When Should You Visit?:

The best time to visit Asia and the Far East is during the months of October through April as these months are cooler and drier than the remaining months of the year, except for Malaysia which has an opposite climate. It is best to visit Malaysia during the months of April until October as this is the coolest time of the year. Be careful not to visit these places during the monsoon or the rainy season. If you do visit during the monsoons, you will find that the prices are exceptionally affordable because the tourist season picks up only after the rains have past.
