Untold History : Taman Syorrrgaaa Alkaff Yang Hilang

Almost 100 years ago, diselatan tanahair.. terdapat satu taman yang amat indah gemilang


Taman seluas 19 ekar tersebut kepunyaan keluarga Alkaff, the prominent Arab traders in Singapore.  

Taman Syorrrgaaa 




Taman tersebut dibina utk keluarga Alkaff pada 1927, and then open for public in 1929. Landscapenya bercirikan Taman Jepun seperti di Istana Besar Johor Bahru.. AND.. architectnya jugak dari diimport khas dari Jepun.  Kesemua bukit-bukit dan tasik ditaman itu adalah manmade.. mengikut citarasa Alkaff.  

In it heyday, it become centre of attraction in Singapore.. semua penulis British terkenal pada zaman itu selalu memuji taman alkaff dalam karya mereka, much sough than botanical Garden and more beautiful than Taman Istana Tyersall milik HH Albert Baker (which is abandoned in 1905).  

Vanishing Garden


Taman tersebut terselamat semasa pendudukan dan bom jepun.. kerana pihak Jepun suka akan kejepunan taman itu.

Tapi, lepas perang... Taman itu terbiar.. lalu keluarga Alkaff terpaksa menjualnya utk menyambung perniagaannya yg kerugian sebab perang.


Dibeli oleh Sennet utk dijadikan residential housing.  from Period 1949 sehingga 1964.. saki baki taman tersebut masih ada... then,  pada 1964.... bukit-bukit taman itu ditarah rata dan digunakan utk menimbus tasik tersebut bagi laluan pembinaan sebuah Sekolah dan Padang

Sejak itu.. Taman Syorrrgaaa ini hilang tanpa dapat dikesan.

Untold History : Kesah Khalifah dan Khutbah Jumaat

Komen2 kotor ni dari www.cari.com.my yg di dokong oleh pencacai2 PR bagi menjatuhkan Sistem Beraja Kerajaan Melayu di Malaysia...

Kononnyeeee...... kite ugame Islam.. tapi doa kan orang yg perangai bukan mcm orang Islam.. lebih kurang gitu laa akal totok cube menyampaikan...





Aku pun gelak guling2 bile dengar... so true.. sesetengah dari kite akalnye pendek dari yang lain.... tapi orang2 mcm ni laa yg dipuje2 dan disorak ramai oleh orang2 yg berakal pendek yang seangkatan dengan lainnnyeeee...

Sini aku cakap sikit kesah 'Khutbah Jumaat' dan kaitannye dgn Sultan

CALIPH TRADITION

Membaca khutbah... between 2 khutbah ade doa attribute to Sultan adalah tradisi kerajaan Khalifah Islam..... diwarisi daripada kerajaan Abbasid, Fatimids... dan terus ke Uthmaniyah....

Hampir kesemua kerajaan Khalifah2 Islam menggunakan khutbah utk mendoakan Khalifah2nye.. tak kire sape.. named it.. daripada yang Abd. Rahman Agung... sampai ke Timerlane Yang Kejam... semua mempraktikkan tradisi yang sama... - mendoakan Khalifah



takde kaitan pun dorang perangai alim ke jahanam ke.. cume orang2 melayu liberal jee yang anggap klu doa mesti kene jadik alim 

PIONEER

While dekat sini pulaak...... tradisi mendoakan Khalifah.. pertame kali digunepakai semase pemerntahan HH Albert Baker of Johore... di sebut nama khalifah.. bersama2 dengan penaung nya khalifah Uthmaniah masa itu.. 






sehingga dipinda pada tahun 1924 sejak jatuh kerajaan Khalifah Uthamaniah.. tetapi dikekalkan bagi Sultan2 Negeri Johor.. sebagai penyambung tradisi khalifah itu.

Dan.. seterusnya ditiru oleh negeri2 Melayu lain

Untold History : Secret of Johore State Emblem Decoded

Imagine this... If you working with Johor State Government, and in 1 unlucky day you are mistakenly wrote the prefix or name of your Director.. let alone Sultan himself... much more worst if you mistakenly drew the wrong State Emblem.. I quite sure you'll be vanished from the State.. 

But not in this case.. person whom redraw the Johor State Emblem was free, infact, he might enjoy his retirement by now.. because, none of the Johore state officers aware of their mistake done for more than 100 years ago.... 

Now... THE POPULAR BELIEF :

These is the Standard Johor emblem.. used in Official Letterhead, Government Offices and Websites.. 





even in JB State HQ..




While... these are the ORIGINAL TIGER Emblem used sometimes between 1886 to 1930's:








See the differences????????

Now.. look closely :



1 had 2 claws.. the other one had no claws.... again.. Jata ni handrawed sometimes in 1860's, used dalam buku Muta'al Badrain :



1 had 2 claws... the other one had 3 claws... both tigers had uneven claws.... again... State Emblem made for JMF Uniform, predated 1900's:



Earliest paintings and drawings depicted this Tigers, one of which was short of 1 leg/claws or deform claws...  Not because they were some drawing mistakes.. but PURPOSELY drew like that 

but.. look at here.. our current Jata officially adopted by State Government:



Some idiots may think our forefathers don't know how to draw tiger claws.. because all ancient painting were uneven... so.. they redraw both tigers to have 3 claws evenly. Unknown to these idiots, there are some story behind these crippled tigers.  

ORIGIN OF 2 TIGERS

Few of us from Johor familiar with story of "Dengkes" and "Tepok".. of of these tigers which 1 was crippled 1 leg short... tempang.

Few chronicles said that they've roamed along the east coast of Johore sometimes 1880's to 1940's... Harimau Tempang... these story paved their ways to the throne of Johore in 1855..

It is said that few buildings and istana, built sometimes 1860's to 1900's... there were claws mark in the wet cement, each of them were uneven footstep of the tigers, or .. 3 legged creatures 

For few of us that has opportunity to inspect the throne room... they'll find out that these throne was designed with 4 tiger legs grabbing the globe... if they looks closely.. one of these tiger legs was deformed.... purposely made that way, to immortalize the Harimau Tepok history during the nation buildings. 



Now.. Yayasan Warisan Johor and State Government.. get you lazzzzyyyy asssss and change back the emblem before Tepok chew your stinkin' asssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hehehehhahahahaahaaa
