The funniest population to react to East Asian dislike of of fans and wind drafts (to the point that there's such a belief of fan death, and you can find auto switches for JP/KR-sold fans that'll switch off standing fans at night because it's considered unhealthy to sleep with the fan on*) has to be Malaysians and Singaporeans because:
1. Standing fans ONLY? we have *ceiling fans*
2. Fans only? We turn on the a/c AND the fan at the same time 
3. There's even 2-in-1 units like in the pic lmao
Anyway this is weird behaviour outside our respective countries but natch, it makes sense to meeee.
*I'm understating it. They believe you'll die.
Apparently Bill O'Reilly was pooh-poohing the coincidental ASEAN state visits XJP was doing saying like, feh, the "Malays" don't have money and everyone here is like, hdu call Malay people broke!!
And I'm like:
- he meant all Malaysians because he's American and racist
- unfortunately have you guys checked in with our neighbours the Indonesians, we're all "Malay" to them too
- dang Jose Rizal was on to something about calling everyone Malays
MH370: The Devil Is In the Data
Could data gathered by amateur radio operators finally unlock the truth about the doomed Malaysia Airlines flight?

Things I'm picking up from Indonesian socmed: .... enough people shorten "Malaysia" to "Malay".... ....

Speaking of 2025 Raya songs, is this cover cursed? Yes. Am I still sharing it far and wide? YES.

One of the major hits in this year's Raya songs is Mimifly's Serumpun (which also has a dance portion with stylized Malaysian Sign Language) and one of the more enjoyable things I've seen are the various dance vids being performed to it (the title means "of the same root/source/group" and in her MV it was explicit with how she had other people showing up Nusantara/SEAsian native attire) from various Malaysians *AND* SEAns especially if you're in the aforementioned Nusantara grouping so I've seen videos from as far north as Cambodia. Anyway, this must be the fault of my algorithm because while I'm getting gorgeous Malaysian Indian dancers in full traditional attire why is the only properly choreographed non-nyonya non-baju Melayu videos from Malaysian Chinese is this Zumba video clearly from somewhere in my neighbourhood if the basketball court in the local park doesn't give it away... I guess at this point that's a cultural dress....
A former Malaysian Prime Minister is reported to have passed away today.
No, not the one you think.
Innalillah regardless.
The take-home point here is that somehow Kuala Lumpur somehow got the MCU blue "advanced economy" colour grading rather than the yellow "global south" one RIP to Nairobi that market scene will always be famous.

@cendawanita I am not sure what the point of this post is, but I want to share my perspective. Please do not blame specific ethnic groups solely, but rather the politicians and political parties that use ethnicity as justification to gain votes at the cost of the well-being of other ethnicities. Malaysia is not a country at war, and if you are Malaysian, please remember the five national principles. Everybody deserves to be respected without discrimination or harm.
So over the weekend in SEA/nusantara socmed it was a bit popping on my feed because of two unrelated things, but they're all revolving around southeast asia as the Balkans of Asia (iykyk) and in the middle of the well-deserved lashings being poured on Malaysian transphobes suddenly this Thai account was like, lol Malaysia is a neocolonial project to destabilize the region, and most people are like, 1) wtf does that make you; 1a) axis collaborator; 1a-ii) collaborated so hard you simped for Hirohito and Hitler.
Anyway, the point of all that is that I'm being reminded that in a lot (A LOT) of border territories in the maritime SEA, and no judgement, you will not find it strange to find Malaysian flags as part of the local separatist expressions 
whyyyy don't get us involved (it's related to sociocultural facts about what constituted the "Malay World") #tootSEA #malaysia

A Whiskered Tern (Chlidonias hybrida) spotted at Kuala Sepetang, Perak, Malaysia on 2 April 2025. Spotted several birds, but only managed to get one reasonable shot as they veered through the air.
