Zubir Said: a Man Made of Music by Perera, Loretta Marie, Written in August 2010 National Library Board, Singapore
ARTICLE Zubir Said: A Man Made of Music by Perera, Loretta Marie, written in August 2010 National Library Board, Singapore Driven by his love for music, Zubir Said’s work, headlined by Singapore’s national anthem Majulah Singapura, has become an important part of the nation’s history and culture. Despite rapid social change and development, his traditional yet modern works, underscored by a timeless sensibility, remain as relevant and evocative as they have always been. Born in Bukittinggi, Minangkabau in West Sumatra, Indonesia, on July 22, 1907, Zubir Said grew up under the care of his uncle, a musician, after the death of his mother when he was seven years old. He never had an interest in studies until a teacher introduced him to Solfa music, the teaching of notes sung to a syllable ( do, re, mi). This served as the starting point of what would become a lifelong love affair with music. Once regarded as “the most respected maestro in both practical and theoretical aspects of Malay music”, Zubir showed a strong inclination towards music from an early age, learning the flute in primary school, followed by the guitar and drums in middle school. Despite strong objections from his father, who wanted his eldest child to succeed him as village chieftain, he became a member of a keroncong group instead. While travelling through Sumatra with his group, a sailor friend told him of the “glittering lights, kopi susu (coffee with milk) and butter” of Singapore. He then made his way to Singapore in the hope of developing a career in music. -

MALAYSIAN MUSIC and SOCIAL COHESION: CONTEMPORARY RESPONSES to POPULAR PATRIOTIC SONGS from the 1950S – 1990S
JATI-Journal of Southeast Asian Studies, Volume 25(1), June 2020, 191-209 ISSN 1823-4127/e-ISSN 2600-8653 MALAYSIAN MUSIC AND SOCIAL COHESION: CONTEMPORARY RESPONSES TO POPULAR PATRIOTIC SONGS FROM THE 1950s – 1990s Shazlin A. Hamzah* & Adil Johan (* First author) Institute of Ethnic Studies (KITA) Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia ([email protected], [email protected]) Doi: https://doi.org/10.22452/jati.vol25no1.10 Abstract Upon its independence in 1957, Malaysia was in the process of becoming a modern nation and therefore required modern totems to bind together its diverse population. Malaysia’s postcolonial plural society would be brought under the imagined ‘nation-of-intent’ of the government of the day (Shamsul A. B., 2001). Music in the form of the national anthem and patriotic songs were and remained essential components of these totems; mobilised by the state to foster a sense of national cohesion and collective identity. These songs are popular and accepted by Malaysian citizens from diverse backgrounds as a part of their national identity, and such affinities are supported by the songs’ repeated broadcast and consumption on national radio, television and social media platforms. For this study, several focus group discussions (FGD) were conducted in Kuching, Kota Kinabalu and the Klang Valley. This research intends to observe and analyse whether selected popular patriotic songs in Malaysia, composed and written between the 1960s to 2000 could promote and harness a sense of collective identity and belonging amongst Malaysians. There exists an evident lacuna in the study of the responses and attitudes of Malaysians, specifically as music listeners and consumers of popular patriotic songs. -

Indigenous Education: the Malaysian Experience
REVITALIZING THE INDIGENOUS SEMAI ORANG ASLI LANGUAGE IN MALAYSIA Dr Alias Abd Ghani [email protected] Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia Abstract Much attention has been focused on the survival of indigenous language in recent years. Many experts on the area anticipate the demise of the majority of indigenous languages worldwide and have called on the need to address the loss of indigenous language. According to Reyhner, R (2007 ) many indigenous peoples of the world, lack what may be termed the effective right to save their languages and cultures i.e. access to the knowledge, strategies, and resources necessary to resist destruction of languages and cultures. This paper presents the findings of the initiatives made by the Semai Orang Asli community and the Ethnic Language Division, Curriculum Development Centre (CDC), Ministry of Education Malaysia in revitalizing the language through documentation and native language teaching in Semai schools throughout Malaysia. This is part of the proactive efforts made by the community by engaging themselves with relevant educational authority in safeguarding their language form endangerment. Keywords: Aslian language, indigenous minority (Orang Asli), language revitalization. 1.0 Introduction In the words of Rehyner (2007), language is irreplaceable cultural knowledge. It contains a significant part of the world’s knowledge and wisdom. When a language is lost, much of the knowledge that language represents is also gone. According to Krauss (2007) there are approximately six thousand languages still spoken by mankind, between twenty and fifty percent of the 6,000 are no longer spoken by children or will no longer be spoken by children by the end of this century. -
