by Norwani Md. Nawawi, Azhar Abd Jamil dan Elliza Hashim
The Beauty of Malaysian Songket (Keindahan Kain Tenun Songket Malaysia) is one of the publications created by The National Department for Arts and Culture in 2022. This exclusive publication on Malaysian songket encompasses bilingual documented material in both Malay and English that will fulfill the needs of a diverse audience. It also incorporates augmented reality (AR) technology, which will be a pioneering feat and will set a new benchmark for future academic publications. Prof Norwani Md. Nawawi, the author of the book, conducted thorough research involving many of the main songket figures in Terengganu, Kelantan, Pahang, Melaka, Johor and Sarawak. It is hoped that the publication of this book will add to the references on artistic cultural heritage and at the same time provide a clear testament that songket is a treasure of national heritage that should remain as one of the catalysts for national civilisation.

Memory is a double-edged sword that is both a blessing and a curse. In the halls of a hospital, echoes of human suffering and triumph ring loudest, imprinting indelible marks upon the minds of its workers. Some memories are sweet, a blissful balm to recall; others knives-sharp, wounding the soul. Death and life, pain and healing, laughter and tears - however we choose to remember them, they remain forever unforgettable. 20 cases, 20 writers. Regardless of whether we are healthcare workers or patients, our humanity ultimately remains the same. Just one more case - that unforgettable one.

I've Found A Home
by Sahar Abd Alah
It narrates the anecdote of a fairly tiny flea and how it leads its life in a persistent movement from somewhere to another. The Flea is on the move, in quest for a shelter, wherein it is to be harbored, and wherein it spends day and night. Yet, it does not take long to find itself settled on a white furry tomcat. Then, the Flea’s days are not so palmy since the Tomcat is on the move, leading its life in leaps and bounds. The Flea is at times dwelling in the proximity of the Tomcat’s tail, and on others on its whisker. Eventually, the Flea ends up with being on a giant dog’s fur: thus commencing a new lifecycle with being full of wishful thoughts: “I’d find a Home?!!” This Shot Story purports to create a ‘contemplative esprit’ onto Children, to render them rummaging with scrutiny over their surroundings, and to cognitively appease their mind’s eye in such a manner that makes them contemplate, cerebrate and innovate.
