MELAKA: The inclusion of the Peranakan Chinese language glossary into the Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka's dictionary is a step forward to recognise the contribution of the community towards the advancement of Bahasa Melayu , says Datuk Ronald Gan .
"The glossary developed jointly by my association and DBP is a significant step in preserving the Peranakan Chinese language, which has made an invaluable contribution to the evolution of Bahasa Melayu since the Melaka Sultanate era," he said after Bernama Chairman Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai closed the Peranakan Chinese Festival 2024 at a leading shopping complex here on Sunday .
"The community is proud that it has played an important part in shaping Bahasa Melayu, where we have over 1,000 words and a rich vocabulary, some of which have been adapted into the national language," he said. Meanwhile, Gan also hopes the stakeholders in Putrajaya expedite their request for the community to be recognised as a sub-ethnic group by the National Registration Department.
