Malaysia is a multiracial country. Malaysia has a population of 23.27
million consisting of 61 percent Malays, 30 percent Chinese, 8 percent
Indians and 1 percent of other ethnic groups. Malaysia is unique because
of its diversity of races, religions and cultures, the stability of the
country and many places of interests. Besides, there are many
international achievements which are the pride of our nation.
Diversity
of races, religions and cultures is a significant characteristic of our
nation. Malaysia is a multiracial country with a rich cultural
heritage. Unique to Malaysia is the 'Open House' concept where during
the various cultural and religious festival like Hari Raya, Chinese New
Year, Deepavali, Gawai Day and others, friends and families and even
strangers would visit the homes of those who are celebrating the
festival, to wish them well and enjoy the feast prepared by the hosts.
Although the visitors may be from different races, they still can
tolerate with each other and live under the same roof where they
celebrate the festival together. This will help to strengthen the ties
among themselves.
Moreover, the stability and peacefulness of
Malaysia is also a uniqueness of us. We live harmoniously in a country
where there are no wars and conflicts among Malaysians. War is dreadful
and it may deteriorate humans' lives. We are fortunate that our country
is safe and runs off the war. So, people can live safely here. Somehow,
Malaysia is a paradise for those Iraqis or Pakistanis. Besides, our
country is freed from natural disasters such as earthquakes. Earthquakes
may bring death and destroy many buildings. Therefore, Malaysia is
unique because of the stability and peaceful environment.
On top
of that, there are many places of interests in country such as beaches,
islands and rain forest. Malaysia's rain forest is considered as the
oldest in the world. The diverse species of animals and plant life
continue to excite a great deal of scientific research. Many believe
that some undiscovered plant may hold cures to many currently incurable
human diseases. There are many islands in our country such as Pulau
Langkawi, Pulau Redang, Pulau Ketam and many others. Pulau Langkawi has a
lot of historitical informations. Those who are in favour of history
can go there to explore the history of that place. All the beaches in
those islands are beautiful. The sand is soft and white. The
accommodation is well-established and that makes those islands ideal
places to visit.
Following this, there are also international
achievements of our country. Those achievements include the existence of
Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), Formula One (F1) racing
circuit and the Petronas Twin Towers. KLIA is unique because it has all
that is needed for business, entertainment and relaxation within its
boundaries. The airport is part and parcel of the Multimedia Super
Corridor where high technology industries are being actively developed.
Nevertheless, there is a Formula One Race Track near the airport, so
foreign car racing enthusiasts from all over the world can come for a
visit to gather here. Besides that, Petronas Twin Towers which is a
building that soars 452 metres into the sky is once upon a time, the
tallest building in the world and yet it is a national pride to the
people of Malaysia.
In short, Malaysia is unique that it has
diversity of races, religions and cultures, a stable and peaceful
environment, places of interest and some internal achievements. Those
are important characteristic of our nation. It is rich of cultural
heritage; it would be worth to play a visit here.
