New Straits Times, 3 July 2008
Heritage Commissioner Prof Datuk Dr Zuraina Majid has skeletons in her closet.
But this does not mean that she harbours dark secrets from her past which she wants to keep under wraps.Instead, Zuraina is literally keeping eight skeletons in her office.
The skeletons are prized relics — 6,000-year-old Neolithic human skeletons from Gua Cha, Kelantan, which were brought back to Malaysia after a long stint abroad in January.
