Our population today is mainly a mix of four major ethnic groups, each with its own heritage, culture and tradition which are the Malay, Chinese,Indians and indigenous people. We also have other minority groups such as Europeans, Americans, Eurasians, Arabs, and Thai which may have assimilated into the dominant groups. All ethnic groups have their own culture,food, language and festival.
There is also a freedom to worship their own religion even though Islam is the Official Religion of Malaysian Federation. There are religious sites available for all major religions such as Batu Caves (Hindu Temple in Selangor), Kek Lok Si(Buddhist Temple in Penang), Masjid Putra (Mosque in Putrajaya) and St. Peter's Church (Oldest Church in Melaka).
