1982 Indonesia 34 105 Both in social spirit and instrumentation dangdut reaches back into the early colonial period, when a potpourri of Indonesian, Arab, and Western instruments were played together.
1996 New Straits Times (Malaysia) (Nexis) 11 May (Arts section) 3 It's different in Malaysia where listeners still think dangdut carries immoral and dirty messages.
1998 C. A. Lockard Dance of Life 236 In the mid-1970s the charismatic Rhoma Irama exploded onto the pop charts with a somewhat more rock-oriented, electrified dangdut style strongly imbued with both Islamic moral themes and socioeconomic populism.
