The Nights Are Long in Malaysia

While many people travel to Malaysia for the tropical landscapes and the sunny climates, this can often be troublesome for Muslims during Ramadan. That's because this country typically sees 13 to 14 hours of sunlight a day, meaning their fasting period is longer than average. Nevertheless, Muslims in Malaysia get to break their fast with a Ramadan dish that you'll normally only see in this country: bubur lambuk. This is a savory meat porridge.

Other Ramadan traditions include inviting friends and family to special feasts. During these feasts, everyone will say their prayers and eat dates, sugar cane juice, soya beans, and so much more.
