Improve accessibility to online Malay literature


I WAS doing some research on Malay literature recently and became quite frustrated with the lack of digitalised text online.

While it was easy to find the digitalised texts to English classics like A Tale of Two Cities and Chinese classics like Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I was hard-pressed to search for the ones for Malay classics such as Sejarah Melayu (The Malay Annals) and Hikayat Hang Tuah (The Legend of Hang Tuah).
