Description
Malaysia consists of two separate land masses with a total of 330,343 sq km. Peninsular Malaysia (West Malaysia) is bordered by Thailand in the North and Singapore in the South. East Malaysia, comprising the states of Sarawak & Sabah, stretches along the northern region of Borneo. The two land masses are separated by the South China Sea.
Here you will discover a delightful fusion of Asia’s oldest civilizations – Malay, Chinese and Indian, a geo-cultural mix made even more interesting by the assimilation of other cultures into the fabric of its society – the indigenous cultures of the Orang Asli (Aborigines in west Malaysia), Berawans, Kadazans, Ibans, Penan and other ethnic groups of Sabah and Sarawak, as well as the influence of the British, Portuguese, Dutch and Thais. N atural attractions abound and the historic cities of Penang and Melaka are popular destinations.
Malaysia has an exuberant celebration of festivals, customs, traditions and a tempting array of multic ultural cuisines. Opportunities for adventure are as numerous as they are diverse. From jungle trekking & camping, mountain climbing, cave & caving, and mountain biking, to river safari’s, whitewater rafting, diving, skydiving, off road excitement and more. Its ancient rainforests, climatic stability, plentiful rainfall, and tropical greenhouse heat have endowed Malaysia with a cornucopia of bizarre life forms.
