What a great video and Kennie is a great presenter. My Mama was a Nonya. I just visited Penang’s Peranakan Mansion Museum and hope to visit your museum soon!

That's right, what you mean is that Indonesia is not just called the Indian archipelago. Indonesian people don't like using the word Indon, But we prefer to be called Indo people because in ancient times there were many mixed marriages between Europeans and local Indonesians so that the community was called Indo people. The word Indo doesn't mean they are of Indian descent or are Indians either, so don't misunderstand this 😂😊

The ornamentation and luxury evident in the displays speaks to the economic colonization and collaboration with the colonizers at the expense of the inlanders.
