Today only 4% of Indonesians consider themselves Malay, and they are mostly confined to small regions in Sumatra like Riau and Jambi. The other ethnic groups are Javanese (40%), Sundanese (15%), Batak (5%), Bugis (5%) etc etc etc.<br /><br />Muhyiddin has Bugis ancestry, like Jibby (ha ha ha). Neither one had ancestors who were originally from Malaya/Riau/Jambi but instead they came from non-Malay regions in Indonesia (in the case of Jibby Sulawesi).<br /><br />Muhyiddin was born in Muar, Johor, Malaysia. His father, Haji Muhammad Yassin bin Muhammad, was of Bugis descent. Muhammad Yassin was an Islamic theologian and cleric based in Bandar Maharani, Muar, Johor, while his mother, Hajjah Khadijah binti Kassim, was of Javanese descent.<br /><br />Who can forget Jibby was given a grand homecoming when he visited his ancestral home in Sulawesi.<br /><br />Or Zahid Hamidi's mumbling a few Javanese phrases on RTI to show off his Javanese heritage.<br /><br />In fact one can argue Toonsie is more "Malay" than we tease him for, because his mother was Kedah Malay and his father was half Penang Malay. So Toonsie is 75% Malay if you like, and 25% Kerala-ise.<br /><br />Mahathir was born at his parents' home in a poor neighbourhood at Lorong Kilang Ais, Alor Setar, the capital of the Malay sultanate of Kedah, which was then a British protectorate, on 10 July 1925. His mother, Wan Tempawan, was a Malay of Kedah. His father, Mohamad Iskandar, was a Penang Malay of partly Indian ancestry.<br /><br />And I need not go into the ancestry of Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Hussein Onn, Badawi (Hadrami - Yemeni?, Hainanese maternal grandfather).TShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14536181190331052335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11109306.post-75212511528874452902020-07-16T13:26:44.935+08:002020-07-16T13:26:44.935+08:00i think jeyakumar hv a point, thats y we shd be mo...i think jeyakumar hv a point, thats y we shd be more considerate of what mahathir did, its dap people like ronnie, ramkaspal n sangeet that cause all the problem.HYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13569953968996951830noreply@blogger.com
