Excellent! I recalled mum saying grandma was chitty melaka. So I was trying to explain to my racist lecturer that peranakan refers to mixed race community with the local people and does not only involved baba-nyonya but also other races like Indian, Malay, Dutch. Oh well, I was put down with a big "No, you are wrong", on my first day of class. This one is for you Mr Desmond.

Please make more of such content to educate the new generation about our traditional mix marriage. Hi my fellow peranakan, i am peranakan nyonya here. ❤️

Love it love it love it!! My father is Dutch-Indo and my mom is Thai Chinese. My dad has never stressed us with his religion. We literally grew up with different faith but same hope. Two of my sisters are Muslims and my first sis is Buddhist and I’m a Unitarian. My mom is Buddhist. Who is a lady vegetarian lady. We speak Eng, Malay, Chinese and Thai. I am proud to be a Singaporean!

Whom we marry is none of anyone's business. Our goal is to be happy.

Wow...thanks for the upload. 30 yrs in Spore and I have not heard of Indian peranakans...until today.

please make a video about what Malay culture was really like before the Malays takes on the extreme interpretation of Islam.. or should that be before they decide to Arabized their culture in effect killing it.. so many are now so nostalgic for the time when Malay women wore the kebaya and no headwrapping..

The constitution needs to be challenged and destroyed. Coz every man and woman has a right to choose their ACTUAL beliefs and not have it imposed on them by a law. That’s called religious and cultural CONTROL.

@@megatonhammer4723 i'm so glad Singapore has very civilise laws that control silly bronze age religion like Islam.. and the silly new culture and mindset that it spawn.. the religion of Islam allows old man to marry children.. they've managed to convinced most of their women that their head is nothing more than an extension of their private part ''hence the need to wrap it up'' and not to mentioned cutting of human parts.. be careful what you wish for.. a rich modern technology state like Singapore should aim to eradicate this form of medieval barbarity at all cost..

Yes in the modern day, when one talk about Peranakan, they usually refers to Baba Nyonya.

BEAUTIFUL STORY ♥️

Thanks Nathan for pushing the formation of the peranakan indian association.

Great video. Just what I needed to for my history students when talking about diversity and transnationalism in Southeast Asia. Thanks for sharing.

Those people mindset should change,all r humans

Pindang...it's not true that pindang does not exist in communities other than the Chetti. Pindang is a Malay dish too. In fact I think that's how it was adapted by the Chettis.

I am a mix also I do face identity crisis when relearning more about my additional indian mix from my paternal grandmother My Paternal Grandmother’s grandfather Gulam Maidin is from Tamilnad South India (Said to come from Nagore, Nagapattinam) married to a mix Indian-Malay woman who follows strong Malay culture who her Malay ancestors come from Pulau Kelapas. Gulam Maidin and his wife have many daughters and a son, the youngest daughter is my Great Grandmother Bibi Jahora Gulam Maydin, she is 75% Indian and 25% Malay but she register document herself Malay instead of rules following her Gulam Maidin Indian father. Bibi Jahora is my Paternal grandmothers mother. My Paternal Grandmother married to a Javanese Indonesian whose his parents come from Madiun, Java. giving birth to my dad, aunt and younger uncle. My Mum is from a mix Malay-Arab Father Hj Minhat bin Abu himself from a Javanese father and half Arab Malay Mother and my mum’s mother is a Nyonya Chinese.

And there's me. Indian chitty and peranakan chinese mix

I'm peranakan X indian. My dad is indian and my mum was peranakan X chinese. I'm not even sure what I identify as at this stage...

‘Gua’ and ‘Lu’ is how people in Jakarta speak hahaha

gua and lu is used in jakata too

Nee ann poly take note ah take note

Thanks for clarifying. It i cultural practices and not race I guess. I might be wrong.

Malay are genetically diverse, some look like Chinese and some look like Indian, and some look like Arabs. Therefore Malay is not a race too, but a cultural identity. In the constitution of Malaysia, anyone who speak Bahaha Melayu, practice Malay culture and is a Muslim is qualified to be a Malay lol. 😂 I think some of the people I know are definitely qualified to be Malay haha.

Chitty derives from the Tamil word Chettiar, an ancient caste in Tamil Nadu, India.
