We have in my neighborhood, the buddhist wat siam, baptist church, a hindu temple and a tahfiz school on the same stretch of road going to old tekah airport in a stretch of 500meters of jalan lapangan terbang, assam kumbang.
We have old saints,convent,treacher methodist,st georges and king edward school. Even today hardly anyone wear hijjabs there. We are not big on arabism of islam.
Our favorite restaurant are yut sun that sells mee hailam and kedai bismillah muslim restaurant,each more than 100 yrs old. The taiping new club restaurant serves old english foodies.
The lake gardens and maxwell hills are a legacy of the british since 1876 and so is the golf course, museums and prison.
The correct Malay proverb is "biar mati anak, jangan mati adat". Hunter has a long way to go take make sense of Malay culture, a not so dissimilar situation that foreign analysts such as Sophie Lemiere and many more suffer from. But pls try harder.

What is it like in Sarawak? Are the Malays there living in a different culture?
Yes, during my stay in Sarawak for a short 3 year.
I noticed that the Malay, Indian, and some other minority bumiputra actually spoke Hokkien, Chinese, and multiple other local language.
It's very strange for me to return to Malaya and see racism during my school year.
if you're interesting in seeing it for yourself you can always travel to Sarawak/Sabah.
