According to the legend, the Chinese emperor sent a princess, Han Ri Po, to Melaka's sultan to pay his respect. The royal family and servants who took the princess settled in Bukit Csina originally and eventually grew into a Chinese born in a strait known as Peranakan. Due to the economic difficulties of mainland China, immigrants from China gathered in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore. Some of them accept local customs while preserving some ancestral culture, others are partially integrated into Malay culture, especially with respect to food, clothing and languages, while preserving the Chinese tradition, in particular ing. Foreign culture

This group of immigrants includes businessmen, businessmen and people who escape the economic difficulties of mainland China. They accepted the custom and culture of Malaysia. Most Chinese are married to local Malaysians. However, some Peranakani people do not have the origins of Malays. They belong to the Chinese, but they use the combination of Chinese and Malay culture. Malay language and culture are integrated in their daily lives, but their ethnic and religious origins still exist.

To the best of my knowledge, Nyonha (or Nonya) is a term used to respect respected women of Pranakan. Peranakan was born as a descendant of Chinese and Murray, roughly called Babanyonha (Baba is Peranakan). At that time, Peranakan cuisine was found throughout the Malay Peninsula, a combination of Chinese and Malay spices and cooking techniques. One of the most common elements of Peranakan cuisine is my favorite taste, pandan. Nyonakaya is made from white sugar that reduces the thickness of the texture, and leaves of ground orchids that increases its concentration and green leek. I tend to like this deformation of Kaya as it is less sweet than Kaya in Hainan.

If Malaysia is known for its cultural diversity, it is food that proves this claim. Malaysians know how to enjoy the feast while practicing Muhiba, from Nyoña cuisine (a combination of Chinese and Malay flavors to Peranakan culture) to Mamak food (a combination of Indian and Malay dishes). Malaysia is usually safe, friendly and sincere. In other words, food suppliers will not charge you as a tourist, so if you throw away an RM 50 (12 dollar) banknote, you usually regain it. In other words, Malaysians will immediately tell you what they think, especially if they think you are a fool. Are you brave enough to face rain in Malaysia and ultimately get a cold? "Next time, Pakaio Takura." (Next time, use your brain)
