Welcome to Naskhah, the digital magazine dedicated to celebrating and exploring the many layers of Malay culture, heritage, and identity.
Created as a cultural hub for Malays in Singapore and worldwide, Naskhah serves as a platform to document, preserve, and breathe new life into the timeless traditions, vibrant histories and evolving narratives of the Malay community.
Tradition in Editions
Through in-depth features, critiques, and interviews, Naskhah covers an array of topics that reflect the richness of Malay heritage and the diversity within it. Readers can delve into segments that honor our literary legacy through pantun, peribahasa, and poetry, while also discovering contemporary voices and stories that inspire new aspirations. In each edition, we bridge the past with the present, from cultural knowledge and traditional crafts to the stories of modern innovators who are redefining Malay identity in today’s world.
A Platform for Voices that Care
Naskhah also provides a platform for thought-provoking opinions, critical analysis, and insightful commentaries on current issues affecting Malay society. Our pages feature voices from various backgrounds—scholars, artists, entrepreneurs, and changemakers—all contributing to a growing dialogue that informs, engages, and inspires.
The heartbeat of Malay culture
More than a magazine, Naskhah is a living document, the pulse of the Malay spirit and its dynamic resilience, encompassing both the familiar and the new. As we navigate these narratives together, we invite you to be part of this journey of discovery, pride, and inspiration. Let Naskhah be the place where heritage meets the future, where we honor the stories of our ancestors while crafting new chapters for generations to come.
