Arkib Negara Malaysia

Arkib Negara Malaysia or the Malaysian National Archives is at http://www.arkib.gov.my/home. It keeps photos of important personnel and events in Malaysian history. 

It has an online search facility called Carian Bahan Arkib at http://compassweb.arkib.gov.my/. The search field accepts exact text (Masukkan Teks Carian) including full-stop for "Dr." or it returns a null message. This search facility searches all Arkib stores at the various sites including in the different states.

The advanced search option is available under Carian Terperinci (click on it). Here, one can limit the search by site and type of media.  

Here are the search terms I have used in Carian Bahan Arkib.

Jabatan Penerangan Malaysia

Jabatan Penerangan Malaysia is at http://www.penerangan.gov.my/ 

It has a huge online copyright gallery called i-Foto at http://ifoto.penerangan.gov.my/html/fjpen6/main.php 

The copyright photos can be purchased either in print form or digital form. Printed photos are cheaper than digital photos. But printed photos need to be picked up (in person) while the digital form can be downloaded. More details on access to photos from Perpustakaan Foto.

Payment is required before the photos can be picked up or downloaded.

If Jabatan Penerangan Malaysia photos are used for any type of publication, the author/editor must deposit a copy of his/her published book/material at the department.

I don't know what the English name of the department is. Maybe, Department of Public Information Malaysia?
