In celebration of our nation’s gems, here is all you need to know about Malaysia's Unesco-recognised treasures. To be included on the World Heritage List, a site must be of “outstanding universal value” and meet at least one out of ten selection criteria which Unesco defines as follows:They are Kinabalu Park in Sabah; Gunung Mulu National Park in Sarawak; Melaka and George Town ; and Lenggong Valley in Perak.
Sites nominated by counties to be included in the World Heritage List will not be considered by Unesco unless they have already been included to the country’s Tentative List.According to Unesco, the term cultural heritage includes monuments, collections of objects, oral traditions, performing arts, social practices, rituals, festive events.
In addition, an intangible cultural heritage does not only represent inherited traditions from the past but also contemporary rural and urban practices in which diverse cultural groups take part. Another listing that has been submitted for inscription in the Unesco Intangible Cultural Heritage list is Malaysia’s Breakfast Culture.
