Krem

Not to be confused with KREM, the CBS-affiliated television station serving the Spokane, Washington-Coeur d'Alene, Idaho area.

The krem is a musical instrument, a type of bamboo tube zither played by the Jah Hut group of the Orang Asli tribal peoples of Malaysia.

The instrument is made of a bamboo tube, open at one end and with some slits for sound-holes; it has two strings, previously made of roots but now often nylon. The instrument may be plucked or bowed, and is mainly played by women.[1]
