Domesticated Chickens come from Malaysia

That's right!

Domesticated Chickens first came from Malaysia.

"Chicken. The Indian jungle fowl, Gallus gallus, is the acknowledged progenitor of domestic fowls the world over. It is native to a wide region all the way from Kashmir to Cambodia, with perhaps the centre of origin in the Malaysian land mass."
---A Historical Dictionary of Indian Food, K. T. Achaya Oxford University Press:New Delhi 1998 (p. 41)
