Zulkiflee Ulhaque, aka “Zunar”

CRNI’s 2011 Award for Courage in Editorial Cartooning was given to Malaysian cartoonist Zulkiflee Ulhaque, better known as “Zunar”.
Zunar endured 10 years of constant harassment and censorship by the state for cartoons critical of senior government officials. The Malaysian government has seized Zunar’s books and magazines, which also feature work by other cartoonists. The factories producing his titles have been raided and vendors have been warned not to sell his titles. Zunar has been detained and threatened with a charge of sedition. He has fought back by initiating legal challenges to his detention and to the seizing of his titles. Learn more about Zunar and his struggle in the Oceania/East Asia section of our Art to Die For collection.  [full story]
