its only in kelantan.. the origin.. yes like 'wayang kulit/main peteri'.. a lot of hinduism... but we do it as a play.. should be no problem.. the other one is 'Menora'.. totally gone already..

saya harap kelantan pelihara mak yong ni.. jadi macam dikir barat.. orang luar ambik tiru buat persembahan.. kononnya dikir barat.. tapi ROSAK!!! hancur.. rima/lagu/tema/dan loghat semua HANCUR!!! mungkin kena terbit buku guide lines.. lama kelamaan orang akan mula terima dikir barat asimilasi orang luar kelantan ni.. same goes to mak yong..menora.. bagih main peteri and etc..

Makyong is a dance used to entertain female royalty such as queens or princesses while their husband was away...

amazing.. was this heavily influenced by Hinduism?was that why it was banned in some states in MAlaysia?let me get this straight.. mak yong is a dance? or a play?
