Malaysia is like the pirate, Muslim, doppleganger version of Thailand.  Good people & good neighbors, one and all.  The two nations share so much in common: gorgeous food, people, beaches, weather.  Shoot, they even share the same peninsula.  Well, that is, until Malaysia pulled a surprise,  real estate- flanking maneuver and occupied a bunch of bonus land over in Indonesia.  So Thailand has a big, flagship, modern city, Malaysia's got it too.  Bangkok's got tall dizzying skyscrapers.  Kualu Lumpur does too, only taller.   The Petronas towers, briefly the world's tallest buildings, rise proudly from Malaysia's thriving capital, two glowing corn cobs racing towards the ionosphere, earthly shackles long ago husked for olympic vistas unmatched anywhere in the neighborhood, especially up there in 'stinking' Thailand.  Thailand has world-class beaches, breathtaking jungle vistas.  Malaysia? Check and check.   If you like Thailand, you will like Malaysia.  If you like Thai food, you will like Malaysian food.  If you are sick and tired of Buddha lounging around everywhere like he owns the place, if you just can't stand to read the Life of Pi one more time, (it's officially outlawed in Malaysia*) leave the 'Land' and go for the 'Lay.'  Think of it as a vacation from your vacation, a holiday for your liver.  Come to a country that isn't scared to occasionally tell your free-spending backpacking self that "no, we don't serve alcohol here for religious reasons."  Temperance, remember that?  Sometimes, especially on a hot day, it's... refreshing.

*Life of Pi isn't technically banned in Malaysia.  It isn't even sort of banned. (Sorry)
