"When I go to India ... they tell me - you have an Indian name, are you one of us? You belong to us. What a beautiful thing to say to someone who has not been back since the 15th Century! I want us to say the same thing. Are you Peranakan? You belong to us. Are you Singaporean? You belong to us."

Being Peranakan means ".... being a cultural hybrid drawing from and identifying with different racial groups."
