Given our proximity and shared history, there have been several arguments between Malaysia and Singapore about the origin of popular dishes and cultures in
both our countries, one of which being the Chinese New Year tradition of Yee Sang.
In the podcast hosted by former Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin and ex-Umno Info Chief Shahril Hamdan, the former asked Loke about the claims that his grandfather invented Yee Sang after the Transport Minister shared how his family operated a restaurant when he was little.“I can’t concretely say that it’s true or false, as many people are disputing the history of who invented the dish. However, my grandfather did indeed bring this culture to Seremban.
He added that there’s no Yee Sang culture in China, only Malaysia, which his grandfather popularised.
