Sulaiman Ghani 'truly one of a kind'

Sulaiman Ghani 'truly one of a kind'. [Newspaper] (2019)



Abstract

THE legacy of the late Professor Sulaiman Ghani in promoting batik is evident the moment one steps into the activity centre at the Kajang Women’s Prison. In June 2009, Sulaiman had taken over the teaching of batik-making as part of the textile rehabilitative class there. His first batch of students consisted of six inmates and a few prison officers. “I was here when he started teaching the inmates. It was his personal project at first and with time, he brought his UiTM students to join the class. “We were constantly in contact to talk about selling our batik products. He would always bring our batik products everywhere he went, even as far as one of the fashion shows in Paris, as a way of promoting it.
