Hand Gesture : Tumbs Up
What you think you’re saying: Awesome
What you’re actually saying: Up yours.
This gesture, made by closing the fist and keeping the thumb extended upwards generally means “sounds good” or “good work.” Unless you happen to be in Iran. In certain Middle Eastern and African countries, this gesture is the equivalent of flipping the bird.

Introduction
Hand gesture is the most popular in Malaysia that without many people noticed. Actually, almost every day Malaysia citizen used this sign in their life. In other hand, people called it as a Sign Language.
When visiting Malaysia, the visitor should understand the local customs and practices.
Although handshakes generally suffice for both men and women, some conservative Muslim ladies may acknowledge an introduction with a gentleman with a nod of her head and smile. A handshake is only to be reciprocated if the lady offers her hand first. The traditional Malay greeting of "salam" resembles a handshake with both hands but without the grasp. The man offers both hands, lightly touches his friend's outstretched hands, and then brings his hands to his chest to mean, " I greet you from my heart". The visitor should reciprocate the "salam". “Salam” is not practiced by the rest of the community though, so a normal handshake will do.
