Shaun Tan reading Tan Lay Fern's mind live on air and her subsequent reaction on the set of TV3's "Face to Face".

Shaun was later invited back to "Face to Face" by popular demand, and this time he managed to read the mind of the host of the programme, Kelvin Ong, using a different presentation. By request, Shaun again demonstrated how he bent spoons using just his mind, with remote bending occurring yet again!

Shaun's second appearance on "Malaysia Hari lni" occurred during the back-to-back celebration of Hari Raya and Chinese New Year in 1997. This time, Shaun featured a new effect in line with the double celebration, teleporting a five dollar bill from the sealed envelope in his hands to the empty sealed envelope in the host's hands!
