- I finally had a chance to explore one of the most interesting neighborhoods in Kuala Lumpur - Kampung Bahru. My goal was to make an architectural shot of the cityscape showing the old and the new, instead I made an environmental portrait of a little girl in the hood. Here's how it unfolded...

Man, this is very inspiring for me! The way you connect with people is so natural... It´s not all about Camera settings, it´s all about the whole meaning of a picture and a story. Congratulations Pete !!!
That's great to hear Julien! The people here in Malaysia are super kind. That makes it much easier to connect. Thanks for your comment.
Kampung Bahru, one of the last Malay village enclaves in KL, underated as a place to visit in KL with an amazing history
I definitely agree!
Kampung baru is one of the largest malay settlements in KL. They have a lot of delicious eateries and old malay wooden house. Actually there are many malay settlements in KL but many was take over by the government and their house is replaced with apartments and condominiums depending on which area.
I tried to find some good restaurants there but didn't have time. Next trip. Thanks for your comment Amir.
This is quality content! I might be biased being a malaysian and all, but I do like how you speak and interact with the local. I also like very much the tone of the video, very relaxing and laid back.
And the picture speaks a thousand words. Sakinah hugging the 'pillar' of the house (sorry I can't think of another word of the thing she was hugging) and the Twin Tower shining brightly in the background. It is a very beautiful picture indeed. I love it!
Thank you Adi! I really enjoyed creating it. Malaysia is a wonderful place.
Pete, what a great video. You truly captined the spirit of Malaysia and the warmth of the Malay people. I spent many years in KL as a staff of Malaysia Airlines and
Kampung Baru was the view from my 30th floor window of my condo. It was amazing to see this modern vibrant city and a traditional Malay Kampung right in the middle of it.
Malaysia is one of the greatest places on earth and I miss it very much. Greetings from Seattle. :):)
Hi Anna, thanks for your comment and kind words. Malaysia is surely a special place!
on 10:56, thats my family (with few generations) house. currently, my mum lives there from birth till today. proud to be staying in Kg Baru though
No way. That's amazing. It's a beautiful spot. Thank you for sharing!
Kampung baru is the last Malay Villages or Malay rural community in Kuala Lumpur sir. Have fun there.
If you want to see more fun i recommend you to visit Kampung Morten in Melaka. Nearby the Melaka Riverbank. A Traditional Village in the middle of city.
Cheers.
Thank you for the tip. I will check that out. Haven't been to Malaka yet.
welcome to my village kg baru , this is where you can find variety of malay foods
Thank you. It's a wonderful place.
Org kg bahru tak de buat bnb or homestay ke..??
this is wonderful...
Great..
Thankyou for video.. kampung baru, kuala lumpur
Really missed your amazing videos, Pete! Excellent job as always!
Hey, thanks for the encouraging words Karl!
Great photo
Best nya
nice video Pete welcome to KL!
A really rare tourist video. Thanks for sharing
I heard the Australia national anthem at 6:43 from the television. Surprisingly it could be during the commonwealth game in Gold Coast 2018
Best place to eat. Miss this place so much 😄
How cool it must be to meet and talk to the people in these 'foreign' lands. They share some things we do, but, it isn't always as we remember them. Like the music. It's cool to see this!
I have a friend who lived in India for 20 years. I can listen to her stories all day!
Yes, it's always interesting to see another perspective.
Amaizing video
Rad Pete! hillarious. Keep Vlogging brotha'
Cheers bro!
The Malays are very friendly, they can just invite you to their house.
Btw, the government has been trying very hard for a long time to acquire the lands to develop the place but the Malays there opposed it. They want to retain the last Malay village in KL.
I agree. Hopefully that neighborhood will be preserved.
Really thank you Pete and i appreciate your efforts, it has been long time of completing video about Kuala Lumpur until the end because almost all of them have the same content, but you went out of the box
Thanks again..
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Mohammed. Thanks for the kind words.
I just hope this place will be preserved as long as it can be...😔
I love the photo with the childrn... d u have flickr / any photo online...
Hi Ana. Yes, you can find me on Instagram: @petedemarco or Facebook: facebook.com/PeteDeMarcoPhotography/. I'm also on Flickr under my name but haven't used it in years.
Pete DeMarco thanks Sir.
Love Kg Baru & save it!
#selamatkankampungbaru
the clip when those boys sharing popsicle is touching my heart 😘😊
save kampung baru.... tradisional rare
Keyword,Work hard&honesty. Nice vid
Yes, he speaks the truth.
Go to Masjid Jamek River Front at night and shoot the Blue River.
Thank you for the tip Larry.
Why would you waste money at Bukit Bintang when you can totally appreciate the blend of traditional and modern architecture in Kampung Baru? 😍
That's an awesome photo! I really like the contrast and having the little girl in that shot gives 'life' to the photo.
Thank you. I thought the same thing as soon as she jumped in the shot.
I liked it a lot thanks for the video 👍👍
Thanks J! :-)
10:44 the house has been in the movie if i'm not mistaken... more than once the house show up in film... this house must be famous with the twin tower back ground...
Oh, I didn't know that. It's the perfect scene of old and new in KL.
yup very famous...
i see this video after get a news Goverment want buy this village and Build the new city. he said this village embarrassing to be seen by tourists.
That's very sad. I always recommend it as one of the most original neighborhoods to visit in both Malaysia and Asia.
huh
Khalid Samad, letak jawatan! 😡
the background music u used in this video is so calm and relaxing. can i know the title of the music? the guitar strumming is so beautiful and it matches every footage in your video. love from malaysia 😍
Save Kampung Baru.
🇲🇾malaysia tanah airku
i like how you shot. the picture look very human. if u get what i mean.
🌺🌺🌺
To all KAMPUNG BARU PEOPLE
Whatever happened please dont sell the land to developer... Keep as legacy of "KAMPUNG" middle of KL, the GOV should help these people on funds raising the beautiful of kampung, not with mall or hi-resident building and local people can't afford to stay if that happened :(
My home
Where can i get the photo sir?
Very interesting interview man... is it random or planned?
Damn nice photo i must say... your vlog style is very nice
Hey, thanks man. It was totally random. I was just peering into his yard to look at the house. Then he called me over.
hey.. i recognize this legend.. reduan isnt it? 💪💪💪
That's him. He is definitely a legend!
Reduan itu jiran hang ke? 👍
Land value know is RM7 billion
That random meeting at @2:10 was simply amazing friendliness!!
Yes, that is the people of Malaysia. I was just peering into his house when he spotted me and called me over.
Sempat lagi dgr budak jatuh basikal mencarut
Back to making videos eh
Been coming back for 11 years now hermano. LOL.
yeah but i mean your last youtube video was 3 months ago no? :)
Right. I average a video every 3-6 months I think. For whatever reason I start and then stop soon after.
'Politic is money
In politics u make money
Money is Power'
emmm...clearly their attitude
their sacred direction
Someone once said "If you happen to meet Khalid Samad outside of Kampung Baru, just spit on his face a lot of times!"
They are rich ...the area worth 2.2 billion for developer
Selamat kn lh kg baru jangan Di jual
So respectfully. they kiss ur hand.
Let Kampung Baru be, they want to build skyscrapers on it. Isnt it unique to have city and village merged together. Kemon ah
If only Tunku Abdul Rahman is still alive, he would've been angrier than The Incredible Hulk because he hates seeing a single high-rise building, let alone hundreds of mega-tall skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur...
