Representing Malaysia on such a global stage is an incredible privilege. My sincere thanks to the jury and the Bologna Children’s Book Fair team for this recognition.

The exhibition, “Italian Excellence: Pinocchio’s New Clothes”, will be on show at the upcoming 63rd edition of the Bologna Children’s Book Fair from 13 to 16 April 2026. Following the fair, the exhibition will tour numerous Italian Cultural Institutes around the world.
