About UsRempah Ratus is the unofficial blog of the Political and Social Analysis (PSA) section at the Penang Institute.
Rempah Ratus means spices in the Malay world, and they come in a variety of colours, textures, and flavours. We aspire to bring forth a creative blend of "spices" in terms of ideas and discourse: spicy, diverse, and flavourful. |
