Indonesia, Malaysia to intensify co-op in Malacca Strait
2008-03-18 06:05:00 The Indonesian navy and its Malaysian counterpart have agreed to increase cooperation in maintaining security in the Malacca Strait, Antara news agency reported on Tuesday. The agreement was reached during a meeting between Indonesian Navy Chief of Staff Admiral Sumardjono and his Malaysian counterpart Admiral Tan Sri Ramlan Mohamed Ali at the Indonesian Navy's Headquarters in Cilangkap, East Jakarta, on Monday. "We hope that all forms of cooperation that had been established so far between the two navies would be stepped up in the future," Admiral Mohamed Ali said after the signing of the agreement. The Malacca strait is one of the world's busiest sea and trade lanes as it links West Asia and East Asia. At least 50,000 cargo ships use the strait every year. The 800-km-long strait can be sailed through in 12 hours, which is a much shorter period than the 24 hours needed to pass through the Sunda Strait (1,630 km) or the 70 hours required to navigate the Lombok Strait (2,78...

Chinese New Year At Jonker Walk
2008-02-10 10:03:00 Jonker Walk is the glittering jewel of the historical town of Malacca. You should go to Jonker Walk when you are visiting Malacca. Otherwise, it's just like leaving a jewelry shop with empty hands.Jonker Walk was decorated with numerous of lanterns during Chinese New Year. Visitors started flocking to Jong Walk when the sun began to set. The night of Jonker Walk bustled until the excited crowd left Jonker Walk at midnight.Before becoming a popular tourist attraction, Jonker Walk is a narrow street with a few antique shops. It's totally different now. Jonker Walk is a busy street during daytime. Tourists stroll along the pedestrian walkway in front of the shops. Jonker Walk turns into a bustling street at night from Friday to Sunday. Hopefully it would be seven nights a week in future.The stuffs that available at Jonker Walk range from local delicacy, souvenirs to antiques. If you are in Malacca, remember to witness yourself the night fever of Jonker Walk.
Shopping Rush
2008-02-05 18:28:00 A large number of shoppers flock to most of the shopping malls in town these few days. Shopping rush is just like hot cake. You can see how the shopping rush was from the above video clip. It was recorded last Saturday. This hyper mart opens from 8 am to 11 pm on Monday to Thursday and from 8 am to 12 midnight on Friday to Sunday during this festive fever.I went to this hyper mart twice to shop for Chinese New Year stuffs.. I bought a full trolley of food, cookies and snacks for each trip and spent few hundreds ringgit.Wang Xiao Er guo nian, yi nian bu ru yi nian. Nian nian nan guo, nian nian guo. These two sentences are in Chinese. Wang Xiao Er was a poor man. He became poorer year by year. However, he had to celebrate Chinese New Year no matter how poor he was. This means that Chinese New Year is a special festival to Chinese. I am as poor as Wang Xiao Er and have to shop for celebrating Chinese New Year too.

Indonesian boat sinks in Malacca strait
2007-12-26 03:15:00 RESCUE workers combed waters off western Indonesia after a small boat sank in stormy seas, leaving at least two passengers dead and seven others missing, police said on Tuesday. 'The captain could not control the boat because of the high waves, and it eventually capsized in the Malacca Strait,' said Agus Sarjito, a police chief on nearby Sumatra island. The motorised, wooden ship was traveling between two coastal villages in Riau province on Monday when the accident occurred, he said, adding almost all the passengers on board were women and children. Strong winds and 3-metre waves forced rescuers to briefly suspend search operations on Tuesday, Mr Agus said. Indonesia News Blog: http://indosnesos.blogspot.com-

2007-12-25 10:12:00 MALACCA: It was a slow process but the revolving top of the Taming Sari tower in Banda Hilir was finally put in place yesterday. The RM23mil, 116m-high tower, now at its makeshift location, would be moved to its permanent location 15m away in a few days’ time. The state’s latest tourist attraction, is expected to be opened in February. The tower, named after Hang Tuah’s mythical kris, and built using Swiss technology, will be the first tower in the country to have a fully revolving structure. It can accommodate up to 80 people at one time. The revolving tower, some 100m above ground, will make a complete circle in five minutes. There is also a restaurant, convenience store and a souvenir shop on the ground floor. The tower was to be built near the Parameswara Jetty but work stopped when an ancient Portuguese wall was discovered at the site near the Stadthuys. A ground-probing radar survey was undertaken to ensure that there were no historical artefacts or cons...

First Chinese Bible from Malacca
2007-10-02 01:53:00 The 200th anniversary of the arrival in China of the first Protestant missionary, Robert Morrison, who contributed much to western knowledge of Chinese, is being marked by a display in the Bodleian Library, Oxford. Robert Morrison (1782–1834, right in photo), from Northumbria in northern England, arrived in the port of Canton on 7 September 1807, commissioned by the new London Missionary Society first to learn Chinese, and then to make a Chinese translation of the Bible. Despite Qing law preventing foreigners from learning Chinese, the East India Company policy excluding missionaries, and opposition from Portuguese Catholics who were already working in the country, Morrison mastered the language with help from faithful Chinese assistants. In 1809 he became official interpreter for the East India Company alongside his mentor, Sir George Staunton (1781–1859), the only other Englishman who knew Chinese at the time. Though often critical of the Company and of British governmen...

2007-09-08 04:50:00 I only realized it today and it seems that some Malaysian Malays (Melayu) have a different interpretation on the incident involving piggies and their pig farmers over in Malacca.Take a look at this letter written by Luqmanul Hakim and published by HarakahDaily yesterday. Let me quote his whole letter here today. He has written, quote:?Tersentak saya baca laporan AFP, TPM Najib Tun Razak berkata kerajaan akan guna pendekatan aman selesai isu penternakan (haram) babi di Dun Linggi dan Tanjung Bidara, Melaka.
