About Malaysia

        Malaysia is a country which consists of 13 states and 3 federal territories. I will show picture about states and federal territories below this post. The capital city of Malaysia is Kuala Lumpur which has the largest population, while Putrajaya is the seat of the federal government. 11 states and 2 federal territories are located at west Malaysia,  while other 2 state and a federal territory are located at east Malaysia. Perak is the state where I come from. I had told everyone last week in my introduction.

        I think most of you may not interest in history. So, I won’t talk too much about it but I will say something quite important about Malaysia. Malaysia’s independence day was on 31 August 1957. The day was the end of administrate by British Empire. The Malaysia’s independence was declared by our first Chief Minister of Malaysia, Tunku Abdul Rahman. On the day, Tunku Abdul Rahman lead the crowd shouted ‘Merdeka’ 7 times loudly at Stadium Merdeka. ‘Merdeka’ means independence.
