Malaysia is a Southeast Asian federation of 32 million people on two main landmasses: Peninsular Malaysia (bordering Thailand) and Malaysian Borneo (Sabah and Sarawak). It is one of Southeast Asia's most diverse and economically developed nations, with Malay, Chinese, Indian, and indigenous communities. Kuala Lumpur, the capital, is a modern city dominated by the iconic Petronas Twin Towers. Malaysia offers extraordinary biodiversity: orangutans in Borneo, ancient Taman Negara rainforest, sea turtles in Terengganu, and pristine islands including Langkawi and the Perhentians.

The Malaysian ringgit has favorable exchange rates for European visitors. KLIA Ekspres train from airport to KL Sentral takes 28 minutes.
