      That is not true. Rendang origin was from Malaka Malaysia. One of the sheikh from Melaka during Malaka Sultanate introduced it to the Minangkabau tribe in Sumatra

    The other reason why traditional Malay houses are on stilts is that originally you might have wild animals living in the forest around you so you want to make sure that your house is not easily accessible by animals by making them on higher ground. The elevated position of the house would also help with air flow as the breeze can travel through the house with little obstructions.

  • @syafiqahmad987
    @syafiqahmad987 Год назад +10

    18:19 absolutely correct Saiful, main reason is flooding and rain. But the other reason is some of the old traditional houses can be moved by lifting it up. All villagers come to help move it ❤

  • @airadium
    @airadium Год назад +6

    Steve is correct, house on stilts because of wetness/water stream formation during raining season.

  • @chekenolchannel9692
    @chekenolchannel9692 Год назад +6

    Traditional houses on stilt due to:
    - flooding
    - wild animal like wild boar, tigers, crocodile
    - and airflow for natural cooling / ventilation (air flow from bottom, through & on top. ❤

    My advice, hold your judgement until you try nasi lemak kak chuk, and nasi lemak Tanglin.
    Edit: at least they're the most famous in KL(also village park, but you guys have tried that before). You haven't tried the most famous in each state and hundreds of other varieties. Every nasi lemak place you encounter have their own recipes, basically it's trial and error until you find your favourite ones. It's not easy to become the national dish of Malaysia when you have the malay, chinese, indian (chinese and indian food here are quite different from the respective mainland because they're basically Malaysian style) also you have quite a varieties of food from the sabah and sarawak. I'm an ethnic indian in malaysia but if you ask me I'm always Malaysian first, indian next lol. I felt so awkard when i visited the land of my forefathers which is Tamilnadu.

  • @azarimy
    @azarimy Год назад +3

    About the houses on stilts, yes, the original purpose was to avoid flood. You'll notice in some states, the stilts are shorter (less flood prone areas), and others are up to 7-8 feet tall (bad floods). The other reason is to avoid wild animals that roams at night, including snakes, wildboars and so on.
    During the day, the areas beneath house is used for activities because of the shade. Traditionally Malays are farmers and gatherers, and they do this in the early morning. In the afternoon, they chill underneath the house. Nowadays, these areas are also used as a garage.
    So all your assumptions are correct!

    Taste is subjective but I find a lot of versions of nasi lemak available has different attributes. I personally enjoy the diversity in nasi lemak styles in Malaysia. Wanjo is great it’s tasty, the restaurant is efficient and variety of side dishes, for those who prefer less spicy (in fact sweet) sambal, Wanjo is great. Village park nasi lemak takes a pranakan twist to their nasi lemak game, with great fried chicken and sweet styled sambal. Nasi lemak burung hantu is the latest great nasi lemak spot, I’d recommend it to you for the spicy sambal (great kick in it), basmati fragrant coconut rice and great side dishes.

    Yes...prevention from flood water , back then also from wild animals.
    Yes true Ivana, 'bawah rumah' or the space beneath the house function as Storage, Garage and rest area
    For male guests, they can sit there without going into the house where the ladies are.
    It is actually more prctical to hve our houses on stilts in this climate and landscape
    But modernism and technology have changed everything.
    Now, everyone suffers tremendously when theres flood because all houses are on ground.
