Cartoonist Extraordinaire

Political Cartoonist Political cartoonist extraordinaire that is Zunar the man... Look at the sheer brilliance in the works of this this man.... A cartoonist long considered an antagonist for BN.... He is talented enough to rival the Datuk who created Lat the cartoon series.... An iconic cartoon all Malaysians readily indentifies with...... Lat brought worldwide fame and fortunes to its creator... Heck, he was duly rewarded with a honorific Datuk title... And as fairy tales ending go, he basked in the occasional limelight... Keeping a low profile and do whatever was politically right... But for Zumar the cartoonist, holding true to his political stand... It has been a long running saga of persecution over the works from his pen... He is up to his nose in charges brought up in the court of justice... And some of his creative works are deemed seditious... He has acquired international fame and status... But in his countryland, the political masters reduce him to pariah status.... It is a tribute to the man that he still churns out satirical cartoon pieces... Any lesser man would have folded or changed his political stand.... Given the myriad charges and persecution he has to withstand.... But for the artist in cartoonist Zunar, he persists unflinchingly.... To pursue his noble art of highlighting political wrongs in his cartoons... Make no mistake, he is a genius at odds with the political masters... He could have been even more famous, a high flying Datuk ..... If only he sell his political soul to the Devil and revel in the adulation.... Should he decide to change his alliance and be true to the establishment...
