Religion connects strongly with ethnicity, with most Muslims Malay, most Hindus Indian, and most Buddhists Chinese. The presence of such diversity heightens the importance of religious identity, and most Malaysians have a strong sense of how their religious practice differs from that of others (therefore a Malaysian Christian also identifies as a non-Muslim).

Cuisine

Malaysian cuisine听is influenced by various听cultures听from all around the world.听The mixture of flavours makes Malaysian cuisine highly exotic. Malaysia's population consists mostly of three ethnic groups: Malays,听Chinese听and听Indians.

Its variety is the spice in Malay food. The traditional culinary style has been greatly influenced by the long-ago traders from neighbouring countries, such as Indonesia, India, the Middle East, and China. Malay food is often described as spicy and flavourful as it utilizes a melting pot of spices and herbs.

Chinese food, in Malaysia is the Cantonese food. Cantonese food is noted for the variety and the freshness of its ingredients. The food is usually stir-fried with just a touch of oil to ensure that the result is crisp and fresh. All those best known 'western Chinese' dishes fit into this category - sweet and sour dishes, won ton, chow mein, spring rolls.

Lastly in Malaysia there is an abundance of Indian restaurants and food stalls. They are traditionally served on a thali, a circular metal tray on which a number of small bowls called katori. For South Indian cuisine, banana leaves are often used as plates where rice is served in the center, followed by various curries and accompaniments around it. These include dried fish, pappadams (lentil wafers), fresh chutneys made from herbs, coconut, and acid fruits among others.
