Malaysian Indian
The Malaysian Indians or Indian Malaysian ((タミル語:மலேசிய இந்தியர்கள் )) consists of people of full or partial Indian descent who were born in or immigrated to Malaysia. In 2010, there were nearly 2,400,900 people self-identifying as "Indian" who hold Malaysian nationality (including Malaysian-born and foreign-born people of Indian descent). This number excludes those who does not have received Malaysian citizenship (MyKad): permanent residents and non-citizens.
Many are descendants from those who migrated from India during the British colonisation of Malaya. In modern Malaysia, Indian is wrongly termed as a "race" in Malaysia, thanks to the British colonial legacy, that often lumped various ethnic groups of the Indian subcontinent into one category, overlooking the mass racial diversity that exists within the South Asian population. There is possibility that the first wave of Indians migration towards Southeast Asia happened when the Asoka's invasion towards Kalinga and Samudragupta's expedition towards the South. and then they have been present in the Malayan archipelago since the period of the influential Tamil Chola dynasty of the 11th century. Today, they form the third largest ethnic group in Malaysia after the Chinese and the Malays.
Malaysia is home to one of the largest populations of Overseas Indians, constituting about 8% of the Malaysian population.〔()〕 Malaysia's Indian population is notable for its class stratification, with large elite and lower income groups and diverse racial differences even within its fold. The Malaysian Indians also make up a disproportionately large percentage of the Malaysian professional workforce per capita, constitute 15.5 percent of Malaysian professionals. This includes doctors (28.4%), lawyers (26.8%), dentists (21%), veterinary surgeons (28.5%), engineers (6.4%), accountants (5.8%), surveyors (3.0%) and architects (1.5%). Furthermore, Malaysian Indians make up 38% of the Malaysian medical workforce.〔〔()〕
There is a small community of Australians of Malaysian Indian descent found on the Australian external territory of Christmas Island.〔http://www.cidhs.cx/island-induction〕
