Hari Kebangsaan 2022 -- Kuala Lumpur's Streets are Filled on Malaysia's Merdeka Day!

  • 210 | As a follow-up to my video about the Merdeka Day preparations I went down towards Dataran Merdeka today (31 August 2022) to see what a Malaysian National Day is all about. I was not prepared for the crowds in the center of town. It was something I had never seen before. I never did get near Dataran Merdeka or many other places close to it either. But what an experience! As I mentioned in one of the comments I think this will probably be my most memorable moment in Malaysia.
    And for anyone keeping track, Malaysian Media Superstar Grace HR Leng did make it back to her house without incident.

    i discovered your channel to find out how was the crowd this morning. My children and I stayed at the hotel in Jalan Sultan Ismail with the plan to take LRT until Masjid Jamek. However after walking a whole day a day before that, we decided to snuggle ourselves in bed and watched over the television. We made a wise decision.

      @@whoshere767 No question about that. I felt the excitement of the crowd while I was there. It will probably be one of my most memorable moments in Malaysia. The press said there were 100,000 people there. This is wrong. Maybe there were that many at Dataran Merdeka but downtown there had to be AT LEAST a million people. When the LRT usage is examined for yesterday I think I will be proved right even though that represents only one way people arrived at the event. It was amazing!

    We all expect to be crowded but on 31st August on early morning it was way more crowded than every morning rush hour time.
    Masjid jamek and Bandaraya lrt station have to be closed because of no more room left to disembark.
    I guess that what we get for not celebrate normal Merdeka day for 2 years. Show that even with all the hassle this country gone through for the past 2 years the National spirit still strong in us.
    Luckly I got off at Sultan Ismail lrt station, its crowd is still building up. Its where the parade finished and seperate the marching went to the right and the vehicle went left. Get to see the parade until the end.
    Still enjoying it. 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

    Perbedaan menyambut kemerdekaan di Malaysia dan di Indonesia .
    Malaysia : saat malam menjelang hari kemerdekaan semua berkumpul di pusat kota KL atau di lapangan merdeka
    Paginya mereka juga berkumpul di pusat kota untuk menyaksikan pareda atau penaikan bendera Malaysia
    Oia Malaysia itu merayakan kemerdekaan itu 2 kali
    Indonesia : 1 Agustus seluruh warga Indonesia sudah pasang bendera di setiap kampung2 , malam kemerdekan mengadakan yg di kenal "sedekah bumi" tanda syukur kita kepada sang pencipta atas kemerdekan ini dan tanda terima kasih kepada pahlawan , paginya menaikan bendera di istana , memang tak semeriah di pusat kota di KL , karna setiap kampung di Jakarta khususnya sudah mengadakan acara sendiri ,
