RealMalaysia is The Living History Project’s ongoing initiative to document everyday Malaysian life as it is lived, felt, and remembered — beyond headlines, milestones, and official narratives.
As a soft launch of the RealMalaysia project, we’re introducing the RealMalaysia 2025 Recap, a year-end campaign inviting Malaysians to pause, reflect, and leave a trace of who we are at this moment in time.
Between 20 December 2025 and 4 January 2026, we’re asking people to share their 2025 recap reels with us.
These submissions will form part of a growing public archive that captures the emotional, cultural, and social textures of contemporary Malaysia. Together, they become a living time capsule: intimate, diverse, and deeply human.
Let’s tell the story of Malaysia not just through the lens of history books, but through the hearts and voices of its people.
