Malaysia offers its visitors endless holiday choices, from exploring high-tech Kuala Lumpur, relaxing on one of its sandy beaches or meeting the tribal villagers of Sabah in Borneo. Peninsular Malaysia is the more developed of the country’s 2 regions and is home to the country’s most popular beach resorts- Penang and Langkawi- as well as the ever-developing city of Kuala Lumpur. East Malaysia occupies the northern segment of Borneo and it is famously known for its resident orangutans and lush rain forests.

Malaysia basks in year-round sunshine; the heaviest rainfall occurs between November to February in the Borneo and the East coast. The climate chart is based on Kuala Lumpur.
