    • Since Malaysia is a majority Moslem country, be prepared to dress accordingly. The country is accustomed to foreign tourists, so you won't have rocks thrown at you for wearing shorts and a tank top, but it's nice to be respectful. In mosques (including the National Mosque), women are required to cover their heads and wear full-body coverings. These are available for borrowing, if you don't have one. Here's me in full gear...I think I need some lessons on how to wear that head scarf!
