Help! Case Insensitivity with SELECT..WHERE..LIKE queries

Help, anybody:

I'm trying to run a SELECT...WHERE...LIKE query on product names and descriptions. However, I don't know of a way to ensure that the search is case-insensitive, as the LIKE conditions are dependent on user input. I need to make sure that the program returns a positive search result when a user types in "malaysia" even if "Malaysia" is the actual entry in the database.

I'd humbly appreciate any assistance. Thanks.
