A website to promote and publicise KAMPUNG JAWA MELAKA covering Jln Bunga Raya, Kee Ann, Pasar Baru, Kampong Jawa and Munshi Abdullah
The new owner of this Kampung Jawa area land opposite Hatten mall has started to demolish any standing buildings on the land.
The temple and other operators have also been asked to move out by the dateline.
A mixed development of commercial buildings and shops will be built soon.
The mosque at Bunga Raya Road has lighted up making the road more attractive.
If we can construct a gateway at Kee Ann Road entrance, the whole area will be more appealing at night.
Today, our first senior visitor graced our library.
1st senior citizen age 73 visiting. Place cooling, clean and comfortable....😁
About time we reactivate Kee Ann Road Melaka Food street again. It opened in 2019 until 2020 before the COVID.
To improve the traffic around Jalan Kee Ann and Jalan Pasar Baru, we can implement single way and double way around Hatten mall.
Cars can park at Hatten mall by using the single and double ways.
There will be a new makan place at Jalan Jawa.
Located besides the temple at the corner.
Before Hatten mall seeks tenants, Hatten mall should activate her 180 underground car parking area.
By doing so, more people will park here and increase people traffic.

✨ 重温 1965 年：马六甲武雅拉也路（Jalan Bunga Raya）的繁华旧时光 ✨
你能想象在 1960 年代马六甲最繁忙的马路中央，竟然赫然站着一头水牛吗？ 🐃
看看左边那些充满情怀的复古招牌与广告——三五牌香烟（555）、三洋电机（Sanyo）、埃索石油气（Esso Gas）还有百多鞋店（Bata），瞬间勾起满屏幕的时代感。 📺 ⛽ 👟
更让人感慨的是，当年的商铺无一例外全部开门营业，街头巷尾人声鼎沸。不像如今的景况，多数店面早已拉下铁闸、归于沉寂。 🏬 🔒
店柱上那些纯手工雕刻的原始中文字体依旧清晰可见。 🖌️
而那根高耸入云、仿佛在向天空交谈的老电线杆……跨越了半个多世纪的沧桑，至今依然傲然挺立在原地，见证着岁月的变迁。 🗺️

Revisiting 1965: The Bustling Days of Jalan Bunga Raya, Malacca ✨
Can you imagine a water buffalo standing right in the middle of Malacca’s busiest street back in the 1960s? 🐃
Look at the nostalgic vintage signs and advertisements on the left—555 Cigarettes, Sanyo, Esso Gas, and Bata shoes—instantly evoking the atmosphere of a bygone era. 📺 ⛽ 👟
What is truly poignant is that, back then, every single shop was open for business, and the streets were alive with the hum of the crowd—a stark contrast to today, where most storefronts have long since pulled down their shutters and fallen silent. 🏬 🔒
The hand-carved Chinese characters on the shop pillars remain clearly visible. 🖌️
And that old utility pole, towering high as if conversing with the sky... having weathered the changes of over half a century, it still stands proudly in its original spot, bearing witness to the passage of time. 🗺️
