Tourism  
Malaysia's mix of cultures, primitive tribes, jungles, tropical beaches, coral reefs, friendly people, exciting bazaars, mountain climbing, orangutans, batik factories, great food and resorts are its chief attractions.

Malaysia has fervently embraced modern technology. It boasts two of the world's tallest skyscrapers and a huge "cyber" center for computer businesses. But it still has some of the world's most remote jungle, one of Southeast Asia's most vibrant old ports and an atmospheric colonial hill station.
