English: The Ethnics(rectangle green) and Sub-ethnic Groups (rectangle yellow green) in Malaysia.
Malaysia is located in Southeast Asia and separated into two regions by the South China Sea, namely Peninsular Malaysia and East Malaysia (the latter is composed of Sabah and Sarawak). It has land borders with Thailand, Indonesia and Brunei also, maritime borders with Singapore, Vietnam and the Philippines. Malaysia is a multi-ethnic country with three major ethnic groups (Malay, Chinese and Indian); aborigines (Orang Asli which consist of Proto Malays, Negrito and Senoi); Sabahans and Sarawakian (Major sub-ethnic groups of Sabahan are Kadazan/Dusun, Bajau and Murut; followed by urban, Bidayuh and Melanau respectively as Major sub-ethnic groups of Sarawakian). Each ethnic group is further divided into sub-ethnic groups, representing the existing diversity of Malaysian population (Figure 1). The total population is 28.3 million, where Malays comprised 63% of the total population, followed by Chinese (28%), Indians (8%), and other ethnic groups (1%). |
