MENDAKI: Cahaya M cube

I found this cube while I was rummaging through the mess in my cupboard, and there’s no better timing than now to read it coz I’m learning Malay! 🙂 I received this 2 years ago when I volunteered at the opening ceremony of MENDAKI‘s learning centre: Cahaya M. I couldn’t figure out what was written on it then, and decided to keep it coz it looked interesting. Finally, I can now decipher the Malay inscriptions on the cube!!! (I sound like I’m some archaeologist who has just unearthed a historical treasure, like what happened in the Mummy)
