Everywhere there are Chinese communities, there is some form of ribs & bone soup. But, the Malaysian style of Bak Kut Teh - the most famous of all ribs & bone soup in the world - is a fairly recent creation.

Bak Kut Teh is commonly consumed in both South East Asia. The origin of Bak Kut Teh is unclear, but it is believed to have been brought over from Fujian, China and to have derived from the Fujianese dish. In Malaysia, the dish is popularly associated with Port Klang, where the locals believe it to be the place of origin of Bak Kut Teh.

There are a number of claims for the invention of the dish; one claimed that a local sinseh (a Chinese physician) invented the dish in the 1930s, while another claimed he brought the recipe from his hometown Fujian, China, in the 1940s.The dish is also claimed to have been invented in Port Klang for coolies working at the port to supplement their meagre diet and as a tonic to boost their health in the early 20th century. The dish was popular among early Chinese immigrants, many of whom had also come from Fujian.
