Lefty has posted an entry of his STCC experience in IACAScW.(Inaugural Asian Comis Art Symposium come Workshop, probably the most constructive and helpful comic industry-based forum in Malaysia)

You can also read about what IACAScW moderator, Hafidz Mahpar's thought about the event as well as Rizal Solomon's article which appeared as a cover story in NST Life & Times on the 4th of July, 2008. Both are great reads.
