Malays never wear kebaya, while Baba Nyonya (Chinese) in Singapore and Malaysia wear kebaya, I am sure their ancestors were immigrants from Java. Proof that Chinese and Malays never mixed, even for a second, they adopted the clothes of the Dutch colonialists' acculturation with the native Javanese. The position of Chinese descendants now remains as colonizers of the native Malay land, there is no cultural acculturation and cooperation with the native Malays. Singapore is the land of the Malays, not the land of India and China,What about the land of Baba Nyonya? They are descendants of Indonesian Chinese immigrants, not native Singaporeans and Malaysians.

Interesting that many of those commenting are non Peranakans and they are telling us the criteria that distinguishes whether someone is a Peranakan. I bet they don’t even know about the Genome study on the DNA of those who claim to be Peranakan.

You do not have to fear that cultures are fading away. Culture to Asians is like the skin on your palm of your hands. Best thing about Asian culture its found in every Asian race, be it Malay, Chinese or Indian. Its interwoven. Whether you practised it or not its not a question. It will come out when needed. I am glad I cone from a region of vast cultures.

@@jasontan27 peranakan are basically mixed blood., and its pretty clear the genetically dominant one will take place physically... be it malay, chinese or others. There is no such thing as peranakan race. Check out the usa... its a melting polt... if one wishes to verify, most likely all of them would have a complex mixed blood. In indonesia, most of the mixed blood dont called themselves peranakan. If some of they do... they got the terminology wrong. And this peranakan thing here, is not well documented. So the subject is pretty much hazy over here. A few of my many mixed blood friends, some have physically more dark coloured with the local featured, yet they tell me, hey... my background is chinese, my friend... and i said no problem,... you are still my friend... I couldnt be bothered.... because there are many out there which is why, i do not really care, after all they come into this world through no fault of theirs. Note: also in china mainland, there are many sub ethnics grouping.... but most of us are really proud of our origins. As for our family we are still a mixed blood of the sub group of the Han chinese, in between the teochew and hakka. But if anyone ask me, i will tell them i am a teochew.... can still speak this dialect... and am still self educating myself in hanzi, the chinese characters.

It should be noted that the word Peranakan isnt synonymous with Peranakan Chinese. It's an adjective for any nativised immigrant community in the Malay Archipelago, be they Arab, Indian, Chinese or Portuguese. However because the Straits Chinese are the most prominent the word usually refers to them by default.

Everything you want to claim..Your people came to our country looking for job & doesn't want go back to your country..Big country but cannot provide your job for your citizen.People like you only know how to claim..By the way Kebaya is Malay language not Javanese language..Our Malaysia country always help your people & country when something happen like tsunamy & other bad things happen..But you people always want to claim everything ,said bad thing about our country & always critics us...

Can’t judge by skin colour since biracial descendants features and skin can varies. Especially, after so many generations of intermarriage with later Chinese immigrants it is impossible to base on skin colour or citizenship. Chinese Peranakan and pure Chinese born in straits of Malacca all are considered citizens of Malaysia or Singapore.Better if you ask elders at home or observe pass down recipes, clothes and stories from elders. We can only trace our roots when we spend time with our elders at home. I am more Paranakan than my cousins not due to parentage but my time and interest learning from my Nonya/Bibik Ah Mah, listening stories of her childhood and home recipes as a child while helping her to tembuk spices and meal preparation in kitchen. My siblings and cousins not interested at all so end up identifying more with Pure Chinese. Most only identify with food and kebayas worn on important events like weddings.

In Singapore,traces are found around the Bedok Katong area where I met a few, very old Peranakan people, however, Malacca (Melaka) is, I feel, a stronghold yet, plus Penang.

Asraf Aris , not really. Many Singaporeans Peranakan were affected by our education system of learning English and Mandarin for Chinese (Anyone who has a Chinese father is considered Chinese) Even Chinese dialects are lost among younger generations because dialects are discouraged. Many socials and economic factors were involved with the changes sadly. Also Singaporean Chinese Peranakan food differ from Penang though we do find more similarity from Malacca. Within Chinese Peranakan we have Hakka, Teochew, Hokkien even Cantonese Peranakan which produced a variety of Peranakan style Malay language mixed with individual dialect group. Most of us dunno Bahasa Melayu and it is uncommon in Singapore to speak Bahasa Melayu. Love my Singaporean Peranakan heritage. I am thankful that there is an increasing interest within our community to educate our younger generations to revive our heritage.

As for Peranakan food, I did note a vast difference,between Singapore and Melaka particularly, I believe Melaka has what was considered REAL Peranakan whilst Singapore, Penang had a different method of cooking and I did note the difference. I bought Cook Books in Singapore written by Peranakan Cooks also Chinese, my Chinese one is by Mrs Leong Lee Siew,whose recipes are easier to produce since ALL the items are available in Australia whereas Peranakan style and spices are different. I feel sad that Peranakan has not been accepted in Singapore, in my early days there it was quite common, especially in Tiong Bahru, Lim Liak Street particularly had quite a lot of Genuine Peranakan folks who I knew via my Chinese (Hakka Wife). Her school buddies were almost all Peranakan. that was in the fifties. LOL! The loss of the beautiful sounding Languages in exchange for English and Mandarin was unfair I felt. Mandarin is a fine language but choice of language should be up to the individual,not government. P.S> I know much history of Singapore, (my favorite subject.)

Peranakans managed to preserve our Chinese culture and traditions despite being a minority in a far away land, that is exactly what distinguishes Peranakans, otherwise we would just be Malays with Chinese ancestry. Peranakans would import bribes or husbands from China or marry other Peranakans to keep our bloodline Chinese, or the Chineseness in Peranakans would have been so diluted over hundreds of years. We were a very small minority before the British imported Chinese labourers in the 19th century.
