新加坡国际原创漫画大赛

President of Malaysian Mandarin Comics Society

Roy Chan, aged 58, as an ardent enthusiast, started his career in comics together with two buddies in 1984.

Apart from contributing comics serials to the LIFE TV and Mingguan Tunas magazines, also has three solo productions to his credit. Roy left the comics scene to delve into industrial journalism, took up the post of a managing editor for a bilingual tyre magazine as well as test-driving newly launched cars in 1992.

Three years later, Roy joined a team of 9 in public-listing exercise for an engineering corporation. The exercise successfully made the company’s IPO to the KLSE second board in 1997, with a market capitalization of RM600m.

After the IPO stint, Roy left the corporate scene and went back to freelancing his initial dreams -comics and illustrations. He received a commendable contribution award from the Malaysian Mandarin Comics Society in its third awards ceremony. Roy went on to lead the comics society as the 4th President for MMCS in 2015. In 2015, he assisted the Penang Youth Development Corporation in drafting a proposal to set up a comics museum in Penang.

The establishment process took over two years of work, and Asia Comic Cultural Museum launched its grand opening in May 2016. Roy was also appointed a liaison consultant in Malaysia for the Taiwan Creative Expo 2018 and 2019, essentially bridging the cultural exchanges of intellectual expertise between both countries.

Founder of No Wall Co. Ltd (ノーウォール株式会社), Comic Artist

Hu Rong is the first China artist based in Japan and hails from Jiangsu Province, Rugao County.

At the tender age of 15, she was awarded the prestigious “10 Most Outstanding Youths in Jiangsu Province”.

Her art style is well-known to be versatile, expressed in ethereal and vivid watercolours with a tinge of Japanese influence.

As early as 1994, she founded “Hu Rong Comic Studio” in Beijing, with a total of 8 assistants. Then on 16th September 1996, she was awarded “Judges Choice” at the “East Asia Comic Summit” for her work – “A Chinese Ghost Story”, a historical moment as the first China artist to have made her name on the international stage. As such, she was recognized as the pioneer and successor of modernizing traditional Chinese comics style.

In November 1998, she was the first to visit Japan with a mangaka cultural visa status and from 2000 onwards, her works were continuously published in Japanese commercial magazines till now.

For 12 years, she dedicated herself to the studies of the Japan manga industry, seeking for an indepth understanding of the manga production process, work distribution and commercial ropes.

In the course of 2 years (2010 – 2012), she was appointed as a lecturer from Beijing Film Academy as well as the head editor of Posts and Telecom Press’s “Super Comic”. She once created the cultural wave for Chinese comics, where it not only supported the development of “Super Comic”, but also two magazines focused on black and white comics. She also nurtured many outstanding comic artist talents in the process.

In 2010, she also founded a comic studio focused on developing new generations of comic artist talents for the industry.

In 2015, she founded “No Wall Co. Ltd”, whose manifesto works towards creating a comic artists utopia free of boundaries. As such, she is strongly supportive of international cultural exchange between like-minded comic artists and the discovery and training of new gen comic artists.

In 2017, she committed herself to the incubation of Original Comic IP and cultivating new artists to better prepare them for their debuts. She has since launched commercial activities for the movement of Original Comic IP as well.
