If you look at the world map, the country of Malaysia is located in southeast Asia. The South China Sea divides this country into two parts - east and west.
Moreover, as the modern map of Malaysia shows, the western part of the country is located on the Malacca Peninsula. From the north it borders with Thailand, and from the south with Singapore. The western coast is washed by the waters of the Burma Sea.
The eastern part of the country occupies a third of the island of Kalimantan. In some sources, this piece of land is also called Borneo. This part of the country borders Brunei and Indonesia.
