Over in the east coast, the
coastline is shorten, the ridges of the coast looks as if the land has been
eaten these events are due to the fact that the and there is no obstruction
between the East Coast and South China Sea, this encourages a higher rate of
destructive waves which eats away at the coast, taking away material from the
coastline

Describing The Coastline Of Malaysia
The Malaccan Straits, or the
west coast of Malaysia, has a larger deposition area as seen near Sungai Ayer
Tawar, this is due to the fact that the Sumatran Islands are blocking
prevailing winds also the edges of the coast look smooth and rounded, this
feature increases the number of constructive waves forming, thus depositing
more material on the beaches and shores of the Malaccan Straits, A good example
would be Port Dickson, it has a long and wide coastline, this give a clear
picture that more constructive waves are depositing material that lengthen the
coastline
