Rojak Projek highlights ‘Dan Lain-Lain’

Ambitious project: Lim (right) and volunteer Mercy Yap with the list of ethnicities in Malaysia and portraits of Malaysians.

PETALING JAYA: Malay, Chinese, Indian. These are the ethnicities that are commonly named in Malaysia while the rest are classified as “Dan Lain-Lain”. Very rarely would Malaysians themselves know about all the rich, diverse cultures that come under the “Dan Lain-Lain” category.

The Rojak Nation project is trying to change all that.
