Malay
Culture
  
Malays live chiefly in peninsular Malaysia, where they are
more than half of the population. Malays also live in East Malaysia
(Sabah and Sarawak), on the coasts of Sumatra and other islands
of Indonesia, extending up to the Sulu Sea of the
southern Philippines. The name "Malay" is sometimes used for all
of these people and refers to a cultural area called Malaysia, which ranges
from southern Thailand to the Sulu Sea. This cultural sense of
Malaysia never had any political unity, and "Malaysia" now refers to
peninsular Malaysia (West Malaysia) and Sabah and Sarawak (East Malaysia).
Malay (Bahasa Melayu) belongs to the Malayo-Polynesian Family of languages,
which extend from mainland Southeast Asia to Easter Island in the
Pacific. Malay is similar to modern Indonesian to about the degree that British
and American English are similar, except that Indonesian shows the effects
(both in structure and vocabulary) of long contact with Dutch, while Malay
exhibits English influences. Malay is written in a Latin alphabet (Rumi) and a
derived Indian script (Jawi).
Chinese
Culture
  
China is an extremely large country, and the customs and
traditions of its people vary by geography and ethnicity.
More than 1 billion people live in China, according to
the Asia Society, representing 56 ethnic minority groups. The largest
group is the Han Chinese, with about 900 million people. Other groups include
the Tibetans, the Mongols, the Manchus, the Naxi, and the Hezhen, which is
smallest group, with fewer than 2,000 people.
"Significantly, individuals within communities create their
own culture," said Cristina De Rossi, an anthropologist at Barnet and
Southgate College in London. Culture includes religion, food, style, language,
marriage, music, morals and many other things that make up how a group acts and
interacts. Here is a brief overview of some elements of the Chinese culture.
Indian Culture
  
India’s culture is among the world's oldest; civilization in
India began about 4,500 years ago. Many sources describe it as "Sa
Prathama Sanskrati Vishvavara" — the first and the supreme culture in the
world, according to the All World Gayatri Pariwar (AWGP)
organization.
Western societies did not always see the culture of India very
favorably, according to Christina De Rossi, an anthropologist at Barnet and
Southgate College in London. Early anthropologists once considered culture as
an evolutionary process, and ”every aspect of human development was seen as
driven by evolution,” she told Live Science. “In this view, societies outside
of Europe or North America, or societies that did not follow the European or
Western way of life, were considered primitive and culturally inferior.
Essentially this included all the colonized countries and people, such as
African countries, India, and the Far East.
However, Indians made significant advances in architecture (Taj
Mahal), mathematics (the invention of zero) and medicine (Ayurveda). Today,
India is a very diverse country, with more than 1.2 billion people, according
to the CIA World Factbook, making it the second most populous nation after
China. Different regions have their own distinct cultures. Language, religion,
food and the arts are just some of the various aspects of Indian culture. Here
is a brief overview of the culture of India.

Borneo Culture
Sabah and Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo, is a melting pot of peoples
who have inhabited the island for thousands of years and intermarried with
those who arrived in later waves of migration. With a varied ethnic composition
comes a great diversity of cultures and religions. Borneo is still largely
unpopulated, with the coastal regions being the most developed.
The most populous native ethnic group in Sarawak is the Iban, in
Sabah the Kadazandusun, in Labuan the Kedayan and the Brunei Malay. There are
numerous other smaller groups each with their own unique traditional way of
life, customs and traditions. In addition, centuries-old trade ties with China
and the colonial importation of labour for plantations and mining, account for
the large Chinese population in many coastal towns in Malaysian Borneo.
More than 100 languages and dialects are spoken in Borneo, but
the Malay language, the official language of the country, is the one uniting
factor that allows everyone to cross the linguistic barrier. English is also
widely spoken in urban centres.
Freedom of religion is guaranteed in Malaysian Borneo, and here
you will find mosques, churches and temples for all religions. Many indigenous
people in Borneo have converted to Islam and Christianity, although a minority
still follow their traditional animistic beliefs. Unlike Peninsula Malaysia,
the most predominant religion in Malaysian Borneo, is Christianity.
Discover Borneo holidays can lead you to experience more about
Sabah and Sarawak's fascinating cultures, foods and festivals. We can provide a
traditional welcome with cultural dances and performances at hotels, airports,
other venues, and for all occasions (such as weddings) for a truly
unforgettable experience.
