‘The medium is not the message’


Different strokes for different folks: Hussamuddin showing his multilingual CNY greeting card written in Jawi, Chinese, Malay, English and Tamil.

PETALING JAYA: The man behind the “Uninstall Hatred: Reboot Malaysia and Global Harmony” campaign is sending Chinese New Year greetings in multiple languages and in the Jawi script.

Datuk Hussamuddin Yaacub said he was delivering his e-greeting card in multiple languages to drive home an important point -- that differences in written symbols do not alter the meaning of the words.
