KUALA LUMPUR: It was a “double joy” for freelance graphic designer Nor Emila Mohd Yusof when she won the public category for the Blog 4 FT contest for October and November.
Her cartoon-like illustrations depicting scenic views of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya, as well as an illustrated book on fun places to visit and things to do in Kuala Lumpur, impressed the judges.
“I was really surprised when I got a second call informing me that I had won again (for November) because there were many other blogs that were really good,’’ said the 40-year-old from Ampang.
Six-year-old Nadiah Hakim, who won the junior category for November, could not contain her excitement when she received her prize from Federal Territories and Urban Wellbeing Minister Raja Datuk Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin, who presented the prizes to the monthly winners for the Blog 4 FT contest in Putrajaya last night.
