Do you remember
the poem "GURINDAM DUA BELAS"?
the poem "GURINDAM DUA BELAS"?
I saw the complete "Gurindam dua belas" on cemetary at Penyengat Island.
2 of 12 poems
Gurindam Fasal yang ke dua
Barangsiapa mengenal yang tersebut
Tahulah ia makna takut
Barangsiapa meninggalkan sembahyang
Seperti rumah tiada bertiang
Barangsiapa meninggalkan puasa
Tidaklah mendapat dua termasya
Barangsiapa meninggalkan zakat
Tiadalah hartanya beroleh berkat
Barangsiapa meninggalkan haji
Tiadalah ia menyempurnakan janji
Tahulah ia makna takut
Barangsiapa meninggalkan sembahyang
Seperti rumah tiada bertiang
Barangsiapa meninggalkan puasa
Tidaklah mendapat dua termasya
Barangsiapa meninggalkan zakat
Tiadalah hartanya beroleh berkat
Barangsiapa meninggalkan haji
Tiadalah ia menyempurnakan janji
Lihat kepada budi dan bahasa
Jika hendak mengenal
orang muliaLihat kepada kelakuan dia
Jika hendak mengenal orang yang berilmu
Bertanya dan belajar tiadalah jemu
Jika hendak mengenal orang yang berakal
Di dalam dunia mengambil bekal
Jika hendak mengenal orang yang baik perangai
Lihat pada ketika bercampur dengan orang ramai .....INTERESTING?
Islands
Do you know how many islands Indonesia have?
17000 islands, 6000 of them are inhabited. Five largest islands are Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Papua.
One of the island near Tanjung Pinang, Penyengat island, developed as religious heritage. Mosque, cemetary, and palace are tourist destination on that island. The view nice surrounding with the trees. Silence. A place for us to go andescape from busy and hectic time. Becak motor as a travel moda on that island. If you prefer walk, you can do it through paving block. But, it was too bad, I didn't see the place such as small hotel or wisma, for stay on that island.
How did I know this island? I didn't see promotion or information at the airport. Iknew this island from my friend, an old way of marketing - WOM (word of mouth) 0r viral marketing. Probably the local government forgot about the supply side (see Tourism Planning post) : attraction, services, transportation, information and promotion.
