Tatler Malaysia - May 2026

Bu sayıda

This month we had the honour of spotlighting the formidable Gnanalingam family on our cover: matriarch Puan Sri Siew Yong alongside her daughter Shaline Gnanalingam and daughters-in-law Shirieene Hajamaideen and Kelly Gnanalingam. There is no one true way to be a great mother, as exemplified by the multilayered portrait of motherhood we received after speaking to all four women about their journeys. Plus: meet the winners of our Front & Female Awards 2026, who are breaking new ground and advancing women across so many different fields. We also honoured the most exciting restaurants, bars and hotels in Tatler Best 2026. Some of the best moments from this issue are quiet ones—stepping inside neighbourhood bookstore Tintabudi, which celebrates 10 years this year . Exploring the Nyonya restaurants who continue to preserve and protect a traditional cuisine that tastes indisputably of home. The memories of the renowned heart surgeon who founded Institut Jantung Negara.
