The following is published by KaoNet, welcome to read!

1. Is Malaysia a livable immigrant destination?

As far as climate is concerned, Malaysia can be divided into three categories: coastal, highland and lowland. Malaysia has two distinct regions, each with its own unique weather pattern. Due to the influence of El Nino, the climate of Malaysia Peninsula is slightly drier than that of East Malaysia. This reduces the rainfall in dry season in Malaysia Peninsula. Malaysia's mountainous areas are high in altitude, and the temperature difference changes greatly, so it will become very cold at night. Monsoon has a great influence on the weather in Malaysia. In the months from May to September, the monsoon spreads from south to west, and in the months from 10 to March, the monsoon spreads from north to east.

Due to these monsoons, the west coast of Malaysia is wettest from April to 10, while the east coast is wettest from 1 1 to February. Although the rainy season on the west coast is relatively mild and there are short-term thunderstorms in the afternoon, the rainy season on the east coast is much heavier and should be avoided. In fact, many beach resorts closed during the rainy season and reopened in March.

March to April and September to 165438+ 10 are popular destinations in Kuala Lumpur. Borneo, Malaysia is another popular tourist destination, and it is the wettest from 10 to February.

The tour time on the east coast is from June to July, and the weather on the west coast is favorable in 65438+10-February. Sabah is pleasant in April, while Sarawak is dry from June to July.

What clothes are suitable for different seasons?

Loose clothes made of light materials are a wise choice all year round. Cotton or a material that absorbs moisture and sweats is ideal because it can maintain a constant humidity. It is advised not to wear loose clothes anywhere outside the beach, and women are advised to cover their legs and upper arms in public to avoid violating local cultural norms. Because it is raining unpredictably, take an umbrella.

The annual average rainfall is 250 cm, 165438+ 10 is the wettest month with an average rainfall of 320 mm, and the driest months of the year are June and July with an average rainfall of130 mm.

Rainfall is variable, depending on the place and time of the year. In the rainy season, East Malaysia can get as much as 5080mm of rainfall, while Malaysia Peninsula can only get 2500mm of rainfall in the rainy season. Rainfall patterns in inland lowlands are more consistent and very humid. The average humidity in Kuala Lumpur is about 80%.

Malaysia is close to the equator, so there is plenty of sunshine in this country. The sunshine is the most in March and May, exceeding 200 hours respectively. 1 1 month is at least 150 hours. Naturally, the rainy season will affect the amount of sunshine received by Malaysia, so if all factors are considered, Malaysia will receive about 6 hours of sunshine every day. Of course, it will be different according to the location. In peninsular Malaysia, AlorSetar and KotaBharu have about seven hours of sunshine every day, while in Borneo, Kuching has only five hours a day. In order to explain the different climates in different places, there are some extreme situations: in June+10, 5438, the daily sunshine time in Malaysia may be as high as 8.7 hours, while in Borneo, it is only 3.7 hours in the same month.

The average annual humidity in Malaysia is relatively high, depending on the geographical location, ranging from 70-90%. Damp-heat rash may be a problem, especially for people with sensitive skin. In this humidity, babies are prone to diaper rash, and adults and children may have "rash", that is, sweat stays under the skin. In this case, please enter the air conditioner as soon as possible to avoid overheating. Take a cold bath or sponge bath and avoid using thick creams and lotions. When you go out, please keep your clothes at hand so as to clean and dry the affected area regularly, and remember to change the baby's diaper frequently. Moisture-absorbing and sweat-wicking fabrics are good because they can keep skin moist and sweat-wicking, and help prevent rashes.

There may be a typhoon between July and November. Malaysia was also hit by a tsunami and was affected by the Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami in 2004. Although the earthquake in West Malaysia is stable, the region is still vulnerable to the Sumatra earthquake.

Malaysia is located on the Sunda tectonic plate, sandwiched between two tectonic plates close to each other: India and the Philippines. Therefore, there are more earthquakes in Sabah than anywhere else in Malaysia. In 20 15, Sabah suffered a severe earthquake, which has affected Malaysia since 1976.

Due to the rainy season, Malaysia is prone to river floods. Malaysia has 189 river basins with an average annual rainfall of 2000-4000mm, which makes flash floods and long-term floods a great risk.
