Are you
already confused with what to pronounce Malacca or Melaka, but now here is the
solution for your question, Now as it can bring to an end for this confusion, The
Malacca State Executive Council decided that the Anglicized state name spelling
of ''Malacca'' will cease to be used, and that reference to the state in
English shall henceforth be exclusively “Melaka”
Melaka State
Secretary Naim Abu Bakar said, it is hoped the use of the name Melaka for the
state is communicated to all parties involved, and that the cooperation of the
media in supporting the usage of the name is highly appreciated by the state
government.
This is
admirable move, Especially for tourist. Most of the tourist face this problem.
As it is intended to standardize the use of the name ''Melaka'', especially in
English for all worldwide tourist.
With the
effect of this, in additional information this compact Malaysian state's
catchphrase – 'Don't mess with Melaka' – sums up its confident attitude. Recent
years have seen Melaka capitalize on its illustrious history and assert itself
as one of Malaysia’s most irresistible tourist draws. The rest of the state is
a patchwork of forests, farmland and often deserted beaches. Melaka also offers number of Events and Festivals throughout the year. There's a generous
scattering of family-friendly attractions too.
So plan your trip now.
