Alhamdulillah…UMNO did something right for a change. I’m referring to their decision to support and recognize Ahmad Said as the Menteri Besar of Terengganu in line with the wishes of the Sultan of Terengganu.UMNO has to quickly shift their focus on other pertinent issues now. I’m a bit worried after seeing that the Malays are now splintered into so many different factions after the recent 2008 Malaysian General Election. In the past, the Malays were either with UMNO or PAS but now PKR has made it even worst. UMNO itself is facing internal division and conflict.What would happen to the Malays now?Malays must remember that other parties are watching this new development with glee. Take a look around the Malaysian blogospere and you can see what I mean. The Malays could not afford to be

During the meeting with the Agong, my sources told me, the PM was asked to explain how the RM1 billion "wang ehsan" was disbursed by the State Government under former Menteri Besar Idris Jusoh. Since winning back Terengganu from PAS in 2004, the BN government has been paying the State Government some RM1 billion a year (the "wang ehsan" did not exist when PAS ruled Terengganu). Terengganu has the second highest number of poor people in Malaysia, after Sabah.The present Yang diPertuan Agong hails from Terengganu.The PM was also told to meet with Ahmad Said, the Sultan of Terengganu's choice for MB. The Star said half an hour ago that the PM would also meet Idris.Original Post:-Idris Jusoh, say bye to the MB's office: -The PM, who was granted an audience with the Agong before this morning's

My fellow Muslim NGO colleagues in Terengganu reported that the people of Terengganu are outraged with UMNO Terengganu’s recent show of disrespect to the Sultan of Terengganu and His Royal Household.Video courtesy of tvPAS Dot ComPlans to show support for the Sultan of Terengganu have been put in place by various Terengganu Malay NGO groups and this will certainly put UMNO Terengganu in the frying pan. Serves them right!What are you going to do now, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi?I don’t know about the rest of my Muslim NGO colleagues here in Perak but I’m 100% behind our Malay Rulers on such issues.Daulat Tuanku!Tags: malaysia kini, malaysiakini, malaysiatoday, malaysia election, 2008 election, barisan nasional 2008

Well folks, I do not have the answer for you but tvPAS Dot Com released a very interesting video that might provide answers to this question yesterday. Go ahead and watch it now down below.Courtesy of tvPAS Dot ComAs you can see, the allegations thrown against Idris Jusoh were pretty serious and I don’t want to make any comments about them. One thing bothers me though, if those allegations were true, did anybody came forward and report them to the Anti Corruption Agency (ACA)?Do you folks know anything about those allegations mentioned in the video? Do share with me what you know.Hudhaifah, may Allah be pleased with him, said:I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) say: The tale-bearer will not enter Paradise.Hadith number in Sahih Muslim [Arabic only]: 151Tags: terengganu, idr

Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said that the appointment of anyone but Idris Jusoh (stone cold billion dollar man) as Terengganu Mentri Besar is unconstitutional.PAS President Dato' Seri Tuan Guru Haji Abdul Hadi Awang meanwhile said that the people of Terangganu should respect the decision made by Terengganu’s Regency Advisory Council (MPPR).I will say that it is Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and his cahoots and cronies in UMNO that did not respect the constitution.Have they forgotten that ‘Loyalty to King & Country’ comes second after ‘Belief in God’ in our Rukun Negara (National Principles)?Courtesy of tvPAS Dot ComTags: malaysia kini, malaysiakini, malaysiatoday, malaysia election, 2008 election, barisan nasional 2008

What are you doing, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi?Your popularity has plunged to the bottom of the pit after the recent general election and your position as Prime Minister is very fragile at the moment. Don’t you realize that, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi?Generations of our Malay Rulers have ruled this land peacefully for hundreds of years, far longer than your pathetic and chaotic UMNO and Barisan Nasional. Modernization has not killed the respect that the common people have for our Malay Rulers. We are still loyal to our Malay Rulers and I hope that you will never forget that.Your defiance of the right of our Malay Rulers to choose what is best for their kingdom and royal subjects are highly uncalled for. You might as well kiss your political career goodbye, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi. Your days as Malay

I was on a business trip up to Kuantan, and while driving up to Kuantan, my colleague and I had 3 hourse to decide, stay in Kuantan town or Cherating ? After almost reaching Gambang, we impulsively decided, Cherating la.. cheaper seafood there... hohoho....We reached Cherating after dark, and at night, we mostly drove around in dimly lit streets around Cherating Beach, looking for a nice place that serves Seefood, something that is appropriate for my diet, see food diet... and also bought a whole bunch of Ikan Satay and Keropok ikan and udang from those road side stalls along the highway, from Cherating to Chukai.I must have been to the Kuantan branch before, but my colleague who was a bit blur blur, told me, in Chukai town got one Kopitiam very nice wan... so I asked, is it Hai Peng ?

"In the days before, there were roads, the Terengganu River was the only means of communication for the people living in its upper tributaries." In the days before, there were roads, the Terengganu River was the only means of communication for the people living in its upper tributaries. These upper tributaries, the Berang, Tersat, Telemong, Kerbat and Cacing, formed a network of settlements going back to ancient times. One of the earliest finds of human settlement is at Gunung Biwas on the Cacing River. This is the site of one of the earliest human settlements on the Peninsular. The Batu Bersurat, an Islamic stone inscription indicating early Islamic influence, was found near Kuala Berang.Up and down, river traffic has diminished today but there is still regular cross-river traffic at a few places particularly at Kuala Telemong and in Kuala Terengganu town. The cross-river boat service in Kuala Terengganu links the town centre with Pulau Duyong in the middle of the river. Commuters fin

View from Dataran MaziahBukit PuteriBukit Puteri is situated at the mouth of Terengganu River. It covers an area of about 658 hectares and the height is about 200 meters from the sea level. Bukit Puteri was built to defend the Rulers of Terengganu from attacks by the enemies. Bukit Puteri is easily accessible as there are steps leading to the top. Bukit Puteri was said to have originated as a place of residence for Puteri Bunian. However, the princess left Bukit Puteri when the local residents borrowed her cutlery and did not return them to her. According to legend, this hill was opened by a chieftain from Johor named Tuk Raja Menteri who came to Terengganu to install Sultan Zainal Abidin I as the first Sultan of Terengganu.During the year 1830, there was a struggle for power among the two royalty of Terengganu that is, Tengku Mansur, the Sultan of Terengganu who was conferred the title of Sultan Mansur Shah II and Tengku Umar, the Yang Di pertuan Besar.

Istana Maziah is the official Terengganu sultan's palace. It is located near Bukit Puteri in Kuala Terengganu, Terengganu, Malaysia. The distinct deep yellow structure of the Istana Maziah royal palace is hard to miss if you're walking around Kuala Terengganu. Located right next to Bukit Puteri, Istana Maziah is believed to have been constructed during the reign of Sultan Zainal Abidin III in 1897 to replace the Istana Hijau, which was burned down during World War II.Istana Maziah is the venue for royal birthdays, weddings, conferment of titles and receptions for local and foreign dignitaries. This distinct building is a product of the blend between modern and traditional architecture, which reflects the artistic skills of the Terengganu people. 20 craftsmen using limestone mixed with clay, coarse salt, egg yolk and honey constructed it. The palace has tall shuttered windows resembling those of a French chateau.Located in front of Istana Maziah, Dataran Maziah is a mini-park beautif

02 June 2007 (The Brunei Times) - Liz Price writes a travel piece on the Tasik Kenyir, or Kenyir Lake, the largest man-made lake in Southeast Asia and also home to a few archaeological cave sites. Terengganu’s Kenyir Lake beckons for a spelunking adventure … Before the creation of the lake, there were several caves accessible, some of archaeological importance. However, when the area was flooded, most of the caves were lost underwater. Prior to their disappearance, archaeologists had discovered Neolithic artifacts such as kitchen utensils, stone adzes and pottery sherds. Even a Neolithic burial was found, with broken pottery laid at the foot of the deceased. The Neolithic or New Stone Age era occurred roughly 10,000 years ago. The cave was probably adjacent to two well-known routes used by the aborigines in prehistoric times through Terengganu to Sungai Tembling. Now there are two remaining limestone hills containing caves that can only be reached by boat. Gua Bewah is the

Comment: Big brother watching? This is the one rule that should never have been introduced. If they have a problem with a few staff who went awol during tea breaks, then they should be dealt with the right way, not with a blanket ruling to say everybody can't go. Next, these people will be forced to eat at their table and have regulated potty breaks. C'mon, get real. The Star reported that there will be no more jom minum (let’s go for a drink) outside the office for Terengganu civil servants during working hours. If they want a cuppa or take a snack break, the 13,000 civil servants in the state will have to make do with the office pantry. The ruling is effective June 1 as imposed by State Secretary Mokhtar Nong. Circulars on this ruling will be issued from today to all department heads. Those who flout the directive will face disciplinary action. “We will direct all heads to monitor the movement of their subordinates and submit names of those who are in defiance, so that disci
