dont need to waste time la, baba nyonya from melaka and penang are mostly chinese DNA already, their ancestors married pure chinese bride from china last time during the 19th and 20th century, they have been sino-fied, thats why u see today's baba nyonya from penang and melaka look the same as pure chinese

the real peranakan chinese are those from kelantan/terengganu, those can still say they are different from pure chinese

he memang is peranakan, his wiki also got write there his family is peranakan

fun fact have u heard lee kuan yew spoke chinese before? haha
