Keluarga Malaysia Teguh Bersama

  Today I witnessed the ceremonial ritual for the deity Tua Pek Kong in the temple named Sun Wukong (in simplified Chinese 大悲水). This temple is unique. It sits on rocky terrain and slopes. I followed a group visit by the Yong Chuan Temple from Melaka. Wukong was put to guard the Peaches of Immortality for the Heaven but he ate all instead. On finding out Wukong ate the peaches, the Jade Emperor informed Buddha what Wukong had done. Sun Wukong was laid immobilized beneath the weight of Buddha's mountain for more than 500 years. It was said Wukong was born from a magical rock. Wukong has unmatched superhuman strength with his 72 different magical abilities.

Saint Paul Church served as a landmark for navigators in history. The European ketches once rode anchor beside the Malay perahu or sampan , while vessels from the Straits of Malacca would take note of their landmark, Saint Paul Church. The Malacca River or Sungai Melaka still flow down to the harbour, separating the major old areas from the fort of Saint Paul. Go to the old areas when you're in Malacca !

The Sultan of Malacca was assisted by the Bendahara , the Temenggung , the Laksamana and the Syahbandar . No doubt, there is streets named after Bendahara , Temenggung , and Laksamana .

1889, a backward trace of 122 years, the waves brushed the shores near the Malacca's old jetty. The road is still working today but a few still remember where the Dunlop Rubber Company once stood. Staff of the Dunlop Rubber Company would just take less than 50 feet from the door to the coastal line. Let's see if you could share an old photograph of the old jetty !
