1 Dr. Claudine Lombard-Salmon is the first person to do a systematic library research on Straits Chinese literature. Her original work in French, “La Litterature en Malais Romanise des Chinois de Malaisie, Premiere Enquete”, Archipel 14 (1977): 79–109CrossRefGoogle Scholar, has been translated into English and Malay. See “Writings in Romanised Malay by the Chinese of Malaya: A Preliminary Inquiry”, Papers on Chinese Studies, vol. 1 (1977): 69–95Google Scholar, translated by Anne Destenay. See also “Kesusasteraan Melayu Rumi Orang-Orang Cina di Malaysia: Satu Kajian Awal”, Dewan Bahasa 22 (72) (1978): 899–921Google Scholar, translated by Drs. Abdul Rahman Al-Ahmadi. During my research among the Baba in Malacca, I came across many copies of Straits Chinese books. Some of my findings are presented in “Baba Chinese Publication in Romanized Malay”, Journal of Asian and African Studies, no. 22, 1981 (forthcoming)Google Scholar.

8 The topic for the essay competition this year is about the contribution of Confucian philosophy to Chinese culture. See Sin Chew Jit Poh Malaysia (Xingzhou Ribao), 17 July 1981, p. 5.
9 Deijiao Hui is a Chinese religious sect which worships Laozi, Buddha, Confucius, all kinds of Chinese deities as well as Prophet Mohammad and Jesus Christ. It started as a nativistic movement in China. I am currently doing research on Chinese religion and am at present focusing my attention on Deijiao Hui. However, I have not yet carried out any in-depth study of Confucian societies in Malaysia and Singapore. From the little bit of published material available, we know that in the first part of the twentieth century, there were people who tried to turn Confucian teachings into a religion. This is especially so in Indonesia, see fn. 7.
