Culture
Malaysia is a multicultural society, with Malays, Chinese and Indians living side by side. The Malays are the largest community. They are Muslims, speak Bahasa and are largely responsible for the political fortunes of the country. The Chinese comprise about a third of the population. They are Buddhists and Taoists, speak Hokkein, Hakka and Cantonese, and are dominant in the business community. The Indians account for about 10% of the population. They are mainly Hindu Tamils from southern India, they speak Tamil, Malayalam, and some Hindi, and live mainly in the larger towns on the west coast of the peninsula. There is also a sizeable Sikh community. Eurasians and indigenous tribes make up the remaining population. Despite Bahasa Malaysia being the official language, when members of these different communities talk to each other, they generally speak English, which was recently reinstated as the language of instruction in higher education. The main indigenous tribe is the Iban of Sarawak, who number 395,000. They are largely longhouse dwellers and live along the Rejang and Baram rivers. The Bidayuh (107,000) are concentrated on Sarawak's Skrang River. The Orang Asli (80,000) live in small scattered groups in Peninsular Malaysia. Traditionally nomadic agriculturalists, many have been absorbed into modern Malaysia.

Malaysia Time and Date Malaysia Culture Back to Top Malaysia reflects different cultural traditions, including those of China, India, the Middle East, Europe, and the entire Malay Archipelago. Early Malay empires absorbed Indian influences, such as Hindu epics and the Sanskrit language. The kingdom of Malacca, centered in the present-day state of Melaka, developed as an Islamic state, or sultanate, in the 1400s. Later, new cultural influences from Europe and China mixed with Hindu and Islamic traditions. A collective but distinctively Malay cultural pattern has emerged out of all these influences, with artistic expressions in literature, music, dance, and art forms.

Malaysia History
History books have made note of Malaysia since the Srivijaya Empire, which controlled much of the region from the 7th century to the 10th century. Afterward, the first kingdom to be centered on the Malay Peninsula was founded in Melaka in the early 15th century. The increase in the spice trade turned Melaka into one of Southeast Asia's leading ports. Subsequent alliances with China and Arabia brought Chinese and Arab traders together in Malaysia, initiating the unique Chinese-Arab cultural blend. Local control of the peninsula, however, was short lived. Portuguese traders and soldiers took over Melaka in 1571, adding yet another influence to the cultural mix, and remained until the Dutch took over in 1641. In time, the Dutch were gradually supplanted by the British, who turned Penang into a thriving port and eventually brought all of Malaysia into their colonial empire. Malaysia agitated for and won its independence in 1957. During the past two decades, until it was rocked by the economic crash in 1997-1998 that affected most of Asia, the country's increasing commitment to modernization continued to pay off. Today it appears to be back on the path to prosperity.

Malaysia - Culture Religion
Most indigenous Malays are Muslim, which displaced Hinduism in around 1430. The initial converts were tolerant Sufis, which is why Islam stills goes hand-in-hand with animism in many areas.
Recently fundamentalism has been on the increase, particularly in the north east, Kelantan.
Batik
Batik is a popular method of applying pattern to textiles, especially in Indonesia and the Malay Peninsula. A form of resist-dyeing, it is similar to ikat except that the wax is applied to the woven cloth rather than the yarn itself. This technique originated in Indonesia and is most distinctive in Java and Sulawesi. In Malaysia the best examples come from the East Coast, especially Kelantan.
Politics - Singapore and Malaysia Harry Lee Kwan Yew was the Prime Minister of Singapore for three decades, during which period he has transformed modern Singapore into a byword for excellence. Opinions differ: some say he was a tyrant, some a miracle worker. There is a school of thought which claims that his achievements were at the expense of his people who he reduced to the status of timid citizens.

... Guestbook Culture Culture is the "total lifeways characteristic of the members of a society, including tools, knowledge, and patterned ways of thinking and acting, that are learned and shared and are not the direct product of biological inheritance". In other words, culture is the creations and combinations of human beings in all the aspects of lives. There are three major elements of culture and they are the norms, value and practices. Putting values and norms into practice is a way to express the culture. Therefore, the way people think or eat and the ways they act are representing their ideology and value. This is culture, which is everything around our living. Before coming to Malaysia, I learned that Malaysia is a multicultural society and people here are tolerance to each other's culture. What are the reasons for that? I have found that the characteristic of Malaysia culture is due to the multi-ethnical society, which is led by the geographical location, the trading point between the East and the West and its historical background, being colonized by British, which led to a mass migration (from other Southeast Asian Countries) in 1930's. Therefore, we have to understand the multi-ethnicity in Malaysia before we can examine the Malaysia culture.

    20. Malaysia / Cultures & People
    Today ten percent of malaysia is Indian. Their culture with it s exquisite Hindutemples, cuisine, and colorful garments is visible throughout the land.
    http://www.geographia.com/malaysia/cultures.html
    Cultures have been meeting and mixing in Malaysia since the very beginning of its history. More than fifteen hundred years ago a Malay kingdom in Bujang Valley welcomed traders from China and India. With the arrival of gold and silks, Buddhism and Hinduism also came to Malaysia. A thousand years later, Arab traders arrived in Malacca and brought with them the principles and practices of Islam. By the time the Portuguese arrived in Malaysia, the empire that they encountered was more cosmopolitan than their own. Malaysia's cultural mosaic is marked by many different cultures, but several in particular have had especially lasting influence on the country. Chief among these is the ancient Malay culture, and the cultures of Malaysia's two most prominent trading partners throughout historythe Chinese, and the Indians. These three groups are joined by a dizzying array of indigenous tribes, many of which live in the forests and coastal areas of Borneo. Although each of these cultures has vigorously maintained its traditions and community structures, they have also blended together to create contemporary Malaysia's uniquely diverse heritage.
    One example of the complexity with which Malaysia's immigrant populations have contributed to the nation's culture as a whole is the history of Chinese immigrants. The first Chinese to settle in the straits, primarily in and around Malacca, gradually adopted elements of Malaysian culture and intermarried with the Malaysian community. Known as
