Malaysia Local Streetwear

Can't think of an appropriate AfD tag...I don't see this as a notable topic, and the almost total lack of content does not persuade me otherwise. TheLongTone (talk) 13:54, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. appears to have been written to justify the promotional article Stoned & Co, which I just deleted as A7/G11.  DGG ( talk ) 17:03, 2 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete The intention here is to promote a brand. This can be safely deleted. We don't seem to have articles about "streetwear" by country anyway. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 07:27, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete as by far nothing acceptable at all, nothing basically notable. SwisterTwister   talk  07:01, 8 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Having been myself to Thailand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, and Indonesia, and knowing my domestic partner from the Philippines, I don't see any differences in how young men dress in any of those Southeast Asian countries. They all dress in the same "street clothes" -- old blue jeans and worn T-shirts -- and tend to be more modest than North American men. Conformity to social norms, such as gendered dress, is extremely important in all of those countries. Even men of different religions tend to dress alike in larger cities and resort areas (although I noticed more "ethnic" differences in the small city of Port Kelang, and older men would not be caught dead in a t-shirt). I don't understand what's notable and different from the 200 million young men in any similar country. Am I missing something that I don't get? That does not say that ethnic clothing or tribal dress might be different from any old street wear (see, e.g., sarong, Malaysian cultural outfits, batik, Peranakan beaded slippers, and Barong Tagalog, all of which are notable and unique cultural expressions of those individual nations).
