About Anisah

            Anisah

Ainsah in Jawi

Anisah in Chinese

At times, curiosity provokes readers to find out about this person's personal details. I hate to disappoint, but there are none here beyond the following:
Muslim, woman, voter, polyglot. 

My practical heritage is Malaysian, collective memory is Straits Chinese, culture is British, outlook is Commonwealth, views are European, and my religion is Islam.  This site contains a mix-bag of entries, including but not limited to politics and political literacy,  Islam, spirituality and social justice, books and reviews, and the occasional pictures.  If you want to respond to any articles here, do leave a comment, or email me at anisah.sofia@yahoo.com

To write is to remember This is the next article, somewhat a soliloquy.  I have been reading Huo Da, a Chinese writer from Beijing.  I wished I could read Mandarin, but at the moment, I cannot.  The English translation is not smooth,

Moral policing on religious grounds have arrived in Malaysia - HORROR! For sometime, some Malaysians, Muslims not excluded have indulged in measuring their neighbours' or politicians' religiousity.  Of course, there's no standardisation in the

two guilts

Saturday, 4 February 2006 3:19 P GMT
