- W4313199841 abstract "Editor’s Note Paul Kratoska The December 2022 issue of JMBRAS includes an article by Mathieu Guérin explaining the origins of Malaysia’s policy for protecting forest animals, and the genesis of Taman Negara, a national park created to protect a large expanse of forest (4,343 sq km) and the fauna living there. The architect of this policy was a noted big game hunter turned conservationist named Theodore Hubback. To complement this article, the journal is reprinting an essay that Hubback published in 1941 in the Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society explaining the importance of salt-licks for the protection and preservation of wildlife, drawing examples from northern Pahang, near the area of the state included in the Taman Negara. Two articles deal with perceptions. Ali Humayun Akhtar examines how China is perceived in classic Malay texts, and Theophilus Kwek considers the way students at Singapore’s Raffles Institution viewed the world around them during the transition from colonialism to independence, basing his account on stories written for a student publication. Two other articles look at aspects of public health in the Straits Settlements during the nineteenth century. Tham Junean and Mohd Samsudin draw on Admiralty records for evidence concerning the incidence of disease among sailors on Royal Navy Ships in the Straits of Malacca during the Napoleonic Wars. Heat figures prominently in accounts by nineteenth-century authors concerning illness and well-being in Malaya, and Fiona Williamson brings a fresh perspective to the subject by examining heat in the context of weather science in the Straits Settlements. Finally, Ahmad Husni and Mahani Musa revisit the origins of Malaysia’s education and language policy by considering the life and beliefs of Muhammad Yusof bin Ahmad, an educationist and legislator who was deeply involved with these issues during Malaysia’s formative years in the early 19590s.
