Lee Kuan yew the 1st PM of Singapore is Peranakan, that why he spoke fluently in Malay, included his children, his Son the 3rd PM also can spoke Malay

[@tinateh]

Safuwan Fauzi the old generation all spoke fluent Malay, including the immigrants. When I started working in hospital in the early 2000s, the very old cohort of elderly (70-90 year olds) could mostly speak Malay. After the Speak Mandarin Only policy, none of the younger Chinese cohorts could speak Malay. The young Malays are also losing their grasp of the language with so much focus on English and Mandarin just because of economics. However there has been a rising interest in learning the language among the young today.

@@tinateh It Sad, it same with South Thailand especially in Phuket(Malay called it Tanjung Salang), Krabi(Ayer kelubi in Malay), Nakhon SI Thamarat(Ligor in Malay) the younger generation and after WWII generation cannot speak Malay they just Sunni Muslim, wearing Malay traditional clothing, only in 5 Province in Deep South Like Santun, near Perlis, Yala, Pattani, Narathiwat and Songkhla(Singgora in Malay) can speak Malay in Patani-Kelantanese dialect. but most younger spoke thai more. It same with Malay Cham in Southern Vietnam when Lost totally in 1834, they fleet to Cambodia majority of it in Cambodia, some in fleet in South Thailand because of Malay muslim population under Malay Sultanate of Patani and Songkhla. some fleet to Malaysia(Malaya) in Kelantan state, Malay replace by Khmers or vietnamese, and they speak Cham, the langauge close to Achenese and Malay; the Cham and Malay just spoke by older generation and the younger generation who learn at Islamic school, they cloth like sarong, songkok, tudung, selendang, batik just like in Malaysia, Southern Thai, Brunei, Cocos and Indonesia but they lost not just land but language. before that they spoke Malay as lingua franca. just like Maluku Sultanate of Tidore and Ternate. 1 Malay(Ambon Malay) 1 is native language "Austronesian or Malayo-Polynesian family)

Safuwan Fauzi sedih kan..harap indonesia,malaysia dan brunei jaga bahasa dan budaya kita

[@safuwanfauzi5014]

@@gamergenix5429 btl sepatutnya bahasa, budaya n senibina/architecture juga. Kekalkn cnth kita boleh ambl teladan Jepun/Japan, Korea, Thailand dan Burma yg kekal dgn senibina, bumbung, binaan, budaya. Bahasa, tulisan. Xsalah nk moden seiring dgn bangsa2 lain tp jgn lupa asal.usul n budaya adat kita melainkan kita mmg xada adat n budaya sperti berlaku di Australia.

Safuwan Fauzi setuju2

In reply to Alex King, the popular trend of incorporation of Dangdut and middle eastern influences by dondang sayang groups just reinforces the need to retain this art form in its traditional form, whether by the Malays or the Peranakan, it matters not. At least Melayu tulen is not dead yet.

I love that dondang sayang song

[@alexandrang2037]

What is the title of the bgm?

[@Ragingwire1]

Language is the transmitter of culture without it the culture will slowly die You cannot translate a pantun It will lost its punch I applauded the effort by gunung sayang to revive the language and get the young once again interested in baba malay

[@alexking5339]

And what is the difference between the original Malay Dondang Sayang and the Peranakan version? It’s the same, merely a copy.

[@Chew81]

The main difference is the language. Baba Malay is not Malay. It is a Malay creole.

[@shahsharriy6362]

Baba nyonya cuma ada di negeri melaka,singapura dan penang sahaja...

[@linggat1210]

Not true. Indonesia has peranakan culture. Kebaya encim / pagi-sore are made in many cities in Java due to the culture

[@jintanmanis5000]

lingga T do they have their own musical? Unique culture? Maybe influence by javanese culture?

[@nese8727]

@@jintanmanis5000 we have bruh, your kebaya encim in the straits settlement are introduced by the peranakans in Java, literature and the use of Malay language in the Dutch indies is also used first by the Peranakans, the Benteng peranakans are one the groups that have similar culture and wedding with the baba nyonya in Melaka. You can watch in KZbin abt the "Who are the Peranakans" Based on Historian Didi Kwartanada presentation, which himself is a peranakan.

@@jintanmanis5000 almost all Chinese in west java, central java and east Java and areas excluding North Jakarta are all peranakan

[@nese8727]

@@jintanmanis5000 in the Timor islands, in Bali, in Manado and Minahasa, Makasar, Papua, Lombok, they are all peranakans. The 2-4 generation of tin miners that arrived in west Kalimantan/Borneo that later build the Lanfang republic are peranakans with a heavy blood mixture with the Dayaks. Even though they speak fluent Hakka now, we can't deny they have dayak blood in them.

[@jtalk0074]

Thank you for sharing this valuable clip. I really hope the younger generations of Singaporeans, especially the Peranakans, will carry on the art form and let it blossom.
