Melaka After Dark: A Journey Of Rediscovery

Hosted by Shaukani - The Heritage Activist


Hi! “Apa khabar?” (How are you?) Born and bred in Melaka, someone who is known to be a proud Malaccan and love promoting our culture and heritage of this historic city. I have been hosting tours in Melaka for the last 28 years and my greatest accomplishment as a tour guide was being awarded Achievement Award for Contribution to Heritage and Leadership from The Oxford Center for Leadership, United Kingdom in 2009 and recognised by Tourism Malaysia as the Best Tour Guide (Excellent) for year 2010/2011. My aspiration has always been providing a great experience for my guests and instil a better understanding and a little more appreciation towards the heritage of Melaka. So, in 2015, I established a Non-governmental Organisation called the Persatuan Sahabat Muzium Melaka or Friends of Melaka Museums with a group of members who are passionate about sharing their knowledge and experiences back in 1940s to as many people as possible. A special shout-out to my team members; Eddie Chua & Colin Goh for the dedication in curating and hosting these authentic experiences in Melaka. I love connecting with fellow Malaysians and people from all around the world because I believe that we could learn so much from our culture and history, whilst we continue to improve the way we live at present and the future. I look forward to saying “Selamat Datang” (Welcome) to you and hosting this experience with you, your friends and family.

When I had a chance to travel to Melaka for just 2 days 1 night, the first thing I need to do is to get a good location hotel. I decided to choose the 3-Star Modern Heritage Hotel in Jonker Street ( Jalan Hang Kasturi ) ~ Timez Hotel. The second thing is to choose a good tour guide. I decided to go for Shaukani & Eddie from Buddyz for the ‘ Melaka After Dark’. My children & I met our tour guide at Queen Victoria’s fountain at 8.30pm. Within the 90 mins walking tour, Shaukini & Eddie brought us around the places we’re never been before and they talked about very interesting histories & stories we’re never heard before, which was very informative and eye-opening. Shaukani & Eddie were very friendly and knowledgeable about the history. We really love the way of both of them because they made history very fun to listen to , it is unforgettable and important details information for us to know. We managed to cover lots of beautiful & amazing places during the night. We had a fruitful ‘Melaka After Dark’ indeed.

I learned a lot about my own hometown through this walk. Eddie animated the story of how the historic core developed through details such as architectural features, the backlanes, and what temples can tell us about people. His love for the area is infectious. I really recommend this walk.

A complete eye opening! Mesmerized by the tales and history shared by Mr. Eddie. Such information can never be obtain through books. My husband and I enjoyed every minute of it and we are glad to take this tour. It’s completely unforgettable! Thank you Mr. Eddie for your enthusiasm and passion in sharing.
