"The Kampung Boy" by Datuk Lat at Shell, Jalan Tun Razak

Dreams are powerful! They drive us to imagine the unthinkable and go beyond our comfort zone. As a young boy living in the kampung, Lat was guided by his dreams, which included imaginary flights with friends and family in homemade box carts. This mural brings to life one of last many dreams, a nostalgic memory to illustrate the progressiveness of youth.
Dare to dream! Dare to fly! Dare to reach! Dare to rise! Hence, a jumping pose of us. :p
