Best Answer

Islam is the national religion for Malaysia, but other religions are allowed to be practiced freely. Other religious holidays such as Christmas and Diwali are celebrated as public holidays. Religious holidays are celebrated by Malaysians of all religions as it is part of their culture to celebrate by gathering with friends and family. This religious freedom allows Christians/Catholics/Presbyterians/etc to prosper and observe their faith (although Muslims are not allowed to convert to any other religion). However, there are minor restrictions such as in building churches, for which there have been reports that the process is very lengthy and difficult.
