Malaysian Heritage and History Club is a Facebook group with over fifty-thousand members for discussion of Malaysian history and culture.
Background
[edit]The Malaysian Heritage and History Club's Facebook group was created in October 2012 by Bert Tan. In September 2015, the Club hosted a "People's Merdeka" heritage festival which included talks on the history of Kelantan state and the Peranakan community.[1]
The club was acknowledged in Rosalie and Other Love Songs, which noted that the club has "irreverent but erudite members."[2]
On May 13, 2016, the club was used to commemorate the anniversary of the Sino-Malay violence during the 13 May Incident of 1969.[3]
