Entry 3: 1st Individual Presentation
안녕! (That is ‘Annyeong’ which means hi in Korean). Ooooookay so I did my presentation this morning. I talked about Adat Perpatih, as what I mention before. Guess what? As soon as it’s my turn to present, most of them thought I’ll be talking about Korea already -.- okay. So they were totally wrong ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ~~
I am glad enough that I chose this as my topic, because Madam Fariza seems curious about it too, and also most of my classmates. I told you, people are so stereotype about this culture. Well, most of Malaysian’s mentality are like that, stereotyping this culture when they does not know most of the facts. Therefore let me take this chance to clear my classmates thought about Adat Perpatih.
I started with telling the fact that I myself was born in Adat Perpatih bloodline, and that we are still holding up to that culture. Of course, not 100% are still being preserve until now, but in daily life or some strict rules, yes we still hold up to it. I continued with stating the fact about marriage between men and women from the same culture, the same bloodline, what happen if there’s divorcement between men and women, either from Adat Perpatih or not.
What people thinks about Adat Perpatih was, anyone who marry to a girl born in Adat Perpatih, if they divorced one day in the future, the whole wealth from the men will belong to the women. Okay that part is true, but not true enough. There’s a missing part in that statement that makes people have been stereotyping Adat Perpatih all this while. IF a men who was born in Adat Perpatih, marries a women from Adat Perpatih, one day IF they divorce, then the men’s wealth will belong to the women. If the men is born in Adat Temenggung, then there is nothing for them to be afraid of since that rule does not applies to them.
That was the argument part in my topic. Whether the wealth will change to the women side if they divorce. Great argument, which have been haunting the mind and mentality of most Malaysians. I am so happy that I get the chance to be confidence enough to talk in front of my classmate, on top of that I got to clear their misunderstandings about my culture. Madam Fariza also seems satisfied and she said that it is good to go back to your root, knowing where and what you are, knowing yourself. Thanks to this assignment that I got to do such things. I am anticipating our next assignment already, it’s fascinating.

Love, Bell 슈아.
