National Customs of Malaysia

1. Courtesy and courtesy: When Malaysians meet, they should first touch each other's palms, then put them together and touch their hearts to show their greetings.

2. Guest: When a guest visits, the host leads the guest to the living room. After the host and guests sit on the floor, the host sends a betel nut plate, and the guests chew it while cutting betel nuts.

3. Taboo: Don't touch the head and back of Malays. They think the head is sacred. No matter what occasion, you can't take off your hat, and you can't touch your hat and headscarf. Avoid handing things with your left hand and pointing at people with your fingers; Avoid turtles and dogs; Avoid public intimacy between men and women, and pay attention to "men and women don't kiss". In social situations, even couples are not allowed to have physical contact, and offenders will be fined or imprisoned; Avoid yellow, because yellow is the special color of Malaysian princes and nobles, and avoid wrapping gifts with white paper, because white is associated with funerals.
