The Malaysian Chinese are generally the only major ethnic group in Malaysia to use family names, though some Malay families use surnames as well. Most other groups, including the ethnic Malays, Orang Asli and the Bumiputera of Sabah and Sarawak, generally share a naming custom that includes the use of a personal name followed by a patronym name. Malay names Traditional Malay names were taken from one of a number of languages, or even a combination of two or more elements from these languages: * Malay such as Intan, Melati, Kiambang or Tuah * Khmer, Siamese or Cham such as Tam, Som or Lai * Javanese such as Ratnasari, Joyo or Kesuma * Sanskrit or Pali such as Wira, Darma or Wati Malay names are not to be confused with Malaysian ...

Stroke
A stroke is a medical condition in which poor blood flow to the brain causes cell death. There are two main types of stroke: ischemic, due to lack of blood flow, and hemorrhagic, due to bleeding. Both cause parts of the brain to stop functioning properly. Signs and symptoms of a stroke may include an inability to move or feel on one side of the body, problems understanding or speaking, dizziness, or loss of vision to one side. Signs and symptoms often appear soon after the stroke has occurred. If symptoms last less than one or two hours, the stroke is a transient ischemic attack (TIA), also called a mini-stroke. A hemorrhagic stroke may also be associated with a severe headache. The symptoms of a stroke can be permanent. Long-term complications may include pneumonia and loss of bladder control. The main risk factor for stroke is high blood pressure. Other risk factors include high blood cholesterol, tobacco smoking, obesity, diabetes mellitus, a previous TIA, end-st ...
