Best Answer

There is no real "sea".. the straits (piece of narrow waterway) is called the Mallacca Straight. Immediately adjacent to the Malaca strait, and between Singapore and Borneo, is the south china sea, which lays on the east coast of Malaysia (the peninsula, not Malaysian Borneo). the area north of the malacca straight, on the other side of malaysia, is the andaman sea. to the south of Singapore, next to Borneo, and south of billitung; is the Java sea (south of Borneo, north of Java (where the capital of Indonesia = Jakarta is located) (Jakarta = Djakarta = Batavia = all old names for the same place). Hope this helps!
Cheers.

There are many names for the different areas of the water that separates Sumatra from Thailand.

Depending on where you are on Sumatra, you may encounter the Strait of Malacca (between Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula, the Karimata Straight in the Java Sea (between Sumatra and Borneo), and the Gulf of Thailand, which would have to be sailed through if one wanted to land in Thailand. Alternatively, the Andaman Sea, north of the tip of Sumatra, could be used to get to Myanmar, which borders Thailand.
