correct me if i'm wrong if this is not a dance:

Oh, I just can't get enough of the beautiful Apsara dance That's from the event for the Korean officials, right?

Republic of Indonesia


Giring-giring dance from Indonesian Island of Kalimantan


Bedhaya Ketawang, sacred dance of Javanese court, only danced in special occasions by a group of chosen dancers


Pendet, temple dance from Bali.

^^^yeah, it's from the angkor-gyeongju world cultural expo.

the giring-giring dance costume reminds me of native americans bc of the feather-like head gear.
bali seems similar to khmer, thai, and laos.

you guys are trying to dance like Indians

What are you trying to say Chinese boy? India is part of the Lao, Khmer, and Thai cultural heritage. Just because our culture is NOT Sino-ized like the Vietnamese, Korean, and Japanese doesn't make it less Asian.

ignorance & facism are the hallmarks of ur kind.

ehh??? i wasnt trying to be offend anything. Indian are great dancers, maybe better than blacks.
im just saying we need to be on some brand new shix...you know what im sayn'

menikani, that was beautiful! thanx for sharing.

wow... soo many pretty pixs!!!! hehe soo many to look at

This dance is really beautiful

Aww...so sweet! It's a beautiful sign of friendship!
BTW, the "male" dancer is really a female, huh? That's why she is not bare-chested as it supposed to be

why malaysian dance pics so few?

Why don't you contribute Malaysian dances pics.....

@ Bhas, yes the male role is played by a woman, so she wouldn't go bare chested wouldn't she.....

Yeah, kelantanese. Contribution, pls!!

@majjy: I think she lacked the commitment. If she's really serious about learning the male part of a Javanese dance, she gotta be bare-chested!!

i already search for it, but its really hard to get it from the net, maybe if i find any pics in the magazine i'll scan n upload here...
