They’ve put it up there, together with ‘Titanic’, as one of the greatest love epic of all time and I definitely agree, in fact doubly so because it is a Malaysian production.
In my opinion, Puteri Gunung Ledang IS a masterpiece. You can see the love and the effort that all those involved had wholeheartedly put into this film.
The characterization is superb. One can feel the overwhelming love of the Gusti Putri. One can more than sense the internal struggle in the heart of the Laksamana. One can practically see the wheels turning in the crafty Bendahara’s mind. From the mightiest of kings to the lowliest of rakyat, everyone was in place.
The scenes captured were true and beautifully radiant. The special effects and CG images were surprisingly realistic and suitable to each situation. The fight scenes were well choreographed and unmistakably silat. The blend of modern and gamelan music brings out the spirit of each scene and make it come alive.
I realize that though many will agree with me, there will be just as many who will disagree. But I implore you; go watch this movie with an open mind and hopefully you will come out feeling as pleasantly wonderstruck as I was and still am.

Tolong!!! Pencuri!!!
Aku (dengan lurus bendulnya) tidak menutup ‘pintu’ setelah menghalau beberapa ‘tetamu’ yang tidak diundang keluar dari rumah. Akibatnya dengan mudah rumah kami dimasuki pencuri.
Habis berselerak kamar-kamar di tingkat atas dikerjakannya. Hilanglah duit simpanan kecemasan yang Pak simpan di rumah dan lupuslah sejumlah besar barangan kemas Mak.
Cincin delima Mekah dan cincin zamrud aku pun dikebasnya. Tambahan pula beg sandang lusuh aku juga turut dikidnap untuk membolehkan Sang Pencuri mengangkut hasil songlapannya dengan lebih selesa. Malah lebih malang lagi, kacamata hitam jenama Rayban kesayangan aku berada dalam kocek beg sandang tersebut.
Choooobaaaa-aaaaaan… Dah takde rezki nak buat camne? Ahak! Ahak!
(Mak cukup marah sebab aku releks sangat berdepan dengan situasi ini)

I've been to Nexus!
I used to wonder at the hefty fees incurred if one wishes to holiday at the Nexus Resort Karambunai, but no longer.
One of the courses I attended had brought me to this incredibly beautiful and scenic place.
The friendly service is first class while the accommodations, second to none. The phone operators don’t just say, “How may I help you sir/madam?”. They actually mention your name: Encik So And So, or Ms. This and That.
I could have finished off more than three roles of film if I had a mind to do it. I wish I'd scanned some of the views I’d taken while i was there so I could show them to you.
Of course it wasn’t entirely perfect. There were hitches now and then, but everything is forgiven due to the charm of the place.
The cheapest room (maximum 2 adults and 2 children) is currently priced at RM520.00 a night. But if you ever manage to scrape up some savings for that special holiday, do give this place a try…
