Introduction: A Vibrant Blend
One of Southeast Asias most progressive countries provides enrapturing experiences with its rich mix of cultures, cuisines and landscapes.
Diversity colours Malaysia, from its multi-ethnic, polyglot people and mouth-watering culinary concoctions to its truly startling variety of plants and animals. For centuries, Malaysia has been open to, and absorbed influences from, peoples from all over the world.
The country has been part of Buddhist and Hindu empires, as well as hosted a Muslim one, while some areas spent time as Portuguese and Dutch colonies, before the British put most of the units together that make up todays Malaysia. Because of its location on seminal shipping routes, the country has been key in international trade since prehistoric times, and today it is one of the worlds top 30 trading nations.

About half the country is home to various tropical forest ecosystems, with the more outstanding pristine biodiversity being in Borneo. A fifth of the land comprises plantations of oil palm and rubber, and these, together with manufactured goods and oil and gas, have powered Malaysia to newly industrialised country status. The aim is to reach developed nation status by 2020, ambitions viscerally manifested in modern cities, particularly the cosmopolitan capital Kuala Lumpur.

Tourism is a key income earner, and so infrastructure and tourist products are generally plentiful and well developed. Therefore, a Malaysian holiday could comprise everything from dancing to house music at a ritzy Kuala Lumpur nightclub, to photographing Malay kampung on the coast or visiting tribes once known for their headhunting. And, theres adventure too, everything from climbing to the clouds on Mount Kinabalu to scuba diving at world-famous Sipadan island.
Go off the beaten track to discover idyllic beaches, elaborate festivals and hidden corners of UNESCO sites. The diversity is endless, stunning and memorable.
