To those who may not know, my mother is a Malaccan Nyonya - which makes me a descendant of the Peranakan culture! But heh, I'm not one who practices it (due to ignorance) and what better way to rediscover it by reporting it for my Intercultural Comm assignment!
I found some vids on YouTube which may best explain what Baba Nyonya is all about!

Another interesting sneak peak on Peranakan weddings
Growing up, I've always enjoyed watching this sitcom called "Baba dan Nyonya" starring Kenny Chan as Bibik Kim Neo (yesyes, a dude dressing up as a aunty like Jack Neo). Recently they have a newer sitcom - The BIG Bibik and the Little Nyonyas.

Alright, that's all for this little update. Back to my piling assignments! View blog reactions
