If you ever visited a Chinatown enclave in major cities around the world you would not miss the distinctive mark that the Chinese traders of the last century have left for all to see. Manaweblife was fortunate enough to discover these in Muar recently . Take a look at this video and you will see what it is all about. The trader's Chinatown enclaves are filled with interesting old pillars that are actually shop signages with Chinese characters. Some are done as embossed out to give a unique 3D look and most are mostly painted red .These are the heritage that the early Chinese traders left for us to behold.
Muar was a major railway town that linked Kuala Lumpur and Singapore . Over a century have passed but old colonial and Chinese styled buildings and structures still stand strong like a living museum in Muar.
Recently , some town councils wanted to ban these Chinese signages and use Bahasa Malaysia signages instead. Luckily , this was stopped. Indeed , these signages have been here long before independence and it is a heritage unique to many Chinatowns not just in Malaysia but around the world. If you happen to see any such signages take a closer look, snap a picture or video for keeps.
Manaweblife is glad that these heritage will be preserved as a reminder of our colourful history and add another dimension to our multi-racial identity.
