Malaysia is a land that are full of races that live happily in this growing nation. Because of this country have many races that live well togather, there are so many cultural views.
Some of the famous cultural taboo's that I used to heard is do not sew when it is already night. The rational of it is you may get hurt when you sew at night. Imagine that you are sleepy, than the light are not as bright as when it is daylight.
Other than that is do not sit on a pillow. They said that you may get some kind of acne on your buttock. But the true reason is far from what they meant. This is because you may fart on the pillow while sitting on it. Soon you will be the one who have problem to sleeps. hahahahahaa.
There is also a taboo's about opening an umbrella inside a house. The elders said that there will be a snake enters the house if someone opens an umbrella inside the house. But the truth is when someone open an umbrella inside a house, it will totally crowded a space. So it is hard for someone to move around when an umbrella are widely open. Other problem like you may poke someone in the eyes also could happen.
There is also taboo's that are refers to young ladies, that have not got married yet. Young ladies are prohibited to sing while cooking because elder said that their couple or bride would came late. Meaning that the lady will get married while already aged. But the truth behind the prohibition is that the elder do not want the food that been cooked by the lady will rotten faster because maybe her saliva have enters her cooking.
