Dear members

The 01/2021 Issue of THE PERANAKAN magazine is on its way in the mail to you. This is a special issue themed on Acculturation, on how assimilating and adapting from other cultures have resulted in the wonderful hybrid culture of the nyonyas and the babas. From cover to cover, it is content-rich with contributions from many writers and it is beautifully designed with impactful visuals. Among the highlights are two new sections. One is called Tell Us Your Story, where members can write on topics close to their hearts. The other is a visual spread called Amek Gambair, showing prized heirloom pictures representing outstanding remnants of the past.

This issue will also double up as a programme for guests of The virtual Peranakan Dinner 2021 that will take place on 25 September. Look out for this issue in your mailbox or read now at https://www.peranakan.org.sg/2021/09/issue-1-2021/
