====Malaysia==== [[File:National Museum KL 2008 (153).JPG|thumb|upright|''Beca'' from Parit Jawa, Muar, Johor, at the [[Muzium Negara]]]] In [[Malaysia]], pedestrian-pulled [[Pulled rickshaw|rickshaws]] were gradually replaced by cycle rickshaws ({{Lang|ms|beca}} in [[Malay Language|Malay]], from [[Hokkien]] ''bΓ©-chhia'' ι¦¬θ» "horse cart"). Cycle rickshaws were ubiquitous up to the 1970s in cities. Since then, rapid urbanisation has increased demand for more efficient public transport, resulting in dwindling cycle rickshaw numbers. Today, cycle rickshaws are operated mostly as a tourist attraction, with small numbers operating in [[Malacca]], [[Penang]], [[Kelantan]], and [[Terengganu]].{{Citation needed|date=April 2013}}
