[PEOPLE] I'm Ceylonese, Not Indian.
Disclaimer: This is the personal story of Keshika as a Malaysian-Ceylonese. Each family may have differences in their traditional practices.
Keshika Ganendra, who touched my heart with phone calls and flower bouquets sent to my home the night my dear mother passed away, all while she was far away in India. I’ll always remember that. She is currently still in India, but we would always meet up at least once a year. I first met her in Basic Pharmacology class, and we instantly clicked. Her laugh is contagious. At first, I thought she was a Punjabi. Then, I found out, she is a Tamil. But, she is not Indian. How? Let’s get to know her heritage better in this article. *smiley emoji*
A Ceylonese is a person who is a native, inhabitant of Sri Lanka and their descendants.
There are two major ethnic groups which are the Sinhalese and the Tamils. Keshika is a third-generation Malaysian of Sri Lankan Tamil/Ceylon-Tamil descent. She was born in Subang Jaya. Her family of five lived in Petaling Jaya and Puchong, then moved back to Subang Jaya during her adolescent years, till this date. Both of her parents and grandparents were born and bred Malaysian-Ceylonese. Except for her paternal grandfather, who was born in Sri Lanka, and migrated to Malaya when he was young. When asked what languages she is fluent in, she answered,
“I speak English at home and some Malay. Not as fluent, but I can also speak a little bit of Tamil and Hindi. Though Tamil is a common language between the Indians and the Ceylonese, certain words, pronunciation and accents are different.”
Digging deeper into the family history, Keshika’s maternal great-grandfather was one of the first Ceylonese in Malaysia to obtain an ACCA title and he then proceeded to have his accounting firm in Brickfields. He was also the co-founder of the Sri Kandaswamy temple, located at Jalan Scott, Brickfields. He was a prominent figure in the Ceylonese society, loved by all and known for his charity work. Her paternal great-grandfather was a Financial Assistant (FA) under the government of Malaya. Adding to that, her paternal granduncle who was a doctor, served as a private GP for the Sultan of Kelantan back then.
Talking about the Ceylonese Communities in Malaysia, generally, they are concentrated mainly in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. According to Keshika,
“Initially most Ceylonese settled down in Taman Yarl, Taman Kanagapuram, Brickfields, Petaling Jaya, Bangsar and Seremban. The majority of them settled in the KL region as they were mostly brought over from Sri Lanka to work as government office servants. Fun fact, Taman Yarl is named after a place in Sri Lanka, Yarlpanam.”
Her favourite Ceylonese dishes are Sweet Appam, Uthappam, and string hoppers(putu mayam or idiyappam) with Sothi and Kool(broth made with seafood, mainly crabs). However, being a true Malaysian, her favourite dish will always be Nasi Lemak! When it comes to festivities, the Ceylonese Tamils celebrated the same festivals as The Indian Tamils, such as Deepavali, Ponggal, Tamil New Year, Thaipusam and more. Yet, the traditions practised are different.
How different or similar is the Ceylonese Culture from Indian Culture? We will focus on three aspects to compare.
First, in terms of wedding rituals, most festivities take place in the bride's house.
Whereas in Indian households, the celebrations mostly take place in the groom's house. Sri Lankan brides usually wear a saree with a veil that covers the face, whereas Indian brides do not as the veil is not part of their culture. The sacred thread ’thaali’ which the groom ties around the neck of the bride is an actual yellow thread in Indian culture where three knots are tied, whereas for Ceylonese the thaali is a gold chain with a screw that is screwed around the neck. Also, there is a pre-wedding Ceylonese ceremony called ‘ponurukku’ which loosely translates to ‘melting of gold’ ceremony which is not part of the Indian culture. In addition, back when the concept of dowry was practised, in the Indian culture the bride's father/family presented the groom/groom's family with whatever dowry is agreed upon, differing from Ceylonese culture whereby the dowry given by the bride's father/family goes to the bride itself. For example, if the dowry is a house, the house would be under the bride's name not the groom's.
Second, pregnancy rituals whereby first-time Indian mothers have a bangle ceremony which is done on the 8th month of pregnancy.
This is meant to be a blessing for the mother and child, in opposition to Ceylonese culture where we do not hold the said ceremony.
Third, the food.
Although the Tamils have similar food they do not always eat it the same way. For example string hoppers, Ceylonese people usually pair it with a yellow curry called Sothi. Whereby Indians usually like to have it with brown sugar, the way most Malaysians are familiar with it. Remember when we were young, uncle on a bike would go around the neighbourhood, honk a few times and yell “Putu Mayaaaam..” *laughing emoji*
I’m going to be side-tracked and stereotypical a bit here.
To be honest, often in Malaysia, the Javanese, Bugis, Minangese, and Melayu Pattani would just label themselves as Malay as a race, then when people ask further only they introduce their designated ethnicity, if they are aware of it. Unless, they are proud of their ethnicity and grew up in a specific area concentrated with that particular ethnicity, like Bugis in Pontian or Javanese in Muar. In the cities, even among us Malays, we cannot differentiate them at a glance. But for sure, other races would just perceive us as the Malays.
And we usually grouped Tamils, Telegus, and Punjabis as Indians. Although, we do know Punjabi are different. And Indian Muslims, no matter where their ancestors were from, we call them mamak. Many older generations might get offended when we say that, cos they were Pakistani or not from southern regions of India.
Back to Keshika.
Growing up as a Ceylonese Tamil in Malaysia, having to tick the ‘lain-lain’ box on every form starting from the mere age of 7 did make Keshika feel like a bit of an outsider, especially without fully being able to grasp the concept of race and why am I ‘lain’ from my friends at that age. However, it did get better and less confusing over the years.
From the public perspective, the non-Indians usually will assume her to be an Indian and the majority of Indians think I'm Punjabi based on looks or features. In terms of speech, when conversing in Tamil, most Indians can differentiate almost immediately because of the difference in accent.
Today, as an adult, Keshika does see the importance of heritage and history and understands the insistence from her ancestors not to give in to pressure and be assimilated as Indians. Because her ancestors were never from India, they are from an island in South Asia called, Sri Lanka. The more she explores her culture and background the more connected she feels to her ancestors, realising the sacrifices they made and how much they contributed to building this country and nation. She commented, “I feel proud, despite still being ‘lain-lain’ I am truly Malaysian and a single checked box on a piece of form is not going to make me feel otherwise.”
My dear homies, Keshika Ganendra has a few words to share with our fellow Malaysians.
“Dear Malaysians, we are all of different races, ethnicities, religious backgrounds and ultimately from different places but our ancestors came together to build this nation and we are here together presently on this beautiful land called Malaysia. Our differences ARE our uniqueness and strength in this big wide world. There can never be another Malaysia. So cherish one another and always stick together, we are ONE as a nation.”

2/4/2023 - Lunch
CO CHUNG
🥖Meatball Banh Mi ($10.96)
A very light banh mi with super soft meatball. While it's pretty good, the preferred banh mi is still at AMK
🐖🦀🍜 Bun Rieu ($12.50)
Strong crab taste in the meatball. Yumsss. Very homey type of soup, kind of tastes like prawn mee
🍽 Banh Hoi Dac Biet ($22.96)
A mixed platter of vermicelli with grilled meats. My favs were the meatball with lemongrass and the succulent grilled pork. The vermicelli is pretty similar to Putu Mayam. Comes with sweet and salty fish sauce
☕️ Ca Phe Trung Lanh ($8.96)
Creamy egg whipped into coffee. The foam was really super creamy but a little bit too much? Couldn't really get a good sip of the coffee. Makes a good dessert (:
Service here is fast and snappy

29 October 2020. Dapat 1 job hantar barang dari bangsar ke bandar kinrara puchong. Dalam perjalanan, hujan lebat. Berhenti kat satu petronas taman medan ni. Dengan baju hujan tak standby, habis lencun semuanya. Dalam kesejukan, tiba tiba perut berbunyi, tgk jam nak dekat pukul 3. Teringat masa keluar rumah tadi, sempat jamah nasi goreng sikit kat rumah. Tiba-tiba ada satu kereta berhenti dekat dengan aku, keluar sorang brader dari kereta, beri satu bungkusan warna coklat, siap garpu sudu dan sebotol mineral dekat sorang pakcik india yang jual putu mayam ni. Kemudian, dia hulur juga dekat aku, katanya "nasi bang" alhamdulillah, memang tengah lapar masa tu. Then dia beri pada semua driver grab yang berteduh dekat situ. Aku perhati je brader ni. Dalam masa yang sama, terlintas difikiran. Dia memberi saat orang susah, kesejukan kena hujan. Kebetulan, harini 12 Rabiul awal. Sempena dengan kelahiran Baginda s.a.w. Mudahnya nak buat kebaikan. Kita hidup atas Redha Allah dan Syafaat Rasulullah s.a.w dia memberi, dan orang mendoakan dia di saat salah satu waktu mustajab doa, iaitu ketika waktu hujan. Subhanallah. Semoga kita belajar sesuatu dari setiap kebaikan yang datang. Selawat luhhhh, Allahhumma Solli Ala Saidina Muhammad. 😘 #grabdriver #grabfood #grabmalaysia #grabfoodmy #alhamdulillah #abuhanifah #dakwahituseni #harinidahingatmati #muhasabah #muhasabahdiri #muhasabahbersama (at Bandar Kinrara) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG67iDAMK4R/?igshid=1wi5sqvs4o9li

I dont know if I'd already told this story before i dont think i have. I felt like sharing this today
Right, so, there's this mobile grocery truck that goes around town (im not sure how far he wanders, but apparently a big enough space cause a lot of people have personal experience with it.) and theres nothing too weird about it EXCEPT that, not unlike all mobile grocery trucks it announces the kind if thing it provides/sells and for a very long period in my childhood no one could determine what it says...it could either be
a)Putu mayam (apparently a type of indian dish)
b)Potong ayam ("cut chicken", or more accurately "we cut chicken" which, okay, fair)
c) Potong Mayat ("WE CUT DEAD BODIES")
Apparently a fair amount of people THOUGHT they heard option c, WHICH WAS A WEIRD THING TO ANNOUNCE TO A NEIGHBOURHOOD IN A NONDESCRIPT WHITE VAN. You understand how the kids reacted. A bunch if adults find it funny, but i personally have never come close to this van.
I just thought this would b cool to yall story lubbers. Go crazy🙋
