In Malaysia, tall high-rises contrast with tribal village houses, beaches and islands stand removed from protected forests, and though it has some of the remotest tribes in the world, it is one of Asia’s more prosperous nations. Malaysia’s steady progress towards modernization, a blend of cultures, Chinese, Malay and Indian and the diversity of flora and fauna, make this progressive nation one of the most colourful and unique in Asia. To get under Malay skin read ‘Lord Jim’ by Joseph Conrad, watch the documentary ‘Guardians of the Forest’, and listen to the sound of traditional drums called Malay gendang.
