I lived in beautiful Malaysia which rich in tradition, we have Malays, Chinese, Indias.
Other significant groups are the indigenous races of Sarawak and Sabah, that is, the Dayaks, Kadazans(Dusuns), Bajaus, Melanaus and Muruts.
The above journal page is based on the my previous trip to Malacca (my favorite state)
At the Left page : Postcard found in a antique shop
At the Right page : The wedding photo of Baba & Nyonya*, Bound Feet Shoes, Tradition Paper Cutting, Wood Culture and Malacca Buildings.
* The first Chinese to settle in the straits, primarily in and around Malacca, gradually adopted elements of Malaysian culture and intermarried with the Malaysian community. Known as babas and nonyas, they eventually produced a synthetic set of practices, beliefs, and arts, combining Malay and Chinese traditions in such a way as to create a new culture
