After facing injustice and inequality, a small group of women came together to say enough is enough. Because of them, Malaysia is now taking the lead in Muslim nations 'women's rights'. Over a few delicious meals, David meets several inspiring female activists who share their experiences with sexism and discrimination, and what it is like to live as a Muslim woman in Malaysia.
After falling in love with the sights, smells and of course flavours of Southeast Asia in his many travels through the region, David Rocco has decided to see what this tropical wonderland has in store for him. Travelling to Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore, David learns traditional dishes and samples the street food he’s heard about from foodies all over the world. Seeing first-hand the unique cultures thriving in rural villages and the bustling cosmopolitan cities, David is inspired to share with the world the stories of the people he meets along the way.
