'''Malaysia''' is a country in South East [[Asia]].
'''Malaysia''' is nice for hitching. There is a ''real'' expressway running on the north-south axis from the [[Thailand|Thai border]], via [[Kuala Lumpur]], towards [[Singapore]]. Stay on the gas stations with the nice food stalls. It is pretty easy to get a ride there, but in rural areas it shouldn't be a problem, too. On the onramps of the highway after the toll booth you can usually hitchhike as well, and it's possible to regularly stop multiple cars at once. The only problem being that the drivers are often heading lots of different directions then indicated on your sign. ===Gasstations===You can usually find tasty cheap meals for about 50 eurocents, and thus don't need to carry a lot of food, if any at all. Cold showers, a real treat in the hot climate, are often available free of charge.
===Border Crossing===
There is a ferry from [[Melaka]] to [[Dumai]], [[Indonesia]] (20USD) and police will give you real trouble if you try to leave by a cargo boat (if you can even enter the port. If you make it please inform us here.)
In [[GergetownGeorgetown]] there's a small marina with private yachts. But it's easier to get a free ride with a boat in [[Langkawi]]. Most of the boats go to Indonesia.
There are two border crossings to [[Singapore]].
