The Bugis-Malay or Buginese-Malay also known as Peranakan Bugis, are a cultural and ethnic group with heritage rooted in both Malays and Bugis/Buginese communities, typically comprising individuals of mixed Malay and South Sulawesi ancestry. This group descends from multiple waves of migration from South Sulawesi, particularly to Johor and Riau Archipelago, as well as Selangor, Singapore and other areas, between the 17th and early 20th centuries. These migrations, which took place from the 17th to the early 20th centuries, led to the establishment of significant Bugis communities in regions such as Johor, Riau, Selangor and Singapore. Over time, the Bugis integrated into local Malay societies, contributing to the region's political, economic and cultural development. The migrations represent a significant historical movement of peoples from Sulawesi, Indonesia, to various regions across Southeast Asia spanning from the 17th to the 20th centuries. These migrations were driven by a combination of economic, political and cultural factors and played a crucial role in shaping the demographics and cultural landscapes of the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra and Borneo. The Bugis-Malays are descendants of various waves of migration from Sulawesi to the Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, and western Borneo. This movement began in the 17th century and continued through the 20th century. It is part of a broader pattern of Bugis migration across the region, which led to the establishment of significant Bugis diaspora communities in Southeast Kalimantan, Kutai, Java, Lombok, Aceh and Bali. In some locations, such as Pagatan in South Kalimantan, the Bugis established a distinct diaspora identity, while in other areas, including Batavia (now Jakarta), Central Java, and Siam (now Thailand), their descendants assimilated into the larger local communities.
