The narrative of Malay identity devised by Malay nationals, writers and film makers in the late colonial period associated Malayness with the village or kampung, envisaged as static, ethnically homogenous, rural, etc. This book challenges the kampung version of Malayness, arguing that it ignores a vast swathe of the country’s population.
