Description

The Malay worldview, precious and inestimable, is under threat in the face of 20th century globalisation and greed. Tiger Sanctuary, Port Dickson, is sacred ground to the devout Muslim fishermen whose ancestors have lived there since time immemorial. 

The two guardians who preserve the sanctuary's innocence Ummah Ibrahim, the Spirit Guide, and GrandSire Long Claws, a white Sumatran tiger. They keep in harmony the larger multi-racial community who revere the Supreme Being. But this idyllic haven is poised for pillage. 

With exploitation from 16th century European invasions and the Japanese occupation in WWII, history has come full circle. Malaya's own avaricious sons lust for her bountiful wealth. 

As the strings of political intrigue and fanaticism are pulled, Islam is hijacked. Tiger Sanctuary, pure and lovely, is stained red.
