Nyonya culture, a unique product of the fusion of Chinese and Southeast Asian cultures, has gained widespread attention and use in the media.

The study aims to provide a new approach to integrating and disseminating Nyonya culture in the context of digitalization, as wellas providing a unique perspective on the dissemination of traditional culture through Malaysian Chinese media.
