All about Malaysia

Malaya used to be a sleepy British colony of rubber planters and misfits.

Like most colonies, it was a sunny refuge for shady people.

Then, in 1957, it became independent and went back to sleep.

I came across an article in a British Daily and the very first paragraph caught my attention. I love the 3rd line. Initially it sounds like a negative article but read on and it's the slight opposite. Seems like the online version is not entirely the same as the printed version.
