Rasi ya Malay (Kimalay: Semenanjung Tanah Melayu) ni rasi kubwa katika Asia ya Kusini-Mashariki.[1]
Ina sehemu tatu zilizo chini ya nchi tofauti:
- Kaskazini-magharibi yake ni eneo la kusini kabisa ya Myanmar (Burma).
- Katikati yake ni eneo la Uthai.
- Kusini ni eneo la Malaysia ya magharibi.
Kusini kabisa kwake, karibu na ncha ya rasi, iko nchi ya Singapuri kwenye kisiwa.[2][3]
Jiografia
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Rasi ya Malay ipo kati ya Bahari Hindi na Bahari ya Pasifiki. Upande wa Pasifiki unahusiana na Ghuba ya Uthai na Bahari ya China. Mlango wa Malakka unatenganisha rasi hii na kisiwa cha Sumatra.[4]
Rasi inaanza kwenye latitudo ya +13 kisha kuelekea kusini hadi latitudo ya +1. Urefu wake ni takriban kilomita 1,555, huku sehemu nyembamba zaidi ikiwa katika eneo la Kithai yenye urefu wa kilomita 60 pekee.[5]
Sura ya nchi hii ni changamano, ikiwa na milima, tambarare, maziwa, pwani, na misitu minene. Milima ya juu zaidi ni Gunung Tahan (mita 2,187) na Gunung Korbu (mita 2,184) nchini Malaysia. Katika tambarare za Uthai, milima ya Khao Luang ina urefu wa mita 1,786, wakati katika sehemu ya Myanmar, Recho Taung ina urefu wa mita 1,330.[6]
