''Alamat Lankapuri'' ((マレー語:علامت لڠكڤوري), 'News from the Island of Lanka') was a Malay language fortnightly publication in Jawi script, issued from Colombo, Ceylon.〔〔Hussein, Asiff.

Kuching, Sarawak: Persatuan Kesusasteraan Sarawak, 1983. p. 2〕 It was the first Jawi script Malay-language newspaper printed worldwide.〔〔De Silva, R. K.

Islamic Press Agency, 1986. p. 78〕 The newspaper was printed by lithograph.〔Kamaldeen, S.M. ''(Kamal’s love of books enlightened the Malay community )''〕
Baba Ounus Saldin was the publisher, editor and lithographer of ''Alamat Lankapuri''.〔〔Wimalaratne, K. D. G. ''(Personalities, Sri Lanka: A Biographical Study (15th-20th Century), 1490-1990 A.D., A-Z )''. Colombo, Sri Lanka: Ceylon Business Appliances Ltd, 1994. p. 119〕 Saldin set up a printing press by the name of Alamat Langkapuri Press, which would gain fame in the Muslim community of the island (which printed Muslim Malay and Arabu-Tamil literature).〔〔
The publication carried local and world news, as well as syairs, pantuns and other forms of traditional poetry.〔 Whilst primarily directed towards the Malay diaspora in Ceylon, the ''Alamat Langkapuri'' also had a readership in the Malay archipelago.〔Hosking, Rick. ''(Reading the Malay World )''. Kent Town, S. Aust: Wakefield Press, 2010. p. 19〕 Through the newspaper Saldin sought to promote Malay culture and language. He published various advertisements for imports of Malay literature in ''Alamat Lankapuri'', as well as advertisements for books to learn Malay and Malay-English dictionaries.〔''(Journal of the Malaysian Branch of the Royal Asiatic Society )''. 1991. pp. 109-110〕 Some of the notices and advertisements in the newspaper were written in Arabu-Tamil.〔Nordhoff, Sebastian. ''(The Genesis of Sri Lanka Malay: A Case of Extreme Language Contact )''. 2013. p. 281〕
The publishing of ''Alamat Lankapuri'' was not a profitable venue for Saldin's private finances.〔 It was closed down towards the end of 1870, due to insufficient number of subscribers.〔〔Siti Hawa Hj. Salleh. ''(Malay literature of the 19th century )''. Kuala Lumpur: Institut Terjemahan Negara Malaysia, 2010. p. 157〕 The publication was relaunched in 1877, but would close down definitely in the following year.〔〔 Saldin would started a new publication, ''Wajah Selong'' ('Light of Ceylon'), in 1895.〔 ''Alamat Lankapuri'' and ''Wajah Selong'' were the only two papers of their kind in the history of the country.〔Wright, Arnold. ''(Twentieth Century Impressions of Ceylon: Its History, People, Commerce, Industries, and Resources )''. New Delhi: Asian Educational Services, 1999. p. 318〕
