Love FM 76.1 "Feel The World" is an international program that on-aired on every Sunday evening from 7pm to 9pm, for foreigners who lives in Fukuoka, and also for Japanese who are interested in foreign countries. “How can Fukuoka be an international city?”  “How could make foreigners live more convenient and comfortable in Fukuoka?” This program has a discussion section named "Words Around The World" inviting foreigners who live in Fukuoka to the studio and make a live interview. The topic is mainly about the view of foreigners on foreign country and Fukuoka. There are always many discoveries and culture shocks be highlighted during the 20 minutes interview. . DJ Rhea is a main host and each time with a foreigner DJ who is from France, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Peru and Philippines. The program enables foreigners and local Japanese to understand each others more through the exchange of perspectives and expression of feeling.

On 4th December 2011, I had been invited to the studio for interview. The interview was conducted in smooth and relaxing way. Although i could choose to speak in either Japanese of English, i decided to try my best in Japanese considering most of the audiences might understand the language better compared to English. The contents were circled on when, why and how i came to start painting, my solo art exhibitions in Fukuoka and the response of people here towards it,  my favorite artists, the relationship between my study (Town & Regional Planning) in university and art career or artworks, my life and experience as a foreigner living in Fukuoka in terms of  communication problems, culture shock and so on besides a brief introduction of homeland, Malaysia.
