This article intends to demonstrate how cultural organizations, such as Gapena
under the leadership of Ismail Hussein, have been among non-state actors that
have been active in international relations. It also highlights the three
variables, namely identity, culture and religion, which inform the activities of
these non-state actors. In addition, it wants to reflect upon the religio-cultural
relationship cemented and strengthened between Gapena and South Africa’s
Cape Malays and it also shares thoughts on how Ismail Hussein played a
pivotal role in this. Prior to this, the paper takes into account the debates
surrounding the notion of ‘Malayness’ within the respective communities and
offers a comparative view. Finally, it shows how their identities have been
framed and how images were constructed within the respective
communities |
