The Security Guard that gave Mario gas for the bike is a classic example of Malaysian kindness n sincerity. And he refused money as a token of appreciation from Mario by putting it back on the bike. What a sincere guy. He spoke good English which is v commendable; he is in a rural town in Perak where English is probably rarely spoken. Speaking of English, it is interesting to note that Olivia pronounced the Hotel as S M Zee instead of S M Zed, considering the fact that Olivia is from England n not America.
If we look at various vlog from other TH-camrs like Ken Abraod, Veggies on Tour, Jetleg Warrior (to name a few), they never had any problem communicating with local in English at any place and time throughout east coast and rural areas. Despite of negative perspective from others especially from west malaysians , east coast people proven to be most kindness of all malaysians.
very kind pak cik.. he must be very educated too coz speak english really well!!!
What a nice cafe😂 enjoy your ride..
Shown that many of malaysian Malays was educated
Yeay....The guard impressed me a lot..❤
Masuk kelantan dia guna background musik gesekan rebab...sy sgt respek sama lu bohh✌️
kepada pengawal keselamatan tu kalau sapa2 yang kenal ucapkan tahniah kepada dia. dia menunjukkan yang rakyat malaysia ni suka membantu orang lain dalam kesusahan. tak kira bangsa apa.
Salute to the security guard❤❤
The most adventurous TH-cam couple ever going around Malaysia.
And yes there are wild elephants on that route.
We malaysian are thought to always help the “musafir” or in english raughly translated as the travellers..or those on the road.
His act of kindness is not unexpected in malaysia..❤
The security guard is the gem 💎 of Malaysia 🇲🇾.
Pak guard yang baik hati. Semoga makhluk2 Allah dilindungi
Good example of Malaysia kindness showing by pakcik security guard..hat off to you pakcik..❤️❤️
terima kasih abang guard yg baik
It's legit wild elephants roaming there. Usually come out at night or before sunrise. Hence lots of elephants poo on road or near the edges. Also lots of wild animals such as tapir , black panther , boar , pangolin sometimes will cross the road at that time
Malaysian hospitality is always on the top 😍
salute that security officer..so well hearted
Thumbs up to Rosli for helping n showing hospitality 👍. Yes Mario, its wild elephants, sometimes they appeared on the road, highways. In 2022, there's a British couples encountered a group of wild elephants while driving at East coast highways, they were so ecstatic n posted their experience here on TH-cam.
9:30 nice malaysian hospitality brother!
The music at the end is really WOW. That is so kelantanese..
From Changlun to Grik the rural road is quite sparsely populated which is why there were not many traffic.. also most travellers choose to use the highway. but the east -west road despite being remote and in the middle of jungle, is the main thoroughfare from Eastern states to Northern states. thus the heavy traffic. It is quite easy to see elephants at night but more dangerous. Take your time guys.. Kelantan and Terengganu still has a rich Malay culture and you wont see it anywhere else in Malaysia. Life is so laidback and you can get lost in time there.. but still have all the luxuries of a modern world
Malaysia is one of the safest countries for tourists, especially those with families.
Tabik n repsct.Pak.Guard.yg.menolomg.pasamgan ni. Andalah bagaikan duta.disana
Bangga sbg rakyat.Malaysia.🎉
Berbuat baiklah walau dimana anda berada!👍
sungguh baik,ramah dn membantu abg guard di resort ROYAL BLUM ni...semuga jasa mu..di hargai....
Man only in Malaysia where in the middle of nowhere someone helps you out and you offer to pay them, and they say I don’t need money don’t pay. ONLY IN MALAYSIA MAY GOD BLESS MALAY PEOPLE!!!!!
Not only in malaysia la, c'mon la jangan bagi malu la komen macam ni, pegi jalan2 ke luar negara sana sini baru mata dan minda boleh bukak luas sikit hadoi la 🤦♂️
@@jonmath4182 ko diam. jangan buat malu orang Melayu
Kau bg la negara mana yg sama dgn Malaysia?@@jonmath4182
@@syafiqsuzuki375 Truth is normally unpleasant and bitter. Are Malaysians different from Malays? Come to East Malaysia and learn about respecting humans.
@@sassdcc8692 beza banyak kot. Aku dah banyak kali dtg Sabah Sarawak. No thanks.
Yes, wild elephant dears. So be careful.
When you get to Kota Bahru make sure you go to Kuala Terengganu
From Kuala Terengganu make sure you take the coastal road to Kuantan
It is very scenic
5 stars journey. So lucky!
Watch out for this signboard "Wild Life Crossing"
It is wild elephant, you need to be careful, the word AWAS mean WARNING or CAREFUL
One more beware...
Full respeck to u secure ...u can speak n explain in English very well...salute . Very important guys.....walaupn gagap2 x pe bro..awak x memalukan country kita.....
Can't wait to see your Kota Bharu video. U guys went to Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan - probably 3 of the least visited states by foreigners in Malaysia. Good job!!!
The Islamic heartland of Malaysia is not a popular place to visit for non-Malay Malaysians.
@@varvoom That might be part of the reason but in truth is, there's not much to do or see out there anyway. Kedah has Langkawi but that's about it.....
@@kopxpert All these PAS-controlled States are only good at building Madrasses, Langkawi was their halal tourist centre barely able to survive, even their gimmick of duty-free alcohol shops did not bring in the tourists who prefer Penang which is more multiculturally friendly.
@@varvoomoo really are u have been here or just fantasy slander
Wellcome to the east coast. Full of traditional culture. Way of living, food, headgear, architecture, colorfull fishing boats & so on. Go to Tourism Kelantan office in the city centre. Get some information, brosures, map etc
Thanks for the tips!
After the whole bombardment of war stories on my news feed, seeing strangers being nice with each other during difficulties make me feel some kind relief that there is still peace loving and kind people exist in this world. And thanks for showing me this side of Malaysia. Safe journey to both of you guys.
It can feel like the world is pretty hateful sometimes but there is good people everywhere! You can see this more when you travel and people always help out in difficult situations 💪
Great content guys, an A and a + for taking the grik jeli road. Need more content like these. The the usual KL and Penang boring already.
Be careful and safe on your journey
Yes there are real wild elephants on the east west road but quite safe if you take the necessary precautions like avoiding riding from dusk to dawn, and if you happen to encounter them keeping a safe distance and time to cross the road especially if there are babies with them. Just give due respect.
Tips of the day.. bring empty bottles then filled up the extra ⛽ for drive extra miles 😊
i think that is old road from kedah to kelantan .... it avoid tol and do not have any petrol station u may need to go around town then u can find one that was good journey
My highest respect to the security guard. He is awesome
Do stay safe while biking on remote roads. Have a great time in Malaysia.
Spectacular views over the mountains. Welcome to Kelantan guys. Make sure to try nasi kerabu, nasi dagang, and laksam ❤
They had those in KL already. Get them to try jump stab, duck poo kuih and sister kuih. If possible try the now rare crocodile bubble as well
welcome to our beloved country malaysia
I suggest that after finishing the trip in Malaysia, I want you to do a review on the small cc bike you are riding, tell them the small cc bike can do the best too!
Be careful about your petrol gas and tyre motorcycle.. safety first on the road guys and love you ❤. You must take 2 liter gas petrol for emergency on the road.
Bro the weather is so hot right now in the East Coast...40 °C yesterday at my place in Kelantan no joke...El Nino...i never experience this very hot weather in my entire life this is first time...stay safe drink a lot of water...
dis is the longest hot season ever..im at my 40s now..indeed it was 1st time feel dis kind of hot n humid
It's 40+ here in Loie, Thailand.
@@thomasauslander3757terrible...feel like living in sauna 🥵
40 is temperature for warm wash in the washing machine, and some laundromats charge extra for a warm wash 🤔
welcome to the east coast of peninsula malaysia.....i wish you vlog more on the things you see and do while at each place coz your video is just showing your journey from hotel in point a to hotel in point b...just my thought
I agree.. Less 'exploration' so to speak. Only point A to B. Lack of content in the middle.
For example. They stop at Gerik, but that's it. Nothing further. Hope they can do more 'homework' for their route.
I think they are too exhausted to film while riding.
Instrumental music ❤ Full respect
There's nothing but beauty n love in Malaysia
The security guard represent Malaysian🇲🇾🤍
super vlog loved it💗
Amazing travel videos guys. Be safe always❤
What a beautiful view 🤩
What an awesome roadtrip.

You both have a beautiful life 😊 🙏
Elephants and the lakes! Awesome!
Beautiful ❤
Nice road trip dear! Hope you guys enjoy it and please, be safe always!
Must be interesting video coming soon...
Good job. You made it
Its awesome for me, as Malaysian myself, I've yet to reach the Royal Belum and its feel so nice to see you guys made it!
the banding dam you stopped by was built by the british in the past for drinking and hydroelectricity. and there was an engineering error by the British when the water level started to rise, submerging several villages around the dam. and this lake has a horror story that there is a snake head fish that is the size of a barrel and grabs and eats people.😂😂😂
Iye, tuhari kawan aku lama tak jumpa, dia bagitau dia kena makan dengan ikan kepala ular dalam tasik tu, patut la lama menghilang
Wild man! I wont even think of doing what you did 🤣🤣 i can feel the cramp from just watching your trip going there!
Dang you do ride a long road , salute to you guys
NICE N KIND PAKCIK

Welcome to Malaysia. I have riden the same route you did. As a local myself, I still find it is still a pretty awesome route with beautiful scenic. Hope you enjoy your adventure, ride safe.

Coming soon!
Welcome to Kelantan. Do enjoy your stay
Thank you!
@@TravelsonToast you're welcome
14:30 wow this is a great music
We recorded in Kelantan, coming in the next video 🙂
Great vlog on your ride across the East West Highway. A few years ago, there's a petrol station at Tasik Banding and now it's not operating anymore. I always bring along a spare 3L petrol jerry can just in case while riding my scooter across. From Bukit Bunga I will cross to Thailand for birding in Hala Bala Wildlife Sanctuary. Happy riding & safe ride.
Nice background music at end of vdo
Great Video guys. Hope you enjoy Malaysia
Thank you 🙏
Malaysia hospitality top top draw.❤
Stay safe❤
Awesome per usual. Your footage and editing is extremely good, you'd never know you're nomads.
Thank you 👍

@@TravelsonToast welcome guys keep uploading more videos love watching from philippines
Welcome to my hometown Kelantan in peace! ☮
Terima kasih!
Nice vlog guys 👍😊
Thank you 😊
good luck guys! enjoy and safe ride🤲
Thanks!
The negeri Perak is a sangat luas,di hilir Perak kelapa sawit ratusan ribu ekar,di Kerian sawah padi luas terbentang,di Ipoh bandaraya moden,di hulu Perak hutan gergasi tertua di dunia.
Wild tigers.... be careful guys. There are a couple of road sightings around Kelantan/Terengganu border so beware (if u haven't passed those areas yet)
For petrol in rural area , try asking convinience shop or just shop that sells things. They sell it by the bottle i think.
So dont be shy and ask. But yeah keeping spare is wise.
taking a detour to jeli you should visit lata kashmer, one of the hidden gems around the area.
I think you guys were lucky not encountered any wild elephants along Grik to Jeli. Just last month, a man was seriously injured by a wild elephant when he was taking a leak near the East-West Road Monument.
Hi mate. I'm really suggest that get ur bike to a workshop at kota bharu before u continue ur journey and do some services, oil change, tyres check etc that bike need to be service when u done long distance, u need to be extra caution with the tires.if necessary get a tires change,not expensive at all rm 300- 400 for a set.l for safety sake. Moped bikes tyre tend to burst in long distance run.
Welcome to Malaysia have a nice day and enjoy your trip.... bon voyage...👍👍
Thank you!
Woww..
