Other than architecture history and building defects, the interior scheme of building, the decorations, the building's form and space interior layout are also some significant aspects that need to be analysed in building conservation study. In current practice, the change of use of any heritage building will need approval from the National Heritage Department (NHD). The report of history and building condition is the one of the main documents needed to be submitted for the approval process. The main objective of this research is to analyse the buildings based on the original materials, form, function, decoration, and layout. The methods used for this research include in-depth building investigation, analysis, and interpretation; backed up by measured drawing and historical assessment. The analysis involved the mapping of original and existing spaces and then analysed the unique characters of the interior using a series of photos categorised based on time or dates of the photos. From this analysis, the authenticity of the space can be identified and recommendations on better usage of spaces of these historic buildings can be proposed to the National Heritage Department.

Dengan keluasan 949.86 km persegi Ia ditadbir oleh dua agensi kerajaan iaitu Pejabat Daerah dan Tanah Slim River dan Majlis Daerah Tanjong Malim (MDTM). Kedua-dua institusi ini adalah merupakan nadi dan penghubung langsung antara Kerajaan dengan orangramai. Keberkesanan pentadbiran kedua-dua institusi ini melambangkan imej pentadbiran Kerajaan samada baik atau buruk. Majlis Daerah Tanjong Malim merupakan Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan bagi Daerah Kecil Slim River/Tanjong Malim ini. Sebagai Pihak Berkuasa Tempatan yang dikenali sebagai kerajaan ketiga iaitu yang paling hampir dengan rakyat sudah tentu hasrat kerajaan memerintah agar rakyat didahulukan pencapaian diutamakan diberi penekanan walaupun “pelbagai pihak” sedia maklum kekurangan dan kekangan yang ada pada pentadbir Pintu Masuk Utama selatan negeri Perak ini. Selama tiga dekad, pentadbir ini sedikit sangat dibantu untuk memakmurkan Pintu Masuk Utama Negeri Perak. Secara tidak langsung mengambarkan Perak seadanya walaupun tiga dekad yang telah berlalu itu begitu ramai yang ditauliahkan pangkat “Laksamana” dipersada pemerintahan Negara namun amat sedikit pula yang berbakti kepada Negeri tumpah darahnya. Negeri Perak hingga ke hari ini dan bandar-bandar pentingnya terus secara halus dilupa dan seolah-olah dipinggirkan. Walaupun suatu ketika dahulu negeri Perak pernah menjadi “Juara” dan “Big Brother” kerana kekayaan hasil buminya dan pemurah para pemimpinnya. Kini ia tinggal kenangan. Tanah yang dulunya kaya dengan Bijih Timah kini tinggal kolam-kolam yang kebanyakannya amat terhad penggunaannya.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

The convent, established in 1854 in central Singapore, is now the ‗premier lifestyle destination‘, CHIJMES. I show that the Sisters were early providers of social services and girls‘ education, with an orphanage, women‘s refuge and schools for girls. They survived the turbulent years of the Japanese Occupation of Singapore and adapted to the priorities of the new government after independence, expanding to become the largest cloistered convent in Southeast Asia.

    INTI JOURNAL | eISSN:2600-7320 Vol.2020:062 DESTINATION IMAGE, HYPERREALITY, UNREAL IMAGE THROUGH FILMS. A CASE STUDY OF THE FILM CRAZY RICH ASIANS 1 Sriganeshvarun Nagaraj, 2Anil Aaron Selvaram 1,2INTI International University, Malaysia [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Crazy Rich Asians was one on the biggest hypes of cinema, from the Asian community and worldwide. It had an even bigger impact for Malaysians as Singapore was a stone throw away from Malaysia. The movie was a huge success within the Asian community, box office forking in international gross of $239 million, from just $30 million production budget. In October 2018, it was crowned the highest-grossing genre of romantic comedy from the last decade. However, the movie portrayal of Singapore was but a mere hyperreality and unreal image. Malaysia was a huge part of the film and was not given the credit it was due. The data was gathered using qualitative research method. In-depth interviews conducted with the sample, which were nine locals and 2 internationals selected based on criterion sampling. The data gathered was analysed based on 5 main themes, Tourism of Malaysia, portrayal of Malaysia, emotions of viewers, misrepresentation, and the awareness of viewers. Based on the data gathered locals and internationals viewers of the film feel negatively towards Crazy Rich Asians because of the potential that it could have on the Tourism of Malaysia. The respondent felt that the director could have given Malaysia its due credit rather than in the end credits. Keywords Film, Unreal Image, Destination Image, Misrepresentation, Hyperreality, Case Study Introduction From the Cinema to the home television, films had always played an impact on the viewers perception of how they see the world.

  • The Design of Mosques As Community Development Centers from the Perspective of the Sunna and Wright’S Organic Architecture
    THE DESIGN OF MOSQUES AS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CENTERS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE SUNNA AND WRIGHT’S ORGANIC ARCHITECTURE Mohamad Tajuddin Mohamad Rasdi Department of Architecture, Faculty of Built Environment, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Johor Bahru, Malaysia e-mail: [email protected] Nangkula Utaberta Department of Architecture, Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia e-mail:[email protected] Abstract The main purpose of this paper is to present an alternative approach to mosque design with particular reference to the context of Malaysia and the Malay World or the Nusantara. The paper contains four main parts. The first part examines the problem of mosque architectural interpretation from the perspective of Western architectural historiography. The main problems highlighted are those which pertain to the idea of ‘architecture’, ‘religious architecture’, relevance of the body of knowledge known as the ‘Hadith’ and lastly the specific historical-political agenda of some traditional mosques. The second part of the paper expounds briefly a reinterpretation of the hadith in arguing that the mosque approaches more as a community development complex than that as a mere house of rituals. The third part of the paper examines Wright’s Organic Architecture with specific reference to the design of the Unity Church and a few other buildings as containing some important lessons of mosque designs from the perspective of the Sunnah. The final part of the paper uses the principles discussed to criticize the Putra Mosque and the Masjid Negara. Keywords: Sunna, Organic Architecture, mosque design, Frank Lloyd Wright Abstrak Kajian ini berupaya untuk menghadirkan pendekatan alternatif terhadap perancangan masjid dengan referensi kontekstual dari Malaysia atau Nusantara.
