有一种爱,叫放手。。。

你问我对你到底有没有动心过,
我叹息。。。
此刻的我,不知道该如何回答你。。。
为了不让彼此有退后的理由,
我只好残忍一点,说:没有!
你也很残忍地回答,你也是。。。
我笑了。。。
笑我们那年可爱的童真,
笑我们那段可悲的爱情。。。

他们说,
有一种爱,叫放手。。。
所以,我们都放手了。。。

与你的一幕幕,都已成为往事了。。。
眼泪随雨坠下,渗进泥土了。。。
纪念我们枯死了的爱情。。。

回首过去,
嘴角不知觉地笑了。。。

~累~

我最近的确累了。。。
好像找一个肩膀好好靠一下。。。

学业里,
看见大家为地理的某一题老师争论了起来。。。
像一群恶狼围着一块肉。。。
那一题,你们错,
可是我对了。。。
你们有没有想过我的感受???
我和你们的差距越来越大,
我的心多痛?

还有国语节时,
一直和老师讨一分,、
即使你们已经获得了A!!!
而我呢?
我差一分就A了。。。
我都没有向你们这样把自尊丢在地上,
让人当笑话看。。。

学长团里,
上午班的那一个学生,
天天搞到下午班学长团团转,
我也随着团团转了!
我突然觉得我只是有名无实的Wakil,
真的真的很想痛哭,
你们不满意我,

别在我后面搞小动作,可以吗?

找不到一个很好的理由哭,
因为泪水早已干枯了。。。

无限期的等待?



我和你,
剩下的只有无限期的等待。。。

太了解彼此,也是种错。。。

我和你,
就是太了解彼此,
所以就是如此结束。。。
你曾说过,
我是一个比你想象中还坚强的女生。。。
不管天塌下来,
我总会冷静地去处理,
不需要你在身边。。。
其实,
就因为你在我心里,
我才有勇气去面对。。。
多少次,
为你流泪,
却不想让你知道。。。
我不想破坏我在你心中的地位。。。
就好像你为我选择的面具,
为了你,我戴上了,
游戏结束了,
却不想把它摘下。。。
我很傻,对吧?

喜欢,你为我做的任何事。。。
喜欢,看你为我担心的样子。。。
不过,一切都过去了。。。
接下来,真的是,
无限期的等待?
还是,你走你的阳光道,我走我的独木桥呢?

2010年3月18日星期四

想太多???

Case 1
ZH:我想念她咯。。。
我:那你想要我怎样帮到你?整容到像她的脸,再来安慰你?
ZH:你想太多了。。。

Case 2
我:心情不好咯。。。
LS:想一些开心的事啦。。。
我:例如?
LS:法伊?
我:不要。。。我和他不可能。。。
LS:那我呢?
我:你?你的心都装不下我了。。。
LS:你想太多了。。。

HAIZ。。。什么啦。。。同一天内,被人骂想太多两次。。。
弄到我心情更差。。。
想太多,想太少?有差别吗?
人能够限制自己想太多,或想太少吗?

还有一个,
“想我就可以了,其他的不用想。。。”

什么啦。。。想一个人,当然是,想他与和他一起的回忆嘛。。。
哪里可以分开的?
This is a PACKAGE!

有谁知道,想太多和想太少的定义在哪里?

佛团与寺庙

(Information from:http://www.mybuddhist.net)

佛团固然在我国佛教发展中扮演了主要角色,但这只单指佛教运动的推展及活力的显现。若以信仰及精神领导的角色来看,寺庙与出家众一路来都扮演了无可取代的角色。
  继程法师于一九九二年十一月卅日假首都佛教大厦主讲《僧青年的困境》时,曾提到近代大马佛教的一个特色:那就是以在家人为主的佛教团体,在整体佛教发展里,扮演了主要的角色。  无独有偶,我前年杪接受马大讲师苏姗博士的学术访谈时,也曾提出了同一观点。苏姗博士是为她与夫婿联合撰写的一篇有关近代宗教复兴的报告而访问我。当时,她对我所提出的观点颇感兴趣。在此之前,我不曾公开谈论此课题,因必须照顾到一些人的敏感性。如今,继程法师已提出在先,而此课题又是研究近代大马佛教运动史不可忽略的一部份,我想乘机把我给苏姗博士所作的分析,约略重复。
  成立佛教团体,把佛教徒组织起来,共同学佛,互相勉励,并不是近代的事。我国最早的佛教团体——槟城佛学院,即成立于一九二五年。然而佛教团体的大规模涌现,却是我国独立以後的事。独立後,我国佛教界面对政治、经济、教育、社会及各方面的变化与冲击。当时,僧人参差不齐。寺庙较少主办青年活动,导致与知识青年缺乏沟通。
  一些知识青年,在英文教育的影响下,纷纷改信洋教。这种局面,促使一些有心学佛着(尤其是受英文教育者),在各地成立佛团。这些佛团接着联合起来成立了佛青联谊会,以及较后的佛青总会。佛青总会成立后,直接与间接的带动了更多佛团的成立,展开了更多佛教活动,接引了成千上万的青年,使大马佛教呈现一片欣欣向荣的局面。这些佛团的成立,曾得到苏曼迦罗,竺摩、达摩难陀等法师的支持与鼓励。他们这麽做,显已领会到有必要通过组织性的佛团来联系群众,接引众生。
  佛团的成立,具有一定的意义与启示。它是在於肯定、辅助寺庙之发展。
  回顾历史,苏门答腊的佛教曾盛极一时,後来因偏重自修而与群众脱节,终于没落消失(见阿拉达斯:(《回教与世俗主义》)。
  后期印度佛教也是在同样情况下没落,最终被异教军完全消灭。
  日本佛教在面对西化挑战时,曾作出回应,即学术化与寺庙家庭化。不幸的,他们的办法出了问题,寺庙家庭化只能使它名存实亡,并没有克服问题。
  我国佛教比较幸运,在面对现实困境时作出了正确的回应。如今事实摆在眼前,佛团的成立不但没有否定或取代寺庙与出家众,反而加强了寺庙与出家众的角色。今天我们所看到的是:在家人都懂得礼敬三宝;佛团都懂得亲近寺庙。
  其实,佛团固然在我国佛教发展中扮演了主要角色,但这只是单指佛教活动的推展及活力的显现。若以信仰及精神领导的角度来看,寺庙与出家众一路来都扮演了无可取代的角色,如今出家人与寺庙,都能与佛团联成一气,带动整体佛教的发展,这足可喜的现象。

Kek Lok Si (Cina)

极乐寺(Kek Lok Si)位于亚依淡(AirHitam),面积12万平方米,乃是东南亚最大的佛寺组合了中国、泰国和缅甸三种不同的建筑风格。寺内五彩缤纷的建筑鳞次栉比,无论是当地华人还是游客都乐于前往。1890年初建,花了20年才完成。其后又有扩建,现在仍在不断改建。院额有“海天佛池”题词,石壁刻有许多题咏,一处花坞莲池中央大石块上刻着“勿忘故国”4字,系1900年6月康有为手笔。藏经楼里有万部经书。后院有高30米、共有7层的万佛宝塔,塔的设计十分奇妙,塔身素白,塔顶为缅甸式,中层为泰国式,而底部为中国式,外形和白蛇传中的雷峰塔相似,塔内每层都摆有大理石制的佛像及全身金箔的佛像,四大金刚和弥勒佛相当引入注目,坐、立、卧姿态各异。登上塔顶远眺市区全景及附近椰林,令人心旷神怡。

[交通信息]
由乔治城巴士总站乘坐1路或91路巴士至终点站亚依淡,下车即到。

槟城极乐寺(Kek Lok Si Temple)位于槟城州,槟岛的亚依淡(Air Itam),是马来西亚的重要佛教寺庙之一。极乐寺建于1893年,寺庙依山而建,占地12公顷。
极乐寺的建设由当时任椰脚街广福宫的主持妙莲法师所启发。妙莲法师原本来自福建涌泉寺,他曾于1885年到槟城州筹募基金修建福州龟山法堂。2年后,出任椰脚街广福宫的主持。槟城极乐寺最先建立的是大士殿,5年后相继增建天王殿、大雄殿、藏经阁、东西客堂及放生池等。[1]
1930年, 极乐寺内楼高7层的万佛塔正式建成。此的底部,中部和顶部分别采纳了中国泰国缅甸寺庙的设计,综合了3国寺庙的建筑风格。2002年, 一座30.2公尺高的观音铜像建成。
槟城极乐寺放生池附近的山壁上刻有清末民初名士之墨迹。如果详细看这些题咏,可以发觉早期从中国南来的文人和同盟会革命志士所题的字,这些作品包括康有为所题的‘勿忘故国’四字。可惜一些题咏已因雨水侵蚀而没法辨认。极乐寺内的“ 大雄宝殿”匾额是清朝光绪皇帝御赐和题字。另一匾额“海天佛地”是慈禧太后题写。
[2]==开山住持== 妙莲法师 (1844-1907),福建归化人,年轻时经常出外经商,32岁时出家。光绪年间,八国联军攻破北京,迫使光绪皇帝慈禧太后出走。经过李鸿章的谈判,清朝政府被迫签下不平等条约及承担“ 庚子赔款”。妙莲和尚为了表示僧侣爱国之心,将募化来的数万银元献给清朝政府。光绪三十年(1904年),慈禧太后特召妙莲法师进京,御赐《龙藏经》和法衣,并称“ 钦命方丈”。极乐寺内的“ 大雄宝殿”和“海天佛地”匾额也是当时御赐。

槟城极乐寺简介
极乐寺是南洋最著名之佛寺,位於槟榔屿东北角黑水村之鹤山上,占地约三十亩,市内有公共汽车川行其间,甚为方便。光绪十五年春,始由福州鼓山寺僧妙莲和尚开山,偕来僧人德如本忠遂向各方募化,陆续兴建,到一九二零年乃告全部落成,一九三零年举行佛像开光大典。
该寺殿阁依山建筑,形势天然。自山麓至山门有石级数百级,左旁尽是时饰古玩之类小店,琳琅满目,美不胜收。 拾级而上,首至大士殿,内供观音大士圣像。出大士殿侧后便是放生池;下面龟池,内有大小不等乌龟数百只;上面鱼池,群鱼或游或潜或跃出水面,天机活泼。后端花园,有四时盆景,中央有喷泉,景色俱佳,游人喜摄影留念,拾级左转,进入天王殿,殿中奉“笑佛儿”-弥勒菩萨,旁列四大天王威盛有加。天王殿后,便是大雄宝殿,殿之中央,奉三尊大佛像,旁奉十八罗汉,香云缭绕,善男信女多在此膜拜,殿前有钟鼓楼。当晨钟暮鼓响起时,不觉又一日矣!殿之后层是藏经楼,为僧人阅经处,后山古木参天,不时鸟啭枝头,禅鸣柳上,暑气全消。出大殿左去,则见万佛宝塔耸入天际,凡七层,内有卧佛两尊,塔壁满嵌佛像,游人花些香火钱,便可登临。凭栏达眺,心旷神怡,尘累顿息,俯瞰槟城廛如在几席间矣。
开山住持——妙莲和尚
妙莲法师原藉福建,归化人,生於西历一八四四年,少时从商在外,师事亲至孝,年卅二岁,省亲时,父遂命礼鼓山奇堂和尚出家。一八八五年托 南洋群岛,一八八七年游经槟城,本城侨绅,器其德业,请住持广福宫(即今观音亭)。
莲公留槟城时,以本地侨风敦厚,奉佛虔诚,又因广福宫地处闹市,有觅地栖禅之意,策杖寻幽,遂在亚依淡谋得鹤山寺地,几经艰苦擘划,佐之者为得如、本忠、善庆诸师。历十五寒暑,于一九零五年落成,完成现今极乐寺之壮观。一九零七年旋返福建,不幸在丁末年七月十二日竟以微疾圆寂崇熙寺,世寿六十三,戒腊二十九,荼毗后,并分有骨灰藏之本山海会塔,名山道场。后人游此者,当佑和尚之无量功德矣。
白圣大法师简介
白圣大法师,现年六十八岁。原藉湖北,后移居上海。年十八,以夙植胜因,天赋善缘。遂于陕西大香出家;迨二十,又在安徽九华山受戒。亲近诸方长老大德,慧业精进,参禅研教,达二十余载。而住持佛教寺庙,创办佛教教育,亦有二十年以上。大师戒德庄严,著述宏博,文成锦绣,宣利世梵音;语结珠玑,阐迷途之觉路,宜乎淄素同钦,中外共仰也!

大士殿此殿在极乐寺藏底层,建于一八九一年,改建于一九零四年,一九一四年扩建更兴完善,此殿以供观音菩萨为主。
放生池放生池建于一九零五年,下为龟池,上为鱼池,佛教信徒以众生平等慈护之心,以放生为善事乐事。
龟池池中数百只龟皆为信徒所放,游人到此多买蕹菜抛戊池中喂之,亦乐事也。放生者多选在佛菩萨诞辰或节日举行之。
鱼池龟池上端即鱼池,游人至此亦多购饼干而喂之,群鱼争食,颇有临渊羡鱼之感。
韬光亭韬光亭又名状元亭,因亭中有巨石,上刻嘉靖六年状元罗洪先之醒世诗歌,罗状元考中状元,为官数载后,乃于鼓山出家为僧,晦迹韬光,亭遂以为名焉,其诗歌深入浅出,寓意清远,读之令人胸次洒然。
万佛宝塔前岩石墨迹岩石上刻有清末民初名士之墨迹甚多,笔力苍劲古朴,令人发思古之幽情。
花坞坞内花卉,皆为四季不谢之盆景,无量寿佛石在花坞之後端,石之正面刻有“无量寿佛”四字,石之侧面有“小蓬莱”三字,坞之前面为一圆形水池,池中衬以一线喷泉,景致幽美,诚有如历蓬莱仙境之感,游客亦多在此摄影留念。
弥勒菩萨弥勒菩萨笑口常开,又名“笑佛儿”香客一跨进殿门,即见“笑佛儿”,无形中给你一种愉快的印象。他将在人寿八万岁时从兜率天下降生人间,继释迦牟尼佛在龙华树下成佛,化渡众生。
中国自南北朝以来,菩萨经常化现一个出家人背著一个布袋,终日奔走,劝化人家信佛。

Kek Lok Si

Temple (Penang Hokkien for "Temple of Supreme Bliss" or "Temple of Sukhavati"; Simplified Chinese: 极乐寺; Traditional Chinese: 極樂寺) is a Buddhist temple situated in Air Itam in Penang and is one of the best known temples on the island. It is the largest Buddhist temple in Southeast Asia.
Mahayana Buddhism and traditional Chinese rituals blend into a harmonious whole, both in the temple architecture and artwork as well as in the daily activities of worshippers.

History
The construction of the temple began in 1890 and was inspired by the chief monk of the Goddess of Mercy Temple at Pitt Street. With the support of the consular representative of China in Penang, the project received the sanction of the Emperor Guangxu, who bestowed a tablet and gift of 70,000 volumes of the Imperial Edition of the Buddhist Sutras.
The primary benefactor of the Kek Lok Si Temple in 1906 was none other than Kapitan Chung Keng Quee.
In 1930, the seven storey main pagoda of the temple or the Pagoda of 10,000 Buddhas, was completed. This pagoda combines a Chinese octagonal base with a middle tier of Thai design, and a Burmesecrown; reflecting the temple's embrace of both Mahayana and Theravada Buddhism.
In 2002, a 30.2m bronze statue of the Kuan Yin was completed and opened to public. It replaced the previous white plaster Kuan Yin statue which was damaged due to a fire a few years earlier. The bronze statue is located on the hillside above the pagoda while the head of the previous statue which survived the fire is preserved and placed on the right hand corner of the new statue.


A temple in the making
As the fairly recent date mentioned above may suggest, the temple is still growing. Generous donations from the affluent Chinese community allow the construction of additional buildings. The current focus is to create an ornate shelter for the Kuan Yin statue. 16 carved dragon pillars are being built, the concentric roof will be inspired by classical Ming architecture, reminiscent of the roof of Prayer Hall for Good Harvest in the Temple of Heaven in Beijing.

Visiting the Temple
Most visitors approach the temple as they ascend a stairway, roofs of which provide shelter to a multitude of shops selling souvenirs and other - mostly secular - commodities. They pass by a so-called Liberation Pond, following the buddhist tradition of merit-making, turtles may be released into freedom, albeit a limited one.
The temple itself consists of several large halls for assembly and prayer, here, statues of Buddha, various Bodhisattvas as well as Chinese gods are being venerated. Intricate woodwork, often brightly painted and a plethora of lanterns add to the visual impression.
There is an inclined lift to carry pilgrims and visitors further uphill. On the elevated platform, you can find a pond filled with Koi and the towering statue of Kuan Yin, Goddess of Mercy, which can also be regarded as Avalokitheshvara, Bodhisattva of Universal Compassion.

Annual Events
The temple is a focal point of festivals of the Chinese community in Penang. The Chinese New Year celebrations are particularly impressive. For 30 days following Chinese New Year, the temple remains open until late at night whilst thousands of lights turn the scenery into a sea of light.


THE magnificent Kek Lok Si temple will soon see an added attraction – a landscaped rock garden.
Temple trustee Datuk Steven Ooi said the state government had earmarked a 2.8ha plot of land at the foot of the Air Itam hill for the project.
“We are in the midst of purchasing the land from the state so that we can start work this year.
“The project includes additional parking lots as well as a tea pavilion for tourists to rest and take in the beauty of the rock garden,” he said, after the temple lighting ceremony on Sunday.
He said the temple was expecting more than one million visitors during the Chinese New Year period.
“There will be Rela members from the first to the eighth night of the festival to help direct traffic at night,” he said.
During the ceremony, more than 10,000 lanterns and 230,000 decorative bulbs were lit after temple abbot Rev Seck Jit Heng received the Malaysia Book of Records certificates for the tallest pavilion at 89.23m, the tallest bronze Goddess of Mercy (Kuan Yin) statue at 33.67m, and the tallest granite pillars at 42.24m.
Night-time visits to Kek Lok Si will only be allowed during the first 28 days of the Chinese lunar calendar (Feb 14 to March 13).
From now until Feb 12, the temple is only open from 8.30am to 5.30pm.
From the eve to the third day of Chinese New Year, the temple is open from 7pm to 7am.
From the fourth day until the Chap Goh Meh on Feb 28, visits are allowed from 7am to midnight and from March 1 to 13, the times are from 7pm to 10pm. During the ceremony to switch on the lights, the temple presented RM300,000 to the Malaysian Buddhist Institute, Hui Yin Seah and Pu Ai Buddhist Community Service Centre.
“The donation is for their building fund and to help them conduct activities to promote Buddhism,” he said.
State Religious Affairs, Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Committee Committee chairman Abdul Malik Abul Kassim, who was also present, described various races visiting each other’s religious place of worship as a “good thing”.
“As a Muslim visiting a temple, I don’t think there’s anything wrong because my faith remains strong and unshaken — even when I am on holiday, I visit many historic churches.
“Such visits should be encouraged because it helps us understand each other’s cultural and religious practices better,” he said.
In his speech, Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said it was crucial to have a “shared and inclusive society”.
“This means that we must allow democratic participation by everyone; respect diversity and individual dignity; equal opportunity; and prohibit any form of discrimination.
“Federal and state governments, non-governmental organisations and religious institutions must be rational when handling controversial incidents,” he said.

KLIA
Kuala Lumpur International Airport commonly known as KLIA is one of Southeast Asia's major aviation hubs. It is also Malaysia's main international airport. It is situated in the Sepang district, in the south of the state of Selangor, about 50 kilometres (31 mi) from the capital city, Kuala Lumpur. KLIA was built at a cost of $3.5 billion.
Kuala Lumpur International Airport is capable of handling 35 million passengers and 1.2 million tonnes of cargo a year in its current phase. As of 2007, it was ranked as the 13th busiest airport in the world by international passenger traffic, and is the 7th busiest international airport in Asia. The complex handled 26,938,970 passengers in 2007, a 13.0% increase over 2005. In 2008, Kuala Lumpur International Airport handled 667,495 metric tonnes of cargo, which is a 2.2% increase compared to 2007. The increase in cargo volume made Kuala Lumpur International Airport the 27th busiest airport by cargo traffic. Also, KLIA was awarded a prestigious 4-star ranking by Skytrax, along with Zürich Airport and Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.
Petronas Twins Tower
The Petronas Twin Towers were the tallest buildings in the world until Taipei 101 was completed in 2004, as measured to the top of their structural components (spires, but not antennas). Spires are considered integral parts of the architectural design of buildings, to which changes would substantially change the appearance and design of the building, whereas antennas may be added or removed without such consequences. The Petronas Twin Towers remain the tallest twin buildings in the world.The Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower) and the World Trade Center towers were each constructed with 110 occupied floors – 22 more than the Petronas Twin Towers’ 88 floors. The Willis Tower and the World Trade Center’s roofs and highest occupied floors substantially exceeded the height of the roof and highest floors of the Petronas Twin Towers. The Willis Tower’s tallest antenna is 75 m (246 ft) taller than the Petronas Twin Towers’ spires. However, in accordance to CTBUH regulations and guidelines,the antennas of the Willis Tower were not counted as part of its architectural features. The spires on the Petronas Towers are included in the height since they are not antenna masts. Therefore, the Petronas Twin Towers exceed the official height of the Willis Tower by 10 m, but the Willis Tower has more floors and much higher square footage. Compared to others they are two feet tall

KL Tower
The Kuala Lumpur Tower (officially known as Menara Kuala Lumpur; referred later as KL Tower) is a tall tower located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Its construction was finished in 1994. It is used for communication purposes and features an antenna that reaches 421 m (1,381 ft), which currently makes it the fifth tallest freestanding tower in the world. The roof of the pod is at 335 m (1,099 ft). The rest of the tower below has a stairwell and an elevator to reach the upper area, which also contains a revolving restaurant, providing diners a beautiful view of the city. Races are organised yearly where participants race up the stairs to the top. The tower also acts as the Islamic falak observatory to look for the crescent moon to mark the beginning of Muslim month of Ramadhan, Syawal, and Zulhijjah, to celebrate fasting month of Ramadhan, Hari Raya Aidilfitri and Aidiladha.

Tugu Negara
Tugu Negara, literally the "National Monument" in Malay, is a sculpture that commemorates those who died in Malaysia's struggle for freedom, principally against the Japanese occupation during World War II and the Malayan Emergency , which lasted from 1948 until 1960. It is located in the Federal capital, Kuala Lumpur. The Malaysian Houses of Parliament is situated near the monument.
The monument depicts a group of soldiers holding the Malaysian national flag, the Jalur Gemilang, aloft. Each of the bronze figures symbolizes leadership, suffering, unity, vigilance, strength, courage and sacrifice.
Every year on July 31, Hari Pahlawan (Heroes Day), the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, the Prime Minister and heads of military and the police would pay their respects to the fallen heroes by laying garlands at the monument.
First National Monument
The original national monument was not the one in the form of human figures but was a cenotaph that was situated in the middle of a roundabout. The British administration set up the first monument, a 10m flat grass-covered ground to commemorate the wars and honour the fallen heroes from World War I, World War II and the Malayan Emergency.
It was moved to the present site during the construction of a flyover in 1964 connecting Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin and the Parliament roundabout. Therefore the original name for Jalan Tugu, where the Tugu Negara is currently situated, was Cenotaph Road.
On the monument, it is written “To Our Glorious Dead with dates of the First World War (1914-1918), Second World War (1939-1945) and the Emergency (1948-1960).
Second National Monument
The monument was later replaced with the Tugu Negara, an idea mooted by Malaysia's first Prime Minister Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj and was commissioned in 1963.
The huge tall bronze figures of soldiers standing and supporting their fallen comrades, which is opposite Lake Gardens, are the work of sculptor Felix de Weldon, who also did Washington’s Iwo Jima Monument and it is regarded as the largest bronze monument grouping in the world.
The Tugu Negara was completed and officially opened on February 8, 1966, by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong. It was proclaimed a memorial park dedicated to the 11,000 people who died during the 12-year Malayan Emergency (1948-1960). Thereafter, a wreath-laying ceremony takes place at the monument every July 31 on Warriors Day.
Constructed in 1966, the monument is 15 meters (49.21 feet) tall, made of bronze and was designed by Austrian sculptor Felix de Weldon, who was also responsible for the famed USMC War Memorial in Virginia, United States.
The granite base of the monument bears only inscriptions in English with Roman script and Malay with Jawi script:
"Dedicated to the heroic fighters in the cause of peace and freedom,
May the blessing of Allah be upon them"
On 27 August 1975, the monument suffered extensive damage due to an explosion set off by a communist terrorist. It has since been restored to its original state on 11 May 1977. A fence was then erected and the complex was declared a protected area between sunset and dawn. Every day at dusk, a soldier raises the national flag and lowers it at dawn.

Langkawi
Langkawi officially known as Langkawi, the Jewel of Kedah (Langkawi Permata Kedah[1]) is an archipelago of 99 islands (an extra 5 temporary islands are revealed at low tide [1]) in the Andaman Sea, some 30 km off the mainland coast of northwestern Malaysia. The islands are a part of the state of Kedah, which is adjacent to the Thai border. On July 15, 2008, Sultan Abdul Halim of Kedah had consented to the change of name to Langkawi Permata Kedah in conjunction with his Golden Jubilee Celebration. By far the largest of the islands is the eponymous Pulau Langkawi with a population of some 64,792, the only other inhabited island being nearby Pulau Tuba. Langkawi is also an administrative district with the town of Kuah as the capital and largest town. Langkawi is a duty-free island[2].

Langkawi, a cluster of 99 islands separated from mainland Malaysia by the Straits of Malacca, is a district of the state of Kedah in Northern Malaysia and lies approximately 51km west of Kedah. The total land mass of the islands is 47,848 hectares, while the main island of Langkawi itself has a total of 32,000 hectares. The main island spans about 25km from north to south and slightly more for east and west. The coastal areas consist of flat, alluvial plains punctuated with limestone ridges. Two-thirds of the island is dominated by forest-covered mountains, hills and natural vegetation.
The island's oldest geological formation, Gunung Matchincang, was the first part of South-East Asia to rise from the seabed in the Cambrian period more than half a billion years ago. The oldest part of the formation is observable at Teluk Datai to the north-west of the island, where the exposed outcrop consists of mainly sandstone (quartzite) in the upper parts and shale and mudstone in the lower parts of the sequence.
Climate and Weather
A sunny, hot and humid, tropical climate with an average annual temperature of about 32 degrees Celsius. The rainy season is during August/September, although there are occasional showers throughout the year.
Pangkor
Pulau Pangkor is an island off the coast of Perak in north-west peninsular Malaysia, reached by ferry from Lumut (a small coastal town that links to Ipoh, or from Sitiawan). It has a land area of only 8 square kilometers, and a population of approximately 25,000 islanders. It is heavily promoted as a low-key tourist destination by the Malaysian government, but fishing and fish products remain major industries.
Historically, Pangkor was a refuge for local fishermen, merchants and pirates. In the 17th century, the Dutch built a fort in an effort to control the Perak tin trade. In 1874, it was the location of a historic treaty between the British government and a contender for the Perak throne (The Pangkor Treaty), which began the British colonial domination of the Malay Peninsula.
Pangkor is famous for its fine beaches and a mix of low budget to 5 star accommodations. Teluk Nipah and Coral Bay on the north west of the island is extremely popular with travellers from Europe. The quality of sand in the Pasir Bogak Beach is far superior to that elsewhere on the island. The sand is golden brown, quite similar to most leading prime beaches. There are a few resorts in Teluk Nipah or Nipah Bay.
Since the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami in Indonesia, Thailand and to a lesser extent the West Coast of Malaysia in December 2004, there have been fewer local tourists visiting Pangkor.
In 2006, a biotechnology centre, a joint venture of Global Hi-Q Malaysia S/B and Hi-Q Bio-Tech International (Taiwan) Ltd began operations with initial investments of RM100million (USD30m). Their operations include fish farming and aquaculture, and the first harvest is expected in 2009.
