Book Synopsis Chinese Studies of the Malay World by : Choo Ming Ding
Download or read book Chinese Studies of the Malay World written by Choo Ming Ding. This book was released on 2003. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based upon a colloquium on Chinese Studies of the Malay World, held at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia's Institute of the Malay World and Civilisation. The September 2002 event provided a forum for scholars to discuss the Chinese experience of the Malay world. Much of the significance of the colloquium comes from the fact that the Chinese are a minority in Malaysia living under constitutional restrictions. The study of one ethnicity by another would not be a controversial subject except for the fact that the relationship between the two groups, in this case the Malays and the Chinese, is so highly charged.
