The biggest Thaipusam festival is held annually at Batu Caves, Selangor and has become one of Malaysia key tourism attraction with hundreds of thousands devotees, tourist and visitors flocking the compound of Batu Caves Lord Murugan Temple to perform or watch the colorful and exotic Hindu religious processions.

The 272 steps to the hilltop temple and the 42.7m high Lord Murugan statue. Batu Caves before and during Thaipusam.

According to Hindu lore, Thaipusam is dedicated to hindu god Murugan, the son of Shiva and Parvati, to commemorate the occurrence when Murugan was presented a mystical lance by goddess Parvati to combat and vanquish the demon army of Tarakasura. Murugan came out as winner and was then celebrated in the victory of good over evil.

Although several Hindu shrines exist in Batu Caves, construction of a 42.7 meter high statue of Lord Murugan was completed in January 2006 making it the most dominant feature in the temple compound. In Batu Caves, devotees need to climb 272 steps to reach the temple inside the cave on the hilltop to complete the Thaipusam pilgrimage.

The first Batu Caves Thaipusam pilgrimage is believed to be in 1892 by early Tamils who migrated to colonial Malaya. Two of the first devotees made the difficult track up the ancient limestone hill and planted the `vel’ in the cave that houses a temple dedicated to Lord Murugan. The vel, made of metal and shaped like a lance, symbolizes Murugan who is also known as Velan.

On the eve of Thaipusam, a motorized five-ton silver-chariot bearing Lord Murugan’s image escorted by thousands of pilgrims leaves the Sri Mahamariaman (another name for Parvathi) temple in downtown Kuala Lumpur, on a 15-kilometre walk to Batu Caves.

At Batu Caves, devotees bring fruit and lower offerings usually in yellow or orange adorning dress in same color, the color most favored by Lord Murugan. During the procession, devotees bring milk, water, along with fruits and floral tributes on Kavadis – decorated with feathers of peacock.

Extraordinarily, many devotees torture their bodies with body piercing using hook, skewers and small lances called ‘vel’. These hooks are then tied to strings for pulling chariots or other heavy objects during the procession. Many others pierce their tongue and cheek to impede speech and thereby attain full concentration on the Lord. Most devotees enter into a trance during such piercing due to the incessant drumming and chanting of “vel vel shakti vel.”

This video clip is rare, but the situation is not. This fight is between two Chinese. The same incident would possibly repeated if it involves a Malay vs. another Malay or Indian vs. Indian, but the probability for it to happen would really be unlikely should this 2 man are from different races.

Watch out how one of the fighters threw away the wooden bat used to hit the other fellow across the street. This guy knew exactly what he was doing. He could be charged for assaulting the other guy should the police got their hand on this evidence. Notice any damage to the car?

Somehing is very wrong with Kelantan keeper. Should one asked if money got anything to do with it?

Riot and police truck burning in April 2009

It is known the Kelantanese are hardcore fanatics when it comes to soccer, and some are proud hooligans.

It is known Kelantan neighbors Thailand and supplies of heavy firecracker are easily available.

It is known Kelantanese do not accept losing at soccer, especially when caused by stupid mistake.

Lesson not learnt. The Kelantan fans need to learn anger management, the policing authority need to tighten security checks (firecrackers are illegal in Malaysia) and the players need not to play stupidly. Anyone please do something!

This is not Muniappan, but a Malaysian Indian nevertheless

One day a tourist from Pike County, USA named Bob has just arrived in Malaysia for a short summer vacation. Anxious to know what Malaysia is all about, he decided to chart a taxi for a short tour in KL before checking-in to the hotel.

The name of the taxi driver that day is Muniappan,  an army retiree. As all other proud Malaysian, Muniappan want to impress Bob with Malaysia rapid development and decided to show the top few landmarks in Kuala Lumpur.

As they arrived at Dayabumi, Muniappan entered his tourist guide mode and started to explaine “Mr. Bob, here we are at Dayabumi, one of Malaysia prominent landmark. This building was completed in 1984 and the first to use all out white marbles finishes”. “Oh, really? interesting! How long they took to complete it?” asked Bob. Muniappan hesitates, but being a proud citizen he didn’t want to be seen as ignorant, so he bluffed,” I heard someone said 11 months”. Amazed by the answer, but reluctant to be seen as so, John replied, “Oh we got building like this back in the States, using the latest in construction technology it would take only took us not more than 7 months”.

After that, Muniappan brings Bob to KL Tower. “On our right side is Menara Kuala Lumpur, currently the fourth highest tower structure in the World, but when it was first completed,it ranked no. 1″. “How long was the construction period?”, asked Bob. Trying to outwit Bob this time, Muniappan answers,”exactly 6 months sir!”. “That’s like forever, the Chicago Sears Tower only took 4 and a half months, but that was like in 1932″, bragged Bob.

So this time Muniappan heads straight to Petronas Twin Towers, but upon arriving he purposedly shut his mouth. Amazed by the elegant architecture as he looked from the window, Bob asked,”So what is this twin building here?”

Muniappan casually replies, “…err I don’t know sir. IT WASN’T HERE WHEN I PASSED THROUGH YESTERDAY!”

Bob was then as silent as a dead corpes until they arrived at his hotel.

A top minister recently slammed Malaysia's taxi drivers, saying they were more of a problem for the tourism industry than the nation's notoriously filthy toilets

Is this the real Pygmy elephant?

The origins of the pygmy elephants, found in a range extending from the north-east into the Heart of Borneo, have long been shrouded in mystery. Their looks and behaviour differ from other Asian elephants and scientists have questioned why they never dispersed to other parts of the island.

But a new paper published today supports a long-held local belief that the elephants were brought to Borneo centuries ago by the Sultan of Sulu, now in the Philippines, and later abandoned in the jungle. The Sulu elephants, in turn, are thought to have originated in Java.

Javan elephants became extinct some time in the period after Europeans arrived in South-East Asia. Elephants on Sulu, never considered native to the island, were hunted out in the 1800s.

A family of Bornean Pygmy Elephant

“Elephants were shipped from place to place across Asia many hundreds of years ago, usually as gifts between rulers,” said Mr Shim Phyau Soon, a retired Malaysian forester whose ideas on the origins of the elephants partly inspired the current research. “It’s exciting to consider that the forest-dwelling Borneo elephants may be the last vestiges of a subspecies that went extinct on its native Java Island, in Indonesia, centuries ago.”

If the Borneo pygmy elephants are in fact elephants from Java, an island more than 1,200 km (800 miles) south of their current range, it could be the first known elephant translocation in history that has survived to modern times, providing scientists with critical data from a centuries-long experiment.

Scientists solved part of the mystery in 2003, when DNA testing by Columbia University and WWF ruled out the possibility that the Borneo elephants were from Sumatra or mainland Asia, where the other Asian subspecies are found, leaving either Borneo or Java as the most probable source.

Radio-collaring Pygmy elephants in Sabah, Borneo (June 2005)

The new paper, “Origins of the Elephants Elephas Maximus L. of Borneo,” published in this month’s Sarawak Museum Journal shows that there is no archaeological evidence of a long-term elephant presence on Borneo.

“Just one fertile female and one fertile male elephant, if left undisturbed in enough good habitat, could in theory end up as a population of 2,000 elephants within less than 300 years,” said Junaidi Payne of WWF, one of the paper’s co-authors. “And that may be what happened in practice here.”

There are perhaps just 1,000 of the elephants in the wild, mostly in the Malaysian state of Sabah. WWF satellite tracking has shown they prefer the same lowland habitat that is being increasingly cleared for timber rubber and palm oil plantations. Their possible origins in Java make them even more a conservation priority.

“If they came from Java, this fascinating story demonstrates the value of efforts to save even small populations of certain species, often thought to be doomed,” said Dr Christy Williams, coordinator of WWF’s Asian elephant and rhino programme. “It gives us the courage to propose such undertakings with the small remaining populations of critically endangered Sumatran rhinos and Javan rhinos, by translocating a few to better habitats to increase their numbers. It has worked for Africa’s southern white rhinos and Indian rhinos, and now we have seen it may have worked for the Javan elephant, too.”

Important Facts
* Borneo pygmy elephants are smaller than mainland Asian elephants. The males may only grow to less than 2.5 meters, while mainland Asian elephants grow up to 3 meters. They also have babyish faces, larger ears, longer tails that reach almost to the ground and are more rotund. These elephants are also less aggressive than other Asian elephants.The scientific name is Elephas maximus and they are sometimes refered to as Elephas maximus borneensis, although they have not been officially determined to be a separate subspecies from mainland Asian elephants.
* The elephants are found primarily in the state of Sabah in Borneo Malaysia, with a few individuals having a part of their home range across the border in East Kalimantan, Indonesia.
* Large areas of Borneo’s forest are being rapidly cleared and replaced with tree plantations for rubber, palm oil and timber production and satellite tracking has found that the pygmy elephants prefer the same flat, lowland forest as commercial industries do, leading to competition for habitat.

Naked-Malaysian: If an extinct Javan elephant sub-species can even be found in Malaysia, why the necessity to accuse another country for commiting cultures theft? Many Indonesian ethnics also migrated to Malaysia in ancient times. To justify and preserve the same sentiment would require another accusation of Malaysia’s ‘claiming‘  the Bornean Pygmy elephants.

List of Pakatan Rakyat's missing MPs during 2010 Budget voting session

After 26 days debating Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Abdul Razak 2010 Budget, some of the Pakatan Rakyat MPs decided it were not that important to stay and vote. Suprisingly majority of the names that are missing in action are those of ‘celebrity’ status and even so few of the big shots themselves. One from DAP got barred from entering the Dewan Rakyat and one of ‘PAS’ is not really so. Five from DAP are all from Penang.

Words on the street has it that the mob is seeking answers and apologies from those responsibled.

Percentage of missing Pakatan Rakyat's MPs according to party

This is what Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz has to say, “the Opposition attempts to thwart parliament approval for 2010 Budget last night was known earlier to Barisan Nasional (BN)”.

He said he told BN Members of Parliament to remain in the Dewan Rakyat during the Third Reading knowing the opposition will use the voting process to thwart the passing of the Dato’ Seri Najib’s 2010 ’1Malaysia Prosperity for All’ Budget.

He said this at the Parliament lobby when commenting the Third Reading for 2010 Budget that was narrowly approved by a majority of three votes with 66 in favor from BN and 63 against it from the Pakatan rakyat.

Multiple keris balancing positions demonstration

As of 8th. September 2009, UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) acknowledged Indonesian Batik into world Intangible Culture Heritage list. This, together with Wayang Kulit (shadow puppet) and Keris (wavy dagger) that were inscribed in 2008 into the same, has been applauded many Indonesian citizens as a win over Malaysia amid recent accusation of Malaysia’s stealing Indonesia cultures. Indonesia’s medias and private blogs exude euphoric belief that the recognition will grant Indonesia exclusive rights in term of property and copyright for the said cultures. So how far this is true?

According to UNESCO’s own definition this would simply means they’ll recognize the effort of safeguarding these cultures in Indonesia. Specifically, it is all about preservation of culture. It was never about about property or copyright. This would also means that the ground is still open for Malaysia and other countries to request the same from UNESCO should they choose to.

What is Intangible Cultural Heritage?

According to the 2003 Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage, the intangible cultural heritage (ICH) – or living heritage – is the mainspring of our cultural diversity and its maintenance a guarantee for continuing creativity.

The Convention states that the ICH is manifested, among others, in the following domains:

* Oral traditions and expressions including language as a vehicle of the intangible cultural heritage;
* Performing arts (such as traditional music, dance and theatre);
* Social practices, rituals and festive events;
* Knowledge and practices concerning nature and the universe;
* Traditional craftsmanship.

The 2003 Convention defines ICH as the practices, representations, expressions, as well as the knowledge and skills, that communities, groups and, in some cases, individuals recognise as part of their cultural heritage.

The definition also indicates that the ICH to be safeguarded by this Convention:

* is transmitted from generation to generation;
* is constantly recreated by communities and groups, in response to their environment, their interaction with nature, and their history;
* provides communities and groups with a sense of identity and continuity;
* promotes respect for cultural diversity and human creativity;
* is compatible with international human rights instruments;
* complies with the requirements of mutual respect among communities, and of sustainable development.

The ICH is traditional and living at the same time. It is constantly recreated and mainly transmitted orally. It is difficult to use the term authentic in relation to ICH; some experts advise against its use in relation to living heritage (see the Yamato Declaration: English|French).

The depository of this heritage is the human mind, the human body being the main instrument for its enactment, or – literally – embodiment. The knowledge and skills are often shared within a community, and manifestations of ICH often are performed collectively.

Many elements of the ICH are endangered, due to effects of globalization, uniformization policies, and lack of means, appreciation and understanding which – taken together – may lead to the erosion of functions and values of such elements and to lack of interest among the younger generations.

The Convention speaks about communities and groups of tradition bearers, without specifying them. Time and again it was stressed by the governmental experts who prepared the draft of the Convention that such communities have an open character, that they can be dominant or non dominant, that they are not necessarily linked to specific territories and that one person can very well belong to different communities and switch communities.

The Convention introduces, by establishing the Representative List, the idea of “representativeness”. “Representative” might mean, at the same time, representative for the creativity of humanity, for the cultural heritage of States, as well as for the cultural heritage of communities who are the bearers of the traditions in question.

1. Man of the Forest
2. The Pygmy Elephant, Culture Theft and a Spat between Two Countries

Baby orangutans spend more time being reared by their mothers than any other mammal except humans.

Orangutans: The Red Apes

Orang = man
hutan = forest
Orangutan = man of the forest

The word orangutan translates literally as “man of the forest,” from the Malay and Indonesian words orang and hutan.

Orangutans, sometimes called “red apes,” are highly intelligent primates with advanced reasoning and thinking skills. They are tool-using creatures — they poke branches into termite holes, use chewed-up leaves as sponges to soak up water, and use branches or sticks to test the depth of the water before entering it.

Though large, orangutans are usually gentle, and spend most of their lives up in trees, where they’re safe from predators. They bear amazing similarities to humans: baby orangutans cry, whimper, and smile just like human babies, and their facial expressions indicate happiness, fear, anger, surprise, and other emotions. Orangutans and humans share approximately 97 percent the same DNA. Baby orangutans are cared for by their mothers longer than other mammals except humans.

Orangutans typically have long, shaggy reddish brown hair and a heavy body. They have long, strong arms well-suited for life in the trees, and hand-life feet, which aid in their climbing.

In ancient times, orangutans ranged throughout most of Asia. But today, as a result of human encroachment on their jungles, orangutan populations are found only in Borneo and Sumatra, the only areas with large enough forests to sustain a breeding population of these intelligent, gentle creatures.

The precise population of remainining orangutans is unknown, but experts estimate that the number of orangs in Sumatra is about half of what it was in 1993.

Orangutan Facts

• Size of Orangutans;
  Males: about 4 1/2 feet tall and 200 to 250 lbs.
  Females: About 3 1/2 feet tall and 100-150 lbs.
• Orangutan Lifespan:
  Orangutans live to about 35 to 40 years of age in the wild, and into their 50s in captivity.
• Orangutan Babies:
  Female orangutans bear one baby at a time, like humans, about every 6 to 7 years. The female reaches sexual maturity at around 7 years, and can remain fertile for up to 30 years.
• Social Culture:
  Adult female orangutans live with their young, while adult males live alone.
• Diet:
  Orangutan diets consist largely of fruits and nuts, coarse vegetation, insects, small vertebrates, tree bark, and eggs.

If you want to know if someone is a good person or not, ask his neighbor. If you asked anyone closed to him/her like friends or with family ties, most probably they will tell only the good things. In modern days, neighbor are liked watchdog, they looked at you for your lackings, whatever might be your wrongdoings as their eyes hawked over for your dirty laundry. Neighbors supposedly talked about each others, good or bad, undiscriminately, usually behind your back.

So they say.

Bordering with Malaysia are Singapore, Thailand, Brunei, the Philippines and Indonesia . These are Malaysia’s most immediate neighbors.

In not so old days, Singapore used to be just a district in Johore, one of Malaysia’s 13 states. Recently Malaysia has lost the Pedra Blanca or Pulau Batu Putih to Singapore in the International Court of Justice. The general Malaysian public was furious for losing a piece of land to a runaway island.

3 southernmost states in Thailand; Narathiwat, Yala, Pattani used to be part of ancient Hindu Malay kingdom Langkasuka, together with Kelantan, Perlis and Kedah of Malaysia’s northernmost. These 3 states, mainly consist from Malay muslim population, are now in turmoil with capital Bangkok over Muslim separatist movement.

The region of present-day Sabah was part of the Sultanate of Brunei around the early 16th century. The present-day Brunei is tiny compared to its glory days. Recently Brunei has officially dropped its long-standing territorial claim over Limbang, a northern division in Sarawak, ending the long-standing Malaysia-Brunei boundary issues.

The Philippines has dormant claim over Sabah as part of the Sultan of Sulu’s sovereignty, once a prize for helping the Sultan of Brunei against his enemies.

Indonesia has the most dispute with Malaysia. Historically parts of Malaysia used to be Indonesia and vice versa, depending on which period of civilization you looked at. Most favored by the Indonesian is the Majapahit era whilst most favored by Malaysian would probably be during the Malay Sultanate of Malacca. However, major parts of both countries were once united under the ancient Buddhist Malay Kingdom of Srivijaya on the island of Sumatra. Dispute between Malaysia and Indonesia nowadays mainly involved territorial claims and border related issues. Recently Indonesia has lost Sipadan and Ligitan island to Malaysia in the International Court of Justice, causing Malaysia’s subsequent claim over Ambalat. This and with other matters has caused the Indonesian public rewaging a ‘Ganyang Malaysia’ (destroy Malaysia) sentiment, once waged by the late President Sukarno over the inclusion of Sabah and Sarawak and formation of Malaysia in 1963 . As of today, the Malaysia map is following what was once determined by the Bristish, as Indonesia’s by the Dutch.

So basically we are screwed and mainly surrounded with enemies as neighbors. In that case, should you wanting to know about Malaysia, check your sources, its better if you read it from us first hand.

For the Muslims worldwide, the true significance of Aidil-adha is to commemorate the historical event when God had asked Prophet Abraham to sacrifice his son Ismael to test his obedience and thanks to his unquestionable willingness to carry out His command, God had later changed the sacrifice for a cow. Since then cow have been very popular in Muslim’s diet, and for the next few days after coming Friday, it would means excessive intake of red meat, usually cooked and eaten with rice, barbequed or made into Satays or other local delicacies.

A communal effort to bring down a cow for Aidil-adha. Image courtesy of aurisshaira89.blogspot.com. All rights reserved

Family members, relatives, neighbors, friends and complete strangers would gather, sometimes through a middle man to jointly sacrifice an animal. In Islam, an animal sacrifice is allowed to be divided into 7 parts (currently one part cost around RM360-400) as to cater for the financially disable. Those with lot of money can sometimes sacrifice a whole cow, if not 2 or 3.

Animal to be sacrificed must first be selected from a good and healthy breed with no deformity and be slaughtered in the name of Allah. One of the interesting Malay’s myth during Hari Raya Korban is that the person slaughtering the animal somehow decide whether it will be meatier or fattier depending on his skill.

Usually it would take a joint effort of 7-15 persons to process the slaughtered animal and is carried out voluntarily based on communal spirit . It is not a secret however that volunteers do have certain priveleges, access to rare parts for special delicacies like the head, testicles, tail, digestion system and other internal organs.  The sacrificial meats are then distributed to neighbors and relatives or prepared for feasting.

There are also politicians using the government money for a larger scale of sacrifice, not uncommon to have between 20 to 30 animal at one go, sometimes with 2-3 exclusive sacrifices with imported camels from Australia or the Middle East. In Islam, it is said that the ‘accepted’ animal sacrifice would help individuals in their far and long journey in the Day After, but since the politicians have their sacrifice at the expense of goverment money, it would be uncertain who would really benefit from the sacrifice, except maybe to fill in empty stomachs.

Only animal that can be eaten can be sacrificed, but not all of them. Apart from cows and camels, other domestic animals such as goats and sheeps can also be sacrificed. Chicken for one is not a sacrificial animal. Horse sacrifice is unheard of. In Malaysia, it is commonly cows.

Sometimes a small function is organized, to gather relatives and friends for a quick congregation. Foods (using the sacrifed animals as main ingredient) and drinks are served to those invited. Animal sacrifice is strict muslims affair only, but Aidil-adha is widely celebrated through-out Malaysia. Ironic? This would simply means that in particular to the sacrificial meat, where it can only be consumed by Muslims, another non-sacrificial meat would have to be prepared separately to serve for the non-muslims. (For a Muslim, a sacrificed animals are supposedly to be treated with respect, even their bones and other wastages are not allowed to be thrown away or eaten by scavengers and have to be buried in the ground afterward, and oh yes, not to be eaten by the infidels, sorry!).

It is more ironic that to the other 3-5% of Malaysia population (the Indian Hindus), cow are a revered and sacred animal. But Aidil-adha is not about being offensive to other religion. The Muslims too believed cows and other domestic animals as sacred, and these are the only animals that can assist in easing the burden of the far and long journey in the Judgement Day. In Malaysia, diversity and religious tolerance have faced the test of time and have proven that different cultures can co-exist with peace and harmony. On the other hand, it would be rather hard and unpractical to ask for a sacrificed animal should Islam being selective and had specified for exotic animals like Pandas, Orangutans, Bengal White Tigers or Alaskan penguins.

Religion aside, Aidiladha would mean another holiday to include into the country’s long list of holidays and breaks.
