One in a million part 2

As salam and Hi

Continue from previous one in a million.

The Daughter

Today I am going to talk about the daughter. She grown up in the western world, if I did not mention before. But she is more Malay except for her skin color that follow the father.

LOVE Malay foods
She loves to eat rice, lempeng pisang (banana pancake), Sardine, capati and of course she eats western food too.  She can cook and her cooking is not bad, may be not as good as her mother but the foods she cooks are nice. Not only does she knows how to make western food she too good with Malay cookies such as curry puff and she can do the side so beautiful

FLATTING

Living away from home (flatting) is common for western children after the age of 18 and she wants to do so but with her Malay mother behind her, she forgets the ideas.  The mother did not stop her from moving out but if she wants to do so she must be totally responsible and independence. No stuff to be taken from home, no laundary over the weekend, no monetaty support, nothing. If she can handle all that, she can stay out. So she stay with her parents

Of course living at home comes with responsibilities.  Office works during week days and house work (vacuuming, dusting, washing toilet, laundary, etc, etc) during week end. It is her chores.  All these are done without being asked.

As I mentioned before she speak good Malay, she is proud to wear Malay dressing.

DRESSING
With regards to dressing, no revealing dress to be worn at home or at work. She uses Malay costume such as baju kurung. She wore it that during her convocation. She too wear skirt made of batik.  She too can sew beleive it or not

TALKING
She talks and discusses with her parents about works, what what happend at work on regular basis. When discussions take place in a family, she cannot just jumps in to say, she has to put up her hands before she can be allowed to talk.
The moral of the story, it is all up to the Malay parent (be it father or mother) who can esnure the Malay are runs and stays in the blood.

That is for now. Of course I have not finished yet. In part three I will talk about the Mother, the wife, and the Woman who is the ONE in a MILLION.  Meantimen, enjoy reading and give comment.
