Malaysia is a country consisting of several different races. It was very interesting to have the view that Buddhist temples and Islamic mosques coexist adjacently. The major purpose was to find out colors characterized by such multi-racial nationality. The colors of signs of MacDonald’s were regulated by removing vivid red color and even yellow both in KualaLumpur and Malacca. The colors of public toilet signs were same for men and women in both areas. The colors of vending machines were co-ordinated with their environment. In case it is needed to show different contents to different races, the colors red, green and blue were symbolized for Indians, Malayans and Chinese respectively. In fashion, however, colors seemed to be assigned to those races in more subtle way. The pink church and the buildings surrounding it were characterizing Malacca very strongly. Finally the pictures of the Korans were shown. Not all of their cover were green, as hypothesized that the sacred color green in the Islam is due to it., Departmental Bulletin Paper}, pages = {59--76}, title = {多民族国家マレーシアの色彩}, year = {2014} }
