Abstract:

Kajian membuktikan bahawa cerita rakyat yang terdapat di Malaysia sesuai dijadikan bahan bacaan untuk masyarakat Melayu. Berbicara tentang seni budaya berfi kir dan akal budi masyarakat Melayu dalam menyelesaikan suatu masalah merupakan medium yang paling berkesan yang diperoleh menerusi cerita rakyat yang dikarang menerusi bahan bacaan hingga kini. Lantaran kepesatan dan pemodenan di Malaysia, bidang teknologi memainkan peranan penting dalam memperkasakan dan membawa cerita rakyat di peringkat yang lebih tinggi dengan adanya pendokumentasian cerita rakyat menerusi platform multimedia yang pelbagai. Namun, cerita rakyat boleh membentuk budaya berfikir dan akal budi masyarakat Melayu dalam menyelesaikan masalah dan teknologi menyampaikan mesej yang berkesandalam membentuk jati diri Melayu yang sempurna. The study proves that the folklore found in Malaysia is suitable as a reading material for the Malaycommunity. Talking about the artistic culture of thinking and the mind of the Malay community in solving a problem is the most effective medium to be gained through the folklore authored through the reading material to date. Due to the rapidity and modernization of Malaysia, the technology field plays an important role in empowering and bringing folklore at a higher level with the existence of documentary folklore through diverse multimedia designs. However, folklore can shape the culture of thinking and the mind of the Malay community in solving the problems and technology delivers effective messages in forming a perfect Malay identity.

Abstract:

Mother's love doesn't matter, for the sake of her child she is willing to do anything. Including to support the decision of the child who wants to migrate to improve the family economy. A child who went abroad became successful because of his business outside the city and then forgot his mother who was alone at home praying for her child's safety. Although this story has often been heard by the people of Indonesia, it is about a child who disobeys his mother. However, it turns out that this theme is not only found in Indonesia. There are several folk tales with the same theme from various countries, such as Malaysia and Brunei. This is interesting to study because the three folklores are located in different areas with different socio-cultural and economic backgrounds, but have similarities or parallels in story motifs. This study aims to determine the similarities and differences between the folklore "Si Lancang" from Riau, Indonesia, with the story "Nakhoda Manis" from Brunei, and the folktale "Si Tanggang" from Malaysia. The study used in this research is a comparative literary structure study. This study uses a comparative description method. Through comparative literary structural studies, it can be said that these folk tales have similarities in structures such as themes and messages. There are also differences in characters, characteristics, plots, and folklore backgrounds. Keywords: Comparison, structural, folklore.

Abstract:

Abstrak Cerita rakyat berkembang dari generasi ke generasi dan disampaikan melalui lisan sehingga cerita rakyat dikenali sebagai sastera rakyat naratif nusantara. Cerita rakyat dianggap sebagai media hiburan pada zaman dahulu yang sarat dengan nilai-nilai pengajaran. Namun begitu, jika cerita rakyat difahami dan diteliti ia mempunyai hubung kait antara kehidupan masyarakat dengan kebudayaan masyarakatnya seperti kepercayaan, sistem kekeluargaan dan ekonomi. Namun, kini cerita rakyat semakin kurang mendapat tempat di hati generasi kerana kewujudan teknologi moden. Lantaran itu, kajian ini bertujuan mengenalpasti dan membincangkan ritual yang terkandung dalam cerita rakyat di Mukim Bebar Pekan, Pahang. Seterusnya, kajian ini juga menggunakan landasan teori fungsionalisme bagi analisis perbincangan. Metodologi kajian adalah secara kualitatif melalui kajian kerja lapangan iaitu kaedah temu bual berstruktur yang melibatkan tukang-tukang cerita di Mukim Bebar Pekan, Pahang. Hasil kajian mendapati ritual yang terdapat dalam cerita rakyat di Mukim Bebar Pekan, Pahang mempunyai hubung kait yang rapat dengan kebudayaan masyarakat Melayu dan masih diaplikasikan dalam kehidupan sesetengah masyarakat di kampung tersebut hingga ke hari ini. Abstract Folklore grows from generation to generation and is conveyed orally until it is known as folk narrative literature of the archipelago. Folklore was known as an entertainment medium in ancient times laden with teaching values. Folklore has a relation between the life of the community and the culture of the community, projected through beliefs, family system and economy. However, folktales are now less appreciated as among the younger generation, mostly due to the modern technology advancement. This study aims at identifying and discussing the rituals contained in the folklore collected at Mukim Bebar Pekan, Pahang. This study also uses the theoretical foundation of functionalism in the discussions and analyses. The research methods employed are qualitative and a fieldwork involving a structured interview method of the storytellers in Mukim Bebar Pekan, Pahang. It can be concluded that there is a close relation between the community and its culture where some rituals are still being practiced in the lives of some people in the village, even up to now.

Abstract:

Children and Adolescent Literature have yet to find its precise definition in the corpus of Modern Malay Literature. In this regard, the works whose characters consist of adults continue to be enjoyed by children until they eventually complicate the definition of Children’s Literature. Thus, many Western folklore works such as Cinderella, Rapunzel, and others have become the focus of children's reading in Malaysia. Something needs to be done so that reading materials that encounter the East and Islamic values are served to these young people. Therefore, Hikayat Literature through the text of the Hikayat Khoja Maimun needs to be highlighted to replace Western folklore. The objective of this study is to identify characters that communicate in Hikayat Khoja Maimun and analyze the adab of communicating between the characters based on six (6) communication methods in Surah Luqman. The methodology of the study is by text analysis with three main activities to complete the objective of the study which is; to explain the character that communicates in the text of Hikayat Khoja Maimun, to identify the framework for analyzing the communication in Hikayat Khoja Maimun and to analyze the communication between the main characters based on six (6) methods of communication in the Quran through Surah Luqman i.e. through the call, symbolism, repetition, explanation, attention, and selection of idols. The study found that Hikayat Khoja Maimun reserved six (6) adab communicating in Surah Luqman. This denotes that through well-mannered communication, all matters can be delivered easily and successfully. Indeed, Hikayat Khoja Maimun as one of the works in Malay Hikayat Literature serves not only to teach but also to entertain the audience. Finally, it is time that the child reading material in Malaysia being replaced by the magnum opus inherited from generations rather than relying on Western folklore which is far deviating the audience from adab and desired values.

Abstract:

In the folklore of emerging markets, there is a popular belief that bubbles are inevitable. In this paper, our objective is to estimate a state-space model for rational bubbles in selected Asian economies with the aid of the Kalman Filter. For each economy, we derive a possible picture of the bubble formation process that is implied by the state-space formulation. The estimation is based on the rational valuation formula for stock prices. Our results provide a possible way of defining the presence of rational bubbles in the stock markets of Taiwan, Singapore, Korea, and Malaysia.

Abstract:

Malaysia is rich in natural and herbal resources which have the potential to be used as traditional medicine as well as cosmetics. These plant sources are used by the folklore to help in enriching their beauty. Leaves, fruits, flowers and roots of medicinal plants in Malaysia are used in cosmetic formulations to get different biological effects. Health issues with particular reference to skin issues, such as acne, dry skin, dull skin and alopecia can be alleviated by using these plants. Since time immemorial, herbal products have been used in maintaining and enhancing physical appearance of humans. Herbal cosmetics have growing demand in the world market and is an invaluable gift of nature. This review is about ten commonly available medicinal plants in Malaysia used in the cosmetic formulations which includes Aloe vera, Curcuma longa, Cocos nucifera, Cucumis sativus, Melaleuca alternifolia, Punica granatum, Garcinia mangostana, Carica papaya, Lawsonia inermis and Hibiscus rosasinensis. These are the ten plants that are commonly used traditionally in treating many skin conditions and hair problems. Different parts of the plant may produce different beneficial effects to the consumers. Using the herbal and natural ingredients in cosmetics alleviates the side effects almost to nil. This is predominantly lower than the side effects caused by synthetic cosmetics.

Abstract:

The discovery of special collection of Malay language children’s stories at University of Leiden, Netherlands proves that the traditional Malay community cares for appropriate reading material for children. Based on Teuku Iskandar's note in the Catalogue of Malay, Minangkabau, and South Sumatran Manuscripts in The Netherlands, there are many stories of children in the archipelago that are stored in University of Leiden’s Library, Netherlands. However, in this study the researchers only examine three stories in the Children's Story 26 May 1862 Collection. The stories in the collection do not have specific titles, only known as Story 1, Story 2 and Story 3 and 2 stories are contained in the collection of Parable stories. This disclosure is made because there is an opinion that the folklore today is hardly recognizable by the younger generation. This universal issue encourages the researchers to look into old Malay manuscripts and their relevance in the context of children today. Hence the objectives of this study are to classify and analyze folklore functions towards children. Hence, the method of the study involves 450 children randomly chosen according to the zones, the north, south, east and west zones of Peninsular Malaysia, as well as the Sabah and Sarawak zones. The findings show that there are still folk tales that have certain functions that can benefit children. The findings also show that children today are less vulnerable to the stories of their ancestral heritage.

Abstract:

This article discusses the Sihan community and one of their traditional oral narratives, known as sangin. Sihan is an indigenous ethnic group residing in Belaga, Sarawak, Malaysia, and sangin is an activity that can be considered a folklore, narrative in manner, and performed for entertainment and native remedy. Data on the community in this study was obtained through interviews with 71 Sihan informants in Belaga, Sarawak, Malaysia. The sangin by one of its practitioners was recorded during the community’s leisure activities. The recorded sangin song, delivered in the style of storytelling, narrated for entertainment, not for remedy purposes. The description of the sangin indicates that the language in the oral tradition, called antu language (language of the spirit) is very different from the modern, every day Sihan language used by its speakers. In terms of usage, sangin can be considered extinct because of the reduced number of Sihan speakers (only 218 left) and lessening number of sangin practitioners (only three remain). Sangin as a native remedy no longer has a place in the community with the availability of modern medical treatment, the mass migration of the Sihans from their original area, and the change in the Sihans’ life style, from nomadic to community life.

Abstract:

Melastoma malabathricumL. (Melastomataceae) is one of the 22 species found in the Southeast Asian region, including Malaysia. Considered as native to tropical and temperate Asia and the Pacific Islands, this commonly found small shrub has gained herbal status in the Malay folklore belief as well as the Indian, Chinese, and Indonesian folk medicines. Ethnopharmacologically, the leaves, shoots, barks, seeds, and roots ofM. malabathricumhave been used to treat diarrhoea, dysentery, hemorrhoids, cuts and wounds, toothache, and stomachache. Scientific findings also revealed the wide pharmacological actions of various parts ofM. malabthricum, such as antinociceptive, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antidiarrheal, cytotoxic, and antioxidant activities. Various types of phytochemical constituents have also been isolated and identifed from different parts ofM. malabathricum. Thus, the aim of the present review is to present comprehensive information on ethnomedicinal uses, phytochemical constituents, and pharmacological activities ofM. malabathricum.

Abstract:

Cerita kanak-kanak dalam penerbitan sastera kanak-kanak semakin berkembang pesat seiring dengan perubahan zaman dan kepesatan dunia dalam arus teknologi maklumat. Perkembangan pesat teknologi turut memberi kesan positif terhadap perubahan reka bentuk (design) kulit buku dalam penerbitan sastera kanak-kanak pada masa kini. Reka bentuk kulit buku kanak-kanak dihubungkan dengan konsep kearifan tempatan. Oleh hal yang demikian, makalah ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji sejauh manakah reka bentuk kulit buku sastera kanak-kanak di Malaysia menerapkan ciri-ciri kearifan tempatan? Kearifan tempatan merangkumi adat budaya, agama dan kepercayaan, cara hidup dan ilmu pengetahuan yang menjadi pegangan dari zaman berzaman dan identiti sesebuah masyarakat. Bahan kajian ini menggunakan reka bentuk kulit buku siri Young Aisyah dan Penulis Tunas Super yang diterbitkan oleh PTS Publishing House Sdn. Bhd. Justifikasi pemilihan ini kerana Syarikat PTS antara syarikat yang aktif menerbitkan buku sastera kanak-kanak di Malaysia. Kajian ini menggunakan konsep kearifan tempatan yang dikemukakan oleh Geertz (1973), Hiwasaki et al. (2014), Suraya Sintang, Khadijah Mohd Hambali @ Khambali (2015) dan The Center of Folklore Research (2007). Kaedah yang digunakan dalam kajian ini ialah kaedah perpustakaan dan analisis teks. Dapatan kajian memperlihatkan reka bentuk kulit buku sastera kanak-kanak terbitan Syarikat PTS masih mempunyai ciri-ciri kearifan tempatan walaupun tidak secara keseluruhannya. Kesimpulannya, reka bentuk kulit buku cerita kanak-kanak dapat menjadi medium untuk memperkenalkan dan mengangkat kearifan tempatan yang menjadi identiti dan kemegahan bangsa.

Abstract:

This doctoral thesis is a feminist ethnographic study of psychiatric patients in the State of Sarawak, East Malaysia. The study took place at a psychiatric hospital located in the capital city of Kuching, commencing in 1997. Although Hospital Sentosa is a small institution it is the only psychiatric institution in the State and therefore constitutes an important mental health resource in this region. This ethnographic study primarily concentrates on the lives of women patients in keeping with my chosen methodological approach and seeks to explore the 'culture' of the hospital setting through facets such as daily interactions, activities and relationships. The feminist approach has not however precluded the accounts of male patients whose experiences are utilised in a comparative exercise with those of women counterparts. In addition the views of staff of both sexes and all ranks are considered in relation to their attitudes towards the care of psychiatric patients and the broader area of work-related concerns including collegial support and occupational hazards. In keeping with an ethnographic approach themes developed in the thesis are drawn through an analysis of findings as noted by observation methods as well as through interviews with participants. Furthermore a self-reflexive approach has been an important aspect of analysis commensurate with feminist methodology, in which my role as a researcher is considered in relation to issues of culture, gender and class as well as some of the difficulties of research in a post-colonial and unfamiliar cultural context. Although some avenues of inquiry in the study have not easily lent themselves to an analysis of gender, this thesis primarily argues that the hospital reproduces oppressive policies and practices that impact with greater severity on women patients. Oppressive practices in relation to gender and ethnicity at the hospital are viewed against a backdrop of contemporary psychiatric care as enacted on wards. It is argued that these practices can be viewed in turn as being, for the most part, historically premised upon imported British models of care replicated through colonialism in Malaya and by extension at a later period in the multicultural State of Sarawak.

Abstract:

If one has not read local English novels like The Garden of Evening Mists and The Night Tiger, one would never be able to imagine the wonders of locales depicted in these two books. One of the reasons the authors here want to visit a said destination is because of the way a certain place is pictured in narratives. Tan Twan Eng brings to life the beauty of Japanese gardens in Cameron Highlands, in the backdrop of postWorld War II while Yangsze Choo takes us into several small towns of Kinta Valley in the state of Perak in her beautifully woven tale of the superstitions and beliefs of the local people in Chinese folklore and myth in war torn Malaysia in the 1930s and after. Many of the places mentioned in these two novels should be considered places to visit by tourists local and international. Although these Malaysian novelists live away from Malaysia, they are clearly ambassadors of the Malaysian cultural and regional heritage. In this paper, a few of the places in the novel will be looked at as potential spots for the coming decade. The research questions considered here are i) what can be done to make written narratives the new trend to pave the way for Visit Malaysia destinations? ii) how could these narratives be promoted as guides to the history and culture of Malaysia? The significant destinations and the relevant cultural history of the regions will be discussed in-depth to come to a relevant conclusion.
