Lemang has been recorded as a popular delicacy since 1864. Usually, this dish is served with rendang or serunding. Glutinous rice, coconut milk, and a pinch of salt are used to make lemang. It will be roasted in bamboo segments lined with banana leaves until fully done. The indigenous inhabitants of Malaysia developed this way of cooking lemang with bamboo. The flavour of this fatty lemang is incredible.

THE INFORMATION ABOUT MALAYS RACES ON TRADITIONAL LANGUAGE.
The official language and national language of Malaysia is Bahasa Melayu Malaysia or Bahasa Melayu Standard, commonly known as Bahasa Malaysia (unofficial). It is based on the norms set by Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka in the form of Malay, which is standardised and utilised as the national language. Malay has an 80% cognitive similarity to Indonesian and is spoken by over 10 million people. Article 152 of Malaysia's Federal Constitution declares Malay to be the country's official language, stating, "The national language is Malay.Because Malaysia's national language was influenced by Indonesia, Tunku Abdul Rahman (the country's first Prime Minister) coined the phrase "Bahasa Malaysia" to refer to it during the country's independence. The word became popular after that. Tuanku Abdul Rahman (Yang di-Pertuan Agong Pertama) did not coin the phrase Bahasa Malaysia; it evolved spontaneously after the 13 May 1969 catastrophe. The press coverage at the time reflected this. There was some unanimity at the time on the term Bahasa Malaysia. The Malaysian Constitution, on the other hand, has remained unchanged.The name "Bahasa Malaysia" was changed to "Bahasa Melayu" in 1986. This amendment was done in compliance with Article 152 of Malaysia's Federal Constitution, which states: "The national language is Malay."The Malaysian Cabinet resolved on June 4, 2007, to change the use of "Bahasa Melayu" to "Bahasa Malaysia" in order to foster a sense of ethnic unity among the people (but to no avail). All ministries, universities, and institutions of higher learning have been asked by the Cabinet to inform relevant departments and agencies to use the phrase "Bahasa Malaysia" in communications, notices, and papers. However, the matter could not be enforced because Malaysia's constitution explicitly specifies that Malay, not Bahasa Malaysia, is the country's official language.

HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI (HARI RAYA PUASA)
HARI RAYA AIDILADHA
AWAL MUHARRAM/MAAL HIJRAH
SAMBUTAN MAULIDURASSUL
The historic day of Prophet Muhammad's birth is known as Maulidur Rasul (Arabic: birth of Rasul) or Maulud Nabi Muhammad SAW. Today is the 12th day of the month of Rabiulawal, which corresponds to 20 April 571, and coincides with the Prophet's birthday, which falls on Monday (according to a hadith related by Muslim on 8/25). Allah Subhanahuwataala sent him as the final prophet. Maulid Nabi, the site of his birth, today houses a modest building. Every year on that day, Muslims all over the world attend a ceremony to remember the birth of the Prophet Muhammad SAW, which includes parades, speeches, and other activities. Allah Subhanahu Wataala would bestow many benefits and privileges on people who can hold or attend the Maulidur Rasul event. We can see how beneficial it is for people to praise the Prophet Muhammad Sallallahualaihiwasallam's birth ceremony since even if they merely want to hold the Prophet's Maulud, it is already rewarded and honoured. Indeed, promising to do something nice is a prayer and a religious act. It is apparent to us that Allah Subhanahuwataala's vengeance for goodwill is so swift that Allah SWT will provide an invaluable retribution even when the heart is tickled to do good. When a believer is in distress, he remains calm and just complains to Allah, hoping for the help and affection of Allah Subhanahu Wataala. The blessing of performing the Maulud Ceremony extends not only to the person who does it, but also to all members of the household or those who dwell in the area.

BAJU RIAU
This divided shirt resembles a kebaya in length. The daughter of Raja Haji, the fifth Yang Dipertuan Muda of Riau from Bugis origin, Baju Riau is also known as 'Engku Puteri or Raja Hamidah.' Songket fabric is commonly used in traditional Malay clothing for males.
BAJU BELAH KEBAYA PANJANG
Although Johor women are known for their baju kurung, they also wore kebayas in the ceremony as a gift from the Johor-Riau government. The limbs are still 'enclosed' by this long-sleeved shirt pattern. The cut is traditionally long, reaching the ankles. The only difference is that it is divided and split in front of this shirt, which is typically worn as an outdoor dress or for formal occasions. Melaka, Perak, Selangor, and Kedah-Perlis are known for their long shirts. Later on, this baju kurung belah was dubbed 'baju panjang' and 'kebaya panjang.' This evolved into a kebaya with long sleeves tucked straight in front, a ruffled and split breast covered with buttons or three brooches [like to the one above
BAJU MELAYU
The phrase refers to the circular pattern on a shirt's neck, often known as a high'short' neck or an upright dam neck. The term 'fox claw' conjures up a natural image of a shirt's neck with a high claw standing (2.5cm) around it. A circle (round) produced with the other thumbs meeting the ends determines the size. During the reign of Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Sultan Abu Bakar, this shirt was initially worn in Johor.
BAJU KURUNG
The baju kurung is a fashionable garment worn by both men and women. The difference is in the number of pockets, with males having three and women having one, as well as the clothes. Parentheses have taken on the concept of 'enclosing or closing' limbs in an indirect way. This manner corresponds to the concept of Malay style clothing following Islam, till the name 'kurung' is defined as a comfortable and loose shirt, long or short. As a result, it is known by numerous names, such as 'baju kurung bernyawa.' Despite the various titles, baju kurung has its own distinct qualities.
