    Foreword

    The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) is a political and economic


    organisation of ten Southeast Asian countries. It was formed on 8 August 1967
    by Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore , and Thailand. Since then,
    membership has expanded to include Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam.

    I will focus on the traditional costumes of three ASEAN countries.The three countries
    that I will focus on are Cambodia,Indonesia,and Philippines.

    Sampot

    The Sampot is the national garment of Cambodia, popular among men and women of
    the lower class. It is basically a sarong similar to those worn in
    neighboring Laos and Thailand, with slight variations. Measuring approximately one and
    a half meters, the two ends of the cloth is sewn together, resulting in a tubular garment
    which is worn over the lower half of the body, extending to the ankles. The wearer ties a
    knot of excess cloth in front to secure it at the waist. Within Cambodia, the wearing of
    the sampot also varies with regards to color, material and dimensions, depending on the
    social class of the wearer.
    Historically the sampot dates back to the Funan era, when a Cambodian king ordered
    the people of his kingdom to wear the sampot at the request of Chinese envoys.

    Kebaya

    The kebaya is the national costume of Indonesia, although it is more accurately


    endemic to the Javanese, Sundanese and Balinese peoples. It is sometimes made from
    sheer material such as silk, thin cotton or semi-transparent nylon or polyester, adorned
    with brocade or floral pattern embroidery. Kebaya usually worn with
    a sarong or batik kain panjang, or other traditional woven garment such
    as ikat, songket with a colorful motif. Kebaya is usually worn during official national
    events by Indonesian first lady, wives of Indonesian diplomats, and Indonesian ladies. It
    also worn by Indonesian ladies attending traditional ceremonies and weddings.

    Barong Tagalog

    The word Barong is a coined word that comes from to the Malaysian Baju which
    translates to Dress the Filipino word "baro" meaning outfit. Similar term was originally
    used to describe what people, both men and women, typically wore in the Tagalog
    region during the Spanish era. The term Barong Tagalog has been for so long been
    shortened by native Filipino speakers into "Barong". Grammatically, Barong is not a
    word that can stand alone. It has a suffix "-ng" which implies that a word that an
    adjective, or a word that modifies it must directly follow. The root word of barong is
    "baro". The term "Barong Tagalog" literally means "Tagalog dress" in Filipino.
