Peranakan refers to a group of people that migrated to Singapore Malaysia at the very early stages. They are the first batch of imigrant that intergrate their origin culture and local culture and become a special culture. Among this , the culture of Baba Nyonya which is a mixture of local Malay culture with Chinese community is more well known.
The custom of Singapore Airlines SIA, is designed base on Baju Kebaya.
If you ever travel with SIA, you would be impressed by their stewardress custom :
The traditional Baba Nyonya style bed also in gallery for display. (But personally I feel the white lanterns like a bit scary)
Peranakan utensils also of special design and style , looks very attractive , maybe the special design makes Nyonya food looks tastier ?
Some new fashion design based on Nyonya culture, looks attractive right ?
So if you are travelling via Singapore Changi Terminal 4, do spare some 30min to visit this Peranakan Gallery.
