Collecting links and snapshots of lives across Southeast Asia and maybe a little further. Owned by a Malaysian who is inviting others to contribute to a hopefully representative view of the Southeast Asian fediverse. We track fedi-specific hashtags for our microblog as general country magazines exist or are upcoming (eg Philippines channel on Lemmy; and @Malaysia@kbin.social here).

it irks me when people try to assign musical genres to one community only, and this is certainly often happens when it comes to reggae and its musical offsprings > music is a universal language, so let's give credit!
one more example is garage music from uk: jason chue, himself one the most influential garage producers, is of chinese ancestry, too
chinese diaspora influence on the development of reggae music is indisputable > there are quite a few great articles on this, e.g.

i would like to add that the success of both dancehall and dubstep was driven by records labels run by chinese, too
