Museum waiting for more Malaysian gifts

2 days ago

While working in Malaysia some time ago, I learned that the State Museum of Oriental Arts in Moscow had almost no artefact from Malaysia. This prompted me to do my best to add to and expand the Malaysian collection at the museum. So every time I went back to Moscow on vacation, I brought several pieces of batik from Kelantan and Terengganu as gifts for the museum.
