In this episode, we talk to Benedict Lim, a queer migrant from Malaysia who is based in Singapore.
He shares his contrasting experience as a member of the LGBTIQ Community in the two different Southeast Asian countries.
Through historical literature and stories, Benedict believes we can realize that the LGBTIQ community has always belonged to the Southeast Asian region.
Check out his work for the Southeast Asian Queer Cultural Festival at SEAQCF.net.
