Pendatang

Okay kiddo, so imagine you are in a big house with your family. Suddenly, some new people come to your house and want to live there. These new people are called pendatang in Malaysia.

Pendatang means someone who comes to a place where they were not born or raised, and they want to stay there for some time. They might come to Malaysia from other countries or from different parts of Malaysia itself.

Just like how you might feel excited or curious to meet new people in your house, Malaysians have different feelings about pendatang. Some people welcome them and treat them kindly, while others might feel worried or scared about the changes they bring to their community.

It's important to remember that everyone deserves to be treated with respect and kindness, no matter where they come from. So if you ever meet a pendatang in your community, try to be friendly and welcoming, just like you would want someone to do for you if you were in a new place.
