Malaysia is one of my favourite countries that I have visited and I've visited over 30 countries - Malaysia is my 3rd favourite out of 30-odd having been there 5 times already and planning for the 6th visit in the near future. I agree with all the points you made about Malaysia, Ken. In fact, I am planning to retire in Malaysia in 7-8 years time hopefully (insha'allah)
3:45 "... a perfect example..." It was indeed... A Malay pakcik and a Chinese uncle spending a quiet afternoon together while sipping tea/coffee and inviting a passing unknown foreigner to join them... What more could you ask... Ken, when you came to Malaysia in early March 2020, just before the MCO, you have 164 subs, including myself. You waded in ankle deep water to enter your boarding place after you reached KL from Melaka. Today August 5th. 2022, you have 99.3k subs... congratulations...
Thanks Ken. As a Malaysian I really don’t understand what we are complaining about the country every single day. It takes a foreigner to make us appreciate what we already have.
I was in Malaysia for 2 years studying and I have 2 close friends there. One is a local and the other is from Zimbabwe. Whenever Malaysian friend talks about the country like 90% of what she says is a complaint. My Zimbabwean friend however just sings it’s praises to the point I’m moving back this year. Think the only valid complaints are the heat and the traffic, otherwise there should be no reason to complain lol
We respect guests who respect our country. We love good relationships with each other. We love peace and live in tolerance. we hate hostility. When our country is peaceful, we can live happily. That's why we welcome everyone who wants to know about our country.
couldn't agree more, that is why we welcome visitors from ALL AROUND the WORLD as long as they respect the diverse cultures, religions ,ways of life of the local ppl.
i am malaysian chinese but i will tell you this my malay , indian and iban are my malaysian brothers and sisters , hidup rakyat , hidup raja dan negaraku malaysia .
Hi Ken, I lived and worked in Penang for 2 years and traveled all over. I love Malaysia for all the reasons you mentioned, especially the cultural diversity, religious tolerance and hospitality of the people. It is a beautiful country with a vast amount of flora and fauna. It is modern and clean as much as it is true to tradition and cultural heritage. Food is amazing and affordable. For these reasons and more, I love Malaysia and think it is one of the best places to live and most welcoming 💕🙏.
Ken, you are not a foreigner or a tourist in Malaysia ... You are already part of us .... We Malaysians have regarded you and d other MCO youtubers and our " Accidental Digital Tourism Ambassadors " not only as our friends but part of our ' family members ' already, so to speak ....
@@SSxxx18 .... Yes, u r rite on that ... I seldom watched youtube until d MCO youtubers emerged during d MCO and they showed parts of Malaysia that i have not seen before and even some parts of Malaysia that i have seen and been, they showed them in a different perspective and now i am more or less addicted to watching food and travel videos .... And ya Ken's videos and d JLW's videos definitely had improved from time to time especially with their shots both their on d ground shots and their drone shots, their editing and contents.. And ya Ken definitely had put on weight, so does Steve and Ivana of JLW too .... JLW had reached their 100k subs some time back and i am looking forward for Ken to reach his 100k sub which could be pretty soon, i believe ...
2:47 Ken was in the middle of talking about Malaysian cultural harmony and hospitality, and lo and behold, we have a Malay pakcik and a Chinese uncle chilling drinking coffee inviting him to join them. You can't make this up the timing was too perfect. 🤣
i feel so proud!!! rasa malu gitu..brader ni banyak sangat puji smpai kita rasa maluu... you lived in malaysia for only 1 year but you know malaysia so well!!! thank you so much!
Malaysia is called Truly Asian since one can experience many Asian cultures in one place without traveling the continent. My wife is from Malaysia and every time we travel from the US we have a blast. Highly recommended place to visit. Thank you for the amazing videos.
I'm quite a traveller too...for me Malaysia has a diverse option of food to choose whether locals or foreign food...i have traveled to many countries before like korea, thailand, new zealand and etc...i dont have any problem with their food as they have their own specialty, but its so hard to find foreign food and if theres one, the price is insanely crazy 😭😭...for example, when im in australia, i crave for Malaysian food but the price is insanely expensive and when im travelled to korea, its so so hard to find foreign food (the price 🤑🤑)...in Malaysia, you can easily find korean, japanese, arabian, indonesian, thailand, western, mexican and so many more and the price is not that expensive...
generally all Malaysian are very kind - just try to find a suitable topic to start the conversation...sometime you meet foreigners look like a Malaysian i.e Indonesian,Chinese, Indian, Myanmar, Nepal. Bangladeshi etc

correction. Putrajaya isn't the new capital, Kuala Lumpur is still the capital. Putrajaya is a new city that gather all of government administrative office in one place, it used to be all over the place in KL making it hard for people to do their business.
I loved it when you said, no language barrier. I mentioned the same thing whilst I was in Japan in the 80s. They were shocked when I said no language barrier in Malaysia because most Malaysians do speak a little bit of English.
I hope that Germany can become more like this....and my country of Canada as well. I was also stuck in Malaysia during the Pandemic and totally agree with you. Since then, I have been to 83 countries and I find the hospitality is fantastic in most places....but in western Europe I don't feel the love (of course this is my ancestry - my ancestors came from Ireland, England, Scotland and Germany) so maybe people don't know I am a foreigner - but I am. I find the people of places disparaged in our western media ie Africa, South America, Central America, SE Asia, Middle East- are the absolute FRIENDLIEST. Damn, I hate our media sometimes.
11:14 Some non-Muslim don't really mind living near mosque. In fact, some of them like it, especially when Adzan(calling for pray) for morning pray is start. It serve like an alarm clock for them to wake up.
Glad Ken that you are enjoying Malaysia and all the positive things you have said about us. You have been to more places than most of us who called Malaysia home.
Yeah Ken, thank you for the kind words and long praises, you are a decent gentleman, and we welcome people like you with open arms any time, terima kasih!! ✌️
Hello Ken I think you love Malaysia than any country. It's true the people, food, accomodations, transport, places, internet, kindness, exotic fruits/drink, weather and the best/cheap health care in the world. Thank you.
Whenever I travel, when people ask where I came from, and I said I'm from Malaysia, the only reply is, "wow, it's a great country", and I'm like, what so good about Malaysia??" haha, but ya, I'm a proud Malaysian
My favourite part of your travels in Malaysia was when u went to Parit Jerman (German) in Johor. Went back to Germany for a bit in Malaysia 😆. Disclaimer, I'm from johor and from the district where Parit Jerman is at. So that's a memorable thing for me. Huhu
What can I say? I am almost embarrassed with all the compliments. But keeping them coming *LOL*. I lived, worked or visited close to 40 countries. I am probably (definitely?) biased, but I still like where I live here in Malaysia more than anywhere else. Now, I only wish the politicians will get their act together but then, no one on earth can be perfect.
it's thanks to you and the other youtubers who stuck in Malaysia during lockdown, i become to appreciate my country more. I got to know that i still have a lot to explore in my own country. The food, the beautiful places etc. So for me, no travelling to other countries these coming few years. I need to travel around my country first. Honestly, you not only promoting Malaysia to people in another country but to Malaysian as well.
Chiao Ken ! I am former civil pilot, flying longhaul. I agree with you to 100 %, that Malysia is super, and I reccomend persons really to travel there. I and my wife live in the neighbour, Singapore, but weare very very ofthen to KL. Favourite in Malaysia. Well, for me and my wife it is Malacka, and hotel Carlton Elite in K, and the Chineese market Petaling in KL.
All 31 states wow Congrats I like Malaysia too Clean modern fast Internet great food standard of living and quality of life They guard and protect their country They don't want others to come and ruin it It's safe rare to even see security guards 90 days visa free for me And they speak proper English
@@nusyf6462 yeah, but I have met some American from online who don't recognize our English language, they said it's a copycat English, not proper English. While they can't speak so many languages like we are as Malaysian.
@@kenkusagami maybe we're more in british english style compare to them... I don't think so it was a copycat...we also used broken English in conversation sometime but as long as people understand it...it shouldn't be a big problem
I am a Malaysian and my all time favourite is the food, when I think about chilli hot and spicy go for malay food, no spicy either steam or deep fry, go for chinese food, food with tonnes of spices (rempah) go for Indian food, on diet, eat chapati, no fish, no meat, no poultry be vegetarian, eat tonnes of fruits during their season and get sick and lastly "fast/puasa" or eat cream crackers dip in milo when you go broke or waiting for your next pay cheque🙄
In Malaysia, TOLERANCE of cultural diversity and in general……is probably number 1 in the world. It must be natural cultural diversity, fully manifested freely and mutually accepted. There are reasons for that. Good reasons. Dun take it for granted. I am Msian Chinese Christian. The prayers from the mosque i heard everyday since a kid….i feel it like a beautiful part of my homeland. (Banned in some countries.)
i feel you.. it would feel incomplete for me too if i dont hear the lion dance or firecrackers on chinese new year.. every year me and my chinese neighbour exchange food such as oranges, ketupat and rendang..
Don't tell lies 🙄. In Malaysia Buddhist temples and Buddhist people are under threatened. Only some Malaysian Muslims good but in general Buddhism in Malaysia under threatened
@@ven.weerakodiyanenandarath2673 Buddhist temples are everywhere. Malaysia probably has some biggest Buddhist and Hindu temples in Asia ... It is quite common that my Chinese friends, regardless of religion, who lives near kampungs told me their best neighbours are the Malays/Muslims. Hmmm......Ken has been in Msia for over a year, and travelled to practically every state....even more than me. You wanna ask him? Or even better if you go see for urself.
Hi Ken. Oh wow, this video is a super great one. We, Malaysians are truly proud of you, giving such great and good reasons why MALAYSIA is a good place to travel/visit. We really really appreciate your excellent comments...we love you, Ken. I bet you will be visiting Malaysia more often and maybe you will consider Malaysia to be your 2nd home in future. A huge thanks, Ken 🇲🇾 ❤️ YOU !!!
Thank you for your honest review about Malaysian people, food, culture, tourist destinations, language and other. After following your journey since the beginning of pandemic, I learned more about my country from your vlogs. I am honored.
Thank you Ken for complimenting Malaysia..hopefully more visitors will come to Malaysia. Usually foreigners only know Penang and Sabah,Sarawak(Borneo) but not other states. Good job Ken!
Another well presented vlog from you Ken.Some people deserve more than just a 'Thank You' just like you.You certainly deserve a special place in the heart of Malaysia.❤️This country will warmly welcome you back whenever you want to return.Our best wishes to you always!,🇲🇾💕
Your attitude itself make it easier for us to welcome you as our guest of our country. Generally, Malaysians are exceptionally hospitable people, especially to the foreigners. We love to share what we have and to ensure our guests are comfortable and safe here. I hope you will be continued staying here as long as you wish and keep enjoying our country to the fullest.
Hi Ken! Love the contents of your vids. I’m a very proud Malaysian who, unfortunately, lives away from HOME! I can’t wait for the time to move back to Malaysia. After living abroad (Germany) for more than 10 years now, I am still missing Malaysia, hence, my yearly trip home is a must! It has made me realised how fortunate I am to be a Malaysian and to call Malaysia my home. Thank you for sharing your insights of Malaysia to the public at large. Many still are not aware of what and who Malaysia is!
Thanks Ken for bringing up the positive side about Malaysia. I think you forgot to mention about the weather and cost of living in Malaysia. Those 2 reasons were brought up by Japanese you tubers, which I agreed.
Indeed all the points you have mentioned are what made.Malaysia is one of the most visited Countries in the World.I have came accross so many youtubers who visited Malaysia have fall in love with Malaysia after the 1st visit.They will keep on coming back and some even decided to retire in Malaysia.Malaysia is underrated countries for who has never visited Malaysia but will always come back especially for foods,diversities and our friendliness towards foreigners.I remembered your 1st video trapped in Malaysia during the MCO and had followed you until now.We Malaysian love you as well Ken and so Steve,Ivanna,Mike and Gigi as we always feel that you all are one of us..Cheers and stay safe.
Getting close to 100k , Ken!!! Thank You for your kind words on Malaysia 🇲🇾 🙏 👏...how people accept and warmly treat you is a reflection of your embracing them in the first place... Happy Trails, Ken..
my favourite things about malaysia: 1/ people are relatively friendly and kind. 2/ petrol price is cheap, i dont hv to think twice about road trips. 3/ 11 years of fundamental education, free of charge, for everyone. 4/ i dont hv to worry about seasonal clothing cost. T-shirts, shorts/pants and slippers are good enough. 5/ as long as one is willing to work, one wont go hungry, one will have a roof over one's head. 6/ ..... and lots more.. of course, there are plenty of flaws too, but it is ok.. i still love malaysia and proud to be a malaysian.
Wir waren dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal in Malaysia. Ich kann dir zu 100% zustimmen. Es war so schön und wir wollen auf jeden Fall nochmal dorthin. Wir haben bisher nur die Westküste und Penang kennengelernt, aber wir wollen noch die Ostinseln kennenlernen.
Thanks a lot all of you guy sharing Malaysia to the world, Malaysia always is a lovely country, people, food, place, religious and culture.Proud to be Malaysian.
Cheers for this buddy, it's a very good vlog for me as I plan to go and see more of Malaysia next time I go to Thailand. I have been over the border many times for a day to renew my Thailand visa, but I have never travelled the country, which is a bit sad really. Thanks.
Malaysia has a lots of places to visit. This is the most beautiful journey to travel around 13 states. Ken has traveled 13 states of Malaysia. Well done.
Thanks for your kind and sincere words Ken. Sometimes we Malaysians take for granted for the blessings we have here. Thanks again for reminding us. Cheers! ❤
terima kasih ken for a honest review of Malaysia. Please come back to Malaysia again and again... Jumpa lagi. Have a nice trip to the next country.... 🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾
Ken, I would love it if you actually did a comparison video of Malaysia and Thailand with its pros and cons. I have been to Malaysia 5 times and Thailand 4 times; and both countries have so many things to do and explore
Another great video. Thank you for sharing your experience and giving good comment about us in Malaysia. You has make me happy as a Malaysian. Loved it too. Thank you Ken.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
We are so glad to make your stay in Malaysia as fruitful as possible...I am so proud of my fellow Malaysians for respecting and helpful to our tourists...terima kasih Ken
Thank you for choosing Malaysia as a country to visit. May you be happy and safe while you are in Malaysia. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Terima kasih kerana memilih Malaysia sebagai negara untuk dilawati. Semoga bahagia dan selamat selama anda berada di Malaysia.
Ken dear..thanks so much for your beautiful sharing 👍👍.... your explanation makes us realize to always be grateful with our country 💪💪... of course first and foremost... we do love our Malaysian brothers and sisters regardless of race/religion....unity in diversity ❤️❤️👪👭🧑🤝🧑...
I too enjoyed the cultural diversity in Malaysia when we were there a couple months ago. Have you been to Australia yet on your travels? Our politicians here say we are the best country in the world at embracing cultural diversity?
Your top 3 favourite food in Malaysia are considered very well chosen, Ken.. The Kacang Pool and Roti Sarang Burung is very hard to find. To others, if you do find them, please try it.. I really thought Ramli Burgers is in 1 of your top 3 list.. Heehee
During the massive flood mosque or church, opened as relief center and flood victim temporary home regardless of religion. While all volunteers from all kind of races/religion coming together to help... That kind of unity tht we have is priceless
Wow Ken, you’re just a wonderful person. Am sure you speak from your heart.. Am very proud to be a Malaysian .. Please do come back to Malaysia whenever possible ok.. Love your Channel.. God bless you❤️❤️❤️
Glad to see your subscibers have really grown. Hat off to you, Ken, for being a great content creator and you have made such an amazing channel. Your hard work has paid off and is on the road to 100K pretty soon. Bravo and cheers !!!
This content called me to subscribe your channel Mr. Ken. Glad that you love my country and everything you mentioned in this video is true, I’m not bias as a Malaysian from Sabah but I agreed with you. Blessed
I couldn't agree more Ken, your video is so detail about M'sia, you just nailed it. What I love the most about M'sia is the food of course. Char Kuey Teow is one of my favorites as well. Here in US, it cost about 15 bucks for a plate lol yeah, Malaysian food here are expensive.
Thank you, Ken....cause you like Malaysia so much....thank you for not being picky about the food and places you went while you were in Malaysia.....be safe...stay safe...
Hi Ken. Been watching your vlogs since your Day 1 in Malaysia. All your videos are excellent, well explained about everything. Do come yearly with Jetlags warriors and Travel grammers. Keep posting awesome videos. ❤️

@@nusyf6462 yeah, but I have met some American from online who don't recognize our English language, they said it's a copycat English, not proper English. While they can't speak so many languages like we are as Malaysian.
@@kenkusagami maybe we're more in british english style compare to them... I don't think so it was a copycat...we also used broken English in conversation sometime but as long as people understand it...it shouldn't be a big problem
I am a Malaysian and my all time favourite is the food, when I think about chilli hot and spicy go for malay food, no spicy either steam or deep fry, go for chinese food, food with tonnes of spices (rempah) go for Indian food, on diet, eat chapati, no fish, no meat, no poultry be vegetarian, eat tonnes of fruits during their season and get sick and lastly "fast/puasa" or eat cream crackers dip in milo when you go broke or waiting for your next pay cheque🙄
Tourism Malaysia should gift you and Stevana a custom "I've been to all Malaysian states" t-shirt ❤️❤️❤️
Well said, agree and a good idea, Faiz.
My favorite thing about Malaysia is their life and culture
In Malaysia, TOLERANCE of cultural diversity and in general……is probably number 1 in the world. It must be natural cultural diversity, fully manifested freely and mutually accepted. There are reasons for that. Good reasons. Dun take it for granted.
I am Msian Chinese Christian. The prayers from the mosque i heard everyday since a kid….i feel it like a beautiful part of my homeland. (Banned in some countries.)
i feel you.. it would feel incomplete for me too if i dont hear the lion dance or firecrackers on chinese new year.. every year me and my chinese neighbour exchange food such as oranges, ketupat and rendang..
Don't tell lies 🙄. In Malaysia Buddhist temples and Buddhist people are under threatened. Only some Malaysian Muslims good but in general Buddhism in Malaysia under threatened
@@ven.weerakodiyanenandarath2673
Buddhist temples are everywhere. Malaysia probably has some biggest Buddhist and Hindu temples in Asia ...
It is quite common that my Chinese friends, regardless of religion, who lives near kampungs told me their best neighbours are the Malays/Muslims.
Hmmm......Ken has been in Msia for over a year, and travelled to practically every state....even more than me. You wanna ask him? Or even better if you go see for urself.
@@SSxxx18 don't mind him. He is just a Sinhalese Buddhist extremist whose people commit genocide on innocent Tamil and Muslim civilians in Sri Lanka.

Hi Ken. Oh wow, this video is a super great one. We, Malaysians are truly proud of you, giving such great and good reasons why MALAYSIA is a good place to travel/visit. We really really appreciate your excellent comments...we love you, Ken. I bet you will be visiting Malaysia more often and maybe you will consider Malaysia to be your 2nd home in future. A huge thanks, Ken 🇲🇾 ❤️ YOU !!!
Thank you for your honest review about Malaysian people, food, culture, tourist destinations, language and other. After following your journey since the beginning of pandemic, I learned more about my country from your vlogs. I am honored.
Thank you Ken for complimenting Malaysia..hopefully more visitors will come to Malaysia. Usually foreigners only know Penang and Sabah,Sarawak(Borneo) but not other states. Good job Ken!
And KL, and maybe langkawi...
.. and Malacca, and maybe .... so many maybe...
Another well presented vlog from you Ken.Some people deserve more than just a 'Thank You' just like you.You certainly deserve a special place in the heart of Malaysia.❤️This country will warmly welcome you back whenever you want to return.Our best wishes to you always!,🇲🇾💕
Your attitude itself make it easier for us to welcome you as our guest of our country. Generally, Malaysians are exceptionally hospitable people, especially to the foreigners. We love to share what we have and to ensure our guests are comfortable and safe here. I hope you will be continued staying here as long as you wish and keep enjoying our country to the fullest.
Hi Ken! Love the contents of your vids. I’m a very proud Malaysian who, unfortunately, lives away from HOME! I can’t wait for the time to move back to Malaysia. After living abroad (Germany) for more than 10 years now, I am still missing Malaysia, hence, my yearly trip home is a must! It has made me realised how fortunate I am to be a Malaysian and to call Malaysia my home. Thank you for sharing your insights of Malaysia to the public at large. Many still are not aware of what and who Malaysia is!
You are a great Malaysian ambassador, introducing Malaysia to the world. Good job!
As a Malaysian, I love the eternal summer and the long daylight.
As a Singaporean Malay, it makes me smile every time you pronounced Singapore as 'Singapura '😃😃😃.
So thank you. Danke. Terima kasih 😉
...actually Singapore haved 3 names...
1- ...i forget the name..
2- temasik
3- singapura
@@nakamaken7418 The first if I'm not mistaken is Pulau Ujong.
Singapura of course is the modern name.
Yes. Pulau Todak
@@MakKauijo87 Betul. Nama-nama Singapura yang lama orang Melayu Singapura tak gunakan pun.
Ken , you are well received by Malaysian because you integrate and respect local cultures.
Thanks Ken for bringing up the positive side about Malaysia. I think you forgot to mention about the weather and cost of living in Malaysia. Those 2 reasons were brought up by Japanese you tubers, which I agreed.
... actually there are many more from various youtubers and I do not think Ken forgot them... it's just that he wanted to mention the first 7.
This makes me want to just quit my job and be a nomad like you and live in Southeast Asia! Great summary. Very excited for the travel guide!
Indeed all the points you have mentioned are what made.Malaysia is one of the most visited Countries in the World.I have came accross so many youtubers who visited Malaysia have fall in love with Malaysia after the 1st visit.They will keep on coming back and some even decided to retire in Malaysia.Malaysia is underrated countries for who has never visited Malaysia but will always come back especially for foods,diversities and our friendliness towards foreigners.I remembered your 1st video trapped in Malaysia during the MCO and had followed you until now.We Malaysian love you as well Ken and so Steve,Ivanna,Mike and Gigi as we always feel that you all are one of us..Cheers and stay safe.
I like the fact Malaysia is underrated
Thank you for letting azan sound (calling for prayer) playing on your video without cutting it ❤️
I am a proud Malaysian. Reading through all comments below really makes me feel I am blessed to be Malaysian.
Thanks Ken for your good comments and praise of malaysia.stay longer here and enjoy yourself
Getting close to 100k , Ken!!!
Thank You for your kind words on Malaysia 🇲🇾 🙏 👏...how people accept and warmly treat you is a reflection of your embracing them in the first place... Happy Trails, Ken..
What's your favorite thing about Malaysia? Let me know in the comments ⬇
People, food & nature😁
Peaceful. That is a big plus.
my favourite things about malaysia:
1/ people are relatively friendly and kind.
2/ petrol price is cheap, i dont hv to think twice about road trips.
3/ 11 years of fundamental education, free of charge, for everyone.
4/ i dont hv to worry about seasonal clothing cost. T-shirts, shorts/pants and slippers are good enough.
5/ as long as one is willing to work, one wont go hungry, one will have a roof over one's head.
6/ ..... and lots more..
of course, there are plenty of flaws too, but it is ok.. i still love malaysia and proud to be a malaysian.
@@weeeee8232 U nail it.. I love Malaysia because I am Malaysian.
durian
The people of Malaysia! So diverse! Love it!
Wir waren dieses Jahr zum ersten Mal in Malaysia. Ich kann dir zu 100% zustimmen. Es war so schön und wir wollen auf jeden Fall nochmal dorthin. Wir haben bisher nur die Westküste und Penang kennengelernt, aber wir wollen noch die Ostinseln kennenlernen.
Thanks a lot all of you guy sharing Malaysia to the world, Malaysia always is a lovely country, people, food, place, religious and culture.Proud to be Malaysian.
Cheers for this buddy, it's a very good vlog for me as I plan to go and see more of Malaysia next time I go to Thailand. I have been over the border many times for a day to renew my Thailand visa, but I have never travelled the country, which is a bit sad really. Thanks.
Malaysia is the best foodie capital of the world and truly Asia for it! Thanks Ken for promoting our country to the world! 👍🏻 👍🏻 👍🏻
Malaysia has a lots of places to visit. This is the most beautiful journey to travel around 13 states. Ken has traveled 13 states of Malaysia. Well done.
Thanks for your kind and sincere words Ken. Sometimes we Malaysians take for granted for the blessings we have here. Thanks again for reminding us. Cheers! ❤
Thanks for your kind words for Malaysia 🇲🇾….
terima kasih ken for a honest review of Malaysia. Please come back to Malaysia again and again... Jumpa lagi. Have a nice trip to the next country....
🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾🇩🇪🇲🇾
I am traveling to Malaysia this summer! This video makes me even more hyped then i already was. Can't wait to visit this beautiful country! :)
Ken, I would love it if you actually did a comparison video of Malaysia and Thailand with its pros and cons. I have been to Malaysia 5 times and Thailand 4 times; and both countries have so many things to do and explore
Another great video. Thank you for sharing your experience and giving good comment about us in Malaysia. You has make me happy as a Malaysian. Loved it too. Thank you Ken.👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️

Terima kasih kerana memilih Malaysia sebagai negara untuk dilawati. Semoga bahagia dan selamat selama anda berada di Malaysia.
Ken dear..thanks so much for your beautiful sharing 👍👍.... your explanation makes us realize to always be grateful with our country 💪💪... of course first and foremost... we do love our Malaysian brothers and sisters regardless of race/religion....unity in diversity ❤️❤️👪👭🧑🤝🧑...
I too enjoyed the cultural diversity in Malaysia when we were there a couple months ago.
Have you been to Australia yet on your travels?
Our politicians here say we are the best country in the world at embracing cultural diversity?
My favourite is the peaceful and laid back lifestyle here.. Praise be to God
The one and only word about everythingin and about Malaysia is LOVE❤
As a Malaysian, Im so proud and thankful to be born here. Thank you for the great videos and have a pleasant stay !!! :)
Thanks Ken your vlog is full of useful recommendations. I know you'll reach 100, 000 very soon! 😊
So close! 😊
So glad & happy for you. Watching 2 yrs. Your smile is what makes people friendly - it disarms people !
not only truly asia, but also open university for those interested to study about diversities...
Point number 7, true. Malaysian can understand/speaking just a simple English languages very well.
Your top 3 favourite food in Malaysia are considered very well chosen, Ken.. The Kacang Pool and Roti Sarang Burung is very hard to find. To others, if you do find them, please try it.. I really thought Ramli Burgers is in 1 of your top 3 list.. Heehee
During the massive flood mosque or church, opened as relief center and flood victim temporary home regardless of religion. While all volunteers from all kind of races/religion coming together to help... That kind of unity tht we have is priceless
Wow Ken, you’re just a wonderful person. Am sure you speak from your heart.. Am very proud to be a Malaysian .. Please do come back to Malaysia whenever possible ok.. Love your Channel.. God bless you❤️❤️❤️
Glad to see your subscibers have really grown. Hat off to you, Ken, for being a great content creator and you have made such an amazing channel. Your hard work has paid off and is on the road to 100K pretty soon. Bravo and cheers !!!
This content called me to subscribe your channel Mr. Ken. Glad that you love my country and everything you mentioned in this video is true, I’m not bias as a Malaysian from Sabah but I agreed with you. Blessed
Thanks for the great comments about Malaysia. 02:52 Just talking about excellent Malaysian Hospitality and it happens Wow! 👌
Great video! Thanks for promoting Malaysia to the world and also showing Malaysians so many parts of the country that many of us haven't even been to!
I couldn't agree more Ken, your video is so detail about M'sia, you just nailed it. What I love the most about M'sia is the food of course. Char Kuey Teow is one of my favorites as well. Here in US, it cost about 15 bucks for a plate lol yeah, Malaysian food here are expensive.
Thank you, Ken....cause you like Malaysia so much....thank you for not being picky about the food and places you went while you were in Malaysia.....be safe...stay safe...
Ken, ...your attraction is your smile...and you had a unique voice ..😄😂😄
I believe it's not only Malaysia wherever you go people loves you.. 😎🌹
