I do not have a 300 to try, but used my 205W instead. I have searched 'Dato Menteri' all in caps (shift + alphabet) and could find a list of Dato Menteri's. On the 205 (W) searches are not case sensitive.

thanks for your help Mr. Zamad, but still cannot find the street names in small letter; ex: Jalan Lambak at Kluang, Johore. i have to goto the map of Kluang town to search for it (allocates beside the railway).

See Screencaptures from my 205W, using capital letters to search for Jalan Lambak in Kluang Johor...

1. Since I am not in Kluang, I use the Where To >> Near (= A Different City) to search for POIs not at my present location.
2. I use CAPITAL Letters (Shift + letter) and started typing KLUANG.
3. I chose 'Kluang, JHR' for Kluang.
4. I selected POI, then
5. I selected 'Spell Name' to spell my required POI
6. Using CAPITAL Letters, I spelt Lambak.
7. Two Jalan Lambak appears in the List!
