Sorry guys, I tried to find an article online that goes more into the historic aspects of the Hungry Ghosts Festival as celebrated here in Malaysia, but literally everything focuses on the now, since this is very much a living experience. I am adamant of posting something about it today regardless, since today's the peak of Ghost Month for those who celebrate it.

A community for the discussion of history in Malaysia and its predecessor polities, with a focus on local topics that are not in "mainstream" History syllabus.

The echoes of the past shall not be forgotten.

community logo FMS coat of arms

The community logo is based on the coat of arms of the Federated Malay States? It combines all the colours from the flags of the constituent states:

  • Perak: White, yellow, black
  • Selangor: Red, yellow
  • Pahang: White, black
  • Negeri Sembilan: Yellow, red, black

The FMS coat of arms would eventually evolve into the coat of arms of Malaysia, with the FMS colours forming the core of the blazon.
