About Malaysia Travel Podcast with Aisyah Rahman

From the publisher's feed

This podcast travels through Malaysia the way a resident might: staying somewhere long enough to learn its pace, then moving on along a connected route. Malaysia's distinctiveness lies in its double geography — the Malay Peninsula, where most people live, and the states on Borneo — linked by histories of maritime trade through the Strait of Malacca.
