Life In Malaysia

[kittykat]

Malaysia is a country of its own. Although Singapore used to be part of us on the 16th of September 1963, but then they pulled out on the 9th of August 1965. So Singapore is like, Malaysia's lil brother. In Malaysia, the main races are Malay, Chinese, Indian and Punjabi. We have others of course, Europeans, Pakistani, Indonesians and it goes on. Malaysia is divided into two, the East Coast and The West Coast. The West Coast on the Malay Peninsula is the original Malaysia, used to be known as 'Tanah Melayu' and consists of 12 States and 2 Federal Territories. While the East Coast consists of 2 States and 1 Federal Territory. We have a total of 27,730,000 people living here. So far i think our main concerns are politics, illegal immigrants and how they affect the rate of crime as well as bullying, mainly in boarding schools.
We have many government schools of course but there are also plenty of private and international ones. Especially in Kuala Lumpur, that's where I live. If you attend government schools, they provide free textbooks, dental and health check-ups. Malaysians love the word 'FREE'. We have plentyyyy of sandy beaches. KL has huge malls <3 Haha, and I suppose we're famous for our Petronas Twin Towers as well as FOOD. Woot! We have various sorts. The local favourite is 'mamak' food. Any Malaysian who leaves the country, will definitely miss 'mamak' food. I know I'm not really being formal here, but, oh well. Anyway, if you have any questions, fire awayy. I'll try and answer the best I can.

Hey, Malasya sounds very interesting! I'd love to visit someday. And education is really good there, right? Actually my favourite teacher from high school left to Kuala Lumpur to be the head coordinator of the International Baccalaureate programme at a private school there, and it seems like he's having a blast!

How is the poverty situation there? And does the government practise democratic policies, or not quite so?

Again, have a karma, thanks for participating .

Yeah, it is. (: The poverty rate here is very low and yes, the government practices democratic policies. Sorry haven't been on often, very busy. ):
