Well it's a good way when they say cheap so more tourist come in to our country but still for us who struggling , everyday basic necessities..mau makan kit kat ice cream also need to think twice before touching it 😢😢...diaaaaa pulak cakap cheapppppp :/

    Actually Phuket used to be part of the Malay Kingdom during Malacca sultanate.. until Phuket and the rest of the islands including Langkawi was invaded by the Siamese. Later, it was gazetted by Thailand as part of Siam Kingdom. The Thais were notoriously known to commit genocide and wage war against the Malays back then. For me, I'll always remember what the Thais and Siamese did to my ancestors historically back then, because my family is from southern Thai province.

    Really good interviews. By the way, don't worry about the Tourist Police as they are just making sure that you are not conducting anything negative. Before and slightly after the Covid era, there were instances where there'd be groups of people in various locations in the city scamming the public of bogus job offers which could have led to human trafficking.

    I also aware in other videos the he noticed many of people (if not the most) u saw in KL city isn’t local or natives, many of them are foreigners/hard labour, like workers at mamak, supermarkets, restaurants even fnb and retailing also started to dominated by immigrant so people tend to get confused they are dealing with locals instead of immigrants workers.
    And most of them live in dorms that located in KL city, that’s why u will find comments from the locals/ tourists that KL are full with immigrants instead of locals.

    Any foreign broadcast company requires an authorisation to film/record in Malaysia (many other countries have the rule as well). When they see a white man with a mic in public, authorities will get suspicious 😅. Youtubing/vlogging is still quite new, there's no clear regulations on it yet(not that I know). Besides KLCC park is privately owned property made open to public. So maybe the security been noticing you and send the tourist police.

      Cheap is a subjective term, so if someone else thinks it's cheap here, you can't really argue against it. To some it may be cheap and to some it may be affordable.

      A place can be cheap for one person and not cheap for someone else, it's completely subjective. Just because it's not cheap for you doesn't mean some others don't think so. For me it's not cheap, because I don't earn very much money, but to those I interviewed clearly they have a different perspective and situation, so to them it is cheap.
