Malaya Voyage Tips and guide

You can check the original Wikivoyage article Here

    Malaya was the colonial British term for its colonies on the Malay Peninsula. The modern countries in the area are:

    • Malaysia which incorporates most of the peninsula plus several island territories
    • Singapore, a densely populated and highly developed island city-state at the tip of the peninsula
    • The southern part of Thailand includes part of the Malay Peninsula, used to consist of Malay sultanates and continues to have a Malay Muslim majority in some provinces, but it was never politically part of Malaya.

    Malay or Bahasa Malaysia/Bahasa Melayu is the main language of the area, with English being a common second language.

    This article is on an extra-hierarchical region, describing a region that does not fit into the hierarchy Wikivoyage uses to organise most articles. These "extraregion" articles usually provide only basic information and links to articles in the hierarchy. This article can be expanded if the information is specific to the page; otherwise new text should generally go in the appropriate region or city article.
