The Malay peoples of Southeast Asia are one of the 15 “Affinity Blocs” according to the Joshua Project. Patrick Johnstone, the author of “Operation World,” defines an affinity bloc as, “A large grouping of peoples related by language, history, and culture, and usually indigenous to a geographical area.” This definition fits the Malay peoples perfectly.

Almost all of the Malay peoples live in Malaysia and Indonesia, but a small number of them also live in other parts of Southeast Asia. All of the Malay peoples you will pray for this month are, in fact, related by language, history and culture.

But the Malay peoples are also related by the Islamic religion. “To be Malay is to be Muslim” is a true saying in today’s world. Instead of looking to Jesus Christ for their needs and direction, they look to Mohammed and also to the spirit world. We must pray for them!
