Synopsis:
We ‘R’ Malaysia - There Is Hope, The Musical is at first, a brief travel back in time through the history of the Chinese in Malaysia. From the first and second waves of Chinese initially arriving in the 1400’s and later in the late 1800’s, the story continues to the struggle for Independence. Merdeka marks a turning point in Chinese sentiments towards Malaya. With origin initially rooted in homeland China, the post Merdeka Chinese generation are now granted citizenship, and make Malaya their new home.
The 1980’s experiences unprecedented economic growth from an agricultural economy to an industrialized one. Crossing over to the second millennium, an emerging generation is born into an IT economy era. The past of hard sweat and struggles are mostly left behind and a younger and more affluent generation faces fresh challenges, different from what their forefathers encountered.
The second part of The Musical revolves around Ah Xiong, a young Malaysian Chinese boy who grows up during the unprecedented economic growth of the 1980’s. His older brother, James graduates and becomes a successful lawyer in London. Hoping to reunite the family, Ah Xiong travels to London and attempts to persuade James to return for a visit. Unable to take time off his busy schedule, James sends his son Alosyius to Malaysia under the care Ah Xiong.
As time passes, Aloysius is later offered a scholarship in Britain. However instead of jumping at the opportunity, he’s determined to stay in Malaysia and continue Uncle Ah Xiong’s dreams. Ah Xiong is faced with the challenge of mentoring his nephew. It is a task he feels inadequate to handle on his own. Aloysius’s future now lies in the hands of those who are older, with those who will genuinely invest their lives into the next generation.
