KUALA LUMPUR: The Japanese version of Lat's Kampung Boy comic won second place in Japan's Gaiman Award for the overseas comic category.

According to a statement, the comic by Datuk Mohd Nor Khalid, popularly known as Lat, topped 14 other comics from several countries including Britain, Spain, China and South Korea.

According to the results announced on the websitewww.gaiman.jp Saturday, Hawkeye: My Life as a Weapon published in the United States by Marvel Comics was accorded first place, while third place went to Jolies Ténèbres from France.

"Generally, overseas readers love reading Kampung Boy and choose the book because it portrays the culture, harmony and unity of Malaysian society through the eyes of a local village boy.

"The illustrations of real characters in a village setting draw readers close to the characters and make the comic book an easy read," the statement said.

The Japanese version of Kampung Boy was translated by Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia's Japanese language lecturer, Hieda Natsue, edited by Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS) lecturer Assoc Prof Soda Naoki, and jointly published by the Malaysian Institute of Translation and Books and Tokyos TUFS Press.

Launched at the Tokyo International Book Fair in July, it is also used as a teaching aid for Southeast Asian Studies at TUFS because of its uniqueness.

Lat's works have been translated and published in 12 foreign languages including English, Arabic, Mandarin, Tamil, French, German, Indonesian and Korean. - Bernama

Satu pencapaian yg boleh dibanggakan...

Personally aku lebih suka Lots of Lat....yang aku ingat karektor TS Mubin Shepard kelakar....ada sorang lelaki melayu yg perasan urban nak beli 'prawn paste', apek tua tu tak paham.....bbrp kali budak melayu tu cakap 'prawn paste...prawn paste', garu kepala apek tu sehingga Mubin Shepard mencelah, dia kata, "Belacan"......barulah apek tu paham... . Satu sindirin tajam kpd org perasan urban...ha..ha..

Bagi budak skolah rendah RM20 memang mahal le bagi aku.
Mungkin ko anak orang senang x dela mahal sangat.
Abah aku bagi warning siap2, nak beli komik sila guna duit sendiri.
Selain Lat, aku suka komik Ujang.
Awal taun ni kiteorg pi mancing kat Tasik Kenyir sewa boathouse ngan Ujang.
Ade tanye gak die kenapa tak melukis?
Dia cakap mane boleh lukis dah sejak Din Beramboi curik karya "Ujang" dia.
