MEDIA RELEASE: Adelaide, Australia 3 December 2014 Australian Media MEDIA RELEASE: Adelaide, Australia 3 December 2014 Australian media production company Switchflick Productions announces the release of the documentary ‘The Former First Lady’. Two years in the making and filmed in Malaysia, the film traces the life of Malaysia’s former First Lady, YABhng Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali. The Adelaide based company Swithflick Pty Ltd was given exclusive permission to film the wife of YABhng Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, the 4th Prime Minister of Malaysia, for the documentary. Including archival vision, the documentary follows the former First Lady from her early years where her parents made strategic choices for her, through the upheaval of World War II to her student days in Singapore, where she met her husband. The title “former First Lady” is apt in many ways because Tun Dr Siti Hasmah was a pioneer in so many endeavors. After the war, she enrolled in a medical course in King Edward VII College of Medicine, one of the first Malay women to do so. Graduating from the faculty of Medicine in 1955 she became one of the first Malay woman doctors. In practice the new doctor was confronted with the challenges of a war torn country and patients plagued by disease. This was the foundation for her life in public service. In the 1960s, she attended a public health certificate program in the University of Michigan, USA. Ten years later, she became the first woman to be appointed Medical Officer in the Maternal and Child Health Department, and in 1974, she was the first woman to be appointed the State Maternal and Child Health Officer. On the domestic front Tun Dr Siti Hasmah married Mahatir in 1956. By 1964 her husband commenced a career in parliament. By 1976 he was serving as deputy Prime Minister and in 1981 was sworn in as the 4th Prime Minister of Malaysia, a position he was to occupy until 2003. In her position as wife of the Prime Minster Tun Dr Siti Hasmah continued to pioneer new endeavors. Her voluntary work and leadership in the fields of public health, literacy and drug abuse control have earned her great respect and many honours both at home and abroad. “As an Australian production company we feel extremely privileged for the rare opportunity to research and produce a documentary on such a truly remarkable woman,” says Executive Producer, Vivian Wong. 51b Bagot Avenue, Mile end, SA 5031, Phone: Vivian 0401036459 Sophia: 0421009426 Email: [email protected] ABN: 94142462593 ACN: 142 462 593 Website: www.switchflickproductions.com.au Switchflick Pty Ltd 2014 © Switchflick Producer Sophia Hilmi said, “She is an inspiration to watch, a true icon and a great role model for everyone. We are honored to be given this opportunity” Vivian from Adelaide and Sophia from Penang travelled to Malaysia and worked with a local Malaysian film crew to record the documentary. Post-production was completed in Adelaide. The production is supported by the National Film Department of Malaysia, the Multimedia University of Malaysia (where Tun Dr Siti Hasmah has served as chancellor), BAKTI, Malaysian Women Graduate Association, Ministry of Trade and Industry, Perdana Leadership Foundation, Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur and the University Malaya Library.

  • The Most Unforgettable Character Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad A:Let Us Talk
    The most unforgettable character Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad A:Let us talk about the most unforgettable character in Malaysia. B:Who do you think qualify for this title? C:He must be Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad who was the fourth Prime Minister of Malaysia. D:You are right. Having served the country from 1981 until 2003, he had made many contributions to the country. A:Let me give you some history about him. He was born in Alor Setar, Kedah on 22 December, 1925. Mahathir was a hard-working school student. C:I read that discipline imposed by his father motivated him to study, and he showed little interest in sports. He won a position in a selective English medium secondary school, having become fluent in English well ahead of his primary school peers. B:I can add to that. After receiving his early education at Seberang Perai Malay School, he continued his education at the Government English School which later became the Sultan Abdul Hamid College in Alor Setar. D:You will not believe this. With schools closed during the Japanese occupation of Malaya in World War II, he went into small business, first selling coffee and later pisang goreng(banana fritters) and other snacks. C:I certainly cannot imagine that. In 1947, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad left for Singapore to read medicine at King Edward VII Medical College. He obtained his medical degree in 1953. A: In college he met his future wife, Siti Hasmah Mohamad Ali, a fellow medical student. After Mahathir graduated, he worked as a doctor in government service before marrying Siti Hasmah in 1956 and returning to Alor Setar the following year to set up his own practice.
