lumpur, Telur Pecah 4.0, is set to take visitors on a journey through artistic interpretations expressed in a wide range of visual styles and mediums.
Telur Pecah’s founding curator Phillip Wong said the fourth edition of the exhibition at the GMBB shopping centre serves as a platform for artists to showcase their work.
The exhibition’s thought-provoking themes – Altimedia, Futures of Anthropocene, Simfoni Surealis, and The Culture Journey – each offer a perspective on the world, as seen through the eyes of the artists, to convey meaningful messages.
“I’ve invited four curators, Danielle Lin Shannon, Eng Jun Yi, Jakob van Klang and Luqman Rosnan, to curate the thematic sections,” said Wong.
“This gives them exposure to various aspects of organising an exhibition, such as administration and marketing, offering them skills beyond being just artists.
“I also hope the public can see the different elements that curators bring out,” he said, adding that this year’s exhibition included over 500 artworks by 198 artists.
“This year, we have expanded the exhibition across two levels of the mall.
“While the thematic exhibition takes place at Level 5, the Inspire Innovation Cultivate Creativity exhibition on Level 4 features artworks from special needs and disabled artists, besides pieces by university art students and children as young as three,” he said.
Six international artists are also represented.
GMBB general manager Lim Ying Hui, who officiated the launch said, “Telur Pecah has come a long way since its inaugural exhibition in 2021.

Coach Teresa . . . starting a new format with my blog posts
Since I wear 3 hats, as writing career coach & author who helps you Build Your Writer’s Platform & Fanbase In 22 Days / editor & manuscript consultant who helps you identify themes and archetypes / novelist of Love Made of Heart who encourages adult children of mentally ill parents to speak openly about the stigmas and find resources for their families, I wish to divide my post into 3 sections.
As 22-day Platform-Building Coach:
Promote yourselves by linking your names & your projects to these recognized events. According to Chase Calendar of Events, November is:
- Adoption Month, National

Every month is relevant to marketing your literary work. Day 19 of my workbook Build Your Writer’s Platform & Fanbase In 22 Days demonstrates the beauty of linking your name to a date that is celebrated or recognized for the entire month–you’ll have a whole month to re-use one piece of writing.
As Editor & Manuscript Consultant:
Give yourself reasons to plot & write and replot & rewrite!
November is National Novel Writing Month (founder is Chris Baty)
Write Nonfiction In November (founder is Nina Amir)
December is International Plot Writing Month (founder is Martha Alderson, The Plot Whisperer)
Read or reread a book – I’m reading Nothing Can Scare Me Now: Managing Breast Cancer So It Doesn’t Manage You by Juliane Cortino (a colleague at Women’s National Book Association)
As author of Love Made of Heart:
I found “Veterans and Mental Health: We Owe Them Better” blog post by Mike Fitzpatrick, NAMI Executive Director
Last year, more than 1.2 million veterans were treated by the U.S. Department of Veterans’ Affairs (VA) health care system, about a third for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). That is an increase of about 25 percent from four years before, as troops return home from Iraq and Afghanistan.
The Washington Post reports that approximately 18 veterans die from suicide every day. Yet in survey released in September, the VA reported that 70 percent of its doctors, nurses and social workers believe the system lacks the staff and space to provide adequate mental health care. More than 37 percent said they cannot schedule an appointment for a new patient within 14-days.

Mr. Fitzpatrick,
Thank you for writing this post to shed light on what we can do to advocate for better care of our veterans and their families. I linked your post to mine dated November 16, 2011 http://lovemadeofheart.com/blog/ so that my blog fans can get resources for their loved ones. My beautiful mom (not a Veteran but was an orphan during World War II) suffered mental illness all her life and I use my writings to honor her. In September I met NAMI Sonoma County board member Ron Shaw at the Sonoma County Book Festival. Rosemary Milbrath, Executive Director at NAMI Sonoma County, has contacted me and I hope to deliver my Heroes, Tricksters & Villains interactive workshop to the Sonoma County community in California in 2012. Sincerely, Teresa LeYung-Ryan, author of Love Made of Heart; mental health advocate
