Wikipedia says:


Malaysia (or /məˈleɪziə/) is a federation of thirteen states and three federal territories in Southeast Asia with a total landmass of 329,847 km². The capital city is Kuala Lumpur while Putrajaya is the seat of the federal government. The country is separated into two regions - the Malay Peninsula and Borneo - by the South China Sea. Malaysia borders Thailand, Indonesia, Singapore, Brunei and the Philippines. Located near the equator, the weather is characterized by tropical climate. Malaysia is headed by the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and politically led by a Prime Minister. The government is closely modeled after the Westminster parliamentary system.
The country was once colonized by the United Kingdom; British Malaya and Malaysia did not exist as a unified state prior to 1946 and 1963 respectively. The Federation of Malaya achieved independence from the United Kingdom on August 31 1957. Singapore, Sarawak, British North Borneo and the Federation of Malaya federated to form Malaysia on September 16 1963. The early years of the federation were marred by an armed conflict with Indonesia and the expulsion of Singapore. The Southeast Asian nation experienced an economic boom and underwent rapid development during the late 20th century. With a GDP per capita standing at USD13,000, it from time to time has been considered as a newly industrialized country. As one of three countries that control the Strait of Malacca, international trade plays a large role in its economy. At one time, it was the largest producer of tin, rubber and palm oil in the world. Manufacturing has a large influence in the country's economy. (...) more....

health

Unfortunately, we don't have much English information about Malaysia, but we have more information in other languages German, French, Italian, Spanish. Here is the automatic translation by Google:

There are recommended vaccinations against hepatitis A and C as well as against typhoid, malaria also has a riaprophylaxe. Sense is a small first aid kit with disinfectant (iodine), plasters, diarrhea tablets and insect repellent. But we can also provide on-site in pharmacies (Farmasi). The standard in local clinics and hospitals is good or very good. Invoices, you must pay the same. Close therefore a foreign health insurance. In the hot climate you should drink lots of water, but only bottled. Avoid unpeeled fruit and raw vegetables!
