About

The Royal Pahang Weave Foundation celebrates fine craftsmanship from Malaysia.

The Royal Pahang Weave is a Malaysian heritage textile known locally as Tenun Pahang. Tenun means to weave in the Malay language. The Foundation was originally founded by Her Majesty Queen Azizah as part of her initiative to preserve the thousand-year old craft of silk-weaving from her Royal seat in Pekan, Pahang. Her multi-layered approach to reviving and preserving this craft involved a close partnership with the Prison Department in Malaysia to upskill inmates, educating them in the traditional techniques of weaving silk.

She then founded a company named Cheminahsayang, to offer trained prison inmates gainful employment upon their release. The company has now become a space for social inclusion, as both released inmates and professional weavers of the highest calibre work together.

Under Her Majesty’s patronage, the Foundation has become the leading craft organisation in Malaysia to promote fine craftsmanship, both locally and internationally.
