The maps included in this patch is inspired from the Philippine culture and structures. Some of the Philippine trade marks that I saw on the maps are Jeepneys and Rizal Park. Okay so I only saw those two but maybe there are a lot more Pinoy inspired details out there that I missed. Look for them for yourselves.
All of the monsters on this new maps came from the rich Philippine myth. I don't need to elaborate on each of the monsters because their image directly depicts their image on our myth. But at some point some of their gestures were changed a bit to fit the Ragnarok World. For instance, the Manananggal on our myth is a woman who cuts herself in half leaving her lower body on a secured are while her upper body flies to look for prey. In-game it is carrying a giant injection which is something off from the myth but then again it is created to fit the Ragnarok World. Enjoy the images of these monsters and prepare to face them when they are implemented in your own servers. I heard that their difficulty fits the level of third jobs.
Tiyanak ~ Mangkukulam ~ Tikbalang
Buwaya ~ Engkanto ~ Bungisngis
Bangungot ~ Wakwak ~ Manananggal
Recently kRO released the image of the MVP monster for Ports of Malaya. It is called Bakunawa. Bakunawa is a giant sea serpent from our myth which swallows the moon and causes eclipse. It has a large image similar to Satan Morroc but in terms of power I have no idea how strong will this MVP would be. Maybe the size of this MVP is telling us how much power it has especially when you encounter it face to face.
Bakunawa
I'm not sure if pRO will go ahead in implementing this map after kRO before any other official servers just like what they did with other Global Project Map like Moscovia, Brasilis and Dewata. We'll be looking forward for this epic patch.

herbert is it true Port malaya has the monster Jejering/Jejeling/제제링(hoping you have unicode)
I'm not sure and I don't have any kRO account to confirm. But I know there is a monster called jejeling which is created together with the port of malaya patch. its sprite is a poring with a jejecap.
I can't wait for this patch/episode... Nice monsters, I can relate!
Wow! Finally the first Philippine Theme map of Ragnarok Online!
@Sky - True, there is. I have a kRO account but I can't go nowhere near port malaya since my character is still low level. >.<
Sir Herbert... I have made a character sprite which is for Conjurers or Summoners... do you have any advanced idea or detail if they have a plan of putting a pRO sprite?
Thnx...
KinG LenDion IV of Vehemence™ Valkyrie...
I'm a bit confused on your question. Are you asking if there is a plan on creating a job class called Conjurers or Summoners? No there isn't. I'm a mere player like you so I have no idea on pRO's future plans aside from what they are feeding us.
The only rumor that got at the moment is the so called 3rd class of Gunslingers which is called Cowboy. And possible new clasess branching from swordsman, thief etc on a patch called "Rise of the Helters". Though all of these are mere rumors until they are released officially. Other than that I have no more info on future job classes.
what i mean about my post is if they have a plan of putting our very own PRO sprite.. for ex. NinjaClass = JRo, TaekwonClass = S.Korea, Phils. = ???... anyways i hope you have an access or lets say "kakilala" from kRO or iRO... coz i want to send an entry or a proposal of a sprite. Here's what i made: http://gickr.com/results3/anim_b3945e99-6c08-a5b4-6514-b1b398300c55.gif ... I even have the skills which is kept with me for a moment... any suggestion for this one? thnx Sir Herbert.. More power to you... KinG LenDion IV of Vehemence™
Sorry but I don't have any connections or network on kRO, iRO and even pRO. I'm just a regular player you see.
As I have mentioned earlier kRO has no plans of creating an expanded job class for Philippines. Gravity decides for everything being released. I can see you have good intentions of creating a Pinoy theme job class but as I have mention Gravity decides on Ragnaroks future developments. Maybe you can try discussing these to our pRO GMs. The pRO GMs are responsible on requesting for Ports of Malaya patch. Lets see how it goes. Best of luck to you. =)
thx sir herbert... atleast the feeling of being ignored washes out... ahehehe... and by the way... would it be ok if i'll put this site to our Guild page in FB?... coz it seems your page is more reliable compared to others* more power and thnx for the reply... ^_^

Hindi ko alam ang plano ng mga GMs kung may new server. So far wala pa silang sinasabi kung magkakaroon ng bago.
tnx for the reply sir. sira na kase economy sa new loki sir e nakakatamad na. XD tnx ulit.
ienjoy mo na lang yung laro na hindi prinoproblema ang economy. =D

Thanks for giving additional info.
Changed the Bakonawa picture into a moving one. =)
Sir Herbert,
as stated above it was made by gravity as global project map.. so is it mean beside Philippines. The Other country with Ragnarok online had made also their own Country Mythical Map?
If that so, what about the Items.. is it possible to use on the RWC Competition? i mean items from Port Of Malaya Patch and their own Customized other country mythical map.
Global project map like port of malaya is not exclusive map for Philippines. The patch will also be available to other official servers so they will also have access to these items. Other countries had their own map too and they are now in our servers like Dewata for Indonesia, Brasilis for Brazil and others.
As for the items of RWC, every year Gravity makes a short list of items that can be used during competition. Yes it is possible to use it in competition as long as it makes it to the list of Gravity.
Very well said Sir Herbert, Thanks any way.
For that were expecting lot more exciting map to explore. Indonesia, Brazil, and here it come Port Malaya for Philippines.
Soon Thailand, US of America and so on.
@killbduz1322, I think they already have Ayothaya for Thailand. :D
Nice post. I'm really looking forward for this patch.

sir.. i patched my sakray last wednesday.. then i got the error GetNpcLocationRadius.. i can't play any servers.. do you have a solution for this?
Sorry I don't have a solution. There is a thread on the boards telling us not to patch sakray to prevent errors. maybe there is an existing problem in sakray.
The Philippine launch of Port Malaya will be next week, May 9. I can't wait!
