Malaysia (pronounced /m?'le???/ or /m?'le?zi?/) is a country that consists of thirteen states and three federal territories in Southeast Asia with a total landmass of 329,847&_160;square kilometres (127,355&_160;sq&_160;mi).[2][3] The capital city is Kuala Lumpur, while Putrajaya is the seat of the federal government. The population stands at over 25 million.[3] The country is separated into two regions—Peninsular Malaysia and Malaysian Borneo—by the South China Sea. [3] Malaysia borders Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines.[3] The country is located near the equator and experiences a tropical climate.[3] Malaysia's head of state is the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (conventionally referred to as 'the King' or 'the Agong') and the government is headed by a Prime Minister.[4][5] The government is closely modeled after the Westminster parliamentary system.[6]

Malaysia as a unified state did not exist until 1963. Previously, a set of colonies were established by the United Kingdom from the late-18th century, and the western half of modern Malaysia was composed of several separate kingdoms. This group of colonies was known as British Malaya until its dissolution in 1946, when it was reorganised as the Malayan Union. Due to widespread opposition, it was reorganised again as the Federation of Malaya in 1948 and later gained independence on 31 August 1957.[7] Singapore, Sarawak, British North Borneo and the Federation of Malaya joined to form Malaysia on 16 September 1963.[8] The early years of the new union were marred by an armed conflict with Indonesia and the expulsion of Singapore.[9][10] The Southeast Asian nation experienced an economic boom and underwent rapid development during the late-20th century. With a GDP per capita standing at USD14,400, it has, from time to time, been considered a newly industrialised country.[11][12] Because Malaysia is one of three countries that control the Strait of Malacca, international trade plays a large role in its economy.[13] At one time, it was the largest producer of tin, rubber and palm oil in the world.[14] Manufacturing has a large influence in the country's economy.[15]

The Malays form the majority of the population. Some Malays are of Arab[citation needed] descent and there are sizable Chinese and Indian communities. Islam is the largest as well as the official religion of the federation.[3][16] The Malay language is the official language.[17] The Malay language was originally written in Pallava from India, the earliest known inscriptions in Malay were found in southern Sumatra and on the island of Bangka and date from 683-6 AD. They were written in an Indian script during the time of the kingdom of Srivijaya, but nowadays, the Roman alphabet (Rumi) is more often used.[18]

Malaysia is a founding member of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and participates in many international organisations such as the United Nations.[19][20] As a former British colony, it is also a member of the Commonwealth of Nations.[21] It is also a member of the Developing 8 Countries.[22]

Now that the extravagance and spectacle of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Summer Games has subsided, it’s time to reflect on what was.

13. Prevarications, Equivocations, Half-Truths and Palm Oil
September 04, 2008

It has often been said that prevarications and equivocations using statistics are like the bikini. “What they reveal is suggestive but what they conceal is vital!” It was as a young kid that I first heard the word “prevaricator” used and the meaning and implications of the word has stuck with me ever since. I had pushed my elder brother and he had crumpled in a heap on the living room floor. His wailing had brought my mum running in from the kitchen. “What happened?” she asked. “He fell!” I answered, not too convincingly, knowing that my mum disapproved of lying. Taking one look at my b... (read more)
