suki in Japanese have the same meaning with suka in Malay
Well, actually the Malay term "suka" was translated directly from Hokkien dialect into Malay.

There is a group of people in Malaysia called "Baba" (also called Peranakan). They are mix-blooded descendants of Malay-Chinese (mostly Hokkien). So, Malay absorbed many Hokkien words into their language, like "pangkin" "di mana". The word "suka" in Hokkien and Malay have the same meaning.
