The people of Madagascar are of Malayan ancestry. The Malagasy language is most closely related to the Dayak languages in central Borneo. How their ancestors travelled all the way from Borneo to Madagascar is a mystery.

Its amazing how the Malayo-Polynesian people spread through an area as vast as Madagascar in the West to Hawaii and Easter Island in the east.
