Buku The Qur'an - An Encyclopedia


Buku hasil edit oleh Oliver Leaman. Antara entri yang dimuatkan adalah Abd Al-Rauf Al-Singkili, Abu Lahab, 'Ad, Muhammad Abduh, Tafsir in early Islam, Tafsir - Salafi view, Tajwid, Tafwid, Taqlid, Translation and the Quran - European translations, English translations, ...

Oliver Leaman (born 1950) is an American professor of philosophy and Zantker Professor of Judaic studies at the University of Kentucky, where he has been teaching since 2000. He specialized in the history of Islamic, Jewish, and Eastern philosophy. He received his PhD from the University of Cambridge in 1979 (wiki - link).

Petikan:

I (Oliver Leaman) have for a long time felt that it would be very helpful for there to be a reference work on the Quran an which is not enormous in size and written only for the specialist, and yet which is more substantial than some of the very short introductory works on the topic

It is the aim of this book to bridge that gap between the highly scholarly and technical text and the rather skimpy elementary books.

The Medical School Singapore mula dibuka pada 18 Sept 1905 oleh Gabenor Sir John Anderson dengan nama 'The Straits Settlements and FMS Medical School'. Pada 1912 ia menerima sumbangan $120,000 (14,000 Pound) dari King Edward VII Memorial. Kemudian pada 1913 nama bertukar kepada King Edward VII Medical School. Pada 1920 nama bertukar lagi kini kepada King Edward VII College of Medicine.

Raffles College ditubuh pada 1928 dan dibuka secara rasmi pada 1929 oleh Sir Hugh Clifford.

VC pertama UM Spore adalah Dr George V Allen yang sebelum itu adalah Pengetua King Edward VII College of Medicine. Beliau melepas jawatan pada 1952 kerana terpaksa pulang apabila isteri beliau sakit. Kemudian VC dipegang oleh Sir Sydney Caine dari 1952 hingga 1956.

Dagangan Thailand Dan Zeiss-Jena Era Cold War


Thailand tetap berurus niaga dengan Carl Zeiss Jena walau dunia melancar sekatan dagangan dengan negara blok komunis  Jerman Timur. Dagangan paling perlu dari Zeiss-Jena yang dibeli Thailand adalah instrumen ukur untuk kerja ukur dan pemetaan.

Petikan:

Despite these challenges, Zeiss-Jena never gave up on its endeavor to penetrate the Thai market, because the senior management of the company was aware of Thailand’s huge demand for optical measuring technology, microscopes and topographical measurement equipment, including surface meteorology equipment. Already in the early 1970s, Zeiss-Jena served a broad Thai market for products in measurement technology, the medical industry, photography and mechanical engineering.

Zeiss-Jena experts managed to set up a network of relations with individuals and institutions in Thailand, including government offices such as the Department for Business Economics, at the Ministry of Commerce; the Royal Thai Survey Department, which is a special services group under the Royal Thai Armed Forces Headquarters rtsd; the Department of Lands under the Ministry of Interior; the Agricultural Land Reform Office (alro) and the National Energy Authority.

Zeiss-Jena had a particular interest in the sale of measuring devices to Thai institutions and government departments that were tasked to conduct surveying work for the purposes of land reform and environmental protection.

Jurnal Manusya Tentang Chiang Mai

 

Sebuah artikel dalam jurnal Manusya isu terkini bertajuk 'Palace, Prison, Park or Palimpsest? The Contested Heritage of the Former Palace of Chiang Mai'. 

Petikan artikel Mansya (link);

The historic town of Chiang Mai in northern Thailand is well-known for its Buddhist temples and distinctive Lan Na-style architecture. While several decades of urban development have transformed the city, the square moat and brick ramparts surrounding the old city still evoke the grandeur of Chiang Mai’s past as the center of the Lan Na kingdom, which lasted from its founding in the late 13th century by King Mangrai until its incorporation into the nascent nation of Siam beginning in the late 19th century.

Ini bukan kat Chiang Mai ... tapi kat klia2
