What country do Malay's come from?
Malaysia I'm sorry but I believe that is incorrect inhabitants of Malaysia are known as Malaysian. Malays do not come from a specific country. Malays form an ethnic group, part of which live in Malaysia but also Thailand or Indonesia.

Where did the Malays live?
Malays are an ethnic group from Southeast Asia. Their origins, are theorized to have come from Taiwan. Ethnic Malays today, live in Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, Singapore, Thailand and Philippines. Basically the Malay Peninsula and the Malay Archipelago. Malays are called "Melayu" in the Malay language. BY COUNTRY Ethnic Malays, make up a majority of Malaysia and Brunei's populations. About 50-60% of Malaysia's population are ethnic Malays. The others are Chinese and Indians. Since Brunei, is a small and nearly-landlocked by Malaysia (although bordering the South China Sea), with a population of roughly 300,000; about 90% of Brunei's population are ethnic Malays. In Indonesia, people think that Malays are a majority in Indonesia. Which is wrong, ethnic Malays only form about 20-35% of Indonesia's population. They live mostly in Sumatra's western coasts, Borneo, Sulawesi and small populations in Java. In Thailand, most of the ethnic Malays live in the southern provinces bordering Malaysia down south. Malays also make up a large population in Singapore, a country south of Peninsular Malaysia that is even smaller than Brunei. Brunei and Singapore are perhaps, Southeast Asia's smallest countries and both have big ethnic Malay populations. Malay is even an official language in Singapore.
Where is Malay?
Malays are found in the Malay Archipelago and Malay Peninsula. They mostly live in Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand and Philippines. Their phsyical traits are brown skinned. They speak Malay, and most follow Islam. BY COUNTRY Malays form the majority of Malaysia and Brunei's population. About 60% of Malaysia's population are Malays. Brunei, is a country north of Malaysia that is surrounded by Malaysia (in Borneo) and borders the South China Sea. Brunei, is a very small country with a population of roughly 300,000. About 90% of Brunei's population are ethnic Malays. Although Indonesia's culture and language are Malay, but ethnic Malays only make 10-35% of Indonesia's population. In Indonesia, the Malays live mostly in Borneo, Sulawesi, western Sumatra and small populations in Java. In Thailand, the ethnic Malays live in the southern provinces bordering Peninsular Malaysia. Malays are also a big and official population in Singapore. Their language, the Malay language in fact is one of Singapore's official languages along with Chinese and Tamil (Indian language).
Does Malaysia have an isthmus?
The country of Malaysia does not. However, there is an isthmus on the Malays Peninsula, belonging to Thailand and Myanmar. It's called the Kra Isthmus.
Are there Malays in the Philippines?
Malays are an ethnic group originating from the Malay Peninsula and parts of Southeast Asia. While the Philippines is geographically close to Malaysia and Indonesia, the majority of the population in the Philippines is of Filipino descent, with diverse ethnic backgrounds including Austronesian, Chinese, Spanish, and American influences. While there may be individuals of Malay descent living in the Philippines due to historical migrations and intermingling of cultures, Malays as a distinct ethnic group are not a significant population in the country.
If Malaysian are Malays how about Indonesian?
I already see a problem, with this question that starts with the title. Not all Malaysians, are ethnic Malays. Although yes, ethnic Malays do form a 60% majority of Malaysia's population. The other 40% of Malaysia's population are ethnic Indians, Han Chinese and some indegenous groups. Malaysia's population isn't really that diverse. Indonesia on the other hand, is one of Southeast Asia's most diverse countries. You are to understand that, "Indonesian" is not an ethnicity but rather a nationality. There are MANY ethnic groups in Indonesia. And guess what? Malays are one of them. Indonesians are also ethnic Malays, but not all Indonesians are Malays. Sure, there are a lot of Malays in Indonesia and most of Indonesian culture is based off of Malay culture. But ethnic Malays are only about 10-30% of Indonesia's population. They mostly live in Borneo, Sulawesi (formerly "Celebes"), Sumatra's western coasts and they form a minority population in Java. So if, only 30% of Indonesians are ethnic Malays at the most; then what are the ethnic groups that make up Indonesia? Most of Indonesia's population are Javanese, and they make up about 50-60% of Indonesia's population. Javanese people are not Malays, although they closely related to ethnic Malays. Javanese people also have their own language, the Javanese language along with Indonesian; the national language of Indonesia. Malays and Javanese do look a like, because they share the Austronesian origin.
