The Chinese puppet master who devoted his life to keep wayang kulit alive

Mr Eyo Hock Seng is a master of shadow puppetry. The 71-year-old is believed to be the only Chinese puppet master still practising wayang kulit in Malaysia. His passion for the art form began in childhood, and he is now teaching his grandson to carry on the centuries-old tradition.
