THE CHINESE ISLAND INSIDE MALAYSIA 🇲🇾

- On my last day in Malaysia I decided to go explore Pulau Ketam or Crab Island in English. I thought this was going to be a traditional Malaysian Village but what unfolded for my eyes once I set foot on the island was completely different. The island turned out to be all Chinese. This is: THE CHINESE ISLAND INSIDE MALAYSIA

Good morning 😮i@@hix213
They don't like speak Malay language and Malay culture
It is kind of " Chinese enclave" These can be found in various countries around the world where Chinese communities have settled or formed over time.
Crab Island people became arrogant even not in their own country
Chinese is a strong "ethnic identity" for sure...and that holds pretty much worldwide - which can be inferred from the concept of "China towns" even in big American cities, ie shop signages in Chinese characters, Chinese foods, etc etc. Whats different is the level of "assimilation" of these Chinese diasporas into their home nations - in general, under British-empire model of immigration, Chinese diasporas were encouraged to retain their ethnic identity closely and distinct from their home nations' indigenous identity. Examples are Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, even Australia, NZ.
Whereas Chinese diasporas in non-British empire areas tend to "assimilate" closely into indigenous culutures eg Thailand, Vietnam, the Phillipines.
As for Malaysia, the rights to practice everyday languages (Chinese & Indian) ~ schooling, printing newspapers, radio & TV stations, etc ~ were incorporated into our nation's founding constitutions.
As a non-Chinese Malaysian, I personally do not see these as a hinderance, but rather a strength factor for the country.
I think foreigners are always confuse when we identify ourselves as Chinese - meaning Malaysian local chinese. Our parents are born here.. we are born here too. Foreigners always think that because they are in Malaysia, all of us are Malay s 😅
Some foreign tourists are just arrogant and ignorant. They just like to comment without knowing the facts
These TH-camrs know very little about the places they are visiting and make stupid comments on everything they encountered. They are not qualified to be a TH-camr.
To be exact the temple is Toaist temple not actually Buddhist temple , there is a different between both then sometime have mix between both
An ignorant from Europe should not simply introduce a foreign land without first reading about it. This is a new world, not 18th century where European face is all you need to roam the world.
Spot on
He, obviously is very much influenced by the pervasive western media when he speaks about Chinese intel here. He needs to read, travel & learn more about other cultures.
@tfgoh4984 that was downright ignorant on his part. Seriously he's influenced by western crappy media. I am disgusted by that remark and his general condescending attitude
Ethnic chinese here speak Chinese to ethnic Chinese. We are not indonesian Chinese who cannot speak Chinese to each other. Please understand. We can speak malay And English but not expert of course.
Etnik Chinese don't like speak in Bahasa melayu
Kindly be advised that these Chinese people here are MALAYSIAN Chinese.
They predominantly speak Chinese because they are the majority on Pulau Ketam, Malaysia.
This is a Malaysian island and these people are Malaysian Citizens.
Thank you for your videos, though.
They came ! They saw! They conquered
In Malaysia you can find china island, China Town, little India, mini Dacca, little rakhien, kampung baru........mini Jakarta......
Mini Afrika..mini manila..
Malay is a ethnicity Malaysian is a citizenship, these people are Malaysian Chinese. it's like saying American Chinese shouldn't call themselves Chinese
If you go to Panji island in Phunga Thailand, you will see 99% of the inhabitants there are Muslim Malays...not Buddhist Thais.
Bro, You need To Do Research on our Malaysia Chinese. You seems so curious...and confuse... 😂
This is exactly the comment I’m searching for 😂
WELCOME TO MSIA SIR...HOPE YOU ENJOY OUR COUNTRY VISIT...MSIA IS TRULY ASIA.
Bro
you are confused, when you meet local Chinese people, they are Malaysian Chinese, all of them speak malay because all of them have attended national school where the medium of teaching is bahasa Malaysia (malay language)
Westerners like you need to know that China is the world's longest, continuous civilisation, spanning over 5,000 years. During the 19th and early 20th Century, when China was suffering from wars and famine, many Chinese emigrated all over the world to seek a better life, and one of these countries was Malaysia. With such a long, cultural heritage, it is not surprising they retain their identity wherever they go.
I know that. What’s interesting to me how they don’t seem to mingle with local cultures much, where ever they go. They still identify as Chinese even after generations outside of China
@@PilgartExplores In many countries, especially in the West, they faced racism and discrimination, and many still do. In the US, for example, the government introduced the Chinese Exclusion Act to stop Chinese immigration. In Australia, there was the White Australia Policy. The number of ethnic Chinese born in Malaysia used to be much higher but many have left due to discriminatory treatment by the native people. Unlike the Europeans, the Chinese never went abroad to plunder, exploit, colonise or seek to enforce their culture and way of life on others.
Crab Island is dominated by malaysian chinese.. Carey Island located southeast from Crab Island is dominated by the Mah Meri people .. one of the aboriginal malaysian ethnics
Lots of Chinese Malaysians have lived there for a long time hundreds of years. 2nd biggest ethnic group in Malaysia.
So strange how they are so isolated though
@@PilgartExplores it's an island so more isolated. In the cities it's more mixed but people still keep their culture.
Fenerbahçe ❤️
hermoso lugar todo limpio y ordenado, me gusta mucho saludos Sebastian , mucha fortuna y felicidad
Muchas gracias
muy bonito video esa isla parece una mini ciudad muy pequeña pero es muy pintoresca. saludos de lima peru.
Una pequeña ciudad si
In your video, you sounded surprised to see Chinese in Malaysia and making discriminatory fun of Chinese by calling them Chinese CIA. Before you visit a country, please do some research on the country's demographic statistics. Rather than making fun and commenting them on they dont understand English. Malaysia has many races. I wonder what happens if you walk into Indian areas in Malaysia and what your comments will be.
I think you have spent too much time in South America. In South-East Asia, most countries are multi-cultural with different ethnicity and cuisines.
My surprise wasn't to see Chinese in Malaysia. I have seen plenty through out my trip. My surprise was seeing an entire island being completely Chinese, when I was told it was a traditional Malaysian island. It was like a country within a country. A very interesting place indeed
Alot of misinformation
1) the temple is not Buddhist...its a Taoist temple and infused with abit of Buddhism
2) malaysian chinese approx 95% can speak at least 2 languages. ( Malay, chinese dialect) or Malay english) or( chinese dialect , malay english) (chinese dialect, mandarin, english, malay)
3) thr leaves in the curry crab was curry leaves
👍
🤘🏻
been to that island long time ago to buy drinks when i was on fishing trip...feels like you''re in a different country lol
Absolutely it does. It’s like a country within a country
lol, after finishing watching the video. Long answer short, nothing fishy going on. You're in a Chinese majority place. There are Indian majority places, Malay majority places. There are tons of such rural places all over the country. In rural areas, typically their English is not as good as in the city/urban folks, as these people do not communicate with English speakers often.
This may be a shocker to westerners, we Chinese speak Chinese to a Chinese. We speak Malay to a Malay. And Tamil to an Indian. Nothing new. These people have been here for a long time.
I find that you waking up a man from his sleep was quite a dick move. It's pretty disrespectful imo. Learn the cultures, be respectful and don't judge. Lastly please tell me, you took off your shoes when you enter places of worship. This isn't Europe.
The two ladies were wearing their shoes as well. I always watch the locals and do what they do
Yes.. generally we can wear shoes into a temple or a church ..
Whenever u enter a holy place, u hv to remove yr shoes, this is a sign of respect & Humility.
@@estheryew2149 definitely NOT in a temple
Where is 'quqla pool'? Never heard of this. You must mean Kuala Lumpur. Get your facts right!
Hi PilgAr. Where i can buy that wonderfull Ferenbahçe Jersey? I need it! Wonderfull video, as always :)
You can find it in the markets of Istanbul
@@PilgartExplores Gracias Sebastian, difícil para mí llegar hasta allá XD, pero gracías por la información ^^
I'm a fan of Galatasary
Today, the Chinese presence in Malaysia is largely due to historical migration and the pursuit of economic opportunities. There is no evidence of espionage related to this particular community in Malaysia for now.
In general, relations between Malays and Chinese in Malaysia may vary, but in many cases they coexist peacefully and contribute to the country's economic development.
See you in your next chapter 😎
Yeah the Chinese generally seem to stick to themselves. That my impression so far from traveling out here in Asia. But yeah they generally seem to live together in rather peacefully
@@PilgartExplores 😁
Espionage? How brainwashed these people are! Please keep these in your own world, don't bring them to our country.

Hi Sebastián How are you? Have you already thought which is gonna be your next destination?
Absolutely! I’m already there, make sure you follow me on Instagram to keep up to date with the day to day
Love the videos keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
Development has improved facilities there.
I can imagine
Siakap is known as Barramundi🇦🇺 or Asian Sea Bass 🇬🇧
Muy buen video 🤩🤩
Muchas gracias
You look good on your football shirts.
Thank you!
They are Malaysians just ethnically Chinese. Maybe it is time to rebrand ourselves Tiong Hua to differentiate us from chinese nationals.
That's Taoism I think. Buddhism is easy to spot. You see lots of Buddhas. lol. If you see different deities but are Chinese, most likely Taoism. I might be wrong. I'm not a religious Buddhist. :P
Edit : OK, the lady said it's part of Buddhism. Oh well. I'm a bad Buddhist.
Buddhism at advanced level
Kuan Yin is the Goddess of Mercy and is revered by both Taoists and Buddists. The first temple is more a Taoist temple
@@PilgartExplores
Those temples you see are Taoist temples. They do have elements of Buddhist practise as well.
It's not Buddhism for sure.
It's more of the Chinese folk religion. They offer gifts and respect to the local spirits there.
Te vi año pasado en Ecuador 🇪🇨😂
Viva Ecuador 🇪🇨
I take it as an insult when you saiy the island was full of Chinese and Chinese cultures.
When in fact "ethnic Chinese" makes up over 1/3 of Malaysia's entire population. And the Chinese have been living in Malaysia for hundred of years.
Just stating the the obvious
You look so much like Viktor Axelsen, the younger version.😅
A few people told me that in Malaysia 😅
sebastian 👍
Bom dia!
@@PilgartExplores boa sebastian
PilgArt, I’ve followed you through Latin America from Canada. I would recommend you visit the Philippines 🇵🇭. Amazing and friendly people and they speak English.
I'd love to go to Philippines, but it's not in the plans for this trip. Next time I come out this way
Go to perhatian island in Terengganu Malaysia
Perhentian*
Sebastian number one❤
Thanks
Mi bro ya esta en Peru oliver sone , listo para defender a mi bicolor
HEEEEY KITTEN ✌🏻
What’s up
Loop sided video coupled with a provoking caption..No doubt all the residents there are ethnic Chinese but there are also 100s of migrant workers from the neighbouring countries working there.. Also all the police officers, nurses and teachers based there are ethnic Malays..
Chinese are not known by their warmth , helpfulness, kindness as shown in this Crabby Island🤬
18:50 truly right, born n raised in another country still identify emself as chinese..Not Malaysians..tapi nk mintak hak sama dgn bumi..😏 selagi sekola vernakular x dihapus ni la masalah dia sampai ke sudah..
You are truly a racist malay.
Jesus loves you Sebastian
🙏🏼🙏🏼
JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAJAJAJAJA 😂
😅😅😅
You can find crap(sea rubbish) and crab both.
😅😅😅
No No No No...not Buddhism....Buddhism does not worship those idols....more like Taoism....
Are these people gets the land for free...
It's so cringy watching this video. It's feels you still couldn't differentiate race and nationality, shocking, since you are a seasoned traveler. They are all Malaysian of Chinese ethnicity. This island belongs to Malaysia.
¿ Qué país es ese ? se almuerza con un martillo, prefiero un tenedor de plastico. Chau
Ha ha ha, then you are missing the delicious crab meat.
@@davidtwliew616 Cangrejos es un insecto ! un asco.
OMG! How ignorant! A country within a country?
Chinese taoist religion
Dah boleh claim warisan dunia la....
Nga X suka ni,,dia suka min yuen
Its a sign of negativity and. Not good for malaysia. These are product immigrant during British etc.. Stayed in community.
We don't see anything like malaysia.. We don't see malaysian flag, writing all. In chinese at least write too in Malays to show identity of the country. As if u are in chinese communist country.
They don't like Bahasa melayu
