Kampung Baru played a significant role in the history of Malaysia. It's also one of the few bastion of authentic Malay life and culture right smack in the wilderness of the city. Our government before this have tried to buy over the land there for development but inhabitants stuck to their guns. Many people living there are actually millionaires ten times over 😊
Actually Wayne. Just like most other places in KL, Kampung Baru becomes much more alive during the nights. Extremely busy I would say, it even gets a lot of traffic jams especially during weekends. There are also lots of pretty colorful lights during the night.
Good one Wayne, I much enjoyed Kampung Baru walkabout and it does provide a sense of what I remember of what much of the areas around K.L. when I first went there almost 40 years ago. Good to see people are just a hospitable as decades ago. Also a bit like what you will find in much of Malaysia outside of K.L. still today. And if you found KB, attractive, I'd say check out the the suburbs outside of Georgetown in Penang. Back in time when I was working for BP and traveling around the world, my take for the most livable places in Asia and were: Fukuoka Japan, Penang, Chaing Mai and K.L., and I'd say today all are much more attractive today.
@@WalkAboutWayne And rational, kind and hospitable, some of my truest and best loved friends were in Malaysia. The mum with her kid at the Mosque saying hello and waving brought back memories, and I don't there's much of a reason to be shy about dropping in a mosque and asking if you can film and chat. I was thinking about back in the late 80's the billionaire owner of construction and drilling company I was working for needed a representative in Malaysia and said if I could set up a Malaysian company and secure some contracts I could do very well profit wise but the Bumiputra laws would pretty much restrict me from that business unless I was Muslim. My Christian Chinese GF was a banker and her best friend a lawyer, and they seriously suggested that if I joined a mosque and changed my name to Bin Muhammad and made some Muslim business friends it could be possible to set up that business. I gave it a bit of consideration and dropped by a Mosque and they set up an appointment with one of their members who was an attorney and I was surprised how open, inviting they were about discussing the business aspects. My impression was that if you were a Non-Malay and Non-Muslim in a jam and needed some help, if you dropped by a Malay Mosque they would be happy to help. Don't know if that might hold an Indian or Pakistani Mosque but I'd pretty much expect it with the Malays.
Kampung Baru is popular Malay hotspot in KL it become more alive in evening n night. You can stay at area around KLCC n walk to Kampung Baru through the beautiful Saloma Bridge. I've watched video a couple from Sweden rent an apartment/hotel near Saloma Bridge n the view from their window is very beautiful at night 🌃
hi wayne. That's quite a distance you walk..😅. The market is actually Chow Kit market. Lots of small stalls selling snacks, canai, cendol..... For nasi lemak, different shops or stall has their own take on it. Like the ramly burgers, some places its great but some are not. Keep exploring. Take care.
Another good video; thank you for sharing the adventure. I enjoy older quiet, fairly clean and well-maintained neighborhoods too. Continue your travel series videos; informative to the benefit of people who have not traveled there or know of those destination points. Traffic doesn't appear to be too bad either. Like the street market as well. Don't need a refrigerator when you can go to a street market and shop for each meal. Fresh as fresh can be! Good looking quality of vegetables and meat products. Where are all the "soi" dogs and cats? Hahahahahahaha
Yes I like those suburbs just on the doorstep of the bustling city and its awesome skyline. The market superb and so many friendly Wayne Rooney adorers. Food so cheap. What a Bobby Dazzler. Cheers Wayne 🍻
Thanks for the trip down memory lane Wayne. (was there in ’80 as a teenager) Great to see the people are just as friendly! Like yourself I had a recognizable namesake which worked to my benefit who starred in the most famous Kung Fu movie of the time. By the way if you’re still kickin about in Malaysia, I would most definitely recommend Penang (Georgetown specifically) Cheers
Nice area and nice people. Reminds me a little of Chiang Mai. I’d love to spend some time there. BTW, how did you like the Fury vs Usyk fight? I rank it right up there with some of the all time best (Hearns vs Hagler, Ali vs Frazier, Foreman vs Lyle, etc). Take it easy, Wayne!
It does feel a bit like Chiang Mai mate. Loved the fight, I was jumping around all over the place. It really was a classic. Usyk is unreal, what he has done in a short amount of time is incredible. Such a size difference also. Fury's punch resistance has started to go. It was a Bobby Dazzler of a fight.
Wow Wayne I never new the food in Malaysia was as good as Thai I don’t rate the Filipino food much but it looks good Wayne long tong Wayne it’s good you try different foods Tyson lost last night Wayne but John fury has been acted like lob wow same prices as Thailand Amazing
Having lived in both places I preferred eating in Thailand as being more geared for tourists I could get more variety. I love Malaysia and would leave the U.S. ASAP for it if not sort of trapped here, but the heat and food were the biggest long-term challenges for me in Malaysia. Some Malay dishes I could eat all the time but a lot of the regular Malay, Chinese and Indian fare is pretty heavy, fatty and VERY Salty, and it used to be hard to find Chinese food that was not saturated with MSG and palm or cheap cooking oil. In Thailand, Japan or Mexico I never really craved western food (I don't crave it in the U.S. or the U.K. either) but in Malaysia I often dreamed of an American burger, Salad bar, Italian food, tacos, Fish and Chips, Roast Beef or turkey and mashed potatoes. I also found it rare in Malaysia to find a Thai, Japanese or European/American, Chinese food that was that westerners would enjoy, except for High Tea and DimSum. Seems choices in places like K.L and Penang are much better today than even 12 years ago so maybe not an issue now.
I would say more variety in Malaysia, with so many food influences. It just seems like different food everywhere. I do prefer Thailand though, I guess it's just what I'm use too. Yes, great fight this morning, loved it.
@@WalkAboutWayne I used to love going for High-Tea in Malaysia as it was more a desert buffet.

Look forward to watching more vlogs once you return to Thailand or visit Vietnam and Philippines. For some reason no other SE Asian countries appeal to me.
Great vlog, why not make the move there mate? A nice place with friendly people around. No corrupt police trying to rip you off, no taxi mafia, no dirty h00kers, no cannabis shit or yaba dealers, no drunk people and much more... Do it man. You are in a better place.
BKK also for "development," I hate that word . Destroying what the visitors travel to see. Anyway, not sure if the other KL vds . cover these neighborhoods. I also like the quiet. We have those boom boxes around here Makes me crazy. Another reason to get out and travel.

Nice one Nick, welcome to the channel. Yes, so much food choice here. Food heaven.
Plenty of tasty food for you there mate. Good to get away from skyscrapers & find traditional areas to roam around👍
Food heaven mate! Yes, this is my sort of area.
These are the type of videos I love. Seeing how the average person lives, great stuff Wayne!
Cheers Jeff, I'm happiest in amongst the local people, that's what I love more than doing tourists stuff. I had a great day.
We rate this gentleman. Salaams & Salutes from.bonny bonny Scotland. M brought us here😊❤
Nice one! Big ups Scotland.
Kampung Baru is worth billions.
Nice! It's a great place and hope it stays that way.

Thanks mate 👍
Wow, what a surprise that was cheers
Nice one 👍
That uncle walking around with a bag of drink. True malaysian
I didn’t see that, I’ll have to look again .
What a wonderful exploration in Kampung Baru, KL.
Great day out, I really like this area.
@@WalkAboutWayne Wonderful. 😀
A groovy area 👌 - like the Old charm - so close to the city - endless food - Thanks Rooney 🤩👍✔️👌🙏
😂. Cheers Ant mate .
Love your videos mate. I was in kl in in April and thinking of going back in October. Got so much food places still yet to visit.
Thanks buddy! Yes, the food options here are just endless.
@@WalkAboutWaynemy brother lives there and took me to Sri petaling just on the edge of the city. Amazing place with restaurants and bars.
Malaysia looks great. I heard the government is very accmmodation to the expat community as well.
Yes, seems a lot easier to stay in Malaysia and not so many hoops to jump through.
Loved the fresh and wet markets, and all the places to eat. So many choices
It was great to walk through the markets, love meeting the market people. Cheers mate.
Try venturing into the suburbs, Petaling Jaya (PJ), Subang Jaya, etc
Already have buddy 👍
Nice one bert
Nice one Ernie

Yes mate, I'm knackered from walking in Kuala Lumpur. Some amazing food around, I want to eat it all. Thank you.
Mate I’ve touched down in Chiangmai and you’re not here 😱😱
Enjoy KL mate 👍👍
Have a good one in Chiang Mai buddy!
Interesting to see what is outside of the city.
It's not far from the main center, but the feel of the place is a world away. Thanks.
Around the city , Taman Berkeley ( bak kut teh) , Pandan Jaya , Bangsar and Damansara Heights , Sri Kembangan.
My favorite thing about Kuala Lumpur is no stray dogs everywhere !!!!!
I was thinking about that a few days ago. I don’t think I’ve seen 1 dog since I’ve been here .

Many many thanks

Wish I had Wayne Rooney's money 🤣. Bobby Dazzler mate.
Nice area and nice people. Reminds me a little of Chiang Mai. I’d love to spend some time there.
BTW, how did you like the Fury vs Usyk fight? I rank it right up there with some of the all time best (Hearns vs Hagler, Ali vs Frazier, Foreman vs Lyle, etc). Take it easy, Wayne!
I read about the fight and it absolutely sounded like a real banger. Fury lost it at the end, good to hear of intteresting heavyweight bouts.
It does feel a bit like Chiang Mai mate. Loved the fight, I was jumping around all over the place. It really was a classic. Usyk is unreal, what he has done in a short amount of time is incredible.

kampong baru land is a very expensive land area..
the malays 😂like to preserved it that way..
Good, glad to hear it 👍
I saw a Palestine flag at 25 minutes in, good stuff Malaysia!
I didn't see that.
@@WalkAboutWayne it's a very pro Palestine country same as Indonesia, Thailand not so much apart from the south which is mainly Muslims.
The majority of Thai people wouldn't even know where Palestine was.
I found the humidity in Malaysia to be tough for me, how would you compare it to Chaing Mai?
Yes mate, the humidity is on another level. My next video talks about comparing and if I could swap Malaysia for Thailand

You never know in the future mate. Thailand is my base though, nothing beats it IMO.
Paddy posted a vid of canal village right outside bangcok yday. Was awesome place, u should go
I’m not in Bangkok buddy .
I meant when you go back. Lol
every body smokes, because they are indonesians. they smokes while handling food. malaysians smoke too but not as much
Yes. A lot of smokers in Kuala Lumpur .
@@WalkAboutWayne i'm sure that area is a no smoking zone. they can get fined rm300 by the authority.

Loads of other vlogs on this area. I much prefer the areas like this .
I heard many indonesians there now. Whether legal or illegal i am unsure.
Seems to be many different people here.
@@WalkAboutWayne arabs or pakistanis.
Kampung Bahru is better than Jalan Alor to find original local food.. Jalan Alor is kinda overrated and more in to touristy food place.
Yes, I think I would much prefer being in Kampung Baru.
Lol what are the chances that you meet Harry McGuires only fan and that too in KL ?!?
That’s what I thought 😂. There’s not even anyone in England who likes Harry Maguire 😂😂😂
