from:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tudung
Tudong is a Sumatran word which is commonly translated/referred to as a veil or headscarf in English.
In Malaysia the tudong is worn in accordance to Islam's hijab. Usually, the tudong covers the hair while leaving the face exposed. It is part of the standard dress code for office work, school uniforms and formal occasions.

The term seems to be primarily Malaysian with the usages I found. |
