Malaysia is very famous for its food, for example, laksa, satay and nasi lemak, and its megadiverse biodiversity, home to a number of endemic species.

Malaysia is a megadiverse country, with a high number of species and high levels of endemism. It is estimated to contain around 20% of the world’s animals species. There are about 210 mammal species in the country, over 700 species of bird have been recorded, over 250 reptile species, about 150 species of frogs and thousands of insect species.
