On the 28th of July, he started uploading pictures into an album called mASEANa: Kuala Lumpur. mASEANa (modern ASEAN architecture) is a project that was started in 2015 and will go on until 2020. The aim of this project is to document modern architecture in south-east Asia and their history. It is also to preserve these buildings.

Under mASEANa, Weerapon had the chance to give a little lecture on architectural photography to some students. The workshop allowed them to enter buildings such as our parliament. He said that the modernism movement is definitely post-Merdeka and has colonial British influences.
