“The Malays were originally immigrants from Melanesia, possibly via Southern China. The word 'Malay' denotes a man of this race, whether he lives in Malaya or not. A 'Malayan' or 'Malaysian' refers to a person's domicile or citizenship and he may be of any race e.g. a Malayan Chinese.”
Richard Clutterbuck, Conflict And Violence In Singapore And Malaysia, 1945-1983
