Malaysia is split by the South China Sea into a peninsula and states on Borneo. Kuala Lumpur is recognised by the Petronas Towers, while Penang and Malacca keep trading quarters with Chinese and Portuguese traces. Borneo holds the jungles of Sabah and Sarawak with orangutans and Mount Kinabalu. Beaches gather on Langkawi and Tioman. The climate stays hot and humid all year.
