摘要：Malay wisdom, by and large, is circumscribed in the traditional aphorisms. While being a Malay certainly hinges on a necessary spatio-temporal existence, there should be some commonalities in being a Malay that satisfy the sufficient requirements of more than being human: the Malay Akal Budi or conscientiousness, for instance. In this paper, the author examines some aphorisms, which points to the holistic unity, harmony and social cohesion underlying their conscientiousness and he argues for their importance in shaping a more humanistic philosophy in tandem with the Malay traditional belief and wisdom.
