interesting... it is arabic alphabets written in bahasa melayu (malay) with arabic signs which is not normally used in malay words written in arabic script.
Also, the alphabets are writen separately which is not the usual case where certain alphabets can be connected.

From the rather poorly written alphabets I guess it is written by someone not very adept in writing arabic script and the use of signs above and below each alphabet is either to make it simpler for readers to read or the writer wants to make it look like quranic verses?

The first few words read

Bahawa ini surat maka di wasilkan(?) nya ke bawah duli ...

Here is a letter ??? to his highness... ???

I can't read many of the writings but it would be interesting to get some one to translate it fully.
