Preserving our nation’s past, one piece at a time
WHAT
if some of Malaysia’s most significant historical treasures are not stored in a
national vault, but lie forgotten in private homes or old photo albums? This is
the primary motivation behind the National Archives of Malaysia’s (ANM) new
Community Archives programme.
The
initiative encourages citizens and communities to actively participate in
preserving the nation’s history by contributing significant materials to the
agency, which is responsible for managing Malaysia’s heritage documents and
records.
The
programme was launched in Klang in partnership with the Klang Royal City
Council (MBDK), serving as a clarion call for the public to enrich the national
archives with their unique historical collections. The ANM team was present to provide
basic restoration services for cherished paper-based items such as
certificates. They also demonstrated how proper care and digitisation can
ensure the historical pieces endure for generations to come.
“This Community Archives programme will be expanded by
ANM across the country to reach out to individuals, families, prominent
figures, organisations and communities that possess historically valuable
collections,” said National Unity Minister Datuk Aaron Ago Dagang in his speech
during the launch.
“The
public is encouraged to contribute their personal collections to ANM to help
complete the existing archive and fill gaps in historical information.”
Aaron also unveiled ANM’s Community Archives Kit during the launch in May at Galeri Warisan at MBDK branch office in Jalan Tengku Kelana, Klang.
