Hi.. I would like to share about Malay, Chinese and Indian culture in Malaysia.

Malaysia is a country with many cultures. The Malay, Chinese and Indian communities have their own traditional food, clothing and cultures that make our country special.

The Malay people enjoy eating food like lemang with chicken rendang, ketupat with kuah kacang, nasi lemak, nasi kerabu and satay. They always wear baju Melayu, baju kurung and baju kebaya, especially during Hari Raya Aidilfitri festival. Malays value manners, respect and family gatherings.

The Chinese community loves dishes such as dim sum, Hainanese chicken rice, kuih bakul, kuih sepit, moon cake and yee sang. Their traditional clothes include the cheongsam and sam foo, usually worn during Chinese New Year. Chinese culture focuses on family, hard work and colourful celebrations.

The Indian community is well known for food like roti canai, tosei, chapati, marukku, laddu, pani puri and mutton briyani rice. Indian ladies always wear sarees or lahenga while man wear kurtas or dhoti during Deepavali and other festivals. Indian culture includes music, dance and respect for elders.

In Malaysia, these three cultures live together in harmony and make our country beautiful and unique.

🌺 ABOUT MALAYSIA’S CULTURE 🌺

Malaysia is a beautiful and multicultural country that is well known for its rich traditions and colourful heritage. Our culture comes from many different communities such as the Malay, Chinese, Indian, Kadazan-Dusun, Iban, and other indigenous groups. Each group contributes its own customs, food, clothes, stories and celebrations, which makes Malaysia a unique and vibrant place.

One of the most special things about Malaysia is language. We use Bahasa Melayu as our national language, but Malaysians also speak many other languages such as Mandarin, Tamil, Iban, Kadazan, Hokkien, Cantonese and English. This mixture of languages shows how diverse and connected we are as a nation. Even though we speak differently, Malaysians communicate with respect and understand each other well.

Malaysians also celebrate many festivals like Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, Gawai and Kaamatan. These celebrations are filled with colourful decorations, happy gatherings and delicious foods. Traditional clothes such as baju kurung, cheongsam and sari highlight the beauty of our cultural identity.

Food is another big part of our culture. Dishes like nasi lemak, laksa, roti canai, dim sum and chicken rice show the amazing blend of flavours in Malaysia. Although we come from different backgrounds, Malaysians live peacefully in harmony. This unity, respect and diversity make Malaysia a proud, friendly and culturally rich country.

"Eid Al-Fitr"

One of the cultural festivals in Malaysia is the Eid Al-Fitri celebration. This celebration is celebrated to celebrate the victory of Muslims after a month of fasting in the month of Ramadan and to instill compassion for the poor and the helpless. It is also a day of blessing from Allah SWT as a reward for successfully controlling one's desires and educating the soul throughout the month of Ramadhan.

Every time Eid Al-Fitr arrives, the practice of visiting is a deeply rooted tradition and is eagerly awaited by Muslims and the multi-racial community in Malaysia. This practice is not just a custom but also an important platform to strengthen friendship and unity. Some of the common visiting practices are visiting family and relatives, attending open houses, enjoying foods, apologizing, and giving Eid Al-Fitr money.

Apart from that, Eid Al-Fitr Celebration is also famous for its traditional dishes that are only served during Eid Al-Fitr Celebration. The practice of eating traditional dishes is the highlight of Eid Al-Fitr celebrations in Malaysia. The dishes served are often rich in history and taste and symbolize family bonds and unity. Among the traditional Eid Al-Fitr foods are ketupat, lemang, rendang, kuih raya, and various other dishes.

Finally, Eid Al-Fitr also features Malaysians with one of the traditional Malaysian clothes, especially worn during Aidilfitri, which is the Baju Melayu for men and Baju Kurung for women.

Malaysia's culture is a vibrant and complex mosaic, fundamentally shaped by its history as a meeting point for diverse civilizations and colonial powers. The nation is characterized by its multicultural society, primarily composed of Malays, Chinese, and Indians, alongside indigenous groups, all coexisting and contributing to a unique national identity.

Multiculturalism and Ethnic Diversity: The population is a rich blend of different ethnicities. Malays are the largest group and are constitutionally defined as Muslim. The Chinese community, the second largest, largely practices Buddhism or Taoism, while the Indian community, mainly of Tamil descent, largely adheres to Hinduism. Indigenous groups like the Orang Asli in Peninsular Malaysia and the Dayaks and Kadazan-Dusuns in East Malaysia add further depth with their unique traditions.

Festivals and Traditions: A significant aspect of Malaysian life is the celebration of diverse festivals, which fosters cultural exchange and national unity. Major holidays include Hari Raya Aidilfitri (Eid-Fitr), Chinese New Year, Deepavali (Diwali), and Christmas. The "open house" custom during these festivities, where people of all backgrounds visit each other's homes to share food and goodwill, is a unique Malaysian tradition that embodies the spirit of tolerance and harmony.

Cuisine: Malaysian cuisine is a prime example of its cultural fusion. It blends Malay, Chinese, and Indian culinary traditions, resulting in a "food paradise" with a wide range of popular dishes like satay, rendang, yong tau foo, chapati, and spicy curries. The availability and shared enjoyment of these diverse foods are a testament to the country's cultural symbiosis.

Language and Religion: While Bahasa Malaysia (Malay) is the national language, many other languages and dialects are spoken. Islam is the official religion, but the constitution guarantees freedom of religion, allowing the peaceful coexistence of mosques, temples, and churches.

Arts, Music, and Architecture: The country's rich history, influenced by indigenous heritage, trade with Arab and Persian cultures, and British colonialism, is reflected in its art forms, traditional music and dances (like the Joget), and historical architecture found in UNESCO sites such as Malacca and Georgetown.

Social Norms: Malaysians are known for their warm hospitality, politeness, and modesty. Respect for elders, modest dressing at religious sites, and removing shoes before entering a home are common cultural etiquettes.

In essence, Malaysian culture is a vibrant, evolving tapestry where distinct ethnic identities are maintained while contributing to a shared national experience, encapsulated by the slogan "Malaysia Truly Asia".

Minangkabau Culture in Malaysia🇲🇾

Minangkabau culture in Malaysia can mostly be seen in the state of Negeri Sembilan. It came from Minangkabau people in West Sumatra who migrated to Malaysia long ago. Their culture mixed with Malay traditions and became something special, especially through a system called Adat Perpatih. This system is interesting because family inheritance goes through the mother’s side. Women receive the ancestral land, but men still help as leaders in the community.

Negeri Sembilan also has a unique leadership system. The people are divided into twelve clans, and each clan has its own leader. These leaders help choose the Yang di-Pertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan, which shows how important Minangkabau traditions are in the state.

We can also see Minangkabau influence in traditional houses with roofs shaped like buffalo horns. The food in Negeri Sembilan, such as masak lemak cili api and daging salai, is also very spicy and delicious. Some dances and wedding customs are still practised today.

In conclusion, Minangkabau culture is an important part of Malaysia’s heritage. It makes Negeri Sembilan unique and helps us appreciate the diversity of cultures in our country.

My Future Goal :

I want to be good to my parents and

Malaysia is a country of peace, harmony, and prosperity. Although we come from different races and backgrounds, we walk hand in hand, guided by the respect and unity that binds us together as one nation 💕.

My name is Nur Damia' binti Muhammad Zulfahmi, a proud student of Sekolah Kebangsaan Bandar Tasik Selatan, from class 6 UM. At the age of 12, I am happy to share with you who are currently in South Korea about our culture in Malaysia 🥰.

Malaysia is made up of many races, religions, foods, dances, and traditional games. Among our communities are the Malays, Chinese, Indians, Sikhs, and the unique Baba Nyonya. Far across the South China Sea, the island of Borneo. The proud home of Sabah and Sarawak. Excited to welcome you with its own cultural gems, including the Iban, Bidayuh, Melanau, and Kadazan-Dusun. Each race has its own unique charm.

Our religious diversity is just as vibrant. Islam, the official religion of Malaysia. Followed by Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism, Confucianism, Taoism, and others. These diverse beliefs enrich our festivals, traditions, and way of life, making Malaysia a country where celebrations never end.

Traditional dances in Malaysia are like stories brought to life through graceful movements and rhythms 💃. Whether it’s the mystical grace of Mak Yong, the lively footwork of Zapin, the energetic rhythm of Lion Dance, the classical beauty of Bharatanatyam, the soaring movements of Sumazau, or the spiritual charm of Sewang, each performance captivates the hearts of a different community. Many of these dances can be enjoyed on modern platforms like YouTube, allowing our heritage to be known worldwide.

Traditional Malaysian games also reflect the creativity and spirit of its people. Veranda games include the strategic and ingenious Congkak, as well as Paramapadham, a traditional board game originating from India. Backyard games like Sepak Raga, Chapteh, and Kabaddi fill the open spaces with laughter and friendly competition. Meanwhile, open games such as Wau, Tibau, Sepak Manggis, and Gasing showcase the arts and skills passed down from generation to generation.

And so, Malaysia stands as a gentle reminder that harmony is possible when we embrace every color of ourselves. Together, we carry the colorful colors of Malaysian culture, not only in our traditions, but also in our hearts. United forever as one

Hi! My name is Aniq Amsyar, but you can call me Aniq. I live in Kuala Lumpur, a busy and modern city that is famous for the Petronas Twin Towers, which used to be the tallest twin towers in the world.

Let me tell you a little about my country, Malaysia. Malaysia is a unique and colourful nation with many different races and religions living together in harmony. The main ethnic groups here are Malays, Chinese, Indians, and many other indigenous communities.

One of the best things about Malaysia is our festive seasons. Every major celebration becomes a national holiday, and we celebrate together, such as Hari Raya, Chinese New Year, Deepavali, Christmas, Gawai and more. This is what makes our multicultural identity so special.

I am Malay, and during our celebrations, men usually wear Baju Melayu while women wear Baju Kurung. One of our traditional festive foods is lemang (glutinous rice cooked in a bamboo tube over a fire). Preparing lemang is my favourite task!

Malaysia is also very diverse when it comes to food. Besides Malay dishes, we enjoy Chinese dim sum, Indian muruku, and even Sarawakian treats like Kek Lapis. As for drinks, the most popular one here is Teh Tarik. The higher you “pull” the tea, the richer the foam, and the better it tastes!. For something cold and refreshing, we love Sirap Rose, a sweet drink with a floral aroma.

In my free time, I enjoy playing online games and football. I also like traditional games that I play with my cousins and friends such as sepak takraw, tuju selipar, and wau (a large traditional kite). Besides that, I am active in silat (a traditional Malay martial art).

I love making new friends. I hope I can learn about your culture too, and I look forward to getting to know you better. Let me know if you’d like to hear more about Malaysia’s traditions or festivals

I’d be happy to share!

Sincerely,

ANIQ

INDIAN TRADITION

Indian Culture in Malaysia

Indian culture in Malaysia is one of the country’s most vibrant and influential cultural heritages, enriched by traditions brought mainly from South India, particularly Tamil Nadu, alongside communities from Punjab, Kerala and other regions. Indian Malaysians uphold strong family values, religious practices, and community spirit, which can be seen in their daily customs, celebrations, and traditional attire such as saree, kurta, dhoti and Punjabi suits.

Food

Indian cuisine in Malaysia is well known for its rich flavours, spices and diversity. Popular dishes include roti canai, tosai, idli, chapati, nasi briyani, tandoori chicken, and a wide range of vegetarian curries. Banana leaf meals, served with rice, vegetables, curries and pickles, reflect the traditional South Indian way of eating. Indian sweets such as laddu, jalebi, muruKku, and payasam are also enjoyed during festivals and celebrations.

Festivals

Indians in Malaysia celebrate many colourful festivals.

Deepavali, the Festival of Lights, symbolises the victory of good over evil and is celebrated with oil lamps, temple prayers and family gatherings.

Thaipusam is a significant Hindu festival marked with kavadi processions and offerings of devotion.

Ponggal, the harvest festival, involves cooking sweet rice as a sign of gratitude.

Sikh celebrations such as Vaisakhi are also widely observed.
These festivals highlight unity, spirituality and cultural pride.

Cultural Norms

Respect for elders, strong family bonds, and religious devotion are central to Indian cultural norms in Malaysia. Many Indian families practise traditional customs such as blessing ceremonies, temple visits, and giving kolam (colourful floor designs) during auspicious occasions. The Indian community also places importance on classical arts—Bharatanatyam dance, Carnatic music, and traditional musical instruments such as tabla and mridangam.
