Pangalay (also known as Daling-Daling[1] or Mengalai[2] in Sabah)[3] is the traditional "fingernail" dance of the Tausūg people of the Sulu Archipelago[4] and eastern coast Bajau of Sabah.[3][5][6]
The dance has a similarity to classical Balinese and Thai dances,[7][8] where it is also the most distinctively Asian of all the southern Philippine dances because dancers must have dexterity and flexibility of the shoulders, elbows, and wrists[9] – movements that strongly resemble those of "kontaw silat". The Malaysian art of Buah Pukul is classified as silat despite its Yunnan origin, kuntao is "way of the fist", from kun 拳 meaning fist and tao 道 meaning way. This term was originally used for Chinese martial arts in general. The Pangalay is predominantly performed during weddings or other festive events.[4] The male equivalent of the Pangalay is the Pangasik and features more martial movements, while a pangalay that features both a male and female dancer is called Pangiluk.[10]
The original concept of the Pangalay is based on the pre-Islamic and Buddhist concept of male and female celestial angels (Sanskrit: Vidhyadhari, Tausug: Biddadari) common as characters in other Southeast Asian dances.[citation needed]
Neighbouring Samal and Bajau peoples in the Philippines call this type of dance, Umaral or Igal, and they sometimes use bamboo castanets as substitutes for long fingernails.[9]

This dance is not the traditional dance of the Bajau community in the Semporna District, rather it is introduced by the Suluk people of the Mindanao Islands. The growing interaction between Bajau and Suluk communities causing the dance also becoming the traditional dance for the Bajau community living in Semporna. The word Daling-daling comes from the English word of darling which means lover. The dance becomes an entertainment at certain occasions with exchange of poem between male and female dancers.
