THE MAMAK INDIAN MUSLIMS

Ancestry Who is Indian Muslim? But most of them came from Southern Part

of India which is Tamil Nadu.

Migration to Malaysia Most of the Migration occurred in the

period of British of Colonization. Prior to this, Indians have been present in

the Malayan archipelago at least since the period of the influential Indian Chola dynasty of the 11th century.

Today, they form the third largest ethnic group in Malaysia after the Chinese and the Malays

The Straits Settlements from 1786 to 1824 started a steady inflow of Indian labor.

This consisted of traders, policemen, plantation labourers and colonial soldiers .

Apart from this there was also substantial migration of Indians to work in the British colonial government, due to their general good command of the English language.

Classification Of Mamak 4 types

1. Mamaks who have inter married with Malays for generations and have actually become Malays.

2. not inter married with Malays but who have assimilated closely into the Malay culture.3. mamaks who are still very much Tamil and who

can only speak pasar Malay despite being born in Malaysia. They may not have links with India but they watch Tamil movies and do not read the Malay papers or know much about the Malays.

They can only speak Malay and have cut off almost all their links with India.Penang, Kedah, Melaka

4. Despite being born in Malaysia they still would not know a 'kuihtalam' from an 'otak-otak'. They will not know 'nasilemak' from a hole in the ground. They will have strong family ties to India. They watch Tamil movies and know more about Tamil Nadu politics than Malaysia politics. They read Tamil Nesan and Malaysian Nanban religiously every day to find out what is happening in Tamil Nadu and India.

Statistics of Malaysian Indian according to profession

Indians constitute 15.5 percent of professionals in the country. This includes

doctors (28.4%), lawyers (26.8%), dentists (21%), veterinary surgeons (28.5%), engineers (6.4%), accountants (5.8%), surveyors (3.0%) and architects (1.5%).

Mamak in Malay Society They always went back to India to get

married. After 1970 the trend disappeared in a

hurry. The Malays refused to give Entry Permits

for mamak brides and grooms from India. All of a sudden mamaks realized that

they were short of wives and husbands. Hence the rate of inter marriage between mamaks and Malays increased tremendously after 1970.

. After 38 years of the NEP, the mamaks are even more assimilated now through marriage than ever before.

Today there is rarely a mamak family which does not have a Malay son or daughter in law.
