Officially opened by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong in June 2005, the
Malay Heritage Centre (MHC) provides wonderful cultural exposure and
learning opportunities for visitors of all ages and interests. Situated
amidst the Istana Kampong Gelam, Gedung Kuning and the surrounding
Kampong Gelam precinct, the Centre acts as a vital heritage institution
for the Malay community in Singapore. Through its exhibits, programmes
and activities, the Centre hopes to honour the past while providing a
means for present-day expression. The Malay Heritage Centre is presently
under the management of the National Heritage Board in partnership with
the Malay Heritage Foundation.
