Oh, and Naim Daniel! I usually just listened to his songs, knowing he’s such a good singer and producer, but I had never seen him act before. And trust me, you’ll love his acting as much as I did. He’s so funny and natural in the way he delivers his lines. Even when the dialogues were long, fast, and packed with words, he never stumbled—it just flowed so smoothly, like butter.
I think this drama brought out a very clear message, touching on a serious issue that could happen in schools everywhere—not just in Malaysia but around the world. All those big and small concerns and problems were portrayed very clearly in this drama.
What I found the most comforting was the bond between Naim & Fakhri. These two brothers were so clear-minded and shared the same goal. Both boys are haunted by the trauma of a broken family.They fought so hard just to be KAPLA, because they knew they had to stop school bullying and put an end to the harmful traditions of KUDRAT, especially the High Council. So when the “Death of the High Council” finally happened, you could see their eyes filled with tears—a victory they had longed for. From then on, the students of KUDRAT no longer had to live in fear.The concept of toxic masculinity – a belief that men must be strong, dominant, and unemotional – was a notable theme in the storyline. Some scenes in the show spotlighted how the boys condoned an unhealthy culture of fighting, power, and dominance just because they believed participating meant they were strong men.The series showcased the importance of mental health and the need to address it from a young age.
I was especially moved by Episode 6, when Naim sacrificed so much to save and protect Danial, a Form 2 student. I cried my eyes out at that part—it was so touching, showing just how hard they tried to put an end to all the bullying.
Episode 8, why must it take someone’s sacrifice for them to truly realize the seriousness of the situation? The part where Ayam fell off just from saving Fakhri, I just can't! 😭😭😭
Kahar’s storyline in Projek: High Council is one of the most striking portrayals of how power and influence can corrupt even those who start with the best intentions. At first, he is introduced as a figure who seems strong, confident, and deeply rooted in the traditions of KUDRAT. To many, he looks like a leader, someone who has earned his place in the school hierarchy.
But as the story unfolds, we see that Kahar is also trapped—trapped by the very system that raised him up. His choices, often harsh and cruel, are not just a reflection of who he is as a person, but of the toxic cycle of bullying, violence, and toxic pride that the High Council enforces. Kahar becomes both a victim and a perpetrator, which makes his character layered and tragic rather than one-dimensional.
What makes Kahar’s arc impactful is the way it shows the cost of blind loyalty and the destructive nature of traditions that are never questioned. His downfall is painful to watch, but necessary for the message of the drama: no matter how strong you think you are, if you uphold injustice, you will eventually be broken by it.
Kahar’s story leaves us with an important reflection: in systems built on fear and violence, even those at the top are not truly free.
I really think Kahar deserves a second chance. Even though I hated him from the very beginning, by the time it reached the episode with the fights between batches—when Ayam was severely injured—you could clearly see that Kahar was scared and full of regret for everything that had happened. That was the moment when I started to stop hating him and instead began to feel pity for him. It was heartbreaking to watch him suffer under such enormous pressure.
In the episode where Naim was unconscious after being brutally beaten by Fakhri, it was Kahar who immediately stepped in, stopped Fakhri, and saved Naim. That moment showed me that he wasn’t truly bad—he was just pressured by his father and brothers.
What touched me even more was when he decided to reveal the truth about the darkness inside KUDRAT. He admitted that because he wasn’t a smart student, nobody ever paid attention to him. But as Kapla, everyone respected him, feared him, and finally noticed him. I could totally understand how much he craved attention from others. Sadly, he thought bullying was the most effective way to achieve it—but that mindset was so wrong.
And the part where he stood together with the whole student body, led by Naim and Fakhri, and swore the oath—when he faced his father and read it aloud with tears in his eyes—that moment truly moved me.
Episode 9, this scene where Naim confronted his dad, or rather poured out all the pain he had been carrying inside, questioned him like he was a stranger, and begged for the love and understanding he never truly received, completely broke me. Nadhir Nasar, you did a really great job in this, like seriously, all those emotions. 😭😭😭
