PERWAKILAN CHENNAI | 2016 2

In The Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, The Most

Merciful

est Wishes and Greetings to all Members

of PERWAKILAN Chennai and all

Readers!!!

Praise be to the Almighty that the Ladies of

PERWAKILAN have been able to publish the

current edition of the “PERWAKILAN Chennai E-

Newsletter/ Bulletin, No.2”. This E-Newsletter cum

Bulletin provides a forum for the Malaysian Ladies

in Chennai to share ideas in a more effective, fun

and creative way. Taking full advantage of social

media and to reach out to more Malaysians in

Chennai as well as the rest of the areas in the

south of India, the current E-Newsletter is also

posted over on PERWAKILAN Chennai’s blog on

WordPress and on our Facebook page, as well as

the website of the Consulate General of Malaysia

in Chennai.

We are proud to say that our Ladies have

been working hard over 2016 to increase, expand

and upgrade all the activities of our PERWAKILAN

Chennai.

Our notable involvement under the

Overseas Women’s Club in the International Food

Carnival organized by the Madras Cosmopolitan

Round Table 94 (MCRT 94) and Madras

Cosmopolitan Ladies Circle 38 (MCLC 38) was a

good beginning to mark our participation on par

and on the same level with the other international

Ladies clubs and associations in Chennai. We

managed to achieve our target to give charity as

well as raising some fund to increase

PERWAKILAN’s income. For this I would like to

extend my personal heartfelt thanks to all the

members of

PERWAKILAN for their effort, time and

cooperation in making our participation a

resounding success.

Another remarkable event was the

Malaysian Missions In India Family Day 2016, a

joint collaboration of events organized with the

cooperation of the High Commission of Malaysia

in New Delhi and the Consulate General of

Malaysia in Mumbai. We were honored to receive

His Excellency the High Commissioner Datuk

Naimun Ashakli and the Consul General of

Malaysia in Mumbai Mr. Eldeen Hussaini who

came to the event.. It was a day-long event full of

activities in the spirit of camaraderie,

sportsmanship and friendship.

Charity begins at home and home cooked

food is the BEST. With this in mind, every month

one of the Ladies has generously hosted our

Monthly Potluck Gathering. This kind of gathering

is meaningful to all our members where we can

meet up and celebrate important events such as

celebrating the birthday of our loved ones.

We are also heartened that our effort at

Charity had been able to touch and improve the

livelihood of the local women when we managed

B

ADDRESS FROM THE

PRESIDENT by Puan Siti Nor Mawar Abdul Rahman


to donate Rupees 10,000 to the ladies of Anjuman

Mosque as well as donate to the Iftar programme

for the Mosque’s Orphanage during the 2016

Ramadan. We do hope that with this spirit,

PERWAKILAN Chennai will continuously excel to

organize activities based on the 3 principles of

Cheer, Charity and Camaraderie in mind.

And surely 2016 have come around with its

own share of challenges. The currency

demonetization in its initial stages had also

affected our daily lives – how could we do our

shopping when there was not enough new

Rupees to go around! Thank God that we could

use our debit and credit cards to do our spending

… imagine if we were posted to places where

there are more dire currency problems. Further,

while most of us were worried that 2016 will see a

return of the kind of flooding that hit Chennai in

2015, many of us did not expect that instead of

flooding we were hit by Cyclone Vardah that saw

much disruption in our daily lives in December …

from electricity blackouts to disconnected internet

services. And yet together, with our loving

husbands, partners and families, we persevered

against all these challenges.

Therefore, 2016 had concluded with our

achievements for PERWAKILAN Chennai to play

our role in the three-major circle that is

International, Local and Organizational level.

Together as One, PERWAKILAN Chennai can

work towards achieving all our goals effectively.

On this note, I would like to express my personal

thanks to all the members of PERWAKILAN

Chennai for their continuous support in team work

and their good understanding of their role as

PERWAKILAN.

Thank you all!

fall of year 2013. This is a reporting

procedure. The student is very actively involved in

information from teacher to parents.

year. The first one, Fall Student-Led Conference

goal-setting will be for 20 minutes long, with one

family in the room at a time. The second, Spring

Student-Led Conference will be conducted for 30

minutes long, with two families in the room at one

time, and a 15 minutes staggered start time. This is

an opportunity for parents to see the relationship

between the teacher and student, and to establish

the partnership between

all three: student, teacher and parents.

the city boasts with selections of

regional and international cuisine. The

choice of dishes available is vast and caters

for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians.

The delicious combination of flavours will

appeal to all foodies. The common food

staple in Chennai includes Idli(steamed rice

cakes) or dosa which are served with coconut

chutney, lentil broth and powdery mix of

lentils. Another staple food is rice. An

example of a dish combination would be the

locals having their steamed rice with rasam,

sambar, chutney and curry. Chennai is also

known for its southern filter coffee.The

combination of roasted coffee beans and

fresh chicory creates an irresistible aromatic

blend.

A good selection of cheap and cheerful

eateries is dotted around Anna Salai, while

T.Nagar is home to Chennai’s mid-range

dining options. The city’s most expensive

restaurants are those specialising in

international cuisine, such as Chinese, Italian

and Japanese. Most of these high-end

Road, Nungambakkam and St. Thomas

Mount.

Cathedral Rd/Nungambakkam This area has a distinct international flavour

considered as one of the most expensive

dining area but diners can expect a high level

of service accompanied by delectable dishes.

shopping district, ranging from tasty take-

aways to sit down South Indian buffets. Most

restaurants function solely as refuelling stops.

Mylapore is the best spot. Restaurants in the

area have been passed down through

generations, thus menus feature dishes

which have been perfected by time.

Dakshin ITC Hotel Park

Sheraton This intimate and inspiring restaurant is

particularly good for seafood, especially the

lobster and prawn dishes. Featured dishes

draw their influences heavily from Tamil

Nadu, Kerala and Karnataka.

Buhari Restaurant (Mount

Road) If you are passing by the Mount Rd you will

definitely notice a red white combination of

letters that spells out BUHARI. First to open

its door to the public in 1951, it is the

originator of ‘Chicken 65’. A famous fried

chicken dish thats popular amongst the locals

as well as other delectable dishes one should

definitely try which is the Rogan Josh, Paya,

Mutton Masala, Wheat Prattles to name a

few.

Bengaluru Suburban Rail May Soon Be A Reality BENGALURU: FEBRUARY 16, 2016 00:00 IST

UPDATED: FEBRUARY 16, 2016 05:32 IST

State has proposed project

connecting Mandya-Kengeri,

Tumakuru-Yeshwantpur,

Whitefield-Byappanahalli

n what could soon alleviate

the daily commute for those

who travel to the State

capital for work, the State

government has proposed

a Bengaluru suburban

railway system connecting

Mandya and Kengeri,

Tumakuru and

Yeshwantapur, and

Whitefield and

Byappanahalli (in Bengaluru) in the first phase.

The estimated cost of the entire project is Rs. 9,000 crore. The State has requested the

Centre to take up first phase of the project, which would cost Rs. 1,000 crore. This would help ease

traffic congestion in Bengaluru city, which has emerged as the country’s technology capital apart from

being the leading IT hub.

The State government had discussed the suburban railway project in the Invest-Karnataka meet held

recently. The project requires minimal intervention; it only needs upgrading of existing facilities and

negates building from scratch.

Addressing presspersons on the project, Bengaluru Development Minister K.J. George on Monday said

the Centre has shown the green signal for the Bengaluru suburban railway project. Union Railway

Minister Suresh Prabhu is likely to announce the project in the Railway Budget later this month.

The project would be a joint venture initiative envisaging 49 per cent investment and ownership by the

Railways and 51 per cent share to the State.

MADURAI

Bicentenary Of Tamil Education In Malaysia Celebrated In

Madurai MADURAI: AUGUST 21, 2016 02:41 IST

“It comes up with opportunities for

furthering the interests of the language”

he bicentenary celebration of introduction of

Tamil education in Malaysia, organised by

Sangam 4 at Fatima College here on

Saturday, came up with opportunities for

furthering the interests of the language through

bilateral efforts between Tamil Nadu and Malaysia.

R. Mahadevan, Judge, Madras High Court, who

honoured Malaysian Deputy Minister for Education

P. Kamalanathan on the occasion, referred to how

people's love and passion ensured that Tamil

remained a vibrant language since the introduction

of Tamil education in 1816. He also underscored the

need to foster ancient Tamil art forms and also to

form alliances with people in Malaysia to enhance

the status of Tamil. Tamil people had the pride of

having ownership of the mother of all languages, he

said.

Outlining the initiatives to commemorate the

bicentenary of Tamil education in Malaysia, Mr.

Kamalanathan said that at present the country had

524 Tamil schools with 10, 000 teachers and one

lakh students and efforts were on to expand it

further.

Jegath Gaspar, convenor of Sangam 4, called for

efforts to institutionalise exchange and dialogue in

the field of education between the two

countries. He also suggested the inclusion

of Madurai as an ancillary subject in

courses offered by autonomous colleges in

the region. C. Pandithurai, who received

an award for fostering Tamil in Malaysia,

felt that the school curriculum in Tamil

Nadu should contain lessons on Tamils

living abroad.

Madurai Central MLA P. T. R. P. Thiagajaran said

that of all the positions he held, the opportunity to

serve the people as an MLA was deemed the

highest. Those who addressed the gathering

included R. Gandhi, senior advocate, and Congress

MLA from Mudukulathur Malaysia S. Pandian.

Earlier, addressing students and staff members of

ANDHRA PRADESH

CM Told To Get Sustainability Of Amaravati Studied VIJAYAWADA: MAY 04, 2016 00:00 IST

Naidu welcomes ideas for a futuristic, self-contained city

hief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu sought the

expertise of Malaysian government and

businesses in the development of Andhra

Pradesh and promised to extend full support to

their endeavours. While saying so, he acknowledged

the fact that the sustainability of the emerging capital

city Amaravati had to be studied for better planning.

In an interactive session with a Malaysian trade

delegation led by its Minister of International Trade and

Industry Mustapa Mohamed, here on Tuesday, Mr.

Chandrababu Naidu was asked by a senior executive

of IJM India Infrastructure to get the sustainability of

Amaravati measured and rated globally not only for

attracting investments but also setting benchmarks in

urban designing for other cities in the world.

The Chief Minister replied that he would welcome

experts in urban planning and designing to help A.P. in

transforming Amaravati into a futuristic, self-contained

city that is in harmony with nature. He said he was

very much impressed with the Economic and

Government Transformation Programs

that the Malaysian Government’s

Performance Enhancement and

Delivery Unit (PEMANDU) had

undertaken and looked forward to its

full involvement in shaping up

Amaravati. The 15 per cent growth

rate targeted for FY 2016-17 would

open new vistas of development for

those looking to harness the potential

of A.P., he added.

Mr. Mustapa Mohamed said Malaysia

and A.P. had a long record of ties and

the Southeast Asian country was

keen on building on the strong

foundations laid more than two

decades ago. “We are excited with

the opportunities in Amaravati and

will certainly utilise them. We will

also share the best practices in

governance and other areas that

facilitated our growth into one of the

economic powers to reckon with in

these parts of the world.”

Open sessions

Ravindran Devagunam, Director of

PEMANDU Labs, said it would organise

‘open sessions’ in the coming weeks to let the people

of A.P. know about the outcomes of the work being

done by the Malaysian organisation. “We will help A.P.

in improvising governance services delivery and in

rolling out IT applications,” he added.

Malaysian Consul General in Chennai, Ahmed

Fajarazam and Malaysian Investment Development

Authority Deputy CEO N. Rajendran were among

those present.

'Despite Having Huge Potential', direct service from Madurai to Malaysia yet to take flight TNN | Aug 1, 2016, 07.29 AM IST

adurai: Despite a strong link between the large Tamil

diaspora in Malaysia and the southern districts of Tamil

Nadu, air-connectivity between Madurai and Malaysia is

yet to become a reality.

On Saturday, the Tamil Nadu Chamber of Commerce and Industry

submitted a memorandum to the consul general of Malaysia

Ahamed Fajarazam Bin Jalil, who is on a visit to the city, urging

the country's support in getting a direct flight between Madurai and

Kuala Lumpur. In its memorandum, the chamber noted that Tamil-

speaking people originating from the southern districts, especially

Madurai, Sivaganga and Ramanathapuram, will contribute

significantly towards both inbound and outbound traffic in this

sector.

It is estimated that as many as half a million passengers hailing

from Madurai and other southern districts fly out of the state every

year through Trichy and Chennai airports to various international

destinations, with the majority of them travelling to Malaysia.

Early introduction of direct flight between Madurai and Kuala

Lumpur will be commercially viable for Air Asia and immensely

benefit passengers and would also encourage more people to

travel to Malaysia on vacation, the trade body observed.

It also pointed out that Madurai is a prominent destination for

foreign tourists. There are also other tourist destinations like the

salubrious hill station Kodaikanal, Munnar, Courtallam waterfalls,

Rameswaram and Kanyakumari which can be easily reached from

Madurai. "The major concern is that there is no bilateral treaty

between India and Malaysia to

operate flights to Madurai. So we

are appealing to the Malaysian

authorities to take it up with our

government," said senior

president of chamber S

Rethinavelu.

B S G Musthafa of Meraj Travels

said that a delegation from the

trade body had met Air Asia

officials in November 2011,

seeking a flight. "They responded

positively. But Air Asia is waiting

for approval from the director

general of Civil Aviation and the

inclusion of Madurai airport in the

bilateral treaty between India and

Malaysia," he said.

E-visa System Becoming Popular: Consul General TIRUCHI: NOVEMBER 07, 2016 21:01 IST

he e-visa system introduced by Malaysia a

few months ago is becoming popular with

more number of Indians opting for the

online route to obtain visa to visit that

country.

The office of the Consulate General of Malaysia

for South India in Chennai issues about 500

electronic visas every day ever since the system

was introduced on April 15. Consul General of

Malaysia for South India A. Fajarazam told The

Hindu here on Monday that the Malaysian

government had introduced the electronic visa

system as it was cheaper, faster and

more efficient.

The electronic visa was an

improvement made in the issue of

visa in addition to the regular system.

The office of the Consulate General

of Malaysia for South India issued

about 2.50 lakh visas annually. The

figure had been rising every year.

With the introduction of e-visa

system, it would increase further,

Mr. Fajarazam said.

He said around 7.25 lakh Indian

tourists visited Malaysia in 2015.

Of them, 65 to 70 per cent were from south India.

Malaysia, he said, was very keen to operate its

carriers to South Indian cities of Coimbatore and

Madurai as well in view of the huge potential.

This was put forth during the visit of Malaysian

Minister of Transport Liow Tiong Lai to India in

March. The same was reiterated by Malaysian

Deputy Minister of Education P. Kamalanathan

during his brief visit to Tamil Nadu recently.
