Ang mo (Chinese:紅毛; pinyin:hóng máo; Pe̍h-ōe-jī:âng-mo͘ / âng-mn̂g) or ang moh is a racial epithet describing white people, mainly in Malaysia, Indonesia and Singapore, and sometimes in Taiwan and Thailand. It literally means "red-haired" and originates from Hokkien, a variety of Southern Min. The usage is similar to the Cantonese term gweilo (鬼佬, "ghost man").
