The Diocese of West Malaysia is an Anglican diocese which covers the entirety of West Malaysia. The Diocese of West Malaysia (DWM) was founded on 8 April 1970, as DWM together with Diocese of Singapore split from Diocese of Singapore and Malaya. As a result, the Diocese of Singapore and Malaya was dissolved.
