..."I know that you are something special
To you I'd be always faithful
I want to be what you always needed
Then I hope you'll see the heart in me"...
Before i accept this award with gratitude, there are a few people i wanna thank for making this possible. Firstly, I wanna thank god for giving me this talent that many people can only dream of. Secondly, I wanna thank my parents for bringing me into this world, though they didnt really teach me how to act well. I also wanna thank my secondary school friends for polishing my acting skills. And especially to Jon, Sam, Sebaz, Keong, Hong, Foo, Ming, Hills, Khai, Zul not forgetting Mrs Ooi, my form teacher for 5 years. If not for her, I will never get the chance to act well. Those mornings when she asks for my Chemistry homework, is where I learn the true art of acting. I also wanna thank Dave for lending me his girlfriend for 30 mins on Saturday when Nurul showed up with her oh so pathetic voice. I acted well. To Denise, you make a good actress as well. This award is for you too.
Acting is an art. So is clowning. The next person who is involved in transforming me onto a true performer has to be my beloved uncle, Cik Nasir. Without him giving me the part time job as a clown at Suntec City on weekends, I will never overcome my fear of making fun of people. Thank you all.
And to my beloved fiancee, Britney Spears. I love you...
......."Newcomer Qamarul Yaqin's acting debut is turning heads, as his first film, Madagaspore, is projected in Singapore. Working towards the revival of local production, he presents an emotional chronicle on the disillusions of Ali, an aspiring young actor, who, like so many others, has grown up in a country racked by an endless economic and social crisis. The 20 year old is faced with eviction as he has 24 hours to find enough money to pay his rent. But, what can he do in such a time of desperation? The young handsome man even starts contemplating prostitution as a possible solution. Will he find the money in time? Nothing certain".....
Above is a short description of my debut movie extracted from LIFE, Straits Times, 15 June 2005.
