TOKOH-TOKOH DALAM SEJARAH NEGARA


"GEOGRAFI SENTIASA BERUBAH, SEJARAH SENTIASA BERTAMBAH"


I came from Arts Stream School. Besides learning Malay Literature (where you have to know how to analyse the novel and book of poems), History is one of the compulsory subjects. Studying history had it own complexity compared to Maths and Science subjects. I hate Chemistry, that's why I refused to go to Science Stream.


In history, you have to memorise many names, places and dates. Example; if you learn about the history Malacca, you have to remember all the Sultans and their contributions in their reign. Start from the opening of Malacca by Parameswara (later converted to Islam and changed his name to Sultan Iskandar Shah) then Sultan Ahmad, Sultan Muhammad, Sultan Ibrahim, Sultan Mudzaffar Shah, Sultan Mansor Shah, Sultan Alauddin Riayat Shah and Sultan Mahmud Shah....then Malacca seized by Portuguese, Dutch, British etc-etc..... go to Straits Settlement (Penang, Singapore and Malacca), followed by the interference of British into Malay States (Perak, Selangor, NS and Pahang), you also have to remember the names of British Residents such as JWW Birch, Hugh Low, Frank Sweetenham, Hugh Clifford and etc. Who is Datuk Maharaja Lela and Datuk Sagor. When and what is Pangkor Treaty all about? etc-etc. Huhhhh...


That is Malaysian history, how about China history, you got to remember the name of all the Chinese dynasties such as Ming, Han, Chu, Yuan, Shan etc and the name of the Emperors...the one I can remember well is Shi-Huang Ti (the man who lead the construction of Great Wall of China). In China, who is Lao-Tze?, Kung Fu-Tze?. In India, who is Siddharta Gautama Buddha, who is Asoka? who is Akbar? Shah Jehan? Jehangir? Aurangzeb? and who is Mahatma Ghandi? who is Pandit Jawaherlal Nehru? who is Ali Jinnah? Toink, toink, toinkkkkk......


Those were in Asia. How about European history, Industrial Revolution, French Revolution, Russian Revolution, and many many more....


So, do not ever ever think that, History is an easy subject. Please do not down grade Art Stream students as second class citizen. Look! who are the Secretary General and 'PTDs' in almost all Ministries, since our independent day? All Art Stream graduates!


Here, I am presenting some of my 'Knowledge Collections' for your reading. Reading only, You do not have to memorise.
