While en route to the Western Ocean between 1405 and 1433, a fleet led by an envoy of the Ming dynasty, Admiral Cheng Ho, visited several times the Malacca Sultanate, which was centred in the modern-day state of Malacca, Malaysia. As a result, some Chinese chose to stay back in Malacca and married the locals.

  • Heritage Street and Contemporary Use of Old Buildings in Johor
    Heritage Street and Contemporary Use of Old Buildings in Johor Wan Hashimah Wan Ismail Department of Architecture, Faculty of Built Environment, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Malaysia [email protected] Abstract This paper concerns the use of the buildings along a heritage street in Johor Bahru city centre in Malaysia. The fabrics of Johor Bahru city are in the phase of changing, similar to the other cities in the world. Parts of the city were already torn down and replaced by new buildings to meet the demands of the modern society. Some sections of the city were accepted as heritage area by the local authority. This includes a street known as Tan Hiok Nee Street. Both sides of the street are lined partly with rows of shop houses built in the early 20th century. A preliminary study on the street indicated that it was not popular to the general public during the day time. It is often emphasized by scholars that the current and future uses of the old buildings are crucial to their survival. The usefulness of the existing buildings along the street was thus questionable. A research was then conducted to examine the current situation of the street especially in the use and the condition of the buildings. The intention was also to probe on the reasons why the street was not lively. The data was collected from site observation, literature review and interview of the tenants, owners as well as visitors. The analysis was based on these data from which the conclusions were drawn. It was found that part of the street was rather quiet with some of the shops hardly survived to meet ends.

  • SEMENANJUNG TANAH MELAYU 2 Chedet.Co.Cc March 10, 2011 1
    SEMENANJUNG TANAH MELAYU 2 chedet.co.cc March 10, 2011 1. Someone asked what about the "Orang Asli" literally the "Original People". Weren't they in the peninsular before the Malays? 2. They could be. So are the Red Indians, the Maoris, the aborigines of Australia, the many tribal people in many countries of the world. 3. If we consider that the Orang Asli have more rights to claim Malaysia as their own then we should acknowledge and respect the rights of the Red Indians, the Maoris, the Australian aborigines and all the other aborigines to be given back the land we now call America, Australia, New Zealand etc. 4. Perhaps in recognition of their rights, they are now not so ill-treated and killed as they were when the Europeans seized their lands. But this is not the same as declaring that the countries belong to the people originally found there. 5. In Latin America there were native, indigenous or Orang Asli governments when the Europeans arrived. The Aztecs, the Mayas, the Incas had recognisable states. But the Spaniards and the Portuguese conquered their lands and set up new States and Governments. The world have recognised these states. 6. In Malaysia the Orang Asli are as much citizens of the country as are the people of other races. They had never set up their own states and governments. 7. When the Europeans came, the governments and the states they had to deal with were Malay. All treaties were made with the Malay Governments. Even the Japanese recognised the existence of these Malay States when they drove the British out of the peninsular.
