At school, we not only learn about our own country’s history but also study aspects of world history. Within the pages of our textbooks, we are introduced to historic figures and individuals who have made significant contributions to their nations. While Malaysians regard Biduanita Negara Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza as a national icon, who would have thought that her achievements would one day appear in the textbooks of another country?

Earlier this week, the singer posted a video with her daughter Aafiyah taking part in Taylor Swift’s “Ready For It” lip-sync trend on TikTok. The clip quickly went viral thanks to the duo’s adorable chemistry, but one particular comment caught the attention of many Malaysians, as it revealed something new to them.

A woman from the Philippines commented on the TikTok post, asking if Siti Nurhaliza was the singer featured in her Grade 9 Filipino subject textbook. She explained that an entire page had been dedicated to the songstress. The legend herself did not clarify but simply responded with heart emojis, suggesting the woman was correct. Since she mentioned Grade 9, that would mean that the woman was about 14 or 15 when she learned about the Malaysian singer in school.

In the replies, many urged the woman to share a photo of the textbook page, while others recounted their own experiences of seeing Siti Nurhaliza featured in different textbooks. Some responded to her query by affirming that Siti is indeed Malaysia’s pride. A quick search revealed that the page from the Grade 9 textbook in question is titled Sitti Nurhaliza: Golden Voice and Heart of Asia. It details her journey from humble beginnings to becoming one of the most influential figures in Malaysia.

Judging by the photo used in the textbook, it is likely that this edition was published sometime in 2010 or later, when Siti was in her early 30s. While we’re not sure if she is still featured in textbooks today, it is nevertheless remarkable to know that her achievements are recognised in other countries. Are you surprised to learn that Siti Nurhaliza was featured in a Filipino subject textbook?
