Kod 016 : Confessions of an Old Boy - The Dato' Hamid Adventures





Written by Kam Raslan, a writer and director, working in film, TV and theatre in Malaysia.

You'll never meet anyone quite like Dato' Hamid, but you'll know him.


Synopsis :
Dato' Hamid - The Old boy and civil servant who's been everywhere and seen it all (even though he never wanted to). Here he 'spills the bean' on his adventures dating back to the 1940s from Kuala Lumpur to Monte Carlo, Los Angeles to Algiers, London to Temerloh Rest House and much more. Along the way, Dato' Hamid tussles with a beautiful seductress-cum-diamond thief; is corrupted by a ruthlessly ambitious banker; and helps solve the murder of billionaire businessman. And all the time he wishes he were back at home tending his orchids and nursing his favourite cognac.

Shameless, exciting and funny, Dato' Hamid's life and adventures chart the financial, political and amorous relationships that have made Malaysia what it is today.

Price : RM 20
