I was interested to learn more in regards to the Malays. I create myself this question always. Where do I come from? or what's my calling in life. Only if you know your past and take a closer look at the activities of the past call history we may find the answers
Its interesting after-hours of research and reading I may add. So there could be elements to this entries. Ill just start with the basic of the Malays, their foundation
Malays are sea-faring people
For the clueless, I really hope you are able to identify Malays and Melayus. While Melayu is in Malay language Malays is in English language. This interesting open in a new browser wiki has uncountable astonishing warnings for the reason for this activity. Were 99-year completely Islam with Malaysia with the bulk of Malays around with 12 millions in population. Singapore has about 600,000 Malays in total. To explore additional info, please gaze at: singapore promo package.
In fact our Malay roots are hotly contested and questioned these days as authorities think theres no such race as Malays but were a new race that includes various race such as Thai, Orang Asli, Sabah and Sarawak indigenous people, Indian Muslims, Bugis, Bawean, Javanese, Thai and Achehnese.
Our origins can be traced back to Yunnan, China. The Jakun are seafaring people. These beach tribes people probably extended to coastal Borneo (Indonesia, Brunei) and Malaysia, then into Sumatra (Indonesia) and then the Malay Penisula (Malaysia, Singapore)
The Singapore, Indons and Malaysians you see in these days are in-fact the descendants of those Jakun combined with modern Indian, Thai, Arab and Chinese blood. How cool is the fact that. That is as a result of Jakun nature of life trading and sea-faring method of life through-out from China to Malay Peninsula.
So essentially weve a migratory path from south to north, although our origins are traced right back to Yunnan, China
Scary reality
Well it does not matter weren't a race of abundant with history such as the Arabs or English, but were still a race. A new modern battle wanting to better oneself. Its an interesting trip so far for me finding out about my race, the Malays.. This lovely small blue arrow site has varied original lessons for why to mull over this concept.
