introduction of Malaysia


Nature Malaysia

Southeast Asia

                               
Malaysia is located in the center of Southeast Asia, home to a vast range of tropical rainforest that teems with the wonders of nature. The amazing wildlife species found in this region have long been the fascination of researchers and explorers around the world. Divided into Peninsular Malaysia in the west and Borneo in the east, its natural heritage has been the subject of countless documentaries and continues to yield astounding discoveries today. The great diversity of life that you can only find here is well worth the journey among international tourists, much more so that development has yet to overtake it completely.

A small country that covers a land mass of 329,847 km², the deforestation rate here is one of the highest in the world, with less than 50% of primary rainforest left in Peninsular Malaysia while Borneo much worse. The total population is around 27 million people with a multi-racial society consisting of Indigenous tribes, Chinese, Indians and Malays. The country's political system is determined by an autocratic democracy. Besides nature, shopping is another major lure for conventional tourists to Malaysia. Expansive malls and large shopping complexes are a common sight in the large cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Georgetown and Johor Bahru.

To get here, there are several international airports located across the country, depending on where you want to visit; it is easy to book a flight through various aircraft carriers from your country of origin. MAS (Malaysian Airlines) flies to and from various destinations across the world, including Australia, Singapore, United Kingdom (Britain), China, India, Thailand, United States of America and many more. Air Asia is a budget carrier that now flies from various international destinations to Malaysia. Most flights will land or transit in Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) but you can usually fly direct to your Malaysian destination of choice if it has an airport, such as Langkawi, Penang, Kota Kinabalu (Sabah) and Kuching (Sarawak).
