Went to Penang the local Chinese ( some mixed Portuguese) were extremely nice and welcoming paid 40 cents CND for a big dish of chicken fried rice. Dimsum was about %10 the cost of Canada !
Hubby and I have been talking about leaving the US and plan to make an exploratory trip to Penang for possible retirement. I’ve been to KL once but hubby has never been to Malaysia so I hope we love the country.
Yes, it's a great country, I'm sure your hubby will like it, especially Penang. Here is my Penang vlog, if interested as well. Penang th-cam.com/video/qcQOy7SEAyI/w-d-xo.html
Panang & Melaka are the famous BABA NYONYA sub culture (inter marriage between Chinese merchant +local Malay female during the 1800s), with it's irresistible cuisine, you got great taste :) Those full time rich house wife spend all day perfecting their recipes since then.
Great video with lots of good information. The wife and I are planning to move to KL in about 4 years. I know the MM2H visa is on hold right now while they revamp it. Hopefully it will come back about the same or even better.
the public toilet is Asian's standard, the constant water is not bad since it means that the floor is constantly wash away whatever on it. The equator weather dry up the water easily since all public toilets are well ventilated, it's better than enclose buildings in the west. Traffic jams in KL & Penang can be bad
I'm planning to take semi-retirement at the end of this year and want to spend 3-5 months in KL over winter, however I fear my plans may be scuppered because of covid.
had our honeymoon at KL and Langkawi 10 years ago..as we spent most our time Langkawi would love to back to KL and spend more time exploring there. Love the food!
My experience working in petronas twin towers since the past 10 yrs is that the air got polluted when there were forest fires from indonesia during their burning season.
The air quality, i have to agree with you. But dont forget about the seasonal haze from Indonesia forest fires that impacts Malaysia and Singapore as well.
There's no such thing as a perfect city in this world. Every city in this world has its own uniqueness. It is just the matter of much we appreciate and comfortable with the uniquness. Plus, how much we can tolerate with the things that we are not comfortable with. If the scores for these two is high enough for us, we can stay in the city for as long as we wanted.
I feel so bad that the worsening air quality is actually not the fault of the Malaysians* themselves but due to the irresponsible land-clearing smoke pollution drifting over from Indonesia. *applies to the Singaporeans as well
i wish my grandfather were to choose to malaysia as our homeland when singapore and malaysia went into separation back in 1965. singapore has no life at all. practically work till death and pay the blood sucking government back. to much of unhappiness to list down.
Theres no more MM2H. Besides driving in kl is a nightmare if you are foriegner. Even with google map. I would prefer melaka, penang, ipoh, johor baru for retirement.
If i am retiring, important factor for me are greeneries, clean and serene environment, not overly developped, nice people and most importantly food. I am not after the huge shopping complexes, all the high rise buildings, congested roads and 'kiasu' and self centered society. KL is closing towards that or maybe already is.
No need to retire in KL...we have enough foreigner here...white people...tanned people..chinese people...japan people...even some latino also choosing to retire here...better retire in other parts of Malaysia like Ipoh , Taiping, Beaufort, Miri, Georgetown, Seremban, Kuala Terengganu...
Mostly well done video. A few points that he was off on though -- the infrastructure isnt quiet as good as hes making it out. Its better than poorer countries like thailand, philippines, vietnam etc but it is still NOT up to the US, singapore, western europe etc standards. I would consider the infrastructure above average but definitely not great yet.. Also i wouldnt call the weather great what so ever. The place is extremely hot, humid and much rainier than hes making it out to be. Flooding is common. Also for single people dating isnt a good as the rest of SE asia. The women are more insular, clannish and religious. Other than that good video
Nah Traffic is Horrendous esp peak hour Corruption, CORRUPTION Unbelievable n so Crime is high. Priced ain't Cheap no more Many many better City to Retire in.
For those who intended to live in malaysia,i would just like you guys to think that "cheap" expenses for you guys is equal to expensive things for local,i am speaking with bali issue in mind,the prices of health care,groceries and even land plot there had been very expensive to the locals because of foreigners who take advantage of their higher valued currency,and i dont want it to happend to my beloved country,so please be proud of where you live,and just stay there
What does it cost for an expat to buy health insurance in Malaysia? Are there good, inexpensive, choices since the medical costs are much cheaper than the U.S.?
Former French colony (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia), good food. Former British colony(Malaysia), awful food. Follow that rule of thumb and you won't go far wrong. Hint: Penang is largely run by Chinese. Jack, the Japan Alps Brit
Can't retire in Malaysia, they ceased MM2H , no news on when will be offered again. Big mistake by Gov. All the expat money will go to Thailand, Mexico
I hate to be negative but it's a Muslim country and Arab jihad's have lived there. KL is a great city but you just never know when something nasty happens.
Sorry we are not arabs. We are multi ethnics here. Multi culture and multi religious. What happen in middle east, no need to apply it in Malaysia. We are different than any muslim countries in middle east/west asia. We don't have such stupid thing so called jihad or terrorist. Before blaming other just because of muslim population in the country,, better to check your facts first before judge. No need to spread hate or give over-negative comments just to make other people hurts.
High Crime infested country. Looks nice, but robbery and home invasion mugging is common in Malaysia. I do agree that its a beautiful country, but dangerous for expats to live like in any other developing nation.
@@forevergraceful6160 Truth hurts, huh. If you're straight out of UK, perhaps Malaysian food is acceptable. But after 36 years of Japanese food ... Jack the Japan Alps Brit
Everyone please dont get mad. There is no need to argue with him. These foreigner can use google and search themself how malaysian food rank are. Dont waste your time with this kind of narrow minded human. Just let the people who wanna come do the research themself. Beside, this is just 1 hate comment. I think i know where this guy from. Just ignore him.

consider east coast Malaysia, more nature, beach and cheaper. Penang , KL are over populated, traffic jams

Go for Malaysia Sarawak state MM2H visa, easier to qualify, and can still live in KL or Penang.
Not walkable its true but when u want to cross the road just use the power of hand. ✋🏻
"Talk to the hand!" 😆
hahaha
Penang and Melaka is very close this fabulous capital. I love the food.

I can think of 20 pros for KL and Malaysia. And only 2 cons (Really hot + traffic).
💯💯💯💯👍
Traffic jam is common in all capital city in most countries but here during peak hours only
the public toilet is Asian's standard, the constant water is not bad since it means that the floor is constantly wash away whatever on it. The equator weather dry up the water easily since all public toilets are well ventilated, it's better than enclose buildings in the west. Traffic jams in KL & Penang can be bad
your voice is soothing
RIP Ronin Blue... You're in the best place now.
I wish to retire in KL👍😇❤️🇧🇩
I enjoy all of your videos and the information your present.
Well explained!...
I'm liking this a lot.
I'm planning to take semi-retirement at the end of this year and want to spend 3-5 months in KL over winter, however I fear my plans may be scuppered because of covid.
i may go to KL again but if i had alot of money..
if u in budget,live outskirt of kl so cost little bit low.find condo near lrt.
Awesome video!
I saw several of my stock footage time lapse from KL. Always interesting where my stock footage ends up being used.
Thank you!
This is heaven.

incredibly helpful video-thank you!
had our honeymoon at KL and Langkawi 10 years ago..as we spent most our time Langkawi would love to back to KL and spend more time exploring there. Love the food!

Is not those tin miners founded KL... Its already part of Selangor state.
Some more KL opened by Sultan Puasa from Johor Riau empires
More to share about malasiya...soon will went out their..
sarawak mm2h is still open during this pandemic. Sarawak manages immigration independently
This was an outstanding tour, I felt I was immersed into KL ty so much, bravo! 👏
My experience working in petronas twin towers since the past 10 yrs is that the air got polluted when there were forest fires from indonesia during their burning season.
Hello Kara, How are you? Are you Malay or Chinese? I am willing to move to KL for a business purpose.. Could you please guide me as a friend.?
@@learn_networking1 so sad she doesn't reply you🤣
@@farisruzaimi5353 No problem... 😉
💯💯💯💯👍
The burning session from Indonesia is seasonal (their country need to do something on it) and not stay long
great video was that young chou in your video lol
Maybe, haha.
The air quality, i have to agree with you. But dont forget about the seasonal haze from Indonesia forest fires that impacts Malaysia and Singapore as well.
But Malaysia air pollution index... Is more cleaner than Thailand!...
@@daddykarl3312 agree. The haze is due to burning of estates in kalimantan or Sumatra.
Can’t wait 😛
That mall at 10:37 is at Kota Kinabalu Sabah...😂
Yes, I know! Haha.. KK vlog coming in two weeks.

malaysia used to be good for living 15 years ago but when it comes to these days its not as its used to be. life changed.

Where got poor air quality for the past year? I'm staying in KL and the sky is clear all this while
i wish my grandfather were to choose to malaysia as our homeland when singapore and malaysia went into separation back in 1965. singapore has no life at all. practically work till death and pay the blood sucking government back. to much of unhappiness to list down.
Same here in china , they follow you around the store.
"Not that walkable" ,thats not good ,I love walking .also all about visa requirements..
The best city on the planet.
Sabah n sarawak rich with unique flora and fauna
@@danishiqbal3241 Yes I can imagine...havn't been to those places but would love it for sure.
Nice picture of London at 1.37 😂
I'm giving Malaysia and KL a look only because I cannot afford Singapore.
Theres no more MM2H. Besides driving in kl is a nightmare if you are foriegner. Even with google map.
I would prefer melaka, penang, ipoh, johor baru for retirement.
Nasi lemak is Malaysia national dish
I wonder if you can apply for retirement visa from thailand and malaysia at the same time and just do 6 months each year between the 2 countries....
Good choice and selection because kl to any cities in thailand not far away very easy access by flight train and bus
If i am retiring, important factor for me are greeneries, clean and serene environment, not overly developped, nice people and most importantly food. I am not after the huge shopping complexes, all the high rise buildings, congested roads and 'kiasu' and self centered society. KL is closing towards that or maybe already is.
Try Ipoh then.

No need to retire in KL...we have enough foreigner here...white people...tanned people..chinese people...japan people...even some latino also choosing to retire here...better retire in other parts of Malaysia like Ipoh , Taiping, Beaufort, Miri, Georgetown, Seremban, Kuala Terengganu...
Love Malaysia 🇲🇾👍💚✌️
I hope to be there in the next 2 years for retirement.
💯💯💯💯👍
Need some more correct history.....totally wrong about KL origin name came from Malay bisnes man..Long Jaafar...before colonise by British
For less money, go where you are treated best. Why not?

Every thing is good except some Indian ppl and some of the Malaysians original ppl are very aggressive with foreigners

“Expats” a term used by brits so they don’t refer to themselves as immigrants..
