What role did geographic location and natural resources play in the the development of Malaysia?

 Malaysia is a beautiful place and it is a great achievement. But how has it developed based on where exactly it is located and the resources they have used and created. There are many different parts of Malaysia. There are places near the ocean, places in the city and even places in the forest and these places have developed a lot. In these places they also make and create sources. And actually these sources come from other really important sources. I live in Kuala Lumpur, which is in the city. And these are ways how Malaysia has developed.

I'm gonna start with the places nearby to the ocean because I think these places have developed a lot. When you go to the beach do you ever realize that people just throw their junk into the ocean or they might leave it in the sand and it flies off into the ocean. It travels across the world. Even though Malaysia isn't the most cleanest place in the world it still has changed and developed a lot more than a long time ago. A long time ago people would just leave all their trash wherever they wanted to because they are too lazy or they don't understand what the point is. As time moved on people did that less. People also took time to make recycling bins. I'm not saying that everybody does that, but more people do it rather than before where pretty much no one did. That is definitely one big development in life.

Now moving on with the city life. It's really busy in the city and you don't realize what's happening. It's too crowded. Not only with people, but also with cars! Cars are like robots and you never know what to expect from them. They are being controlled by people. Back then you didn't really have traffic lights and it was really dangerous. Cars were just moving in each direction. And again you never know what to expect. But time flew by and traffic lights were spread to Malaysia. Cars started using traffic lights to know when to go and when to stop. When to slow down and when to speed up. Just imagine what it would be like if we had no traffic lights. The world would be losing more and more people. Even though I'm Malaysian I honestly think that some Malaysian drivers can get a bit off sometimes as in they can get a little bit crazy with their driving. That's why traffic lights are really important in the city.

What are the main things you see when you go to a forest? Trees! What would life be like without trees? Malaysia is filled with trees. And people keep planting more and more. Trees provide many things in life that we need. Such as oxygen and paper. Why do we need oxygen? So that we can breath and you get it all from the trees. Paper is really important also. You use paper to write down your thoughts, your ideas and anything else. Sometimes it's also the way to communicate. Trees also make more resources like tools and stuff. That's how much we need trees in life. Malaysia is definitely a green country.

So reading this, now you know the great developments in Malaysia. I know that not everybody in Malaysia are the most fortunate people, but this doesn't effect anything. And this also does not stop us from doing anything to help. If you actually take a chance to look around you might actually realize that some places look cleaner. Some places have recycling bins. All of this makes a huge differnce. Malaysia is filled with great developments.
