Thanks for the effort! It's not easy to capture these photos under low light, reflection and other 'noises'.

No problems, Shahrial. Glad to share these, and to help promote the ACM a bit.

Hi Detlef, these kerises are part of the permanent exhibits at the the Singapore Asian Civilisations Museum.

I encourage you to visit the museum if you are in Singapore. Put aside a full day for the museum! there are many other good artefacts on exhition, and they are well curated with proper write-ups explaining what you are seeing.

Thank you Alam, this is now on my to-do-list when I am next time in Singapore!

Hi Blu,

The pictures got me wondering how you managed to pull it off. The staff gave me a stern look when I tried to snap pictures of 'Si Ginje' and the golden crown of Siak during the 'Sumatra - Isle of Gold' exhibition.
