Malaysia is a Southeast Asian country split in two by the South China Sea, boasting contemporary cityscapes, tropical islands and awe-inspiring natural backdrops. It is a diverse nation in both its cultural heritage and landscapes, so there is something for everyone. Dense rainforest occupies the eastern section of Borneo, whilst the bustling capital city of Kuala Lumpur is home to the famous Petronas Towers, which were once the tallest in the world. George Town on the island of Penang is defined by colonial and indigenous architecture and spectacular food markets offering an eclectic mix of cuisines, rightfully earning the title of Malaysia’s gastronomic capital. As a region with many islands, travelling by ferry in Southeast Asia is a popular way of getting around and, from Malaysia, you can sail to various international destinations including Singapore and Thailand.
Located in Southeast Asia, Singapore, is a sovereign city state and island country and lies off the southern tip of the Malay Peninsula. With a land area of about 710 square kilometres, Singapore is one of the smallest countries in the world and the smallest in the region. Although small in size, Singapore manages to command an enormous presence in the world today with its free trade economy and highly efficient workforce. Singapore is a bustling cosmopolitan city of high-rise buildings, landscaped gardens and heritage-rich precincts. Home to a harmonious blend of culture, cuisine, arts and architecture, Singapore is rich in contrast and colour. In fact, you would find that Singapore embodies aspects of both East and West in many interesting ways. Singapore’s population stands at around five million and English as the main language of instruction, and a mother tongue for each major ethnicity. Being a multi-racial society, Singapore is as diverse as it is harmonious. With so much to see and do, this is perhaps best experienced through your encounters with the locals.
