Why it is unique?

Let me explain.. Serani is a mix breed between Portuguese Man with local women(Malays) during the 15th century.Why?

-Was encourage by the King of Portugal to marry local women
-To spread Christianity.

Later on when the shariah law was established in the 19th century they intend to marry chinese or indian rather than malay why?

-they dont want to alter their religion(Roman Catholic)

-well my best answer i can give through their sir names? like de costa, de silva, danker, goonting, cruz
-the way they speak...people brought up in the Portuguese Settlement have their own slang.
