There is a real story behind this which Malaysians are not proud to discuss *sigh*. I saw recently in some documentary channel that he suffered alot of stress due to been shunned and has to attend to court for standing guarantee for a friend whose loan was defaulted. This is a shock to many of us when we saw the documentary and when i relayed to others, many find this fact hard to believe as these are not made public. - Red1 D Oon (talk) 03:02, 12 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not Tan Sri Datuk Amar, but Tan Sri Dr. P. Ramlee

Putting more than one of the federal or states title together is not a practice in Malaysia. It is because when you get a Dato' Seri but then awarded Tun, you will only display Tun, or the highest rank of the title. For instance, Tun Dr. Mahathir is the latest name, formerly known as Dato' Seri Dr. Mahathir (the 4th Prime Minister of Malaysia).

In P. Ramlee context, he has been awarded Datuk Amar and Tan Sri, but Tan Sri is the highest rank of the titles. Thus, he should bear only Tan Sri and not being attached with Datuk Amar together. It will also be superfluous and make the name look longer if all title awards be put together with his name. There is no "Tun Tan Sri Dato' Seri...." -- only the highest is displayed. Thus, P. Ramlee should bear only Tan Sri Dr. P. Ramlee.

Nevertheless, the most important is, the superfluous thing is not a practice in Malaysia, and only a few people do not notice about this. Master of Books (talk) 16:12, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
