GREETINGS
Man greeting Man – Malay men will use the handshake and also the salaam accompanied with a slight bow. many people use a two handed handshake when greeting and departing.
Woman greeting Woman- Malay women will use the handshake and also the salaam accompanied with a slight bow.
Man greeting Woman - While handshakes are a common form of greeting, many times a simple nod or slight bow will do. Wait for the women to initiate with all three ethnicities.
Eye Contact
Malaysians tend to favor direct eye contact over indirect. However, they may view overtly direct eye contact as suspicious and threatening.
Females tend to prefer more indirect eye contact when dealing with men.
Gestures
People beckon one another by extending an arm and making a scratching motion with their fingers.
Beckoning or pointing with a finger is considered bad form. Using your thumb with the rest of your fingers clenched in fist is the way to go
Always use your right hand only to pass or receive an object.
Personal Space & Touching
Malaysians prefer standing at least arms lengths from one another. Two to three feet is normal. When conversing with friends and close acquaintances this distance is a bit shorter
Amongst friends and close acquaintances of the same sex, there is some touching during conversation. Avoid touching between men and women while conversing.
and the greeting word is welcome (translated)
selamat datang - (celler-mat-da-tang)
