Nakhoda is the captain of a ship. This beautiful word in the Malay language is still used today to describe seafaring folks in the Malay archipelago. Featuring the Ceplok motif, depicting the destiny of a person resting on his/her honest work.
Our take on Nakhoda is in how we steer our lives in the direction of becoming: Unafraid, with deep faith and courage.
