SEARCH 35

20 May 2005

It is Friday, 11.51 am.

The 35th search is to scrutinise some webpages of Datuk Ramlah Adam at http://www.ippp.um.edu.my/malay/direktori/expertiseDetail.asp?intID=11 which I had accessed and printed on 9 May 2005. I was thinking may be she would know something about the early Malay doctors.

She has written "Dr. Burhanuddin Al-Helmy: Satu Kemelut Politik", 2000. Kuala Lumpur, Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka. Also see Searches 6, 21, 23, and 24 re Dr. Burhanuddin Al-Hemy.

Earlier, I had searched for her under Professor Ramlah Adam using Google and came to IPPP, UM. But I could not access her webpages since it was a Sunday and a holiday for Selangor, and the UM server was switched off. So, I waited to re-do the search on Monday, 9 May 2005.

On another count, I had actually ran a search on 'educational technology' to prepare for an upcoming lecture when I stumbled on Professor Dr. Ramlah Adam's name listed on a website named"Sejarah Tempatan - Tokoh Pendidik" at http://www.perpustam.edu.my/clhproject/sejarah/tkpendidik.htm . I had accessed and printed the page on 8 May 2005.

I only know Prof. Ramlah Adam on TV as she usually appears on TV commenting on political scenarios or elections which are easy for me to follow and enjoyable too. I particularly like her relaxed manner when commenting on sensitive issues, and she imparts an air of a modern working female intellectual.  She articulates in good Bahasa Melayu, something that seems missing from modern speeches and commentaries delivered on Malaysian TV.

It is 12.31 pm.
