Publisher's Synopsis
Malaysia is located on a strategic sea lane that exposes it to global trade and various cultures. Strictly, the name "Malaysia" is a modern concept, created in the second half of the 20th century. However, contemporary Malaysia regards the entire history of Malaya and Borneo, spanning thousands of years back to prehistoric times, like its history, and as such, it is treated on this page.
An early western account of the area is seen in Ptolemy's book Geographia, which mentions a "Golden Khersonese," now identified as the Malay Peninsula.[1] Hinduism and Buddhism from India and China dominated early regional history, reaching their peak during the reign of the Sumatra-based Srivijaya civilization, whose influence extended through Sumatra, Java, the Malay Peninsula, and much of Borneo from the 7th to the 13th centuries.
The book covers three decades of Malaysian social history based on
actual persons, true events, and genuine stories.
Those were the days filled with joy, laughter, and good memories...
This collection comprises 50 short stories set in Malaysia from
the 1950s to the 1970s. Carefully constructed and delivered with
a lot of heart, these uplifting stories are still relatable today.
