History of Project Design
The conceptualization of this project is rooted after the September 11
tragedy in the United State. The idea was originated from the World Wall
for Peace organization in the US with an overwhelming need to protest
war, especially the War on Terrorism. As a citizen of Malaysia we are
deeply troubled by the US government’s actions in economic and foreign
policy. We know that we am not the only Malaysian who shares this feeling,
yet the voice of dissent has little place in world media and global consciousness.
Therefore, the construction of a peace wall in Multimedia University,
Cyberjaya, we believe, can draw attention to the issue and build better
community and solidarity not only between Malaysian and other global citizens,
but between all citizens of all war torn countries.
Funding and Sponsorship for the Project
This proposal is seeking for financial sponsorship from all individuals
and organizations dedicated to peace and global justice.
