The hundred-year-old ‘Leaning Tower of Pisa’ in Malaysia is compared to the Leaning Tower in Italy The 19th-century brick and wood building, slightly to the west, is called Teluk Anson, located in Perek, Malaysia. The tower’s design was inspired by Chinese architecture as the majority of the people in the town at that time were Chinese. Leong Choon Chong, Chinese contractor started construction in 1885, late 19th century. At that time, local people contributed to buy watches from JW Benson in Ludgatehill, London, England. The clock on the tower is used to view the time. The tower was tilted after the flood, weakening the ground Although viewed from the outside, the 25.5 meter tall tower looks like an eight story building, but it is actually divided into three floors with a large steel water tank on the top floor. Each floor is about 5 meters high, with a total of about 110 curved steps leading from the ground to the highest floor. After the floods of 1889 and 1895, the tower began to tilt to the northwest due to the weak ground. Furthermore, the weight of the water in the tank contributes to the tower’s inclination. However, the tower will not completely fall over. The watch is donated by local people to buy money Meanwhile, the leaning tower of Pisa in the city of Pisa, Italy started construction in 1173. The tower is 55.86 meters high from the ground up to the lower roof and 56.70 meters to the high side. From the ground up there were 294 steps and the wall of the tower was 4.09 meters thick at the foot of the tower, then gradually reduced to only 2.48 meters at the top. The weight of the whole tower is about 14,500 tons. While under construction, the tower had begun to tilt due to subsidence. To stabilize the tower structure not to continue to tilt, experts have used a number of geotechnical measures to keep the tower in the status quo. Unlike Pisa tower, Teluk Intan Tower in Malaysia used to have the function of storing water for use on site during drought or in case of fire. With its outstanding height, the tower is also a lighthouse to guide ships into Teluk Intan port. After Malaysia won independence in 1957, the tower became a national monument and no longer holds water as before. Today, after so many years, the clock still rings after 15 minutes. The leaning tower is now a symbol of Teluk Intan, becoming even more attractive because of its inclined profile, becoming a popular tourist attraction.

The Kalmyk mainly eat beef and lamb. They have a very unique way of cooking meat called khorkhog. Men will cut the flesh into pieces, leaving the bones intact. Then they put the meat in a tin or aluminum jar with vegetables, hot water and ice. While they rode on the grasslands all day, the stones would boil pieces of meat. So they had a plate of casserole when they stopped for lunch. Before the long trip or the coming winter, people prepare kyur dried meat again. They skillfully slaughter a cow or a sheep so that the whole meat of the animal fits its whole heart. The cook will dig a hole, fill it with coal, wood or dry manure, and burn it to ash. While the ash in the pit is still hot, the heart will be lowered and covered with ash. The men will fill the hole with earth and continue to light the fire above. The result is a piece of dried meat that is both soft and flavorful. Life on horseback has taught the Kalmyk not to give up any part of the animal. They especially value sheep and beef offal. The dotur soup that every family eats is made from sheep’s heart cooked with onions and a variety of herbs. Another favorite dish of shepherds and shepherds is semjer orasn elkn. This dish is made from beef liver or lamb liver wrapped in fat membrane that is scraped from the animal’s heart and then grilled over charcoal fire. Like other Central Asian peoples, the Kalmyk also drink milk tea. Drinks made of tea leaves, milk, butter, salt and nutmeg powder both keep warm and add energy to people. Sometimes they even put lamb fat in the tea. In the summer, the Kalmyk people often make yogurt kumys from sheep or horse milk. Scientists have proven that the probiotics in kumys have a very good effect on protecting the respiratory tract.
