Malaysia Architecture Week (MAW) Makes International Debut in Jakarta
JAKARTA – Organized by a collective of 23 Malaysian architectural firms, Malaysia Architecture Week (MAW) is holding its touring exhibition at KopiManyar, Jakarta, from April 28 to May 15. The exhibition allows visitors to engage deeply and intimately with the exhibits.

The Vision: Beyond Borders
MAW Jakarta is envisioned as a touring platform for the exchange of architectural ideas, marking a significant step in moving beyond national borders and placing Malaysian architecture within the broader Southeast Asian context. At its core, the exhibition reflects a grounded, outward-facing practice, covering themes such as: Rural Revitalization Adaptive Reuse Material Experimentation Future Urban Typologies Community-Driven Design

The Power of "Gotong-Royong" (Mutual Aid)
A standout feature of MAW Jakarta is its realization through the spirit of Gotong-royong. The project was crowdfunded by the 23 participating firms, who also contributed their time, resources, and expertise. This collaborative approach highlights a side of architecture rooted in shared goals rather than competition.

A Tribute to Heritage
The event draws inspiration from pioneering efforts in 1985, when architects such as David Teh, Ken Yeang, and the late Shaharun organized the "Houses: 7 KL Architects" exhibition in Tokyo, setting the precedent for Malaysian architecture engaging in global dialogue.

Key Figures and Curation
The exhibition was curated by five emerging Malaysian architects: Beh Sai Cze, Yong Leng Chee, Afi Jamalludin, Hedzril Jaafar, and Wong Lot Yer. The opening ceremony was officiated by Farzamie Sarkawi (Charge d’affaires of the Malaysian Embassy in Indonesia), Denny Setiawan (Ikatan Arsitek Indonesia), and architect Andra Matin.
