Pointers on historical sovereignty


SOME weeks ago, I had the pleasure of attending, for the first time since 2010, the Raptor Watch organised by the Malaysian Nature Society at Tanjung Tuan, Port Dickson. It was a most educational day with the majestic birds being the highlight, closely followed by the mangrove plantations.

The Cape Rachado lighthouse provided a stunning view of the world’s busiest sea lane, high-tech gadgetry and historical nuggets. The latter became especially pertinent when, while ascending the staircase wearing my hat featuring the flag of Negri Sembilan, my friend remarked that I must be happy this event was happening “in your state”.
