7. About Us

Published by admin

This website owes its beginnings to the Toyota Foundation’s Asian Neighbors Network Program with its key theme, “Ties between People Will Unlock Asia’s Potential”. It funds projects such as this one which has a similar objective and focus, namely, “the formation of trans-regional networks that fuse different disciplines, and serve as venues for connection and interaction among people in

Asia…and collaboration that are not bound by existing systems and institutions…”

 

The Toyota Foundation’s support is gratefully acknowledged, providing the seed finance for this website, which we hope will be able to continue to be a forum for interaction and the sharing of common experiences towards developing new ways of thinking about the Peranakan identity.

    Hi, I am trying to trace back my family tree. My late grandparents were Peranakans. All I know is they were both born in Penang. My grand father was a British subject while my grandmother had both British and Malaysian nationalities.
    I will be in Penang in November.Can anyone tell me if there are any records or resources in Penang that I can refer to in my search . Thanks.
    My email address is tsunami1891@hotmail.com and my contact number is 353 086 3545047.
