Brief Description

Malaysia is a known multi-ethnic and multicultural country that features people of different religion, country and race live in a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.  Two integral aspects of the culture of Malaysia involve diversifying musical and dances from all the folks and races.  Both the music and dance of Malaysia have evolved from more basic needs into the spellbinding, complex art forms they are today.

Reminiscent of any other country, dance is a popular cultural form in Malaysia too. The influence of various cultures is inherent in the culture of Malaysia and it is also visible in its dance.  Dance, of any nation state, does not only characterise the culture, but also make an inseparable part of entertainment.  At times, you can find a particular dance known after some particular region. In fact, such dances act as an added attraction in celebrations, be it wedding parties, reception, religious ceremonies or any other event.
