Beloved songs such as Gelang Sipaku Gelang are featured in the book, with illustrations to spark the imagination.
Three-year-old Hugo Huang has never lived in Malaysia but he can sing Malay folk songs like Burung Kakak Tua and Rasa Sayang. His mother, Lok Lee Jiun, sang these songs growing up in Penang and she wanted to share that heritage with Hugo who lives in Taipei.
Unlike most mothers who would have just sung those songs to their children and hoped they’d be hooked to the catchy tunes, Lok curated a song book of her favourite Malay children’s tunes for him because she wants to pass on the tradition to him. With Lok’s Rasa Sayang: Sing-and-Record Fun Book, other children will also get to know and learn these beloved songs.
The seven songs in her book are Rasa Sayang, Chan Mali Chan, Burung Kakak Tua, Lenggang Kangkung and Gelang Sipaku Gelang, Anak Itik Tok Wi and Bengawan Solo. Lok included the latter two because they are her favourites.
Living abroad – in Singapore, then Hong Kong and now Taiwan – has given 38-year-old Lok new perspectives and a deeper appreciation of so much of Malaysia that she’d taken for granted.
“You never realise how Malaysian you are till you live abroad,” says Lok who received many song books for Hugo in English, Chinese and Japanese. But she couldn’t find a song book in Bahasa Malaysia to teach Hugo her childhood tunes.
So, Lok set out to create a song book featuring folk songs she wants to introduce to Hugo. A song book is a medium she believes in, especially in today’s highly digitalised environment.
“A song book is perfect for children because it engages them with sound as it plays music. I also thought it’d be awesome if it comes with a recording mode so a child can record himself singing the songs,” says Lok who embarked on the project determined to present her favourite folk songs in the most engaging ways.
