Countries that border Malaysia
3 land neighbours: Brunei, Indonesia and Thailand. Each one has a page of its own.
Why this one is hard
3 neighbours to keep in the right order.
23 countries in Asia have more than its 3 land borders; it is the same as Indonesia, Cambodia, North Korea, Oman, Palestine and Vietnam. None of its neighbours borders another, so there is no chain to walk — every one of them has to be learned on its own. Thailand is the most connected of them, with 4 land borders of its own. All of them are on the Asia map with Malaysia, and on the world map with everyone else.
