Unlike Indonesians, we Malaysians are very proud of sharing our culture and we are not fond or obsessed in claiming things (trust me, several indonesians harrased me in past youtube comment when i mentioned kangkong is very common staples in SEA, because they claimed Kangkong originates from Indonesia 🤦🏼♀️🤣). Im glad that Phillipnes, Thailand and other countries are more laid back and open minded. A good mindset opens for healthy sharing of Culture and foods, in so many ways by many kind of people. Its lovely to see this kind of documentary.
Agreed. As Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Timor Leste and Philippines are all located in the Malay Archipelago, we are bound to have similar traditions, cuisines and way of life. We proudly sharing several customs, cultures, arts, cuisines that makes us dynamic.
And We Malaysians are not jealous of sharing. Its not that Philipine cuisine comes from us , or ours come from Philipines. We ve been exchanging our material and cultural products for centuries and today we are still doing the same. I wull one day journey to Marawi to savour the food presented. Thank you.
Hello to my Malay brothers and sisters in the Philippines.....this is a heartwarming video and i can see there's so many similarities between Malaysia and the Philippines be it in food, language, appearance etc...i truly enjoy the video and the host is quite relaxed...love and greetings from Malaysia...
kita ni asal bersaudara di Nusantara cuma dipisahkan geografi dan penjajahan,kalau ada masa dan kesempatan lebih baik pergi ke negara jiran ASEAN lain macam FIlipina Indonesia Brunai dan lain2 dari ke negara barat
Contents like these makes you think that food isn't just something you'd crave anymore. It's a wide and complex puzzle with multiple pieces now. From heritage, culture, tradition, history, preservation, innovation. Absolute finest!
Nyonya is not Chinese Muslim but Straits born Chinese - who are descendants of Chinese settlers from over 500 years ago and intermarried with local Malays and adapted some of the Malay culture and our colonisers culture. Their culture and food is distinctly different from the new wave of Malaysian Chinese descendants whose ancestors migrated just in the past century, and also different from the Malay
Well, as a Malaysian I've always feel closer to all my fellow Sea especially around Indonesia, Thailand and Philippines, we do actually have much in common.
This video showcases unique cuisines not only in our beloved Philippines 🇵🇭but also across the border Malaysia 🇲🇾the most unique thing here is that 2 brother nations share common type of cuisine through the same ingredients but used in different way! One of the best content ever 👏🏻 Congratulations 👏🏻 BRAVO 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Tysm for the complete and correct English CC; it's a big help for the Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, and non-Filipino language speakers. I love that we keep exploring different cultures through foods, and that we bridge each other through the hospitality of sharing food, knowledge, and spaces.
I’m from Mindanao, but I don’t know much about the cuisine and culture of our Maranao brothers and sisters. I am truly amazed at how they have preserved their recipes and cooking styles. Their food is unique, yet it still reflects our Filipino heritage. I can say that in Mindanao, we are diverse, but we remain united. Thank you so much to Featr for highlighting our beautiful region. I look forward to seeing more videos like this! 🙏🧡
I'?m not so familiar of Filipino cuisine.Ad the Philipĺines consists of many Islanda so the cuisine is diverse. But I go the Filipino REstoran which open my eyes and taste buds.I loved Helo Helo and their smoked or grilled Fish
@@meong9078 yeahh and the Philippines is claiming rendang ... The ethnic own rendang not the country... The ethnicity brought and introduce rendang through out the archipelago... Long before the existence of Indonesia.. Malaysia... Brunei... Singapore and Phillipines. #iq78
The word 'maratabad' is identical with Malay word for 'martabat' which reflect the same meaning. Many cuisines are similar to our local Malaysian food likes beef rendang, all those coconut based dishes remind me of my own daily food that I prepare..washing hands before eating in that floor sitting (in Malay we called that 'bersila') was way back practised by my grandparents but not not much anymore now due to modern lifestyle of dining on the table and chairs..oooo how close we are..very similar
Adab2 Islam la yang kita amalkan tu yedak? martabat tu kata pinjaman dari bahasa Arab maksudnya tingkatan. Kita ni semua berkongsi budaya, bahasa sebab dulu kita dengan filipina sama-sama negara Islam.❤
thank you for highlighting the culture and history of the Maranao Food, let's all make all our traditional and indigenous food and showcase it as part of Filipino Gastronomy. kudos to your team for doing this!
Maranao cuisine is underrated! We often crave for thai, malay, or Vietnamese food when we have our own and is way better. The way food was prepped at almost the last part ang syala ha! We should be more welcoming to our brothers and sisters from Mindanao, try to embrace the cuisine the culture and that makes us more Filipino. Andami nating boundaries, haiya! Nagutom ako sa episode n to. Looking at the rendang ang piaparan!
@@lisa-sr4hz excuse me! We're discussing similarities, but it doesn't mean those Cuisines are Malaysian, all those are maranao authentic dishes not Malaysian. 😅
Maratabat i believe in malay is martabat also kandulang is dulang, kanduli is kenduri. I love that we still connected with the same words even after both countries colonies with different coloniser.
I really admire this shot: @41:41. Coincidentally, they wore colors that reps our Philippine flag .. under the bright sun! I love how they reflect their discoveries about Maranaoan cuisine and culture and ofc, to FEATR, na laging platform to introduce history and homage to all of these things na di alam ng karamihan!
FEATR never fails to flatter my Mindanaosn heart especially this episode for our Mranao brothers and sisters. Thank you so much for featuring Marawi and Maranao people again. And yes, MARANAO FOOD IS FILIPINO FOOD! ❤️
I spent my first seven years in Mindanao, then moved to another island in the Visayas before eventually migrating abroad. This video made me want to return and savor all the culinary delights I’ve missed. Thank you, Featr, for featuring this. Your research and videos are powerful vessels for the global awakening of Filipino gastronomy!
I’m fully aware as Filipinos being from the Malay race. But it becomes more evident in the cuisine. Makes me more proud not just to be Filipino, but proud of all of Southeast Asia! Even if it’s a mostly Christian country, the Muslim influence shines bright in the food we eat.
Austronesian po hindi Malay we might received some influenced from them but our ancestors came from Taiwan, look how culturally and physically close Taiwan aborigines and Igorot tribes since sila yung hindi nasakop. Half of Malay/Indo came from mainland southeast asian which is Austroasiatic, the other half came from Philippines.
@@AsianSP You both can be right. Please know also that Malaysia≠Malay thus not all Malaysians are Malay. Think of the demographics of nearby areas to be closely related thus we in East Malaysia actually have much more in common culturally with Brunei, Kalimantan and Southern PH than West Malaysia. We from the East Malaysia can trace a lot of similarities to Philippines and studies also theorises that some aboriginals of East Malaysia may trace our origin from Taiwan as well. There is of course the high probability of Malay diaspora during the height of the Major Sultanate Era strengthening the links of old Malaya-Indonesia-Brunei-Philippines 😁
@@AsianSP my English not ok southeast Asia malaysia have many race come from Arab,Taiwan,India, chienese DNA this is how human migration happen civilization history we not know 50% past 7000,6000years what happening. I'm from Kelantan my family face have many colour some face bright,dark, eyes have many type😅😂 if test DNA Aceh region they have many Arab DNA. How to know See sea close to what country so they have relation for thousand years has been forget.
I never said ONE RACE. I understand the Austronesian diaspora. Human migration and settlement will change our language and culture. That’s why all the islander languages in the Pacific stem from Austronesian. We’re not the same, but similar.
I always wondered why the connections to Malaysia and Indonesia are not stronger.. They have so much in common in treating people, ingredients, words they use and so on..
@@jeksixten5751 yes Malaysian adopted more Indian influence while Indonesian especially eastern part and Javanese part adopted more Indian cultural aspect and chinese food culture. Many famous food in Indonesia such as Mee ayam, Bakso and Lumpia are Chinese. While the Malays predominantly live in Sumatra, Malaysia and Borneo adopted more Indian food culture with middle eastern food culture also. Especially in North of Malaysia and North of Sumatra you will see a lot more Malay cuisine used a lot more Indian spices in their Gulai. Filipino is unique becasue they are too far from Indian influence and they also adopted many Chinese aspect so many of their cuisine are more similar to authentic early period Malay. Such as the White palapa, Malay used to have white palapa or we call it Serunding Kelapa also because we also didnt used red chilies until the Portuguese introduce red chilies to Malacca 600 years ago. Before the Portuguese came all our spicy food are made with green peppers adn black peppers. No chillies involve. The Maranao used of bawang dayak or sakurab is also how Malay used to cook theri food with that but after load of imported red inions from india came they switch from using sakurab to red onions.
@@wewenang5167North and North eastern Malaysia like the state of Kedah, Perlis, and Kelantan they also have a strong Thai and Cambodia influences in their food because of the land border
Because Filipino are full Austronesian genetically with east asian ancestry while Indo/Malay are Half Austroasiatic and Austronesian and received more Indian influenced. If you study their languages, it's totally different from Philippine languages when it comes to grammar but majority of them speak Austronesian but their grammar are similar to mainland southeast asia. For example Javanese are Austroasiatic but they speak Austronesian.

FEATR, you've found a star host who i think could carry these types of videos! I really do appreciate these features and i also learn a lot. I haven't seen this guy before and I don't even know his name yet (I think one guy called him Shareef but I may have misheard) but he speaks with real love and honesty and humility about what he's presenting. Pls keep it up and more features with him.
An informative documentary that both highlights and depicts the shared similarities in cultures, cuisines, and traditions of Southeast Asia, shaped by migration and the blending of populations. This common heritage dates back centuries, when borders, boundaries, and barriers were invisible.
Thank you FEATR for making this, it's an eye opening documentary, informative and educational. These dishes should also be added in the list of Filipino food, when introducing it to the global community.
Regimo was a hispanized reading of Abdur-Rahim. We may be not Malay /Melayu, but as Austronesians we belong to the larger Malay-world. Before Islam, we were also heavily Indianized via Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. Its something we dont talk about often, but underpins a lot of our cultural outlook and icons /clothing/food (most evident in Bangsamoro).
Not all ethnicities in the archipelago were plugged into this larger Malay world. Key areas such as Manila, Sulu, Mindanao and Palawan sure and then the Malay cultural influence vries relative to distance from major port cities. Until we reach the mountain areas and their culture is more akin to Taiwan or the interior areas of Borneo.
Some of the stores you showed in the video look exactly like the stores in Malaysia, like exactly the same products. The people and even some of the words are exactly them same. We basically are the same people separated by ocean and nation.
thanks for featuring this! I was not aware of the Muslim community in Manila, now I'm more keen to explore the city given the halal choices especially authentic local cuisines!
Its kind of insane and not intentional at all, but Nanay Sheba is mixing white coconut meat and fish with yellow turmeric and red chilis inside a blue bowl... colors of the Philippine flag. We're a nation that's so diverse, but connections can be made anywhere if you're open to find them.
Treating guests with food is not a Malaysian culture, it's a malay culture / norms... More than half of the Philippines are considered as a malay whether they are muslim or christian n the rest are maybe a pacific Islander, mix breed & european / eurosian & immigrant.
I appreciate your approach, especially up to the title. Our cultures share a rich history of ancestral travels and cultural exchanges. It is frustrating when Indonesians overlook this fact and always feel the need to assert superiority. Thank you.
I have enjoyed delicious meals in Quaipo several times. I have eaten at Wakilah Eatery. There are many similarities between the food there and in Malaysia. The most interesting one is rendang. One fascinating thing from this video is that many words have almost the same pronunciation as in Malaysia. Next week, I will be going to Manila again, and Quaipo will definitely be one of my must-visit destinations.
18:23 Correct ko lang si kuya. Carp is not native to Lanao. Introduced sya, along with tilapia. Hindi alam ng marami pero Lanao Lake underwent what is truly an ecological disaster dahil sa introduction ng isda. Lanao used to be home to several species of completely endemic fish, like the manalak and baolan. Almost all, if not all of them, are now sadly extinct.
Sayang it's the same in Indonesia, Lake Toba in Sumatra is filled with carp and talapia, and I am not sure if locals know local fish. Arowan or in Malay - haruan is a lake fish another is toman. Catfish is also famous in Malaysia, fish like patin and baung is cooked in coconut, chilli and fermented durian.
@@shahesfelazi8549 Arowan is Haloan or Haruan in Bisaya, Dalag in Tagalog. It's _probably_ native, or at least introduced before modern times. Walking catfish is Pantat in Bisaya, Hito in Tagalog. It's native. Sadly, we probably lost most of the native fish before they were documented by science. Not just in Lanao but in most other local freshwater streams and lakes, which are now uniformly full of introduced fish like tilapia, carp, gourami, guppies, mosquitofish, and even aquarium fish like swordtails and plecos. I only know a few remaining common local freshwater fish like pait (small barb species), puyo (climbing perch), and some gobies.
@@AngryKittens gourami is not native to the Philippines? Gourami which we have several types in Malaysia, the Giant Gourami or called kaloi is native here and the Sabah Kaloi - a beautiful fish is native to Sabah. We also have the smaller rice gourami - sepat. Puyo is puyu here - climbing perch. The walking catfish is probably keli here in Malaysia but we have also the non-native African keli.
@ Nope. No gouramis are native to the Philippines (or eastern Indonesia). AFAIK they're only native to mainland Southeast Asia and the western greater Sunda islands (Borneo, Sumatra, Java) which were once connected to the mainland, 12,000 or so years ago (except Sulawesi, which like the Philippines was never connected to the mainland). They don't even have native names in the Philippines. They're still just called "gurami" in local languages.
Kuning means yellow in indonesian/malay, it actually describes the color of turmeric that used in the yellow rice. Actually Indonesia/Malaysia cuisines are almost similar. So many Malay cuisines in this video can be found in Indonesia too.
Both Malay and Maranao kuning are descended from the Proto-Malayo-Polynesian language. Those are not loan words from Dutch. What a ridiculous thing to say.
@@paoloandreo6137 what's awesome about FEATR is that they give opportunities for other talented people to present Filipino culture to the world. Erwan is definitely a keeper 👌
i agree...many in malaysia made that simplistic assumption (just because association with muslim-influenced culture in the southern parts). I prefer to associate with the whole RP isles north to south, based on Rizal's exclamation of Malay Race (despite many different interpretations to this).
Filipinos here will relate for what i write here , Indonesian local here , I want to give a confession that the cuisine of my country isn't easy to be marketed to the global culinary scene due to the immense diversity , influenced by the geographical vastness of the country as well (( being my country as double time larger )) I find that immense diversity of the cuisine is such a blesssing and the curse factor , thats why flavour standardisation is challenging to be done for Indonesian cuisine , another challenge is when the most under-represented food from the most under- respresented region doesn't given a spotlight , social jealousy to the region or a group with the most spotlight definitely inevitable Guarding the flavour authenticity is hard because there are certain a very specific ingredients that only can be grown in Indonesia Expose to the international market also challenging due to minimum support of the goverment and also diaspora of Indonesian's abroad are minimal due to Indonesian are much feel comfortable in the giant Indonesian bubble , shapens a crab mentality of the people
It's the same with Philippine cuisine. We have tropical islands cuisine, highlander cuisines, lowlander cuisines with different influences from neighboring countries and Filipinos will only introduced common dish from each region even it's not the best in our country, so we end up not introducing what we eat daily and what we eat traditionally. The only thing we can market our food are through OFW.
Had the Spanish not colonized the Philippines, Filipinos would've become Islamic and became further one with other Malayic nations. Other colonial powers wouldn't have influenced much on religion. Except it already happened. Ask any Filipino nowadays and they would say they'd rather not be an Islamic country (Malaysia has Islam as state religion) or a Muslim-majority country (like Indonesia with only 6 recognized religions).
@@Dragoncam13 austrenesian for some idiot who wants to divide malay people. this term is just invented by western country who claim themselve scholar but idiot in reality.
@ Malay are still the native to Singapore. Singapore is still Malay belong to the Malay world no matter who’s the majority ethnic group. As long the Malay people are still around in Singapore, the national languages still Malay & our roots is still Malay, Singapore will always be Malay. Don’t discredit the Singaporean Malay. We’re tired of others telling we’re not Malay enough or being push aside for being Malay in a Chinese majority country.
Ooh. Im curious about tausug food. Im ilonggo/kiniraya - western bisaya.. but withpaternal grand aunts who are tausug and sama, and a bro in law who is yakan- tausug. And their cooking is not spiy. Although they like to have spicy condiments. Tiyula or panay's- tinola isnt chili hot and spicy.. Spicy vinegar or sinamak is what we have. Sulu is like Panay's muslim equivalent. So curious about what their food is like. 😅
Nyonya is not a totally chinese muslim. Baba & Nyonya is a chinese who's married with the locals long time ago and they assimilated malays traditions into chinese traditions like speaking in malay, wearing kebaya & mix malay with chinese cuisine & many more. But nowadays, only a small number of young generations still following baba & nyonya unique traditions.

Pls keep it up and more features with him.
The comment section is so peaceful ❤
An informative documentary that both highlights and depicts the shared similarities in cultures, cuisines, and traditions of Southeast Asia, shaped by migration and the blending of populations. This common heritage dates back centuries, when borders, boundaries, and barriers were invisible.
Thank you FEATR for making this, it's an eye opening documentary, informative and educational. These dishes should also be added in the list of Filipino food, when introducing it to the global community.
Galing ng narration, presentation ng vid na to pang international! Parang pang national geographic eme! Galing!
I am so intrigued.. I’m sure with all the spices these Moslem dishes are delicious.
You should try them!
Regimo was a hispanized reading of Abdur-Rahim. We may be not Malay /Melayu, but as Austronesians we belong to the larger Malay-world. Before Islam, we were also heavily Indianized via Hindu and Buddhist beliefs. Its something we dont talk about often, but underpins a lot of our cultural outlook and icons /clothing/food (most evident in Bangsamoro).
But it sounds so different. I really don't see it...
Regimo = “Re heem oh”in Spanish pronunciation.
Rahim= “reh-heem” in Arabic pronunciation.
Not all ethnicities in the archipelago were plugged into this larger Malay world. Key areas such as Manila, Sulu, Mindanao and Palawan sure and then the Malay cultural influence vries relative to distance from major port cities. Until we reach the mountain areas and their culture is more akin to Taiwan or the interior areas of Borneo.
Some of the stores you showed in the video look exactly like the stores in Malaysia, like exactly the same products. The people and even some of the words are exactly them same. We basically are the same people separated by ocean and nation.
One of your best documentaries.
Whoa! This is superb! Indeed a good quality contents and a level up! I love FEATR soo much!! Thank you for this! Craving for that Arowan dish tho 🤤
29:40 when she said “i-mekus mekus mo” 😅😂
another great job!! one of the best episode so far!! very educational and inspiring, kudos!
thanks for featuring this! I was not aware of the Muslim community in Manila, now I'm more keen to explore the city given the halal choices especially authentic local cuisines!
In Sarawak, we call chicken manok too! 8:12
Pulut kuning…..omg so many similarities between us Mas and Phi
Hello, malaysian muslim in New York..so interesting about the food..
Its kind of insane and not intentional at all, but Nanay Sheba is mixing white coconut meat and fish with yellow turmeric and red chilis inside a blue bowl... colors of the Philippine flag.
We're a nation that's so diverse, but connections can be made anywhere if you're open to find them.
Treating guests with food is not a Malaysian culture, it's a malay culture / norms... More than half of the Philippines are considered as a malay whether they are muslim or christian n the rest are maybe a pacific Islander, mix breed & european / eurosian & immigrant.
When I visited a friend in Manila, they cooked curry too but instead of potato they add young papaya. Something different but delicious.
I appreciate your approach, especially up to the title. Our cultures share a rich history of ancestral travels and cultural exchanges. It is frustrating when Indonesians overlook this fact and always feel the need to assert superiority. Thank you.
I have enjoyed delicious meals in Quaipo several times. I have eaten at Wakilah Eatery. There are many similarities between the food there and in Malaysia. The most interesting one is rendang. One fascinating thing from this video is that many words have almost the same pronunciation as in Malaysia. Next week, I will be going to Manila again, and Quaipo will definitely be one of my must-visit destinations.
Beautiful and illuminating. Thank you for this
Fun Fact: According to many historical information, the Malays and the Filipinos are more closely related.
18:23 Correct ko lang si kuya. Carp is not native to Lanao. Introduced sya, along with tilapia. Hindi alam ng marami pero Lanao Lake underwent what is truly an ecological disaster dahil sa introduction ng isda. Lanao used to be home to several species of completely endemic fish, like the manalak and baolan. Almost all, if not all of them, are now sadly extinct.
Sayang it's the same in Indonesia, Lake Toba in Sumatra is filled with carp and talapia, and I am not sure if locals know local fish. Arowan or in Malay - haruan is a lake fish another is toman. Catfish is also famous in Malaysia, fish like patin and baung is cooked in coconut, chilli and fermented durian.
@@shahesfelazi8549 Arowan is Haloan or Haruan in Bisaya, Dalag in Tagalog. It's _probably_ native, or at least introduced before modern times.
Walking catfish is Pantat in Bisaya, Hito in Tagalog. It's native.
Sadly, we probably lost most of the native fish before they were documented by science. Not just in Lanao but in most other local freshwater streams and lakes, which are now uniformly full of introduced fish like tilapia, carp, gourami, guppies, mosquitofish, and even aquarium fish like swordtails and plecos.
I only know a few remaining common local freshwater fish like pait (small barb species), puyo (climbing perch), and some gobies.
@@AngryKittens gourami is not native to the Philippines? Gourami which we have several types in Malaysia, the Giant Gourami or called kaloi is native here and the Sabah Kaloi - a beautiful fish is native to Sabah. We also have the smaller rice gourami - sepat.
Puyo is puyu here - climbing perch. The walking catfish is probably keli here in Malaysia but we have also the non-native African keli.
@ Nope. No gouramis are native to the Philippines (or eastern Indonesia). AFAIK they're only native to mainland Southeast Asia and the western greater Sunda islands (Borneo, Sumatra, Java) which were once connected to the mainland, 12,000 or so years ago (except Sulawesi, which like the Philippines was never connected to the mainland).
They don't even have native names in the Philippines. They're still just called "gurami" in local languages.
We have haruan and puyo (walking perch), sadly we dpnt see them anymore. Probably extinct
Malaysia marvellous
My question his name sharif but he doesn’t even know what is the meaning of bismillah ? Wow mind blowing 😮😮
So amazing
Milo & the coffee stuff I understand because I see tourists buy in bulk to bring back home but the 'Yeo's Sotong' is a niche product 😮😊
Wow excellent content. I love it ❤❤❤❤ thank you Chef
Orang Endon berbulu tengok ni 😂
Malaydesh boleh🎉
@meong9078 besar nya alam melayu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@meong9078 1 orang Endon yg sedang berbulu 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Kasian ,endon tidak disebut 😂😂😂😂😂@@meong9078
No need. Indonesian food always influences its neighboring countries such as rendang, satay, sweet soy sauce, sambal chilli sauce, etc.
love this ❤️ im just glad hindi conyo yung narrator
Interesting that they call the yellow rice kuning, which is an Indonesian word, from the Dutch koning, meaning king. Indonesia-Philippines link next?
We also called it kuning in Tausug.
Kuning means yellow in indonesian/malay, it actually describes the color of turmeric that used in the yellow rice.
Actually Indonesia/Malaysia cuisines are almost similar. So many Malay cuisines in this video can be found in Indonesia too.
Both Malay and Maranao kuning are descended from the Proto-Malayo-Polynesian language. Those are not loan words from Dutch. What a ridiculous thing to say.
Word "Kuning" already exist before Dutch come😂😂
@@matahari8673 Thanks for this. I always thought nasi kuning meant royal rice.
Mama Sheba looks like the late Ms. Jacklyn Jose
Awee I love it!!😮🎉❤ very informative 😮
Galing nung host, alam niya talaga yung mga pagkain. Tsaka pang balanse kay Erwan.
@@paoloandreo6137 what's awesome about FEATR is that they give opportunities for other talented people to present Filipino culture to the world. Erwan is definitely a keeper 👌
Cool feature for our muslim countrymen
Amazing recipes I will surely try as well...
The whole Philippines are our brothers and sisters. Not just the ppl in the south.
i agree...many in malaysia made that simplistic assumption (just because association with muslim-influenced culture in the southern parts). I prefer to associate with the whole RP isles north to south, based on Rizal's exclamation of Malay Race (despite many different interpretations to this).
Filipinos here will relate for what i write here ,
Indonesian local here ,
I want to give a confession that the cuisine of my country isn't easy to be marketed to the global culinary scene due to the immense diversity , influenced by the geographical vastness of the country as well (( being my country as double time larger ))
I find that immense diversity of the cuisine is such a blesssing and the curse factor , thats why flavour standardisation is challenging to be done for Indonesian cuisine , another challenge is when the most under-represented food from the most under- respresented region doesn't given a spotlight , social jealousy to the region or a group with the most spotlight definitely inevitable
Guarding the flavour authenticity is hard because there are certain a very specific ingredients that only can be grown in Indonesia
Expose to the international market also challenging due to minimum support of the goverment and also diaspora of Indonesian's abroad are minimal due to Indonesian are much feel comfortable in the giant Indonesian bubble , shapens a crab mentality of the people
It's the same with Philippine cuisine. We have tropical islands cuisine, highlander cuisines, lowlander cuisines with different influences from neighboring countries and Filipinos will only introduced common dish from each region even it's not the best in our country, so we end up not introducing what we eat daily and what we eat traditionally. The only thing we can market our food are through OFW.
We were a rajahnate and sultanate before colonization
I would love to taste those different cuisine i'm from parañaque
Amazing
thank you for this vid. I rarely see food featured from mindanao or even from our SEA neighbors. also, hate to nitpick but there are some minor typos
Before Islam, Christianity and Nationalism we the malays, indonesians and Filipinos are one people
Christian come to Philippines 👉 1521
Islam come to Philippines 👉 1380
@ And Hinduism and Buddhism is in the Philippines since 9th century or 900AD long before islam and Christianity arrived so whats up?
Had the Spanish not colonized the Philippines, Filipinos would've become Islamic and became further one with other Malayic nations. Other colonial powers wouldn't have influenced much on religion. Except it already happened.
Ask any Filipino nowadays and they would say they'd rather not be an Islamic country (Malaysia has Islam as state religion) or a Muslim-majority country (like Indonesia with only 6 recognized religions).
@@justice_crash2521 atleast we all know Islam come first to Philippines than Christian 😌😁
Salam, thank you so much for sharing . Alhamdulillah 🤲🏻. Best Salam from Switzerland 💐
Very Good Cinematography 👍
I think you should've gone to Zamboanga City or Sulu Archipelago to know more about Malaysian and Tausog Foods.
malay?
indonesian, Filipino and malaysian including Bruneian are both malay which are residing in malay archipelago.
And southern Thailand
Austronesian*
@@Dragoncam13 austrenesian for some idiot who wants to divide malay people. this term is just invented by western country who claim themselve scholar but idiot in reality.
and Singapore.
@ Malay are still the native to Singapore. Singapore is still Malay belong to the Malay world no matter who’s the majority ethnic group. As long the Malay people are still around in Singapore, the national languages still Malay & our roots is still Malay, Singapore will always be Malay. Don’t discredit the Singaporean Malay. We’re tired of others telling we’re not Malay enough or being push aside for being Malay in a Chinese majority country.
I saw this video first from the DFA YT channel. Is FEATR allowed to repost this?
Ooh. Im curious about tausug food. Im ilonggo/kiniraya - western bisaya.. but withpaternal grand aunts who are tausug and sama, and a bro in law who is yakan- tausug.
And their cooking is not spiy. Although they like to have spicy condiments.
Tiyula or panay's- tinola isnt chili hot and spicy..
Spicy vinegar or sinamak is what we have.
Sulu is like Panay's muslim equivalent. So curious about what their food is like. 😅
Nyonya is not a totally chinese muslim.
Baba & Nyonya is a chinese who's married with the locals long time ago and they assimilated malays traditions into chinese traditions like speaking in malay, wearing kebaya & mix malay with chinese cuisine & many more.
But nowadays, only a small number of young generations still following baba & nyonya unique traditions.
Nice documentary!
A much respect for the dishes. Kudos FEATR
Sabah and pHilippines ❤❤❤❤
Wait their making sate lilit but without the stick 😂😂 and now i know that so much the same word with indonesia. Cant wait to go to manila this year
