According to wholevehicles, Malaysia is a Southeast Asian country located on the Malay Peninsula and the island of Borneo. It is bordered by Thailand to the north, Indonesia to the south, and Brunei to the east. It has an area of 329,847 square kilometers, making it slightly larger than New Mexico in the United States. Malaysia’s terrain consists mainly of coastal plains in the west, uplands in the east, and mountains along its northern border. The country is divided into two distinct regions: Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia. Peninsular Malaysia is home to most of Malaysia’s population and contains its capital city, Kuala Lumpur. East Malaysia consists of two states on Borneo that are separated from Peninsular Malaysia by a stretch of water known as the South China Sea. The education system in Malaysia follows a 6-3-3-4 system similar to that used in many other countries around the world. Primary school lasts for six years followed by three years each at secondary school and pre-university level respectively before students can pursue higher education at university or college level. Education is free at all levels up until Form 6 (the last year of pre-university) after which fees must be paid for any further studies. There are also vocational training centers available for students who wish to pursue a career in technical or manual labor. The government has implemented various initiatives over the past few years aimed at improving access to quality education for all citizens, including free textbooks and school uniforms for primary school students as well as providing scholarships for those pursuing higher education.
