DONATION NEEDED: mereka perlukan kamu

Info: http://gudangnoisy.wordpress.com/

Gudang Noisy adalah sebuah Pusat Komuniti yang direalisasikan oleh beberapa rakan disebabkan kurangnya ruang bebas untuk anak muda menjalankan aktiviti-aktiviti alternatif di Malaysia. Malangnya Gudang Noisy sedang menghadapi masalah kewangan untuk mengekalkan ruang ini sebagai ruang komuniti dan gig. Pemilik bangunan ini menetapkan tempoh selama sebulan untuk membayar sewa tunggakan sebanyak RM3000. Terdapat beberapa masalah dari segi pembayaran sebelum Pusat Komuniti Gudang Noisy mula beraktiviti. Hal ini menjadikan situasi Gudang Noisy yang baru sahaja aktif terbantut.

Antara aktiviti yang telah dijalankan di ruang ini adalah festival (Femme Fest, Girl Fest, Zine Fest), vegan cafe, pembuatan soya, perpustakaan mini yang mengandungi pelbagai buku dan zine, penjualan dan pembuatan tshirt, penjualan risalah dan music alternatif, ruang untuk perjumpaan dan perbincangan, workshop tattoo tapping, Really Really Free Market (pasar percuma), movie screening percuma secara bulanan, gig dan sebagainya. Pada masa hadapan, terdapat banyak aktiviti yang telah dirancang seperti Food Not Bombs, ko-operasi basikal, infoshop (Pustaka Semesta) dan lain-lain.

Oleh itu, kami sangat mengalu-alukan bantuan dan sokongan dari anda untuk menderma sebanyak RM20 (atau lebih). Kami menjemput anda untuk turut serta menjalankan aktiviti di ruang ini dan menghulurkan bantuan untuk menyelamatkan ruang ini agar segala bentuk aktiviti alternatif dapat diteruskan di masa akan datang.

Setiap sumbangan boleh disalurkan ke akaun bank Ahmad Ariffudin bin Ab Rahman (MAYBANK 114086009975) atau hubungi 0127968504 / gudangnoisy@gmail.com.

DONATION NEEDED!

Gudang Noisy is a community center established by a group of friends upon realizing that there is a lack of space for young people to organize alternative activities in Malaysia. Unfortunately, Gudang Noisy is currently facing some financial problems to sustain the space as a community center and a place to throw gigs. The owner of the building has given us a month to settle all the outstanding rent which is now stands at RM 3,000. We have been facing a lot problem in terms of paying rent since we started operating here. This is a huge hindrance for Gudang Noisy as it has been actively organizing things of recent.

We have organized a number of events here at the space, including radical festivals (Femme Fest, Zine Fest), vegan cafe, DIY soy milk, silk screening, tattoo workshop (tapping), really really free market, monthly free screening, gigs, amongst many other things. Besides that, we also have a mini library here which has a range of books and zines, a space to conduct meetings and discussion, as well as other things. We have also planned a slew of activities for the future including Food not Bombs, a bicycle co-op, and an infoshop (Pustaka Semesta).

We would really appreciate it if you would be able to donate at least RM 20 (or more) to help us out in this time of need. And we would also like to invite you to participate in any future events to save Gudang Noisy so that there is a space for people to continue organizing alternative events.

All donations can be channeled to Ahmad Ariffudin bin Ab Rahman (MAYBANK 114086009975) or please contact us at 0127968504 / gudangnoisy@gmail.com.

CRYSIS RECORDS: available stuffs!

FOOD NOT BOMBS KL: calling for donations!

Hey there,

Food not bombs Kuala Lumpur (FNBKL) has been operating in Kuala Lumpur since 2000. Since then, we have been consistenly tabling food to the homefree, street folks as well as whoever who wants it every Sunday evening at Bukit Nanas, Kuala Lumpur.

A little bit on our politics. We believe there is enough food for everyone and there is no need for people to go hungry. People go hungry because the state and corporations are too invested in making money for themselves while they screw over other people. We believe if all those excessive amount of money which the state and corporations spend on arms and war are used instead for housing, health care, food, and all things which are being neglected by them, the world will be a much better place. (pardon my hippiness) Besides that, we also do not condone wastage of food.

We “recycle”, meaning we collect unwanted vegetables which are perfectly edible and whip them up into pretty good stuff and share it with people. We try to reduce consumption as much as we can. And yes, we only serve vegan food as it is both healthy and nonviolent.

Anyways, we are writing this email to request for donations. We are running low a few things and we hope you would be able to donate some of the things which we need and use for our weekly tabling.

rice – we cook at least 2 kg of rice every Sunday
cordial – we make drinks too
sugar – for the drink
oil – to cook the food
spices – to make our dishes delicious =)

Those are mainly the things that we really need. However, we will graciously accept whatever that you would like to donate to us. At the same time, we do not want you to rush out and go on this shopping spree at your nearest supermarket. Support your local grocer instead of some corporate supermarket. And you can also give stuff like canned food or spices which has been sitting in your kitchen cabinet for a long long time. Look in your kitchen first before going out to buy things. Instead of throwing them away, you can just donate it to us.

If you would like to donate any of the mentioned items above or other stuff, please send us an email at thilaga.sulathireh@gmail.com or please give us a call at 03 7955 0941 or 017 630 6795.

p/s: for the time being we cook at section 8, pj. we start cooking at 1 pm-ish. we later bring the food to bukit nanas at about 5.30. we start tabling the food at 6pm. please join us if you can.

thank you and have a nice day ahead! =)

RADICAL PUNKS NEVER DIES!

FROM: http://blackhole212.wordpress.com/

hi all!
blackhole212 will be organising a benefit show for an anarchist gathering in medan that will happen on the 3rd to the 6th of june.
all proceeds will go to helping anti-authoritarian locals in indonesia make it to the gathering. as some of them live very far from the event venue (it will be near the mountains in medan), and cannot afford transportation due to the intense poverty there, we are doing our part to try to send some money over to help as many people as we can make it.

the show will be on wednesday the 19th of may.

also, those interested in heading up for the event can also contact us and we’ll go over as a lioncitydiy/blackhole212 collective! it will a camping event, but for those who don’t have tents there will also be a hall to sleep in. there will be talks, discussion, workshops and a communal kitchen (!!!). so far, there are collectives from taiwan and philippines that have contacted the organizers and are heading over, so it would be a great opportunity to meet new people and make new friends in a borderless community.

we have been advised by the organisers not to post too much info on message boards/forums/chain mail (for obvious reasons), but those who want more info can contact us via email/phone, or directly to the organisers at antiotoritarian2010@gmail.com.

the event is still open to workshop/activity ideas, so we’re really excited to be a part of this!

also, for those of you who cannot make it, we also need sound people to take over the sound system for the week of 1st to the 6th of june @ blackhole. please contact us if you’d like to help out in that way! there’s still time to learn the ropes (it’s quite easy!) and get yourself more involved in our community space!

hope to her from you guys soon!!

xoxo

APA ITU EARTH HOUR?

INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY: why we celebrate on march 8th

Members of the Irish Women's Workers' Union on the steps of Liberty Hall, c. 1914. The Union was founded in 1911 [Photograph from the Irish National Archives]

There are a few ways in which International Women's Day can be approached. It can be ignored. This is what mostly happens in the mainstream media. Unlike Valentines Day and Mothers Day, cards aren't given and presents aren't bought. With no profit to be made out of it, the day is not exactly one that jumps out and grabs the attention.

International Women's Day is an expressly political day. In 1907 women sweatshop workers marched in New York and thus the first International Women's day was born. Often when women are celebrated it is because they are either cute (Valentine's Day) or caring (Mothers' Day).

There is nothing wrong with being cute or caring, but on Internationals Women's day we get to highlight those of us who are politically active, those who are fighting for a better world, those who know that there can be a better world. I don't know their names but I know I have linked arms with women at Shannon Airport protesting against the war. I've stood in front of bin lorries with women from the estate I live on. I have met women as we marched, leafleted, picketed and posters for the right to have an abortion on Irish soil.

There are many many ways in which life is difficult for women in Ireland, from our pay packets, to the fact that we get little support if we decide to have children and no support if we decide not to have children. We have to wait weeks (and sometimes months) for something as simple as the result of our smear tests. Like men we live in a country which can't provide housing, medical services, and security, basic human needs for all citizens. Yes there is a lot to be angry about and a lot to change.

Thankfully, many of us, like those women who marched in the cold 102 years ago, are not willing to make do with what we have been offered. International Women's day is a celebration of those women who make things better.
