The State Chinese Penang Association with kawan kawan
The Perfect Hostess
Rare breed, young Peranakan girls,
as they make up about only 2.6%
of the population in Trengganu
The party was warm and lively
More young Peranakan gils!
Trengganu is doing very well in bringing
them onboard.
As as with any Peranakan festivities,
the food takes centre stage with their
colourful kuehs and flavourful breads.
Roti Paun, a favourite bread whose flavour
comes from the butter filling in the bun
savoury akok manis
nasi kerabu, Trengganu style
my plate of local delights1
Rambo size Satay.
I am thankful I was invited on this table
of Trengganu Peranakans, sowarm and friendly.
They made me feel like I have known them all
my life. If I am living in Trengganu, I would have
picked these ladies to be my best friends!
Joget time!
The nyonyas get on the floor for a rousing ronggeng.
Alex from Trengganu, Penang Nyonya, and Kelantan Awang
One of the nicest things when we meet is to see
seniors having a good time on the dance floor.
When Baba meets Nyonya on the dancefloor.
But not just any nyonya, but the 'unsinkable'
Molly Mak, flirty, and giving this cowboy a run around.
Singer and choir from Trengganu belts
popular tunes that's good enough to get
everyone on the dancefloor.
More Trengganu beauties, the future
face of the Trengganu Peranakan Association.
