"In the present work the author discusses the characteristics of the contents of Malay folk beliefs. Besides Islam, which is the professed religion of the Malays, the folks in the kampung (village) still subscribe to the belief elements which they have inherited from their distant past. The author argues that these different elements which are derived from the animistic and Hindu-Buddhisitc period of the Malay history may seem to be disparate, but they are well-integrated in the world-view of the Malay folk beleifs".--BOOKJACKET.

Traditional Malay beliefs and practices - the folk-religion of the Malays divorced from its Islamic overlay - has held a fascination for Europeans and generated a body of literature to which Annandale, Skeat and Winstedt number amongst the distinguished contributors. In this study the author attempts to identify some order and coherence out of the vast labyrinth of concepts, superstitions and observances which form the skein of Malay magic, and takes an analytical approach to establish some of the leading characteristics of the Malay world-view. In doing so, he reveals a coherent order encompassing the visible and invisible worlds and the men, plants, animals, souls and spirits that inhabit them, which sheds light not only on the beliefs themselves but also on a type of cultural pattern especially suited to situations in which cultural traditions are mixed.

In this book it is our purpose to show how Islam sprang up in pagan soil and retained many old Arabian beliefs in spite of its vigorous monotheism. Wherever Mohammedism went it introduced old or adopted new superstitions. The result has been that as background of the whole ritual and even in the creed of popular Islam, animism has conquered. - Preface.

During the half century following Malaysian independence in 1957, the country’s National Museum underwent a transformation that involved a shift from serving as a repository for displays of mounted butterflies and stuffed animals and accounts of the colonial experience to an overarching national narrative focused on culture and history. These topics are sensitive and highly disputed in Malaysia, and many of the country’s museums contest the narrative that underlies displays in the National Museum, offering alternative treatments of subjects such as Malaysia's pre-Islamic past, the history and heritage of the Melaka sultanate, memories of the Japanese Occupation, national cultural policy, and cultural differences between the Federation’s constituent states. In Museums, History and Culture in Malaysia, Abu Talib Ahmad examines museum displays throughout the country, and uses textual analysis of museum publications along with interviews with serving and retired museum officers to evaluate changing approaches to exhibits and the tensions that they express, or sometimes create. In addition to the National Museum, he considers museums and memorials in Penang, Kedah, Perak, Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, Sabah, Kelantan and Terengganu, as well as memorials dedicated to national heroes (such as former Prime Ministers Tunku Abdul Rahman and Tun Abdul Razak Hussein, and film and recording artist P. Ramlee). The book offers rich and fascinating insights into differing versions of the country’s character and historical experience, and efforts to reconcile these sometimes disparate accounts.
