@user-jt3dw6vv4x

Жыл бұрын

Sri Lankan Malays have had a deep impact on Sri Lankan society. They have contributed a significant amount to Sri Lankan culture and identity that outweighs the size of their community. Here are a few examples to learn more about them: 1. Cuisine: A very large part of the Sri Lankan cuisine is composed of dishes that were created by Sri Lankan Malays or based on dishes from the Malay peninsula and Indonesia. Some of these foods include sambol, kaha bath (nasi kuning), lamprais, dodol, wattalapan and seenakku (cheena kueh). 2. Settlement: There were three major waves of Malay migrants to Sri Lanka. The first two waves were led by Malays who were Buddhist and settled along the coasts of Sri Lanka, especially in the southeast. They intermarried with the locals, contributing Malay genetic admixture to coastal populations in Sri Lanka. This is part of the reason why you can find Malay-like phenotypes among Sri Lankans who don't identify as "Malay". Additionally, there are theories that certain Sinhalese surnames indicate that a Sinhalese person has Malay ancestry. The most recent wave of Malays were the Malay and Javanese Muslims who are a recognised separate group in Sri Lankan society and came during the colonial era. The belief among Sri Lankan Malay historians is that a very large portion of Sri Lankan people have at least some Malay ancestry due to generations of intermixing, meaning the Malay population in Sri Lanka is much larger than the official stats. Historical estimates also claim Colombo (the capital of modern Sri Lanka) was once 50% Malay during the pre-British colonial era (Dutch and Portuguese). The neighbourhood of Slave Island (known as Kampong Kertel to the local Malays) is Colombo's traditional Malay neighbourhood and was at one point suggested that it be renamed to "Malaytown". 3. Culture: Malays have contributed to aspects of Sri Lankan culture beyond food including the introduction of batik (which is now a quintessential part of Sri Lankan identity) as well as traditional garments such as the redde and hatte dress of Sinhalese women and sarong among other things.

We love our Malays

As a Sinhala Buddhist i wholeheartedly feel for the Malay community in Sri lanka. We really have taken so much from them with very little credit given. As she said they have given us so much not only food. Even batik. We have a significant batik industry in our country and we also have made it as our own. Many Sinhala Bhudhists wear batik clothing as it is integral part of our culture. Also many people dont know that it was the Sri lankan malays who introduced the drums to the island. We use the rabban which is a large drum used on our new years and also many drums are used for our Kandyan dancing also Kandyan Perahara which is one of the biggest Bhudhist cultural and historical parades. So it is not just food the Sri lanka malays community has truly given so much. Big thanks to best ever food review show for coming to Sri lanka and painting the real picture. P.S i didnt mean to upset anyone i just wrote what i felt and know. I have history masters from peradeniya university. There are so many books with records at the university also some are locked up at the dalada maligawa historical records about these people and what they have given to Sri lanka. Anyway please try to read the book by professor, Wijerathna Dissanayaka P.H.D- IPSRALI RABAN PADA SAHA BERA PADA.

@govithabang8912

Жыл бұрын

When the lady in this video says that the Malay community in Sri Lanka is 'dying', she does not mean that the Malay people are being put to death. The Malay community in Sri Lanka is very small and, as a result, people of the Malay community frequently marry people from other Sri Lankan communities, - as the Malay lady goes on to explain later in the video. As such, the number of people who are purely of Malay origin is reducing in Sri Lanka. This should not be viewed as undesirable. It is, after all, the right of every person in Sri Lanka (and elsewhere) to enter into marriage with any person they wish to irrespective of the other person's race. Sri Lankan Malays tend to be very sociable and, unlike other Sri Lankan Muslims, are more open to associating with people of other Sri Lankan communities. The Malay people in Sri Lanka are very musical and they also often engage in a variety of sports. These qualities lead to Sri Lankan Malays associating much more with other Sri Lankan communities than other Sri Lankan Muslims. These associations, which usually start off on the basis of friendship, not infrequently take on romantic connotations leading to marriage. As such, over time, the number of 'mixed' Malay people in Sri Lanka has increased while the number of 'pure' Sri Lankan Malay people has declined. Another point to note is that, though the people of this community are generally known and referred to as 'Malay' this does not necessarily mean that they are all from Malaysia. Many Sri Lankan Malays are originally from Indonesia, especially from the main island of Jawa in Indonesia. Sri Lankan Malays have played an important role in Sri Lanka's history and are an integral and inseparable part of Sri Lankan society. Their difference from other Sri Lankans only adds to the value of all Sri Lankans and they are a beloved aspect of Sri Lankan society. They are as Sri Lankan as anything you will find in Sri Lanka.

The memories of Sri Lankan food evoke a cupboard full of spices and rich curries that bring together families. Sri Lankan food is an expression of the country's rich history and is full of delightful surprises, just like the island itself. Characterised by vibrant colours and fragrant aromas, every dish, from main meals to desserts and cakes, makes use of the country's bounty of fresh spices. An ordinary Sinhalese curry, for example, can contain up to thirteen herbs and spices: chillies, coriander, cumin, curry leaves, fennel, fenugreek, garlic, ginger, lomongrass, lime, onion, pandanus leaf and turmeric. It is no wonder, then, that spices are used by Sri Lankan people with such ease, not only creating food that is unique and interesting, but also accessing their healing properties as part of Ayurvedic medicine. Cheers, Domenico.

@@Contractor48 They were from the Moor community from a city in eastern Sri Lankan that has a Muslim-majority population. Moors are different to Malays, though there is intermarriage between them due to shared religion. The native language of the Moors is Tamil and the native language of the Malays is Sri Lankan Malay. Having said that, I just want to say the Moor community actually warned the Sri Lankan government about rising extremism in their community. They practice a form of Islam that is primarily Sufi influenced and is more similar to the form of Islam practiced in other parts of South Asia (e.g. India and Southeast Asia (e.g. Myanmar, Thailand). However, due to a lot of Moors travelling to the Middle East to work, a large section became conservative and adopted Arabic customs and interpretation of Islam (Wahhabism). The situation is similar to what has happened in some Southeast Asian countries to the east of Sri Lanka like Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and the Philippines where large sections of the local Muslim populations have become very conservative against the South/Southeast Asian interpretation of Islam.

I'm someone who's born and lived in Malaysia all my life yet I had no idea there were a Malay community in Sri Lanka. The food there has a tinge of authentic Malay food. You can tell it's evolved yet somewhat still has that original essence. The pittu or 'putu bambu' (flour, shredded coconut and maybe sugar? cooked in bamboo) though isn't easy to find in Malaysia. It has faded away and replaced by RM1 fried chicken, smoked bbq chicken wings and milk tea boba, these modern roadside snacks are everywhere. I haven't seen those putu bambu in years.

This episode was outstanding.. love it🥰🥰🥰

“Who cleaned this” “My aunt doreen” “Ok I trust her” 😂😂 comedy

The oxtail is one of my favourite preparations. Liked it how the prepared it there as well. Great episode. Sri Lanka has been in turmoil so long.. hope they find peace soon

Since I started watching these shows I've never lost a touch with the world beyond Africa. The bestest show ever 🔥

New thing i learnt about Sri Lanka. Kudos Ruzaina and Sonny. Much love from Malaysia ❤

This is amazing. Loved watching it 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Thanks for given good reviews about Sri Lanka ♥️

If you notice, they dont touch the food with their left hand. It puts left handers in a bit of a pickle, but traditionally in India SL etc etc left hand is used to wash your behind, and not for anything else.

the train rides in sri lanka are some of the most scenic i've been to, along the coast, the central highlands, going through tea fields. beautiful

Another great episode!!! Thanks gang

@theminoritytaste You are phenomenal RUZAINA! Lots of love! You spoke out your heart! I'm from the majority of the Sri Lankan community yet with due respect my father guided me since childhood to associate and share our values of culture and food with the Muslim neighbors. Beef Chukka was one of my favorites made by my neighbor's aunt. And @BestEverFoodReviewShow your shows are the best to get into real street food and deep minority culture delicacies. you are super awsom and off the beaten path! good luck.

Thank you so much for coming our country during this difficult time.

I love it so much, to learn so much about other cultures and foods and so on. Amazing channel Sonny! Keep on going 😄

I Love this channel. Learn a lot . Different foods and the cultures. It is really amazing. Thank you all so much. Much love…… Peaceeeee✌🏼

Sonny, you and your team are a true treasure. ☮

Sunny Man is the MAN! Been watching your videos for as long as i've watched food videos/reviews. In fact, your videos is probably the first or among the first i've watched, introduced to me by my brother. And i've started liking watching food contents because of you. You're awesome, and have definitely given the people around the world a piece of acknowledgement on everything from Food to Culture to People. 🗣️🗣️🗣️👍🤝

Thank you for coming to Sri Lanka ❤, and yes we all are Sri Lankans, we love to live in peace and harmony, but as she said politicians misuse this diversity of people just to win their elections and ruin the country. and I'm really proud of Mis. Ruzaina and her personality as a Sri Lankan. 💞

Thank you Sonny for visiting Sri Lanka. Hope you had the chance to cover the traditional Sinhalese cuisine as well, which is symbolic to Sri Lanka that's enjoyed by most of the Sri Lankans. Iconic dishes like the Ambul Thiyal, Hathmaluwa, Polos Achcharu and the variety of food from the east and the south of the country simply slipped off your trip, and also the staple 'rice and curry' that you should've digged your fingers into! I assume Ruzaina did her research and all but it looks like she could only show you what she had experience with and was comfortable with. So maybe next time, hope you get to eat some black pepper wild boar and drink some toddy when you come to the hearts of Sri Lanka. ❤️ Much love.

The fact that this comment speaks of wild boar on this particular episode is really wild. Got likes too. I mean i saw a few racially motivated jabs at the co host probably by Shrilanka peeps but this comment is straight outta Mississippi!. Subtle undertone racism at its finest!.

Traditional Sinhalese cuisine is not that different from traditional Indian cooking, which is common all over the world, though Indian cuisine has far greater variety than Sri Lankan cooking. An exception could be seafood, in which I feel Sri Lankan cuisine has the edge. Certainly for mutton and chicken dishes, Indian cooking has much better dishes and great variety. Even in vegetarian cooking, Indian cooking has a very wide range of dishes compared to Sinhalese cooking. In all honesty, being a Sri Lankan and having eaten Sinhalese cooking most of my life, I find Indian cooking way better. The cuisine of Sri Lankan Malays is very special because it is different from most other types of cooking which I have come across. I have to admit, though, that I have not eaten most of the dishes shown in this video. They look absolutely to die for.

@@jamesccohen You know I didn't pick up on it. I made my comment, which was entirely culinary and then read your comment and it clicked. The problem we have in Sri Lanka, is that we do not travel much because it is far too costly for Sri Lankans living in Sri Lanka and our education system has not evolved at all from the time we were ruled by the Brits. As a result, we are under-educated but don't realise we are, until we travel. This person is very likely someone who is 50+ years of age, has lived his/her life entirely in Sri Lanka and has had 11 years' education entirely in Sri Lanka. Nothing can be done to change that kind of mindset, not even brain surgery. On the other hand, the Internet has opened the younger generation of Sri Lankans to another world outside of Sri Lanka and they think very differently from their parents who blindly followed their own parents. So, there is still hope for my country.

Sonny ur videos r not just videos..they r like documentaries...lovely content

Im a huge fan of u we are really appreciate to you having a wonderful time with us and show my country to the world

one of my favorite episode , home food looks great !

I'm a Sinhala Buddhist represents the majority of the country. By the way RozAina, you are truly deserve full of respect and all the rights or all the dignity from the country. Don't think you guys are like minority or the underlay of the society at all the time. Please do your best to the country as we all belong to at every time. Your so humble and optimistic girl. Keep it up the good work. Best of luck. Best ever food review show shout out to your success ✨👍
