1.0 Introduction

Food is one of the necessities that a person needs to live. The type of food that is prepared in a
certain place can tell the history, climate and the way of life, which is the culture of that place.
Therefore, for our performance, we will be going to explore the culture of Malaysia in the
direction of varieties of food.

2.0 Performance Objective

Culture is the way of life. The way we greet, behave, and speak are some examples of a
culture. Hence, the culture of a place serves as a reflection of the identity of a community. It
provides a belongingness to a community, and when a person feels that they are a part of the
community, they have the stability to grow and be nurtured. In Malaysia, we have many
different races, coming from different beliefs and thinking. However, the way that these
different races interact with each other is one of the visible demonstrations of culture. The
richness of varieties of food in Malaysia due to the different races is the objective that our
team wants to explore. Food can be an uniting factor that brings people together because we
have to eat to live. Therefore, understanding different cultures by their food and respecting
that culture is very important to us as part of the community of Malaysia.

often used as a means of retaining their cultural identity. People from different cultural
backgrounds eats different foods. In religion, food is one of the most important parts of
religious commandments, hence food is prepared in different ways. The meaning of food is an

Knowing the culture is influenced by food through various ways such as tradition, religion
and family. As the world becomes more globalised, it is easier to access cuisines from
different cultures.Thus, we embrace our heritage through our culture’s food but we should
also become more informed about other cultures by trying their foods. It’s important to
remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to
those who prepare it. Food is a portal into culture, and it should be treated as such.
