Ulek Mayang: Lagu "Berhantu" Or Just A Myth? 🤔

Did you know Malaysia ada its own folktale that is ala ala The Little Mermaid? 👀

Sea princesses? ✅
Youngest sea princess falls in love with a human? ✅✅

Yup, we’re talking about Ulek Mayang, the song and performance that many claim to be “berhantu”… but is it really? 🤔

We were super curious so we got in touch with the original singer & lead dancer of Ulek Mayang, Puan Wan Salmah and Encik Hosni, a former Ulek Mayang performer AND the original composer's nephew to know more about this mysterious Terengganu art form.

Menarik sangattttt!
