Kinda sounds like the point she was talking about, does Race matter?

Agree. Once the minister came in, I turned off. Such a person, regardless of race, is not representative of a cross-section of society. It hints of atypical self-promotion in the image, at the least.

Perhaps America would be the shining example :p

Just look north of Singapore will do

Tribalism is part of human nature. Being rich does not mean you stop being human and stop having primitive instincts, no matter how repressed they are.

Majority of Malaysia are Malays, they know it, some are Javanese, Buginese, Makassarese, Acehese, Mandailings, Sundanese, Ambonese, Minahasan, Bawaean, many intermarried with local Malays(Melayu), and some assimilated. Riau, Johor, Singapore, Melaka and Riau archipelago are melting pot. Riau in Sumatra are Malaya twin, they have chinese and tamil too, but most tamil in North Sumatra and Aceh. brought by Dutch and some come from Malaya. they are other malay who have middle eastern ancesry mostly Yemeni Arab, Gulf Arab from Iraq, intermarried with local Malay, almost non pure arab in Malaysia, indonesia, Timor and singapore, the Mari Alkitiri also Yemeni arab but intermixed with local Timorese. the name Timor it from Malay word for East, mean East East. Indian muslim mostly Tamil muslim, Gurjerati muslim, and Kerela muslim[mahathir grandfather], they still many in Penang, without mixed, but many of them mixed become Malay. the west and south coast of Peninsular place with many people, but in Kelantan, Terengganu, Kedah, Perlis, Pahang, also Malay of Southern Thailand in Santun, Yala, Narathiwat, Songkhla and Pattani very2 low in mixed with others race like Arab, persian, india, chinese or others Nusantaran group like Javanese, Sundanese, Acehnese, Buginese, Makassarese, Ambonese and others. Kelantan-Patani-Terengganu Malay very strong in their ethnics, they only like to stick with 'kelantanese malay, patani malay and terengganu malay" the archiecture of east coast like Kelantan-terengganu and patani are different, they used 'bumbung pemeleh", while rest of Malay used 'balai adat melayu" bumbung lipat kajang. the others malay sub-group like Minangkabau, from West sumtra, form a state in Negeri Sembilan, Minangkabau with Proto-Malay/orang asli Temuan and semelai intermarried and become 'Bidunanda' ethnic. and Minangkabau mixed with local Malay become negeri sembilan malay, the langauge of negeri smbilan malay more close to Jambi Malay and Bengkulu Malay, because of element of Malay, Minangkabau langauge are difficult to understand. others Malay group from Kalimantan/borneo is Banjar and Kutai, and other Brunei. in Singapore, Malay and Orang Laut(orang seletar, orang kanaq, orang kanaq) are outnumber by javanese, bugis, bawaen, arab-malay mixed and malay from johor and riau. Orang laut in singapore almost extict, same orang laut and orang asli in Riau, Jambi sumtra, Sakai in Riau number just 5000+

@Zhong Anthony Felix Xina lol

Yes, finally found this 💯

You mean in the place up north where the government practices institutional racism. Yeah, man. When the political leaders steal money and make racist statements they keep getting voted in again and again because they are the right skin. If you are honest and capable, you are still out cuz you are wrong skin.

ohhh minority with no chances ... like Malaysia

I agree with you..even tho Malaysia is for Malays..no.. when I interviewed for a job which Sino Singapore ... actually for the job for accountant..at the last question can I speak Mandarin.. what can I say economically Chinese control the economy in Malaysia

In Singapore, the races are all POC, with Chinese being the majority. In a way similar to what you said when a minority race(s) is successful, it's a victory for them. But then again, I don't think we see it has a competition to win but more towards "fairness". e.g. getting a job because you meet the relevant skills not because you can speak mandarin. One can aurge that speaking mandarin is a relevant skill. And there lies the advantage the Chinese has over the minority, right from the beginning.

But when there are too many Asians doing well in elite high schools and colleges, the Asians get lumped in with whites and it's no longer a victory for POC. Often when they say POC, they don't include Asians. They only mean Hispanics and blacks.

For me if an unvaxed person is successful it makes me proud

@@laughter95 yeah like there was a time in football coaching ppl critised Eugene Chung, an Asian for having the offensive line coach instead of a black coach and often times white passing Hispanics get excluded too due to "white privilege" the Hispanics they refer to are tanned / dark skinned Hispanics. makes me rethink the term "POC" constantly.

@@shanekiat2177 Is why we should not focus on skin color and instead look at merit and socioeconomic disparities, needs of communities that are not necessarily defined by melanation.

Agreed. I wonder if he felt pressured to portray "successful" minorities instead of everyday Malays.

Yeah when they do, they would know they are not even malay.

True

@Portofolio Film Yusuf Kurniawan My malay is well sketchy to understand this but ... check out this interview with bumi Putra Rockers. That AK47 guitar is amazing kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ebmIesVp1ZnDZYk.html

Well, in Malaysia, the official definition of Malay as a person who professes the religion of Islam, habitually speaks the Malay language, and conforms to Malay custom.

@@RambutanLaw does this look like malaysia to u

They have a point though. Was it really so tough to find pure blood Malays in SG?. Why most of the people here is like some sort of mixed. I understand why there are people who feel misrepresented even though your idea of "true Malay" is agreeably debatable.

.

Being a 'true' Malay comes from own cultural perspective. It is non-canonical experience could not be described based on text alone. Sir Frank Sweetenham has noted his observation of Malays race in Pulau Jawa, Peninsular Malaya and other parts of Nusantara back in end of 19th century. You could start reading from there (it is available online) and you could take some figure from the similarities drawn against current generation. This is purely for you to seek if you really asking for answer.

Learn the malay language la. It's singapore national language

No need shy. Just ask them. If they are really interested in doing a good food business they should be more than willing to introduce their dishes to new customer. That's how I discovered cow lung

They still live in the british colonial era 😀 There are Mexican japan persian Philippines vietnam thai korean indian nepal chinese foods But no Indonesian foods Nasi rawon / skul rawon has been written in 10 th century javanese inscription So stupid and ridiculous

Nasi Rawon is Javanese dish, Nasi Padang is Malay dish. It's just happened those foods were originated from a land which is now called Indonesia. Javanese, Malay = Ethnic, Indonesians = Nationality.

@@BlackScale86 are you still living in the british colonial era?😀 I'm gonna ask you Tom yum is malays food or thai food ? Nasi lemak is malays food or malaysian food ? Nasi ayam hainan is chinese food or singaporean food ?

Well basically majority of Malays are from the descendants of malay archipelago, Indonesia. That’s why some Malays on their IC race is boyanese, javanese etc But all group as one under malay.

@@Irkkan The term 'Malay Archipelago' itself created by British. The Sriwijayan call their place as 'Bhumi Melayu' not 'Kepulauan Melayu'.

What we know as Malays today were immigrants who moved from the Indonesian archipelago to the Malay Peninsula/Singapore in the 16th century. Honestly almost everything Malay has Indonesian origins (correct me if I'm wrong)

Indonesia only exists in 1945 but Malays have existed for thousands of years.

@@hueyenooi5174 not all malay peninsula people come from Indonesia im one of them my ancestors come from north peninsula of Malaysia and we don't have any relation with Indonesia

@@hueyenooi5174 you are totally wrong... Indonesia just exist after 1945.. it is a nationality just like Malaysian, Filipino.. this whole region is called Malay Archipelago, the modern day Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and Southern Thailand...

I think the way singapore generalize malay is just from whatever came from malay archipelago and they just don't don't mention it too specific. Just because u r too obsess on generalizing foods and cultures it doesnt make anyone else narrow-minded when they don't do the same.

@@cocoafea9880 malays is just a political term. most if not all are indonesians. i cant even tell the difference between indos and malays physical wise unless they're mixed

Singapore Malays and Indonesians share similar tradition and values, which is understandable that we share similar foods too. Take east asia as an example, ramen is commonly found in both Korea and China despite originating in Japan. So don't have to argue la, relax. We know where it came from too and that is all that matters.

@@maybona these are propaganda preying on people ignorance like Russia claiming there are no Ukraine.

Indonesian is a term created by George Windsor Earl that even he wasn't happy with. He preferred to call the area Malayunesia instead which makes more sense. Indonesia means Indian Archipelago while Malayunesia means Malay Archipelago. Read up on your history Indonesians.

It is the cultural and commercial gathering of Malay communities in Singapore.

@@khairiaris I see 🙂

Eh where..

where? What?

BUMIPUTRA

But in Malaysia even tho there is a so call bumiputra benefits or something like that you should see from this perspective. how many minority in malaysia given a chance to do business n succeed? there Malay/Chi/Ind in politic. but when u go to India how many malay or chi politic? same goes for china. are the minority been given the same right?

Alisha et al, I think the majority should ask this question. If parents adopt stepchildren on top of having own children, they have 2 approach choices on their stepchildren. One is give some, hold back some and at times act one way in public and act differently in private. The other is unconditional love, giving and consistent in actions and fair treatment between own and stepchildren. Let's be really transparent, the reality is the former rather than the latter actions. Try staying in a non Malay community and witness for yourself the positive and negative effects of the govt policy. What you see may imply success among non Malays but in reality there are a also lot of non Malays who barely get by and are struggling in their business and personal life. This is not made known publicly and because race minority numbers are small, it may not get the due highlight needed. I understand from a Malay perspective given my upbringing but not many Malays will understand and fathom a non Malay perspective. As long as race is still being harped on through direct or indirect political policies, the thread that holds the unity of the citizens will always be stressed and at times break. Singapore's model is not ideal too and I know of racial biases happening by and large within it's own communities just like Msia. Msia can do better than Sgp in every aspect but race based politics will hold back the nation from moving forward at a faster pace.

@@alishaaishahandayah4054 You are comparing an apple to an orange. Chinese and Indians in Malaysia have been with the Malays even before our Merdeka. Unlike Malay and Chinese in India, or Malay and Indian in China.

@@alishaaishahandayah4054 Stop being stupid and using China and India to compare. Before you ask how many Malays in politic there, why don't you ask how many Malays living there? Chinese and Indians have been living in Malaysia and Singapore for generations. Are you willing to migrate to other countries and work hard for generations over there? Don't forget the Chinese and Indians actually contributed to building Malaysia and Singapore. All the towns, cities, roads, infrastructure etc built with their blood sweat and tears. In fact, they were here before the country Malaysia was even in existence. Malaysia is formed from separate little kingdoms and Sabah and Sarawak.

Malayunesia is another name next to Indunesia that was proposed by George Samuel Windsor Earl to identify the archipelago.[27] It was a Greek translation of the Malay Archipelago also connected to the concept of Malay race, the inhabitant of the archipelago. It was said that Windsor Earl prefer the name Malayunesia (Malay Archipelago) instead of Indunesia (Indian Archipelago), because Malayunesia is an appropriate name for the Malay archipelago, while Indunesia can also refer to Ceylon (Sri Lanka) and Maldives. He also argues that Malay language is spoken throughout the archipelago.

So no difference between Vietnamese and Chinese they share similar culture.
