Mention the name Melaka, and one would envision a state rich with its history and culture. It is an undeniable truth that Melaka is unique in the history of Malaysiasince 600 years ago. Melaka has distinct itself as the focal point of traders fromthe East and West and maintained its popilarity one century after another with past connections with the Imperialist powers such as Portuguese, the Dutch and the English.
Scholars, tourists and the locals alike are still fascinated in finding answers; as the like of the reasons behind the visit of China's Great Admiral Cheng Ho or to know the virtues behind the marriage between Parameswara (Melaka's first ruler) and one of Pasai Princess.
One of themost interesting features of Melaka is on its ethnic integration where the Malays appear to be the nucleus of other main community such as the Babas and the convergence of each community influences and cultures. This has indeed illustrates Melaka as a state affluent with colourful and interesting cultures.
