Malaysia

About Malaysia

Malaysia straddles Southeast Asia in two parts: the bustling Malay Peninsula, home to the capital Kuala Lumpur, and the states of Sabah and Sarawak on the island of Borneo. Between rainforests that rank among the oldest on Earth, tea-planted highlands, and islands fringed with coral, the country blends Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous cultures into a famously rich cuisine and a skyline crowned by the Petronas Towers.

• ·Malaysia's monarchy rotates: nine hereditary state rulers take turns serving as king, each for a five-year term.
• ·Kuala Lumpur's Petronas Towers were the world's tallest buildings from 1998 to 2004 and remain the tallest twin towers ever built.
• ·Kuala Lumpur means 'muddy confluence' in Malay, marking the spot where the Klang and Gombak rivers meet.
