We are proud of you guys are so intrigued of learning our traditional Baju Melayu! Don't worry my friend, we absolutely have no problem and in fact, we are truly thankful and happy if you guys would love to try our traditional attire as long as you respect and just want to learn new experiences! In Malaysia, it is not unusual for different ethnic groups to try each other's traditional outfit as long as we respect each other's norm and guidelines. Trust me, you will look perfect in Baju Melayu when you do visit Malaysia! Yes it is true the current modernizing era might have changed our Baju Melayu perhaps a little bit, but it is just merely from the outside, the true inner meaning of Baju Melayu still remained unchanged as it is our symbolism that give us identity of Malay which must be protected! Baju Melayu and Baju Kurung is still worn commonly as today like for example going to market, officework, military and school too! I hope you two have a wonderful day! 😊🇲🇾
Fuyyooo Hafiz kena pin lah, tahniah...tumpang bangga
Very well said👍☺ betul betul betul😁
As a Malaysian, I'm more than happy and appreciate of your willingness to experience Malaysian Malay culture and I'm very proud of that.
There are many Western foreigners who happen to work in Malaysia will surely have this attitre when attending Hari Raya event or some vloggers.
So ...there's no problem about that.
It's just a culture open to everybody.
everybody can wear the outfit, muslims & non-muslims alike.. it's just an attire normally used by the Malays in Malaysia, for special occasions like marriage, religious festivals, official functions.. but it can also be worn for everyday use.. you will not offend anybody if you wear them.. the non-muslims in malaysia also wear them.. it's not so much a 'religious gear' so please buy one or two when you are in Malaysia..
Yess ..can buy anywhare if buy in kl size is easy but a bit high but outside could be bit cheaper.. but i thing laaa.. depend on your nasib laaa..hahaha
In Malaysia, you can wear whatever traditional outfit you want. People here would be so happy to see you wear it. There's no such thing as cultural appropriation bs in Malaysia.
Lol!! That bs is on point!
Ya, you two should get one. In Malaysia, even the soldiers wear baju melayu. If you buy and wear baju melayu, I would be proud not offended.
Its a traditional Malay attire, its okey to be worn by anybody regardless of faith and race.
The colors of these outfits look stunning. I'd love to rock one.
...and, you should😉.
For me, it's really neat for men. They'll usually look more elegant in a manly way in baju melayu.
On friday, even my non muslim colleagues wear it to work, so the whole office will be like some celebration with kurtas and baju melayu. With food brought to office some more. Yeah, we like to celebrate anytime, anywhere.
So much fun...
Anybody can wear Baju Melayu. It’s an honour for us Malay to see other people wearing it.
Sure. Not a problem to purchase, receive and wear it. As long as it adhered to norms, it should be alright. Sometimes, instead of full gear, most will wear the "baju" with usual slacks or
Long pants.
Kain pelikat jgn dilupa
Its not religion. Just a Malay philosophy..to reminds the malays. But everybody can wear it. No problem at all.
Anyone can wear baju melayu regardless of religion.
Baju Melayu is a national costume of Malaysia. It can be worn on leisure and mostly on official occasions. The philosophies are the beauties of the Malay culture.
Even the Malaysian contingent wear them in international events such as the Olympics, Commonwealth and Asian Games however its not meant only for Malays. Anyone can wear it.
Its our proud trademark.
I thought it is baju batik 🤔. Maybe that is modern national costume
@@daisuke910 batik is an element of traditional craft. Baju Melayu is a costume
For me costume in not the right word, attire is much better word
In fact in the video you just watched, the guy with earrings and the dark toned chad are Non-Muslims and Non-Malays Malaysians. So it’s totally okay to wear Baju Melayu.
ANYONE can wear it, guys. That include you guys too. It is not offensive at all. I'm sure you guys will look great!😉. If you're visiting Malaysia this year, do make it a point to buy one...or perhaps, two...in different colours. Cheers.
Truly honest reaction from you guys...In fact,Baju Melayu also wearing at certain event or occasion...Normally,for Muslim Malay,it would be wear during prayer in the mosque...But,this outfit also can be wear at any time and any place if u like.This dress also significantly used for male bride (Malay custom) to wear it in their wedding days...Thank u so much for your thought...
kalau wear anytime panas oh... the fabric material does not have ventilation..
Based on my knowledge, Baju melayu is just our traditional clothes, got nothing to do with islam, the religion. We don't get sin, you know, punished by religion for doing anything to baju melayu( like burn it or step on it). It's just, most things designed based on our religion to represent our belief, as a country.
Im sure all Malays allover Southeast Asia would be proud if you wear baju melayu. I think the only thing that isn't appropriate is if you taking pictures/videos while having a beer can or bottle in your hand or something similar
I agree. That is kind of offensive because that's (drinking alcohol) not the norm of Malay culture in Malaysia. In other place, I am not sure.
Sure, of course u guys can wear it eventhough u guys r not muslim. In Malaysia, everyone wear it regardless religion. Theres no offensif if u guys really like it and im can't wait to see u guys wear it
Yup true
Teluk belanga is more airy b'ce of d'weather and cekak musang is for smart look
. . . . And theres the casual friday, wear anything you like to the office on friday. . . .
Malaysian loves to share our culture with everyone. Yeah u should get one. We'd be proud
for any man who wears a complete 'baju melayu' will automatically look handsome and charming 💜👏👍
tbh everyone can wear baju melayu and baju kurung here in Malaysia. We also wear it as a 'professional outfit' for work. Especially those who work in the government, like teachers etc.
As long you're being respectful, there's nothib wrong with wearing malay traditional clothes.
number 3
cool studio guys
you two are still handsome as always, and I think the baju melayu will be looking good on you two🤣
also when will you guys stream 👀
Proud to be Malaysian...
It is not offensive for us. Go for it. Mostly the Malaysian will appreciate others to join in their culture and learn more about it. I own a baju melayu but I think of getting dhoti (Malaysian Indian attire) and samfu (Chinese Malaysian attire). I am mix Malay-Chinese.
Malaysians usually feel very honoured when non Malaysians wear our traditional outfits.
Your dedication on constantly making content about malaysia makes me going to subs your channel.
The single button or the teluk belanga style is more common in the state of Johor where it originated, and Johoreans wear it with the shirt over the kain samping. The cekak musang style is the one most commonly worn for official/formal functions. You can also wear it with 3 buttons which is a modernised version which probably came about because some may find the buttoned collar a bit constricting.
By the way, try and watch the Kumaar Family channel. Husband is Malaysian and wife is American.
Sure all people can wear Baju Melayu. We love that everybody wear our traditional or modern Baju Melayu 🥰
Don't worry. You should get one and wear one. It's not offensive at all! They Malays love the appreciation. Trust me, you will even get a discount. And if you're lucky enough someone will actually pay on behalf of you. LOL!
Its just a cultural dress, any type of symbolism there is just philosophical not directly related to Islamic tradition, any kind of buttons is okay. . . . . etc
Its different than the 'cross' where it has become the exclusive symbol for the Christian religion, whereby the symbolism attached to the malay dress is purely cultural, nothing to do with the islamic religion. . . . hope thats clear thanks guys, good job what youre doing 👍
Yes you can wear Baju Melayu
Don't worry, it's just a symbolism. At the end of the day, the attire is just a culture. Yet, i do wanted to see both of you wearing Malaysian traditional attires.
My Muslims brothers here in 🇵🇭 wore that traditional attire...
It was originally designed representing islamic culture but as time goes by, it is only a malay traditional costume. Anybody can definitely wear it. Nobody care about the symbolic meaning behind it. It is just a type of clothing in Malaysia. 😊🇲🇾
Honestly no one should be offended by anyone who would try out the baju melayu,, it’s such an honor for anyone to try out out traditional outfit. It has always been such a respect to the malay culture even when non-malays wear it on any occasions and especially during Eid. Also it does have symbolism, but modern fashion has varied the traditional form in so many ways so there’s nothing to worry
No it's not offensive..At 8:26 if you're notice, other racial also wear Malay outfit... Purple one is Indian and the peach one is Chinese..So it's okay guys
On the contrary, I think you'll probably find the Malaysians would be very pleased if you wear the national dress to honor their culture.
the outfit itself isnt necessary from the islamic teaching but its more of a malay way of clothing from long time ago(even before islamic sultanate come in place). thats why its more of cultural clothing rather than islamic clothing. the one button thing or any islamic symbol that being put on the cloth only come around when islam become more acceptable in malayan kingdom.
as long as the cloth are not being associate with other religion symbol or activities(or other prohibited stuff in islam), no one will care that much tbh.
I suggest you watch Bersyukur Seadanya MV. Everyone looking so goooooood wearing baju melayu😁
Wear it correctly.. complete the 5 pieces. You should be looking goooooooood... cant wait to see you guys in it.
You guys should by a few colors when you guys come..
purchase it man, wear it.. make sure the color match .. it will be an honor for us when other races wear it ...
Both of you or anyone are welcome to purchase and wear "Baju Melayu". Infact, i'll invite anyone to wear it as long you respect the culture behind it. Because anyone wearing "Baju Melayu" or "Baju Kurung" for female, will look good in it. Trust me,i have friend that look great wearing it. Aside for me who look kinda normal i guess.
come here and get one with sampin, i bet u look amazing! u wont regret it, best outfit for most official occasions, event!
In malaysia. Not only muslim malay wear it. Also chinese and indian. It doesnt trigger muslim. As long they know how to respect it
cool hoodie mile
good content
Your guys can wear it to. No problem.
As a Malay, it's not offensive for you guys to try them on. In fact, it'll be an honor for the West to check our traditional clothings. Some of the main aspects of the Baju Melayu is to exude proper decorum and etiquette in society. Mild-mannerisms and gentleness are the highlights of our culture. Hence, the Baju Melayu is the physical adornments to display them.
REACTION TO O.V.A ' CHECKMATE ' OFFICIAL MV 🌺🇲🇾 ≈ MALAYSIA BOYGROUP
We love and more happy if non Malay wear baju melayu..
It is not offensive at all. As long as didnt do anything disrespect while wearing it. It actually makes us proud and some malaysian woman actually really like man wearing baju melayu. It looks smart and it is formal but also can be a casual outfir for us
As a Malay, would love to see you guys wearing baju melayu. If you come here someone would probably get you guys baju melayu for free lol.
This "cultural appropriation" nonsense is an American thing. The rest of the world is pretty chill about it. Of course, be sensible. Wear it properly, and no one gonna be pissed at you.
Don’t worry it’s not offensive! Do wear it and show us if you ever found one. Although the meanings of the baju is closely related to the Islamic faith. It does not exclude people of other faith, religion or race from ever donning one. Because technically it is considered to be more of a cultural attire rather than a religious one.
👍👍👍
Dannggg, im early af
Btw, cultural appropriation is an American thing, most people from other culture will be very happy if foreigners embracing their culture like wearing their cultural clothes and eating their food. Especially Asians.
The islamic symbolism came after the Islamization of the land. The old traditional baju melayu even come with a 'tekua' a waist length jacket or hip length jacket to go with the whole look. Usually wore by dignitary official during 14-17th century.
I think what would be considered as inappropriate is when someone wear baju melayu but miss the point of dress modestly. Or did something that not common for malay muslim like drink Alcohol. It might triggered some sensitivity.
Other than that everyone can wear Baju Melayu no matter what race or religion.
100% Malaysian want to see TC wearing our traditional Baju Melayu
i think baju melayu is made for the the purpose of identification (if you are muslim or not)
but now we only wear it for praying, in any appropriates ceremony and for style
so nobody will really care if you wear it as long as your purpose is not to mocking the culture
Kain sampin imerupakan sebutan yang betul bukan kain samping.
Sampin
Ada tempat panggil samping ada yang panggil sampin
It has nothing to do with religion.. but it is related to the Malay Tradition. In the old day.. the Samping has many multi purpose use.. one of them is as a weapon..
Of course u can purchase n wear it. It just a symbolism nothing to do with religion but dont wear baju melayu while drinking beer🤣🤣
Basicaly this were not a realigion clothes,but the melayu(malay) culture that have change to fit the islamic religion rule,it a culture but don't use it the wrong way,for example the sampin,if you use it upper the knees meaning that you're single,if lower part it mean you're married,but if a married person wear sampin upper the knees that mean he wanted to marry another woman(adding wife).the way you tight it,i just preffer you to tight it just like all people do.and this sampin in the old time,they basically 2 type of them one was songket which is use by the royal family and kain sarung/pelikat majority melayu people,but now,everyone can wear the songket one..And the function of this sampin so baaicaly melayu people like to travel yeah bc they are like to travel by the sea,you can sea how different a malay and other part of the world loving their land,example you guy will say i love my homeland,which you only loving the land,but the malay people in ther language say kami sayang tanah air kami,which kean we love our land and sea,so bc they always travel,they will use their sampin as a prayer mat,and somehows we also use it as a weapon,beside the keris.today we use songkok and tengkolok on our hat,but in old time we use tengkolok,different type of tengkolok represent different type and describe a person
Next reaction to prank bahasa and Instagram by piki Naki 😍😍 and reaction again to tenggo wecaksono part 27 thanks from Indonesian 🇮🇩🇮🇩
Phez suit darker colour shade, blue or green, Miles lighter colour
As non muslim, you can wear it, no problem
I guarantee if you make a Vlog wearing baju Melayu for a day, you will have twenty thousand views in 24 hours
Tbf, one race not being able to wear other races things is literally only western things. Like, nobody outside of the western side really care, in fact, we celebrate those who wear it just for the simple reason they think it looks beautiful.
You guys look like the guys from Cinnamontoastken channel
I guarantee, if u guys wear this baju melayu u'll most extra handsome...haha. Uolls mark my word. 😂👍
Samping also hv another purpose.. for man to take care of his aurat & akhlak.. i don't know how to put into words 🤪😹
I don't think it would be a problem, because it's culture and not religion. If I'm wrong please tell me.
Early
i mean. it's "baju" ofc you can wear it.
In Islam or in Quran there is no mention about "baju Melayu". It just only a racial traditional outfit. Nothing is connected between the clothes and Islam. So u can wear and enjoy it. I mean everyone can wear it.
Busana melayu
The elements are meant to symbolise Islam in the society, but it's mainly just culture. There is no such thing as baju melayu and baju kurung in Islamic understanding and such. ;)
let me know ur measurements.. i'll send you a pair of each
probably only wokey wokey Americans would think its offensive,no offense.both of you would look great wearing this attire.i just lobe to think it like the kingsman movie suit,and this is our kings men suit,for a gentleman and a warrior
can wear, just wear it in the next video.
make sure ur belly is flat so that the samping wont slide down. heheh
nah even me malay itself dont know theres a meaning of it haha... its not kind of religious outfit but more to tradional..so why not you guys try to wear it
ANYONE CAN WEAR IT... Don't have to be Muslim to wear it
Jews history is fairytale 😂🤣
