Assalamualaikum w.b.t.
How are you today? We hope that you are in a pink of health :) Sorry for late post because we were busy with all the assignments but Thank God, next week gonna be our Midsem Break *huh*. what a relieved :D
Okay here we go, we gonna to have some introduction about our topic. So, we had given 3 types of different culture. They are Brunei, Minang and India.*WOW* They are really differed from their mother-tongue languages, culture, weather, foods and festivals. *Its interesting right?*
This is Brunei's flag. From we had found and read, The yellow field represents the sultan of Brunei, which is same goes to the Southern Asia like Malaysia, Indonesia as well as Thailand. Yellow is representing the color of royal.
The crest consists of a crescent (symbolising Islam) facing upwards, joined with a parasol (symbolising monarchy), with hands on the sides (signifying the benevolence of the government). On the crescent is the national motto in Arabic: “Always render service with God's guidance” (الدائمون المحسنون بالهدى). Below this is a banner inscribed with Brunei Darussalam (‘Brunei, the Abode of Peace’).
The black and white stripes represent Brunei's chief ministers who were once joint-regents and then – after the sultan came of age – senior advisors: the Pengiran Bendahara (First Minister, symbolised by a slightly thicker white stripe) and the Pengiran Pemancha (Second Minister, governing foreign affairs, symbolised by black)
On 26th January 2002, the Indian flag code was modified after several years of independence. The National Flag of India is a horizontal rectangular tricolour of deep saffron, white and India green; with the Ashoka Chakra, a 24-spoke wheel, in navy blue at its centre. It was adopted in its present form during a meeting of the Constituent Assembly held on 22 July 1947, when it became the official flag of the Dominion of India.
There are some rules and regulations upon how to fly the flag, based on the 26 January 2002 legislation. These include the following:
The Do's:
- The National Flag may be hoisted in educational institutions (schools, colleges, sports camps, scout camps, etc.) to inspire respect for the Flag. An oath of allegiance has been included in the flag hoisting in schools.
- A member of public, a private organization or an educational institution may hoist/display the National Flag on all days and occasions, ceremonial or otherwise consistent with the dignity and honour of the National Flag.
- Section 2 of the new code accepts the right of all private citizens to fly the flag on their premises.
The Don'ts:
- The flag cannot be used for communal gains, drapery, or clothes. As far as possible, it should be flown from sunrise to sunset, irrespective of the weather.
- The flag cannot be intentionally allowed to touch the ground or the floor or trail in water. It cannot be draped over the hood, top, and sides or back of vehicles, trains, boats or aircraft.
- No other flag or bunting can be placed higher than the flag. Also, no object, including flowers or garlands or emblems can be placed on or above the flag. The tricolour cannot be used as a festoon, rosette or bunting.
For the last flag. EH, that one is Indonesia flag, isnt it? yeahh! correct. Im pretty sure that some of us already knew that Minang is a group of ethnic of indigenous people to Minangkabau Highlands which came from West Sumatera, Indonesia. that's why we put Indonesia flag here :) hehe. However, nowadays, Minang people had scattered in Malaysia, Netherlands and also Singapore (credit to: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minangkabau_people).
There are a few related ethnic groups to Minang, which are Malay, Mandailing and Kerinci. And the language used Minangkabau, Indonesian and Malay too. *woahh. that's why it quite difficult to differentiate them with Malays right?* Other than that, most of Minang people are Muslims.
The Minangkabau are famous for their dedication to education, as well as the widespread diaspora of their men throughout southeast Asia, the result being that Minangs have been disproportionately successful in gaining positions of economic and political power throughout the region. Surprisingly, the co-founder of the Republic of Indonesia, Mohammad Hatta, was a Minang, as were the first President of Singapore, Yusof bin Ishak, and the first Supreme Head of State or Yang di-Pertuan Agong of Malaysia, Tuanku Abdul Rahman.
So there, some of introduction for our course. therefore, with a big heart, we really hope that, we able to accomplish this project very well. thanks everyone for spending your time to read our post. *muahxoxo*
