Tips

Malaysia is a multicultural nation but predominantly an Islamic nation. It is important to remain respectful towards local traditions, customs, laws and religions at all times. Sightseers booking luxury holiday packages to Malaysia must remember to remove their shoes before entering places of religious interest.

Though locals are tolerant towards western holidaymakers, it makes sense to avoid wearing revealing clothes and putting on heavy jewellery. It is also important to avoid being overly amorous in public.

Luxury seekers booking holidays packages must know that Malaysia follows draconian laws when it comes to drugs and such offences may even lead to death penalties. Homosexual acts are considered illegal and penalties include corporal punishment and jail sentences.

Malaysia doesn’t have a tipping culture; however, it’s always a great idea to offer a token of appreciation for good service rendered to you.

Although Malaysia is a fairly safe tourist destination, petty crime is common. It pays to heed general safety precautions. For safety advice on visiting different parts of the country, check with FCO’s website www.fco.gov.uk.

The standard of medical facilities is satisfactory in major cities but can be limited in rural areas. It is important for travellers to heed necessary vaccinations and stock medications to last the trip. It makes sense to take out comprehensive travel insurance that covers any overseas medical costs.
