This article highlights some of the earliest surviving issues of the first Malay newspaper, Jawi Peranakkan, published between 1876 and 1895 in Jawi (a Malay script derived from Arabic). It was financed, run and edited by a group of Jawi Peranakkan (local born Indian Muslims). With the aim to give its readers the latest local and foreign news, it appeared every Monday with news of events, government notices, some advertisements, an editorial and syair (poetry corner). Besides discussing the weakness of the Malay community, it was also the first Malay newspaper to criticise British colonial policy. After some analysis and hypothesis on the role of the newspaper, the writer concludes that it was one of the catalysts and sources of Malay intellectualism. Its influence enabled Singapore in the early years to be the hub of Malay literature in the region.

It was a landmark publication as it was the first Malay newspaper to be wholly owned, financed, written and managed by Malays. The birth of Utusan Melayu was a pivotal moment for political organisation Kesatuan Melayu Singapura (Singapore Malay Union) as it marked the revival and progress of Malays as a bangsa (“nation” or “race”). Utusan Melayu was established not to rival other newspapers but to serve the bangsa, agama (“religion”) and watan (“country” or “birthplace”) of Malays. Yusof bin Ishak, who later became Singapore’s first’s Malayan-born Yang di-Pertuan Negara (“Head of State”) and subsequently president, was one of the newpaper’s prime movers.

There is a dearth of useful published information on Southeast Asian contemporary visual art, hampering its interpretation. This paper discusses the challenge in finding information which is scattered, of varying authority and degrees of accessibility. It examines systematically the issues and difficulties existing in the various types of literary resources on the subject, such as scholarly art publications, art books, museum catalogs, thematic books, biographies, biographical dictionaries, art journals and newspapers, as well as web resources. On the topic of scholarly art publishing, it analyses the challenges and limitations in the production of such works, citing costs, limited market and readership. As for art books, the paper raises the problems of investment returns, quality, scarcity of niche publishers, as well as the shortcomings of museum publications and publicity catalogs. It also examines the challenges of dealing with informational resources such as art journals and newspapers. Firstly, a competent reading knowledge of languages other than English is a prerequisite. Secondly, there is the problem of brevity and cursory treatment of the topic in this type of resources. Significantly, there are difficulties in finding a suitable voice and stable readership for such reports. The paper also discusses the drawbacks of web resources, pointing to the lack of guarantee on accuracy and orderliness. Nevertheless, the Internet remains the best tool for locating information on Southeast Asian contemporary artists. The paper concludes with a discussion on the future of Southeast Asian art writing and publishing and a proposal on how these activities could be sustained. Highlighted also in the paper are various useful titles written on contemporary Southeast Asian art and artists.

In this article, the writer paints a portrait of Abdul Ghani Hamid as a modern artist and poet and the various influences which shaped his works. He is one of the earliest proponents of Pablo Picasso in this region. He is also well known for his poetry which is very much associated with the environment. A unique artist who is conscious of his surroundings, he never allows the sights of his life to pass by unnoticed. Abdul Ghani's works are able to portray the universe and his thoughts. Whether directly or indirectly, his paintings are a sound manifestation of the poems assigned to them.	Abdul Ghani the artist -- Abdul Ghani the poet -- The artist and his world -- Furthur reading.
