Chinese Lion Dance in Malaysia

Check out China's CGTN report on the Chinese lion dance in Malaysia. 

 

Originally from China, lion dance is an ancient art that has become deeply ingrained in Malaysia's multi-ethnic society. Lion dance troupes across Malaysia train tirelessly to perfect their skills, allowing them to thrill their audiences with their dazzling moves and performances. 

 

Malaysia is particularly well known for its acrobatic lion dance, and today more and more young Malaysians are getting curious to give it a try.

 

My post "Malaysia's Apex Court Strike Down 16 Provisions in Kelantan Syariah Criminal Enactment" published Sunday refers. 

 

The menteri besar of neighboring state, Terengganu, Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar says his government will examine all aspects of the state’s syariah criminal law to ensure it does not contradict federal law, as reported by FMT yesterday. 

 

[Note that Terengganu, like Kelantan, is governed by the opposition PAS].

 

A prudent move by the Chief Minister.
