Malaysia Singapore & Brunei © Lonely Planet 207 Kedah & Perlis Tucked into Malaysia’s northwest corner are two states that fairly drip with greenness and fertility: Kedah and Perlis. If Kuala Lumpur is Malaysia at its most frenetically developed, and Borneo the nation at its wildest and ruggedest, this is the country’s, well, country: not paved, not jungled over, but cultivated, cared for and landscaped into a horizon of looping emerald ridges. Limestone pillars thrust up through this paddyscape and peasants dot it, the latter contributing to the harvest of over half of Malaysia’s domestic rice supply. Not that many foreigners see all this. While it may be one of the most touristed states in Malaysia, most travellers would draw a blank if you asked them anything about ‘Kedah.’ That’s because almost everyone knows it by its biggest island and Malaysia’s number one holiday destination: Pulau Langkawi. One of those postcard places where life is a cruise ship commercial starring you, Langkawi is also a living island where there’s a fair bit to explore beyond the beach, although no one will fault you for losing a few days (Weeks? Months? Langkawi has that effect…) on the sand. Langkawi’s duty-free status also makes it popular with a certain kind of shopper, and it’s not uncommon to see folks leaving the island with tanned arms busting with cartons of Marlboros. Perlis is the smallest state in Malaysia; physically and culturally it borders Kedah. It’s also proximate to Thailand, and most travellers rush through here on their way to that kingdom. Their loss: this corner of the country is part of the Malay heartland, which makes it over- whelmingly friendly and culturally significant. The Malays are known as bumiputra – sons of the soil – and that soil, physical and cultural, is most fertile in Kedah and Perlis.
