Laughing Through Lockdown - How New York's Comedians Fought Back During The Covid Lockdowns

This is a film that we shot at the end of 2020 for another outlet about three ways that the comedy / arts community endured Covid lockdowns and restrictions. One strategy was to close down and move to a freer state. Another was to subvert the regulations not exactly comply with the overreach but not break any laws either. The third was to fight back against the mandates. #lockdown #covid19 #new...

Super Takumar Vintage Lens + Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k
zhlédnutí 10KPřed 5 lety
This is some test footage of a 60s-era Pentax Super Takumar 50mm 1:1.4 lens on a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4k. There was a little yellow tint to it that could be removed via a UV or black light but I kind of like it, as it gives the footage an additional vintage feel. However, I will say that everything shot with this lens requires a degree of color correction, as it sucks up the warm por...

Cat Beach: Malaysia's BEACH That's Just For Cats
A new city. In Korea. Without a subway system. That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard of. This city is a car-centric disaster. A modern monstrosity, not built to human scale.
India never do anything big except talk big Talk talk talk thats what they are good at
Malacca's population has minimum growth to support mega residential and industrial projects.
Whatever mega projects you can build will fail if attention is not paid to overhaul the road and commuting systems in the whole of Melaka. It's a gridlock.
Sadly not only be white elephant but become ghost city where goblins went rampage at night

KAJ such a small company invoveld in Mega project what's a surprised this project is so huge.
When the government changes hand like so frequently, doing big projects is a risk. Malaysian politics used to be stable long time ago and that was when development was most prosperous
Can you trust a man who had tatoo on his body and his ear pierce?
The Malay is the most destructive force in Malaysia. Allah is their henchman.
This is the folly of big egos.
Ridiculous.

I always love your films. The way you feel close to the people. Like the woman with the beautiful eyes and the tattoo of the eye on her high heart, making that dark drink that also goes with the eye thing. Really art. What was that drink?
ALL PROJECTS IN MALAYSIA ARE ABANDONED BECAUSE 99.9% ARE THE SAME SKIN IN MIND BRAIN ONLY STEAL, RASUAH, NOTHING ELSE SAME LIKE HSR OPEN REVIVE NEXT GOVERNMENT COME STOP ORDER THEN NEXT GOVERNMENT REVIVE BACK IT GOES ON LIKE THIS NO ENDING,LOW IQ MENTALITY,NO ECONOMY, NO INVESTMENT ONLY TALK BIG BUKAN MAIN,
She can tattoo me we're is she at
Don't mess with mega projects which will not benefitted the local peoples but rather give the control of the land to a foregin companies.
I heard that Kaj was allowed to resume the project. Anyone in Malacca can tell me if the contruction has restarted? Thanks.
Mahathir himself is not a melayu...and nortorious fucked up guy😂
The project has become a joke among locals. Just smoke and mirrors project.
Malaysia government is suck.
Malaysia PM wants more China projects, during his recent visit to China. No mention of White Elephant. By the way, Malaysian elephants are grey, mate. 😊
Failed attempt from China to bankrupt Malaysia and claim the ownership of the land😊
This is very sad. A long time ago - in the 80s some friends and I went to the Portuguese Settlement and we enjoyed ourselves. I believe it was San Pedro's Day and there was fireworks and dancing and it was so lively. Then I went again last year and it was like deserted - not on San Pedro's day but just the opposite of my first visit. I don't know why but I felt very sad. On another visit about 5 years ago a friend and I went to have dinner there and there was a lot of food and it was delicious. Again, compared to my latest trip, I did not see the stalls but just one place that sold Food and drinks. I believe it was called Monteiro's but I'm not sure. The people in the settlement were VERY FRIENDLY and ACCOODATING. I loved it there as it is like a little place where you could go to unwind. I went there in the afternoon so I don't know about the night life - if it is still bustling with people and food stalls especially during festivals. Isn't the Portuguese Settlement a U.N Heritage place ? If so, something should be done by the government to maintain the place but instead I saw an unsightly building - Lim Kok Wing University ! How on earth did that guy get the permit to build a University there ? That's the price the settlement pays for corruption. But what is the saddest part of it is this : Even Portuguese at high levels in the government have forgotten their roots and did not do anything to help. So insignificant in campus but so disgustingly arrogant when they are in a Ministry. I was talking to a fisherman and he and the people did not want talk about these Portuguese at high level government places - they were quite fed-up and learned that such people forget everything when they are high up - they are busy mingling with other high level people who are all chasing after titles. The people told me where that official lived and the house was still there ALONG WITH THE SIBLINGS. I definitely plan to drive to the settlement again soon. SO GENUINELY FRIENDLY AND HUMBLE - but sadly they become damn arrogant once they reach a certain position in some Ministry. Kacang lupakan kulit ? I detest such hypocrites ! I sincerely hope that the Portuguese Settlement will revert to its glory days - CHRIST the REDEEMER will help all of you my friends.
How come melaka reclaim land no protest like Penang South Island scale?
Anwar, stop your dealings with CCP. They are only using you people unless you are being fed by the CCP like Najib. CCP’s project does not use local contractors to built the projects. They give you their money and they will get it back by using Chinese contractors. Don’t you learn from other countries that have pull the plugged. CCP is international conman. Never trust them. Get them out of the country. CCP is fooling you. If you trust/believe what CCP says then you should believe that “shit” is ate-able.
Paid channel?
*This is the usual hack job by the usual suspects. Put this video into the trash can where it belongs!*
very interesting story.. no doubt somebody will revise this project at some point in time.. but this is nothing compare to the American proxy war in Palestine killing women and children by the tenths of thousand.. this is just another CIA run channel to dehumanise all Chinese no doubt..
It is not failed project but the failure of Malaysian government because of corruption and incompetency.
It’s failed because ccp 😊
To sum up … doing business with Malaysia Government is a risky business. Any political change .. your deal is gone. Flip flop like roti prata.
Create new Peranakans from China
The mistake is on your country side. Look at your neighbor. Their mega project funded by China is fine, there is no really big issue.
It's all a covid 19 case. During this period all projects were slow down that's all
Fake. This is misleading.
Next could be Penang South Island project.
Oh jeez… this is messed up
China and Malaysia have just announced an $80 billion dollar project to build the ports in Mellaca Straights.
You're being fed stale news and you need to improve your spelling

Well, your video didn't aged well at all! That's why I don't sub to Anti China channels like yours anymore cos all you do is spread hate and fake news
As of February 2022, the project has resumed the development of its first island, Projek Pembangunan Pulau Satu (PME1), after receiving approval from the State Government through an agreement signed on 23 February. [8] 😊
Malaysia have an overcapacity of ports? .. I have dealt with people in Port Klang, Tanjung Pelepas and Pasir Gudang, and they can barely cope with the present amount of cargo as it is. To put things into perspective, Singapore is in the process of their biggest port expansion. Talk about "overcapacity".
Tipu😮😮
Duplicating what former colonial masters did, no carving up land, boundaries & bring in foreigners hopefully...
This vid clip is a joke! 😂 this bogus journalist, Mr Wade is trying to link Malacca Gateway to China? I know for a fact that Malacca Gateway is a local project with numerous different investors. Mr Wade only managed to secretly tape the briefing from the lady CEO of Malacca Gateway. He did not show any evidence nor statement or photographs launching by China / Malaysia? Indicating that is part of the Belt & Road Project. Yes, the Malacca Gateway is a controversy project in Malaysia but has nothing to do with China. Now you see how these bogus journalist worked? Then the editor of this video clip spin the narrative to their liking. What do they know about projects apart for bit and pieces of news? 😂
Malaysia is land of dreamzzzzz.
China will further develop the port into a deep sea port for int'l shipping line to transit bypassing Singapore. Remember history, Melaka was once used as a stop over port for Arab & Chinese traders in the early days before Portuguese invasion. Singapore was only a swampy land with little fishing village.
You're not paying attention, the project was cancelled
@@NewmaticKe revival duhr!
@@u2ber888yes they revived the idea in Thailand…..bypass Malaysia and Singapore. But that’s destined to fail as well…..
I believe project is often screwed up by incoming politician in power.
China may be planning use it for military purpose. India also has a say in malacca strait, because its Andaman&Nicobar islands are very nearby. India has started building its naval base in Nicobar island. China's evil design will be thwarted.
Pile of bullshit
