<b>Novel</b> analysis helped narrow <b>Malaysian</b> jet search | CTV News

Investigators are closer to solving an international aviation mystery thanks to a British communications satellite and classroom physics.

A masterful analysis of a handful of faint signals sent from Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 to an Inmarsat satellite led officials to conclude that the Boeing 777 crashed in a remote part of the southern Indian Ocean. More precise information about the plane's position when it sent the last signals is helping authorities refine the search being undertaken by planes and ships in seas 2,500 kilometers southwest of Perth, Australia. Investigators had precious little information to examine otherwise because the transponder, identifying the jet to air traffic controllers, was deactivated about the same time the jet veered off course from its original destination, Beijing, early March 8.

THE PINGS

Even with other communications shut down, the plane sent an automatic signal - a "ping" or a "handshake" - every hour to an Inmarsat satellite. The pings did not show the jet's location, speed or heading, but an initial analysis showed the last ping came from a position along one of two vast arcs north and south from the Malaysian Peninsula.

For its more detailed analysis, Inmarsat studied the pings sent from Flight 370 on the ground at Kuala Lumpur airport and early in its flight. It considered aircraft performance, satellite location and other known factors to calculate the possible positions, direction of travel and speed of the plane. It then compared its predictions to six other Boeing 777 aircraft that flew the same day, and found good agreement, according to Malaysian Defense Minister Hishammuddin Hussein. Inmarsat did not respond to repeated requests for comment from The Associated Press.

DOPPLER EFFECT

Think of a horn being honked in a passing car. To an observer, the sound is high pitched as the car approaches and is lower after the car passes. That's because on approach, each successive sound wave is sent from a slightly closer position to the observer. The sound waves get compressed, resulting in a higher frequency. The opposite happens as the car moves away. It's called the Doppler effect for Austrian physicist Christian Doppler, who first put forward the theory in 1842.

The same effect applies to "pings" from the plane to the satellite orbiting in a fixed position, which would arrive at a higher frequency if the plane was moving toward the satellite and decrease in frequency when moving away.

"By analyzing that you can determine speed and direction," said Joseph Bermudez Jr., chief analytics officer and co-founder of AllSource Analysis, a commercial satellite intelligence firm. And by determining the area from which the last signal was sent, then estimating fuel left, it "could give you an approximate area of where the aircraft impacted."

MORE ANALYSIS

Inmarsat sent its data to investigators days after the plane went missing. But it continued to run its own analysis to see if it could wring out any more clues.

The company's engineers were dealing with a "totally new area," Inmarsat's McLaughlin told the BBC. "This really was a bit of a shot in the dark." However, the latest information could only go so far in pinpointing the jet's location.

"We can't help you with any closer data," he said.

Satellite specialists were impressed by Inmarsat's analysis.

"They exploited a digital trail that was never intended for that use. It was just a shadow that somebody spotted and made use of," said David Cyganski, dean of engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

Gregory D. Durgin, a professor who teaches satellite communications at the Georgia Institute of Technology, said that because Inmarsat was using a different kind of satellite in a novel way, he expects it would locate the last ping from the Malaysia Airlines plane within "around 100 miles of precision." (160 km)

THE COMPANY

Inmarsat Plc started out in 1979 as an intergovernmental organization with the aim of helping ships communicate while at sea. It became a private company in 1999 and listed its shares in London in 2005. Customers now include governments, airlines, broadcast media, oil and gas companies, aid agencies as well as merchant shipping. They use handheld satellite phones, laptop size Internet devices and antennas linked to the company's 10 satellites to communicate.

3 <b>Novel</b> Ways to Experience <b>Malaysia</b> - Swiss-Belhotel International - Blog Novel Malaysia


3 <b>Novel</b> Ways to Experience <b>Malaysia</b> - Swiss-Belhotel International

Posted: 06 Nov 2011 11:11 PM PST

It's often said that Malaysia is really two countries in one. On the west is Pensinsula Malaysia, home to the capital Kuala Lumpur, while Malaysia Borneo rests on the other side of the South China Sea with its pristine rainforests and untouched islands. Malaysia hotels can offer travellers the highest levels of luxury and comfort. With its cuisine, attractive natural landscapes, and bustling cities and markets, Malaysia presents novel experiences for any traveller. These are three novel ideas for your next Malaysia holiday.

1. Take a Culinary Tour of the Country

Malaysian food reflects the country's multicultural heritage. There are at least five distinct cuisines within the country.

  • Malay cuisine. The Malay peoples have made a distinct impression on the cuisines of places such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and Brunei. While different Malay regions emphasise different ingredients and each have their own distinct dishes, there is a uniform generous use of spices, coconut milt, belacan, and rice. Nasi Lemak is probably one of the most famous Malay dishes.
  • Malaysian Indian cuisine. Malay Indian cuisine uses lots of Indian spices, coconut milk, and curry leaves. Some popular dishes include chicken curry and banana leaf rice.
  • Malaysian Chinese cuisine. Rooted in traditional Chinese cuisine, Malaysian Chinese food has been influenced by the local culture, with the use of herbs and spices being one of the key influences. Bak Kut Teh and Hainanese Chicken Rice are just some ppular examples.
  • Nonya cuisine. The Nyonya (Straits Chinese) and the Peranakan peoples are credited with developing the Nonya cuisine. While ingredients tend to be the same as that used in Chinese cuisine, ingredients such as lemongrass, tumeric, sambal, and coconut milk are incoporated. Asam Laksa is a famous example of Nonya cuisine.
  • Sarawak Indigenous Cuisine. Sarawakians have a distinct cuisine which is sometimes influenced by the Chinese or Indian cuisines. Popular dishes include Laksa Sarawak, a mouth-watering dish of rice vermicelli noodles with curry gravy, chicken, egg, and chilli paste.

One great way to experience the food of Malaysia is signing up for the many cooking schools or casual street food tours available in Malaysia.

2. Take a Malaysia Festival Holiday

One of the most distinctive elements of Malaysia's culture is how the local population celebrate festival periods during the year. During festival periods, Malaysians adopt an open house policy where friends and families visit each other to celebrate and to share traditional delicacies. For travellers, there are lots of things to see and do.

Key festivals and holidays:

  • Ramadan. The fasting month is one during which Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. The month ends with Eid ul-Fitr, during which locals will take one or two weeks off work to return home and visit family and friends. During this period, Kuala Lumpur and other major cities are relatively quiet.
  • Chinese New Year. The lunar New Year usually falls around January or February of the solar calendar. It's a very lively and festive time in Malaysia, especially around the Chinatown, Ipoh, and Penang areas with large Chinese communities.
  • Deepavali or Diwali. The Hindu festival of lights happens around October or November of each year and is an official holiday in Malaysia. The Hindu population will celebrate by visiting temples.
  • Buddhist holiday of Wesak. Wesak is celebrate in May by Buddhist to mark the Buddha's life. Buddhists gather at temples to meditate, provide food to the needy, and chant sutras.

3. Take an Island Holiday

Malaysia has many captivating islands with great beaches for relaxing and opportunities for water activities.

  • Rawa Island or Pulau Rawa – idyllic island with white sandy beaches.
  • Sipadan Island or Pulau Sipadan – one of the top diving destinations in Malaysia, Sipadan is located on the eastern side of Sabah Borneo.
  • Langkawi Island or Pulau Langkawi – one of the most popular islands for travellers, with direct flights from different regional airlines and plenty of luxury accommodation that equal that offered by quality Doha hotels or quality accommodation elsewhere in the world.
  • Sapi Island in Sabah – a very popular day trip destination that's great for snorkelling and relaxing.

<b>Melayu</b> Memang Tidak Layak Membaca <b>Novel</b> <b>...</b>

Posted: 08 Oct 2014 12:30 PM PDT

Novel – menurut penerbit – adalah karya fiksyen asli yang ditaip sebanyak 400 muka surat kertas A4 menggunakan font Times New Roman saiz 12 dan langkau dua baris.

Saya memang suka membaca novel Bahasa Melayu walaupun orang kata novel Melayu klise, tidak berkualiti, gedik, khayalan dan pelbagai tohmahan lain. Masih ingat lagi, novel Alaf 21 tidak wujud di perpustakaan sekolah maka yang dipinjam pada waktu itu ialah hasil tulisan Abdullah Hussain, Arena Wati, Keris Mas, A. Samad Said dan beberapa penulis lain yang saya sudah lupa nama mereka.

Kemudian barulah berjinak dengan Ramlee Awang Murshid yang popular dengan genre thriller, Norhayati Berahim yang selalu bercerita tentang perempuan, HM Tuah Iskandar yang tulis novel tapi penuh ceramah motivasi, Sharifah Abu Salem yang seolah menulis drama dan beberapa novel lain yang saya minat sebab kekuatan sastera dan cerita mereka. Penulis baru selepas itu kurang diminati kerana plot selalunya sama dan bertemakan kahwin kontrak.

Tsunami novel kahwin kontrak ini dipercayai berpunca daripada gelombang hallyu Full House – hero dan heroin tinggal bersama kemudian jatuh cinta. Tambah pula kesedaran agama yang tinggi dalam kalangan penulis muda yang berpegang teguh cinta sebelum nikah adalah haram menyebabkan mereka cuba menghalalkan dahulu hubungan karakter novel mereka. Namun begitu, formula ini sebenarnya bahaya, kerana tiada batasan dalam hubungan suami isteri.

Akhirnya dunia penulisan novel Melayu dipenuhi novel cabul. Luarannya nampak seperti klasifikasi Umum namun kandungannya dipenuhi adegan bercium, sentuhan mesra dan babak berahi antara suami isteri. Malangnya, novel sebegini sangat laku di pasaran.

Lebih malang lagi apabila novel-novel tersebut dijadikan adaptasi skrin, sekaligus mempromosi jualan novel tersebut kepada masyarakat Melayu. Umumnya, adegan panas dalam novel adalah lebih banyak daripada apa yang ditayangkan pada skrin. Kalau anime mungkin sudah dikategorikan sebagai soft porn atau ecchi.
pesta-buku
Seorang perempuan Melayu pernah menulis di Facebook, kalau mahu bahagia dan sweet dengan suami, mesti dirogol terlebih dahulu. Mungkin ini hasil didikan Wedding Breaker (Ariana Rose) dan Kasih Yang Suci (Nora Elena). Novel kadang-kadang mempengaruhi pembaca untuk mencuba resipi baru atau melawat tempat menarik yang dijadikan latar, namun kisah hero dan heroin lebih banyak memberi kesan untuk ditiru.

Terbaru, Dracula Untold menerima kritikan Melayu kerana Sultan Muhammad al-Fatih digambarkan kejam dan tidak berperikemanusiaan. Tidak kurang juga ada yang mempersoalkan kebenaran fakta sejarah dalam cerita tersebut. Dracula Untold – prequel kepada Dracula dalam novel tulisan Bram Stoker – juga dikaitkan dengan teori konspirasi dan brainwashing oleh pihak barat tentang sejarah Islam.

Ya, tidak dinafikan novel – atau mana-mana bentuk penulisan kreatif – merupakan senjata untuk mengubah pemikiran masyarakat. Hikayat Faridah Hanum, Anak Mat Lela Gila, Putera Gunung Tahan, dan karya-karya lain merupakan salah satu wasilah perjuangan kemerdekaan negara. Novel Imam oleh Abdullah Hussain serta novel-novel Faisal Tehrani – yang pernah saya baca – juga banyak menyerapkan unsur kontroversi dalam agama. Tujuannya adalah membasuh fikiran Melayu dengan idea dan konsep baru.
pembaca-novel
Namun begitu, pembaca Melayu mesti tahu apa itu fiksyen, apa itu fakta. Pernah suatu ketika, saya bertemu seorang perempuan Melayu yang menjadikan novel sebagai hujah tindakan beliau. Ini adalah satu kekeliruan. Novel bukan fakta dan tidak seharusnya dijadikan rujukan keilmuan dan penghujahan, melainkan menjadi pencetus untuk mencari kebenaran. Dulu, novel-novel seperti 1511, Arjuna Hati dan Enrique Mengundang Jauh, sedikit sebanyak menimbulkan sudut pandang baru dalam diri saya tentang sejarah.

Atas dasar ini juga, Abdul Latip Talib yang terkenal dengan novel sejarah Islam pernah dikritik kesahihan dialog dan babak dalam novel-novel beliau kerana melibatkan tutur bicara Nabi Muhammad SAW. Ini disebabkan novel telah melalui proses pengindahan melalui penggunaan bahasa, ayat-ayat berbunga dan dialog-dialog romantis yang direka-reka sedangkan kata-kata Nabi merupakan wahyu. Wahyu adalah fakta, bukan pendustaan.

Jika Melayu tidak mampu membezakan fakta dan fiksyen – baik dan buruk – realiti dan khayalan, maka Melayu tidak layak membaca novel dan mendapat manfaat daripadanya.

Sebagai kesimpulan, penulis mestilah bertanggungjawab terhadap apa yang mereka tulis. Sekalipun tidak mampu memberi faedah keilmuan ataupun mencetuskan perubahan, cukuplah sekiranya penulisan kita menjadi rujukan penggunaan Bahasa Melayu yang betul dan berkesan.

p/s: Agaknya novel Melayu apa yang layak dibaca sekarang? Komen di bawah, balik Malaysia nanti saya nak cari.

Nazi Goreng- a spunky pulp <b>novel</b> set in contemporary <b>Malaysia</b> <b>...</b>

Posted: 07 Nov 2013 08:00 AM PST

A journey is made of milestones. It has to. Without milestones, we would not be able to ponder our experiences, to stop and wonder about what we have accomplished during all this while.

One of the most shiny accomplishments of my 6 years stint on the road – on many roads, in many countries, with a particular deviancy for the shores of Southeast Asia – is to have become a published writer. And I would like to make it clear: I'm writing this post after I asked Rolf Potts whether or not he found such a display of self-promotion appropriate for Vagabonding. The answer was positive. Moreover, as my book's not traditionally about the art of travel, he thought best to let me talk about it, instead of wait for a traditional review.

My debut novel titled Nazi Goreng has been published by Monsoon books from Singapore in mid October, and is slowly appearing online and distributed in bookstores across Southeast Asia, the USA, Australia and the UK. It's a great accomplishment that makes the many hours spent honing the writing craft well worth. More than anything, it constitutes the greatest milestone of my past six years. And please consider: I'm not new to conquering experiences that few can boost to have under their belts. For example, hitchhiking from Singapore to Italy was one. Well, writing a book can be a similar process. It takes daily dedication to get you somewhere closer to reach your goal, your milestone that is. Chiseling a manuscript is a bit like hitching a ride: you never know what's coming up next, nor when you will reach your destination.

Nazi Goreng talks about Malaysia in a way you never read before: it's a fictional transposition of the racial tensions that one can only find in a country made up by different ethnic groups, where prayers are spelt to the sky in three languages, followed by wafts of sandalwood-scented smoke.  It's a dark assemblage of truths and fictional accounts based on my perplexing discovery of kuasa melayu (Malay power), a neo-Nazi group made up of brown skinned people.  And most importantly, it's a novel that doesn't talk about the British or Japanese occupation of the country, a theme too often coupled with Malayan-based historical fiction. On the contrary, this book is the result of years of real-life observations, friendships, time spent scouring the dark halls of local underground music venues, trying to decipher the different habits and ways of thinking of three of the most diverse races of greater Asia who, somehow, had come to share the same turf. And I care to precise, mine are modern day observations. They are a patchwork of the fantastic and terrible experience that living in a country like Malaysia can be. It's the apex of a personal trip to the inside of a particular Asian society, sung to the best of my mongrel minstrel's abilities. It's a way to keep myself sane after being on the road, on and off motion, for six long years.

I don't want to give away any spoilers, and if you are keen, some more information can be found here.  What I would like to communicate is really quite simple: I believe that we must use travel to open up our minds in creative ways. We must elaborate on what we have seen, smelt, touched, experienced, otherwise the sense is lost. We must find that unique angle which is ours, and ours only, and just functions as an extension of our own selves. I believe that it is only in such a case  that a voyage be well worth setting a milestone. It serves to remember a particular turning point, and grow to a different level.

Truth be told, I don't even know if I am a 'traveler' anymore. I feel more like I had dug up a hole in a tropical island, and had slowly covered myself under a mound of sand. But it is from the security of this new shelter, buried deep into the secrecy of another culture who seems less foreign every passing day, that I have chiseled my milestone. If you are interested in admiring its fine carvings, and see how much passion I reversed into the craft, please click here. And if you like what you see, consider giving some peanuts to the monkey, for it might keep the typewriter well oiled and always functional.

Seorang Penulis <b>Novel</b> Membuat Surat Terbuka Kepada Najib <b>...</b> - Blog Novel Malaysia


Seorang Penulis <b>Novel</b> Membuat Surat Terbuka Kepada Najib <b>...</b>

Posted: 02 Jul 2014 09:36 PM PDT

 

Sesi surat terbuka daripada rakyat Malaysia telah banyak ditulis kepada pemimpin kita, ada yang diambil peduli ada yang tidak.

Terkini, seorang penulis novel membuat surat terbuka untuk Perdana Menteri kita. Semoga Perdana Menteri ambil peduli apa yang ditulis oleh Muhammad Nomy.

Baca surat terbuka beliau di bawah…


 

Kehadapan Perdana Menteri Mohd Najib bin Abdul Razak,

Saya, Muhammad Nomy Bin Nozwir, hari ini menulis surat ini kerana sebagai seorang rakyat Malaysia, saya rasa saya cukup bimbang dengan masa depan saya dan negara ini.

Saya merasakan anda sedang membawa hala tuju negara ini ke arah yang tidak sepatutnya negara ini pergi.

Dalam masa saya tidak yakin dengan Pakatan Rakyat memerintah kerana terlalu banyak pergolakan konflik dalaman parti serta isu pemilihan dalam parti komponen PR yang tak selesai-selesai, saya juga tidak yakin dengan kepimpinan anda yang membawa negara ini ke arah terumbang-ambing.

Sejak 2009 apabila anda meneraju pentadbiran, terlalu banyak isu yang berlaku yang saya rasa anda tidak menanganinya dengan baik.

Ya, mungkin akan ada yang kata, "kalau kau pandai kau jadi la Perdana Menteri", saya akui saya tidaklah berapa pandai dan cerdik dan berkelayakan menjadi Perdana Menteri.

Tetapi, saya tidak berminat menjadi Perdana Menteri. Tetapi, tugas Perdana Menteri ini sangat berkait rapat dengan rakyat marhein seperti saya ini.

Dari isu api perkauman yang semakin marak, isu rasuah yang masih macam-macam hal, isu pembangunan yang asyik retak runtuh tenggelam pecah dan sebagainya, saya rasa anda di luar kawalan dan tidak mampu untuk mengawal keadaan di negara ini.

Setiap kali anda selaku Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Kewangan membentangkan bajet, ramai menteri, ahli akademik, penganalisis ekonomi berkata bajet yang anda bentangkan sebagai yang terbaik yang pernah dibentangkan.

Tetapi jika ia terbaik, kenapa negara ini dalam keadaan berantakan sebegini?

Saya malas nak tulis angka-angka yang menunjukkan kegagalan anda dalam mengurus tadbir negara ini kerana saya rasa kalau saya tulis pun bukan mengubah keadaan pun. Cuma, keadaan boleh dirasa di mana-mana, yang rakyat tidak yakin dengan kamu.

Hatta di kalangan orang BN sekali, tidak yakin dengan kamu.

Nah, saya tidak bermaksud mahu memperkecilkan mandat yang diterima BN melalui pilihanraya yang lalu, memandangkan sistem pilihan raya negara ini sudah dibentuk untuk memastikan BN akan sentiasa memerintah, maka bagi saya, carilah orang BN yang lebih berkelayakan,.

Tak ada orang dalam BN yang lebih bijak dari kamu ke Najib Razak? Takkan semua tidak ada yang lebih genius? Kalau ada, serahkan pada ahli BN yang genius itu dan anda terus sahaja letak jawatan dari terus dijadikan bahan ketawa orang ramai.

Anda mempunyai menteri yang bertugas di Jabatan Perdana Menteri seperti sebuah team bolasepak, ditambah pula anda mempunyai sebuah agensi untuk menasihatkan kamu yang dinamakan PEMANDU.

Jika anda mempunyai skuad yang sebegini punya ramai dan bajet sebegini punya mahal, kenapa masih banyak kerosakan berlaku dalam negara ini?

Ini macam satu bentuk pembaziran macam Manchester United beli Maruanne Fellaini.

Terus terang saya katakan, lebih ramai orang seperti saya, rakyat biasa yang tiap-tiap bulan runsing nak bayar sewa rumah, bil air dan letrik serta kos hidup yang semakin meningkat ini tidak yakin dengan kamu.

Menteri-menteri yang kamu lantik pun semuanya tidak berkaliber dan cakap merapu menyebabkan rakyat tidak lagi percaya dengan seluruh kabinet XXL kamu.

Menteri-menteri kamu ini hanyalah seperti "patung-patung tanah liat maharaja" Qin Shi Shuang, maharaja China yang mahu dikebumikan bersama seluruh bala tentera dan penasihatnya apabila dia mati.

Najib Razak, saya tahu bahawa anda adalah penyokong Manchester United dan musim lepas apabila kelab kesayangan anda itu melantik David Moyes menjadi pengurus pasukan, kelab kesayangan anda itu terus jatuh dari menjadi juara liga, kepada pasukan yang tak layak main mana-mana kejohanan Eropah pun.

Apa Manchester United buat, mereka pecat David Moyes kerana prestasi yang hambar.

Saya rasa prestasi anda mentadbir negara selama lima tahun ini lebih hambar dari setahun David Moyes mengurus Manchester United.

Apa perasaan kamu apabila David Moyes menjadikan kelab kesayangan anda ini menjadi pasukan bolasepak yang hambar?

Macam tu jugalah perasaan saya dan kebanyakan rakyat Malaysia terhadap kamu.

Sekian, selamat berpuasa.

Nomy Nozwir.

Penulis <b>Novel</b> &#39;Pelacur&#39; Dakwa DAP Perjuangkan Islam | Politik | Berita

Posted: 30 Sep 2014 03:44 AM PDT

Melati Rahim DAP

KUALA LUMPUR 30 Sept - Penulis novel 'Pelacur Kelas Pertama' ,  Jamila Rahim mempertahan ideologi DAP yang serasi dengan perjuangan Islam sekaligus merupakan faktor pendorong dirinya untuk menyertai parti itu.

Bagi gadis berpurdah itu berkata, DAP lebih dekat dengan perjuangan keadilan yang merupakan salah satu ideologi yang disarankan Islam itu sendiri.

"Jika diteliti secara kasar perlembagaan DAP itu sendiri, humanisme atau dasar kemanusiaan diletakkan sebagai tunjang dan teras utama (parti itu)," katanya ketika ditemubual Roketkini.

Keputusan Jamila telah mengejutkan pelbagai pihak yang menganggap ianya sebagai salah satu strategi DAP untuk mendekati pengundi Islam di negara ini.

Sementara itu, beberapa penulis politik memberi reaksi negatif terhadap Jamila yang dilihat sebagai buta perjuangan agama.

Penulis 'KuntaKinte Malaysia' dari MyKMU menyifatkan gadis yang turut dikenali sebagai Melati itu seolah-olah menjual diri dan agama hanya kerana terpengaruh dengan kemewahan yang ditawarkan.

Katanya, bagi seorang anak gadis Islam atau mana-mana anak muda Islam menyertai DAP, mereka sebenarnya mengukuhkan usaha DAP melemahkah kedudukan dan peranan Islam di negara ini.

"Pelacur yang menjual diri tidak akan menghakis kedudukan kebesaran Islam di negara ini, tapi mereka yang menyertai DAP sedang membantu menghancurkan kedudukan Islam di Malaysia.

"Hakikatnya, lebih mulia jadi pelacur yang menjual diri untuk sesuap nasi, dari mereka yang bertudung dan berpurdah 'menjual diri' kepada DAP untuk kesenangan dunia sehingga melemahkan Islam," katanya dalam tulisannya bertajuk "Melati, Lebih Baik Jadi Pelacur Dari Sertai DAP."

3 <b>Novel</b> Ways to Experience <b>Malaysia</b> - Swiss-Belhotel International - Blog Novel Malaysia


3 <b>Novel</b> Ways to Experience <b>Malaysia</b> - Swiss-Belhotel International

Posted: 06 Nov 2011 11:11 PM PST

It's often said that Malaysia is really two countries in one. On the west is Pensinsula Malaysia, home to the capital Kuala Lumpur, while Malaysia Borneo rests on the other side of the South China Sea with its pristine rainforests and untouched islands. Malaysia hotels can offer travellers the highest levels of luxury and comfort. With its cuisine, attractive natural landscapes, and bustling cities and markets, Malaysia presents novel experiences for any traveller. These are three novel ideas for your next Malaysia holiday.

1. Take a Culinary Tour of the Country

Malaysian food reflects the country's multicultural heritage. There are at least five distinct cuisines within the country.

  • Malay cuisine. The Malay peoples have made a distinct impression on the cuisines of places such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and Brunei. While different Malay regions emphasise different ingredients and each have their own distinct dishes, there is a uniform generous use of spices, coconut milt, belacan, and rice. Nasi Lemak is probably one of the most famous Malay dishes.
  • Malaysian Indian cuisine. Malay Indian cuisine uses lots of Indian spices, coconut milk, and curry leaves. Some popular dishes include chicken curry and banana leaf rice.
  • Malaysian Chinese cuisine. Rooted in traditional Chinese cuisine, Malaysian Chinese food has been influenced by the local culture, with the use of herbs and spices being one of the key influences. Bak Kut Teh and Hainanese Chicken Rice are just some ppular examples.
  • Nonya cuisine. The Nyonya (Straits Chinese) and the Peranakan peoples are credited with developing the Nonya cuisine. While ingredients tend to be the same as that used in Chinese cuisine, ingredients such as lemongrass, tumeric, sambal, and coconut milk are incoporated. Asam Laksa is a famous example of Nonya cuisine.
  • Sarawak Indigenous Cuisine. Sarawakians have a distinct cuisine which is sometimes influenced by the Chinese or Indian cuisines. Popular dishes include Laksa Sarawak, a mouth-watering dish of rice vermicelli noodles with curry gravy, chicken, egg, and chilli paste.

One great way to experience the food of Malaysia is signing up for the many cooking schools or casual street food tours available in Malaysia.

2. Take a Malaysia Festival Holiday

One of the most distinctive elements of Malaysia's culture is how the local population celebrate festival periods during the year. During festival periods, Malaysians adopt an open house policy where friends and families visit each other to celebrate and to share traditional delicacies. For travellers, there are lots of things to see and do.

Key festivals and holidays:

  • Ramadan. The fasting month is one during which Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. The month ends with Eid ul-Fitr, during which locals will take one or two weeks off work to return home and visit family and friends. During this period, Kuala Lumpur and other major cities are relatively quiet.
  • Chinese New Year. The lunar New Year usually falls around January or February of the solar calendar. It's a very lively and festive time in Malaysia, especially around the Chinatown, Ipoh, and Penang areas with large Chinese communities.
  • Deepavali or Diwali. The Hindu festival of lights happens around October or November of each year and is an official holiday in Malaysia. The Hindu population will celebrate by visiting temples.
  • Buddhist holiday of Wesak. Wesak is celebrate in May by Buddhist to mark the Buddha's life. Buddhists gather at temples to meditate, provide food to the needy, and chant sutras.

3. Take an Island Holiday

Malaysia has many captivating islands with great beaches for relaxing and opportunities for water activities.

  • Rawa Island or Pulau Rawa – idyllic island with white sandy beaches.
  • Sipadan Island or Pulau Sipadan – one of the top diving destinations in Malaysia, Sipadan is located on the eastern side of Sabah Borneo.
  • Langkawi Island or Pulau Langkawi – one of the most popular islands for travellers, with direct flights from different regional airlines and plenty of luxury accommodation that equal that offered by quality Doha hotels or quality accommodation elsewhere in the world.
  • Sapi Island in Sabah – a very popular day trip destination that's great for snorkelling and relaxing.

The Home Ministry has banned a book launched by Prime Minister Najib Razak in 2012 for purportedly promoting Shia teachings, The Malaysian Insider reported.

Citing Home Minister Zahid Hamidi, the news portal said that "Perempuan Nan Bercinta", written by local author Faisal Tehrani, was deemed "likely to be prejudicial to public order".

There are two main schools of thought in Islam: Sunni and Shi'ite.

Perempuan_Nan_BercintaThe former is seen as orthodox and traditionalist, and is the only branch of Islam recognised in Malaysia.

The latter with its strong theme of martyrdom was banned in 1996 by the National Fatwa Council which ruled that its teachings were deviant.

According to The Malaysian Insider, Najib, when launching Malay-language book in 2012, had said that the country's novelists have the freedom to write.

It's unknown why the Home Ministry decided to ban the novel now.
