Malaysia is on the Malay Peninsula in
southeast Asia. The nation also includes
Sabah and Sarawak on the island of
Borneo to the east. Its area slightly
exceeds that of New Mexico.
Most of Malaysia is covered by forest,
with a mountain range running the
length of the peninsula. Extensive
forests provide ebony, sandalwood,
teak, and other wood.
Formerly known as "Malaya".

an independent country on 31 August 1957.
On 16 September 1963 the federation was
enlarged by the accession of the states of
