Definition: The term "Malaysia" is a Malaysian name, which translates to "Kingdom of Malaysia". This name originated from an ancient king in the Malay world, who lived around 600-175 BC. He ruled over the region today's Malaysia. Malaysia is located on the southeast coast of Southeast Asia, bordered by the Philippines to the north and west, Indonesia to the south and east, Thailand to the south, and Singapore and Brunei to the north. It has an area of around 260,184 square kilometers (95,782 sq mi) and is divided into four states: Selangor, Sabah, Terengganu, and Johor. The state of Malaysia is characterized by its diverse population, with a mix of Malay and Chinese ethnic groups. Its culture, language, and traditions are influenced by the Melayu people who historically occupied and settled in the region. The official languages spoken in Malaysia are Mandarin and Malay. Malaysia has an extensive network of highways, rail lines, ports, and airports that facilitate trade, tourism, and communication across its vast territory. It is also home to many cultural institutions, including museums, galleries, theaters, and music festivals. The term "Malaysia" was introduced into English in 1963 when a British explorer named Alfred Hitchcock gave the country a name similar to his own. This name became widely used in English-speaking countries as an alternative name for Malaysia, which is still recognized by many in Southeast Asia today.
