THE baju Melayu Teluk Belanga is growing in popularity among Malay men beyond Johor, attracting interest from those in other Malaysian states, Singapore and even parts of Indonesia, particularly the Riau Archipelago.
An expert in Johor traditional Malay attire, Shafie Ahmad attributed its popularity to Johor Ruler Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar and his son, Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Ibni Sultan Ibrahim.
