    And We Malaysians are not jealous of sharing. Its not that Philipine cuisine comes from us , or ours come from Philipines. We ve been exchanging our material and cultural products for centuries and today we are still doing the same. I wull one day journey to Marawi to savour the food presented. Thank you.

    Unlike Indonesians, we Malaysians are very proud of sharing our culture and we are not fond or obsessed in claiming things (trust me, several indonesians harrased me in past youtube comment when i mentioned kangkong is very common staples in SEA, because they claimed Kangkong originates from Indonesia 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣).
    Im glad that Phillipnes, Thailand and other countries are more laid back and open minded. A good mindset opens for healthy sharing of Culture and foods, in so many ways by many kind of people. Its lovely to see this kind of documentary.

    Nyonya is not Chinese Muslim but Straits born Chinese - who are descendants of Chinese settlers from over 500 years ago and intermarried with local Malays and adapted some of the Malay culture and our colonisers culture. Their culture and food is distinctly different from the new wave of Malaysian Chinese descendants whose ancestors migrated just in the past century, and also different from the Malay

Many famous food in Indonesia such as Mee ayam, Bakso and Lumpia are Chinese. While the Malays predominantly live in Sumatra, Malaysia and Borneo adopted more Indian food culture with middle eastern food culture also. Especially in North of Malaysia and North of Sumatra you will see a lot more Malay cuisine used a lot more Indian spices in their Gulai. Filipino is unique becasue they are too far from Indian influence and they also adopted many Chinese aspect so many of their cuisine are more similar to authentic early period Malay. Such as the White palapa, Malay used to have white palapa or we call it Serunding Kelapa also because we also didnt used red chilies until the Portuguese introduce red chilies to Malacca 600 years ago. Before the Portuguese came all our spicy food are made with green peppers adn black peppers. No chillies involve. The Maranao used of bawang dayak or sakurab is also how Malay used to cook theri food with that but after load of imported red inions from india came they switch from using sakurab to red onions.

Think of the demographics of nearby areas to be closely related thus we in East Malaysia actually have much more in common culturally with Brunei, Kalimantan and Southern PH than West Malaysia. We from the East Malaysia can trace a lot of similarities to Philippines and studies also theorises that some aboriginals of East Malaysia may trace our origin from Taiwan as well.

    Regimo was a hispanized reading of Abdur-Rahim. We may be not Malay /Melayu, but as Austronesians we belong to the larger Malay-world. Before Islam, we were also heavily Indianized via Hindu and Buddhist beliefs.

Until we reach the mountain areas and their culture is more akin to Taiwan or the interior areas of Borneo.

    Malaysian here! This content is so heartwarming, I almost cried at the end of it. It's so fascinating to see how we were all connected through food and culture. There are Maranao dishes that I know are equivalent to some Malaysian dishes too, and it's so fun to learn them.
    Even the culture of celebrating special occasions with Nasi Kuning (Yellow Rice) is also something that we Malaysians do and I think it must be presevered for years to come ❤
    Love from Malaysia. I love my SEA siblings so much

    17:49 we always do this during weddings/events especially in the Malay villages where we call it ‘air basuh tangan’ which translates to ‘water for hand-washing’. It’s cultural & common courtesy to always have this ready for guests to make it easy for them to clean their hands before and after meals. Also, the fish cooked in coconut milk and turmeric (and assumed chilli too) ia very similar to our ‘masak lemak’ dish in Malaysia. We are way more similar than we know. Thank you for shedding light on our similarities.

Hindi alam ng marami pero Lanao Lake underwent what is truly an ecological disaster dahil sa introduction ng isda.

Arowan or in Malay - haruan is a lake fish another is toman. Catfish is also famous in Malaysia, fish like patin and baung is cooked in coconut, chilli and fermented durian.

      @@shahesfelazi8549 Arowan is Haloan or Haruan in Bisaya, Dalag in Tagalog. It's _probably_ native, or at least introduced before modern times.
      Walking catfish is Pantat in Bisaya, Hito in Tagalog. It's native.
      Sadly, we probably lost most of the native fish before they were documented by science. Not just in Lanao but in most other local freshwater streams and lakes, which are now uniformly full of introduced fish like tilapia, carp, gourami, guppies, mosquitofish, and even aquarium fish like swordtails and plecos.
      I only know a few remaining common local freshwater fish like pait (small barb species), puyo (climbing perch), and some gobies.

      @ Nope. No gouramis are native to the Philippines (or eastern Indonesia). AFAIK they're only native to mainland Southeast Asia and the western greater Sunda islands (Borneo, Sumatra, Java) which were once connected to the mainland, 12,000 or so years ago (except Sulawesi, which like the Philippines was never connected to the mainland).
      They don't even have native names in the Philippines. They're still just called "gurami" in local languages.

    Filipinos here will relate for what i write here ,
    Indonesian local here ,
    I want to give a confession that the cuisine of my country isn't easy to be marketed to the global culinary scene due to the immense diversity , influenced by the geographical vastness of the country as well (( being my country as double time larger ))
    I find that immense diversity of the cuisine is such a blesssing and the curse factor , thats why flavour standardisation is challenging to be done for Indonesian cuisine , another challenge is when the most under-represented food from the most under- respresented region doesn't given a spotlight , social jealousy to the region or a group with the most spotlight definitely inevitable
    Guarding the flavour authenticity is hard because there are certain a very specific ingredients that only can be grown in Indonesia
    Expose to the international market also challenging due to minimum support of the goverment and also diaspora of Indonesian's abroad are minimal due to Indonesian are much feel comfortable in the giant Indonesian bubble , shapens a crab mentality of the people

We have tropical islands cuisine, highlander cuisines, lowlander cuisines with different influences from neighboring countries and Filipinos will only introduced common dish from each region even it's not the best in our country, so we end up not introducing what we eat daily and what we eat traditionally. The only thing we can market our food are through OFW.
