The Neon Man (part II)

Here are some more examples of Chris Bracey’s fantastic neon artworks.

When he first started making neon signs commercially, Chris approached one of the seedy strip clubs that were once packed into London’s Soho area and offered to create something special that would improve their awful, cheap signage. He chose the name too and ‘The Pink Pussy Cat Club’ was born. From there he was commissioned to create almost every club sign in the area.

Malay is a major language of the Austronesian family. It is the national language of Indonesia, Malaysia, and Brunei, and it is one of four official languages of Singapore. It is spoken natively by 40 million peopleacross the Malacca Strait, including the coasts of the Malay Peninsula of Malaysia and the eastern coast of Sumatra in Indonesia, and has been established as a native language of part of western coastal Sarawak and West Kalimantan in Borneo.

As theNational Language of several states, Standard Malay has various official names. In Singapore and Brunei it is called Bahasa Melayu (Malay language); in Malaysia, Bahasa Malaysia (Malaysian language); and in Indonesia, Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian language) and is designated the Bahasa Persatuan/Pemersatu (“unifying language/lingua franca”). However, in areas of central to southern Sumatra where the language is indigenous, Indonesians refer to it as Bahasa Melayu and consider it one of their regional languages.

Standard Malay, also called Court Malay, was the literary standard of the pre-colonial Malacca and Johor Sultanates, and so the language is sometimes called Malacca, Johor, or Riau Malay (or various combinations of those names) to distinguish it from the various other Malayan languages, though it has no connection to the Malay dialect of the Riau Islands. According to Ethnologue 16, several of the Malayan varieties they currently list as separate languages, including the Orang Asli varieties of Peninsular Malay, are so closely related to standard Malay that they may prove to be dialects. (These are listed with question marks in the table at right.) There are also several Malay-based creole languages which are based on a lingua franca derived from Classical Malay, as well as Makassar Malay, which appears to be a mixed language.

It is written in Jawi, and Malay has often been described as the ‘lingua franca’ of the area.

Malay language is an Austronesian language, spoken by the Malay people and people of other ethnic groups who reside in the Malay Peninsula, southern Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore, central eastern Sumatra, the Riau islands and parts of the coast of Borneo.

Malay is the official language of Indonesia, Malaysia, Brunei, and East Timor, and one of four official languages of Singapore.

The history of the Malay language can be divided into four periods: Old Malay, the Transitional Period, the Malacca Period, and Late Modern Malay. 

Historically, Malay has been written using various types of script. The Malay language is now normally written using the Latin alphabet, called Rumi, which is official in Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore. In Brunei, however, both Rumi and Jawi are co-official.

A discussion of malay language by Dr Awang Sariyan on the Malay language as the Malay Archipelago’s lingua franca, and its diminishing role as the language of knowledge. 

It was also the language of knowledge, philosophy, law, civics, arts and history. Malay language has lost its distinction as a language of unity, knowledge and communication. It has, consequently, lost its dominance. INCREASINGLY CAST ASIDE.

FAR DIFFERENT from before and after about malay language.

THERE IS POTENTIAL to be improve.
