I signed up for an intensive translation course at a local institute recently - it is the only instititute in Malaysia that has the power to issue a certificate for translators - and I really wanted to ace the exam.
I looked at my collection of literature and realised; for having relied on technology so much, I've neglected to keep a copy of dictionary, and as a native Malay speaker I never even considered of buying a Malay dictionary.. like ever!
Yet two weeks of intensive course left me with no chance to visit a book store, and I found out that the institute has ran out of its copies of the necessary dictionaries. The lecturers recommended going online, and I found Kamus Dewan (the dictionary of the Malay-speaking world) and it costed RM29.90 only at this local website, e-sentral.com!
I grabbed one using my hub's account and device, and phew. What a relief.
e-sentral is a a clean website, sells a bunch of e-books online and you can find so many genres to scour. The best thing about the site is that registration et al is easy, and they're even offering some mags free upon your registration.
Now. If only I can find out about my exam results quickly enough, that'd be super!
