Malaysia: Greetings from... Malaysia

Some interesting facts about Malaysia:

1) In terms of government system, Malaysia's national administration is largely structured along British lines - a constitutional monarchy, with power largely invested in parliament.

2) Few places can be described as "a country to two halves" quite a Malaysia. It does beaches and metropolitan gleam on the Malay Peninsula (also known as West Malaysia) - which is home to the capital Kuala Lumpur. It also offers rainforest and the call of the wild on Borneo - which it shares with Indonesia and Brunei.

3) Malaysia is home to some 31 million people, but only half this head-count is Malay. There are Chinese and Indian swirls to this melting pot, as well as indigenous tribal groups, particularly on Borneo.
