Malaysian Postcrossers are really cool! I am saying this not that because I am one, but they are really great at making me happy :) I love my fellow Malaysian Postcrossers in the forum. There has been this MY-tag in our Bahasa Melayu community forum where we can tag each other and send local postcard! And don’t be surprised if I tell you, in my Postcrossing collection Malaysian postcards are the 3rd most received after Finland and USA. Yep, even they beat Germany and the Netherlands! LOL. I’m so proud of you, Malaysian postcrossers! Here’s few of their cards I would really love to share, and others can be seen in this Flickr set.
This is Kelantanese Rebana Ubi (giant drum) from Aliah. I live in Kelantan myself but never found this card, sigh. This is an old image probably taken in the Gelanggang Seni (Culture Field) here in Kota Bharu. You can come and see the Rebana show regularly held in here.
Melaka multiviews from Newrule, showing Malacca Fort, Malacca house, Bullock carts and the cultural meseum. Oh if you must know Melaka has been listed in UNESCO Heritage Site since last year. Aliah and I visited Melaka with her in 2007 and it was great!
Ketupat sent me this card with Rambutan fruits on a bike. Do you have Rambutan in your country? It’s really juicy and sweet – gotta love it!
Art card from Chat_noir with lovely painting showing Malay girl. I don’t know where he found this kind of cards, as I hardly find art cards in here or KL when I was there. Or maybe I didn’t search hard enough.
Ubudiah Mosque from Charlie_dale. This is one of the most beautiful mosques in Malaysia, I can be sure of this because I’ve been there once! Postcardswise, this mosque has got more of its pictures printed as postcards than any other mosque in Malaysia.
This is a squid! Giant squid! Or actually, it writes here Broadclub cuttlefish. Maybe in Sabah underwater you can find this creature. Borneo postcards are really something and we’re lucky to have Gundohingnick there to send us postcards :)
HAHAHA. Reggie Lee comic cards are my favorite! Though it’s real hard to find them in my place. Thanks Rosnah for sending this piece to me. Poor these jobless rockers.. “No Lepaking” is (maybe) Malaysian English for No Loitering. You know.. sit in a group somewhere doing practically nothing.
