Abstract

The paper surveys the roles of seven Chinese associations in Kuala Terengganu in maintaining and propagating Chinese culture within a Malay state.These associations have played significant roles in maintaining and propagating Chinese culture as far as the range of cultural activities hosted by them is concerned.There is also a reasonable level of state cultural leadership, through lacking in certain areas.But the small population and the outflow of the younger generation have presented a host of problems to the Chinese associations with regard to the required critical mass, pool of talent,injection of ideas and second-tier lesdership.
