East Malaysia
East Malaysia consists of the Malaysian states of Sabah and Sarawak, located on the island of Borneo to the east, across the South China Sea from Peninsular Malaysia (West Malaysia) which is located on the Malay Peninsula. While East Malaysia is less populated and relatively less developed than West Malaysia, its land mass is larger and has notably more natural resources, which are chiefly oil and gas reserves.
