Penantian penduduk Kampung Kabai di Kemboja selama lima tahun untuk memiliki masjid sendiri berakhir.
SERAMAI kira-kira 200 keluarga penduduk Islam di Kampung Kabai, Kemboja melahirkan kesyukuran dan gembira apabila impian untuk mendapat masjid sendiri tercapai apabila masjid itu sudah siap dibina sepenuhnya oleh NGO Antarabangsa.
Masjid yang mampu memuatkan kira-kira 600 jemaah lelaki dan 200 jemaah wanita itu mula dibina pada awal Januari lalu dan siap sepenuhnya pada akhir Oktober membabitkan kos kira-kira USD100,000.
Dikenali sebagai Masjid Al-Mansoriah itu dibina diatas tanah seluas 3 ekar oleh kontraktor tempatan yang dilantik dan berjaya menyiapkannya dalam tempoh 10 bulan seperti yang ditetapkan.
Pengerusi dan Ketua NGO Antarabangsa, Datuk Dr Mustapha Ahmad Marican berkata, masjid itu mempunyai keunikan tersendiri kerana kos pembinaannya yang paling murah iaitu USD100,000 dan warna masjid berilhamkan dari Masjid Sultan Mohamad ke-5 di Labuan, Sabah yang keseluruhannya berwarna biru.

“Justeru, saya menyeru penduduk Kampung Kabai ini dapat memanfaatkan sebaik mungkin kemudahan masjid ini dengan bekerjasama menjaga aspek kebersihan dan kesucian masjid ini selain menggunakannya untuk memupuk perpaduan sesama masyarakat Islam.
“Kampung ini juga mempunyai penduduk Islam dan bukan Islam tetapi mereka amat rapat misalnya setiap petang mereka bermain bolasepak bersama dan pergi ke kebun bersama.
“Inilah contoh yang perlu kita ikuti dan saya harap penduduk dapat menghidupkan masjid ini dengan pelbagai aktiviti keagamaan dan bergotong-royong membersihkan masjiid supaya masjid sentiasa bersih dan cantik,” katanya dalam kunjungan ke Kemboja, baru-baru ini.
Sementara itu, Ketua Kampung Kabai, Ayub Isa berkata, pihaknya amat berterima kasih kepada NGO Antarabangsa kerana usaha gigih menjadikan impian penduduk memiliki sebuah masjid menjadi kenyataan.
“Kami semua akan memastikan masjid ini dijaga dengan baik dan penduduk di sini sudah lama berharap mempunyai sebuah masjid. Hari ini kami bersyukur kerana mendapat sebuah masjid yang cantik berwarna biru dan warna ini jarang sekali kita lihat di Kemboja,” katanya.
Mustapha menambah, masjid itu adalah masjid ke-5 yang dibina oleh NGO Antarabangsa di Kemboja dan pihaknya akan berusaha membantu masyarakat Islam Kemboja tetapi pada masa sama berharap masyarakat Islam di negara ini juga berubah.
“Kita perlu berusaha dan jangan terlalu mengharap pada orang semata-mata. Kita mesti berubah untuk meningkatkan taraf kehidupan kita barulah kita boleh menjadi contoh daripada segi kerjasama, muafakat dan hidup dalam suasana harmoni.
“Saya juga berharap lebih ramai generasi muda dapat datang ke masjid kerana kita juga membina kemudahan tempat bersukan dan menggalakkan penduduk kampung berniaga setiap kali ada acara bermain bola sepak,” katanya sambil menambah ini adalah salah satu sumber pendapatan yang boleh dimanfaatkan oleh penduduk kampung.

From Kings and Queens to entrepreneurs, many of the most prominent and wealthy collectors of the 20th and 21st century have been beguiled by the lure of a Fabergé Egg.
WITH just 50 pre-1917 Imperial Eggs completed, these exceptionally precious creations are some of the most valuable and coveted objects ever to have been made.
Now, in a contemporary fashion, a new Fabergé Egg has been created. Two of the world’s most esteemed houses of luxury have joined forces to create one unique objet d’art, for one discerning patron.
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and Fabergé proudly announce the ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Fabergé Egg.
For the first time in history, an iteration of the Spirit of Ecstasy, the enigmatic mascot that has adorned Rolls-Royce motor cars since 1911, is cocooned in an exquisite, contemporary, Fabergé Egg.
The design, conceived by Rolls-Royce Designers Stefan Monro and Alex Innes and rendered by Fabergé Lead Designer Liisa Talgren, has been brought to life by Fabergé workmaster Paul Jones, creating a contemporary interpretation of one of the world’s most fabled and prized possessions.
Spirit of Ecstasy Faberge Egg Sketch RR
The commissioning of a Rolls-Royce motor car is often a seminal moment for the patron, so too is the commissioning of a Fabergé Egg.
Indeed, this ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Fabergé Egg, the second to be commissioned in the ‘Imperial Class’ since 1917 – a category reserved only for Fabergé’s most illustrious creations – celebrates the history, heritage and legend for which both Rolls-Royce and Fabergé have been revered over more than a century.
Both brands have navigated the vicissitudes of time and continue to produce the apogee of modern, highly sought after, true luxury items. The Egg is destined for the residence of a great collector of both brands.
The Egg connects the elements that lie at the very core of each marque – the Spirit of Ecstasy, the illustrious muse that has guided each Rolls-Royce motor car for over a century, and the form of a Fabergé Egg, the pinnacle of ornamental expression.
The masterpiece resulting from this distinguished collaboration reflects the extraordinary attention to detail and the consummate craftsmanship for which both brands are renowned to this day.
Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, commented, “’The Spirit of Ecstasy’ Fabergé Egg was born from an intrinsic desire to further the realms of Bespoke personalisation.
Responding to the continuing demands of patrons in search of unique and cherished possessions, a designer at the House of Rolls-Royce sketched an Egg, igniting a fascination that will undoubtedly become one of the most collectable items of modern times.”
A team of seven craftspeople from Fabergé undertook the challenge of fabricating the design using the finest materials married with their extraordinary skill as artist jewellers.
At first glance, the Egg is unmistakable in its character. Design cues from Fabergé’s heritage are masterfully woven into the intricate design which stands at 160mm and weighs just 400g, with the Egg harnessing the ‘surprise and delight’ attributes for which Imperial Eggs are celebrated.
The Egg rests on an engine-turned, hand-engraved, purple enamel guilloché base of 18 karat white gold. Arms of rose gold define the shape of the Egg, acting as a protective chamber for the Egg’s precious inhabitant.
Upon operating the movement via a discreet lever at the base of the stand, a sense of theatre ensues as the boughs open to present the fine figurine of the Spirit of Ecstasy, hand-sculpted in frosted rock crystal, standing nobly in her opulent surrounds. The rose gold vanes, embellished with nearly 10 carats of round white diamonds, resolve into swathes of natural amethyst weighing over 390 carats, specially
Fifty Imperial Easter Eggs were created for the Russian Imperial family between 1885 and 1916. These creations are inextricably linked to the lives of the Romanov family. Ten Eggs were produced from 1885 to 1893 during the reign of Emperor Alexander III; a further 40 were created during the rule of his dutiful son, Nicholas II, two each year – one for his mother the dowager, the second for his wife. If we explore the great archives of Rolls-Royce, we find that Tsar Nicholas II was indeed also a patron of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
The ‘Spirit of Ecstasy’ Fabergé Egg will be premiered at the House of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, West Sussex, England, to a host of distinguished guests and venerable patrons of the marque on 23 October, 2018. The Egg will then be on public display in Fabergé’s London window this Christmastime.
