Abstract (in English)

This publication will be our third annual report recording this endeavor. It was a fruitful and challenging year as we begin to outreach to other stakeholders, expand the capacity building in order to gather more data relating to current state of the New Villages in Malaysia, as well as organising writing workshop to consolidate the works, standardization in presentation of data for different new villages selected as preliminary list for listing as national heritage, and potentially for world listing. We also presented our works in oral and poster session during ICOMOS GA2023 in Sydney. This allowing us to meet more experts who may work on the area of study to join effort especially in comparative analysis study in the future. Our members presented at ICOMOS CIVVIH Asia-Pacific Sub-Committee Online Seminar with titled “The Malayan New Villages: Participatory Approaches in Village Conservation”. With the rather active year, our initiative captured by general public, and receiving both ‘positive’ and ‘negative’ feedbacks on our endeavor for listing of new villages. As mentioned in the report 2, we adopted both top-down and bottom-up approaches in scrutinizing its potential. Writing up session was organized for members end-2023 to prepare draft write up for listing new village. Additional workshop also organised to collect more information in order to ensure standardization of the paper works. In February 2024, we presented our proposal with New Village Division, Minister of Housing and Local Government, and subsequently ICOMOS Malaysia was invited to joined and brainstorming session on Draft Masterplan 2026-2035 for the New Villages (including fishing villages and regrouped village) in Peninsular Malaysia in April 2024. To encourage better involvement of the communities, for Symposium in Sekinchan (Site A, Site B, Site C), we adopted the same format of symposium carried out in Cha’ah New Village, whereby the most of the presenters are from the local and community leaders, like sharing session for them. The key focal point be the researcher who are working and familiar with the area, and if possible one of their community leaders. ICOMOS members from Malaysia will act more like a facilitator and assisting them for this initiative. For capacity building effort, one of our members presented in PAM Architectural heritage: Conservation Course for Architects with titled “Architectural heritage Conservation: Approaches and Procedure for Cha’ah New Village”. To encourage better youth participating in the works, member presented paper titled “The Role of EP on NV: The Malaysian Examples” organized by International Correspondents and Youth Talents. Two (2) galleries display about history and life within the NV were visited. These galleries initiated by local communities and NGOs with support from the local councils. There are Heritage Corridor of Sungai Way New Village in Selangor, and Hakka Museum at Sekinchan in Selangor. As outreach activities, ICOMOS Malaysia NVWG also presented the research works and sharing with local communities, such as the 1-day temporary exhibition in conjunction with the fund rising event for school hall organized at School Hall at SJK(C) Cha’ah in May 2024. NVWG collaborates with experts (members of NVWG) from local universities such as University of Malaya, New Era University College, and Taylor’s University, UCSI University and University Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia for events and research works. In early 2024, we work with Taylor’s University for measured drawings elective course framed around new villages, and kicked start work Sungai Jarom New Village in Selangor, and course works in progress with first presentation on 28 June 2024.
