    As Ministry of Health my self working in VECTOR unit for some years, i advices u do not underestimate Dengue Fever. This lady might in 1st phase Dengue Fever since Dengue has 4 stages. Once u admitted as stage 4 dengue with serious implication might bring someone to death. So please dont hang out outside the building early sunset with skin exposed outfit since that is the fiercing mosquitos hunting time for blood to suck. And one more thing, Dengue is virus-caused fever and still no cure for this disease yet so far. Only some treatment to lessen pain available.

    Although I am a San Francisco native 🌁, I sometimes travel to The Philippines 🇵🇭. Plenty of Filipinos, Chinese, Indians, Indonesians 🇮🇩 , Koreans 🇰🇷 in the Bay Area.
    Rice 🍚, durian , touch and go - card are easy for Filipinos. 😃 Tea 🍵 in The Philippines 🇵🇭 is not often drunk by its citizens: coffee ☕ is the preferred drink. The Chinese 🇨🇳 and Indians 🇮🇳 are the main tea drinkers there.
    Durian is the reason Anthony Zimmer cannot become a Malaysian citizen! Or a citizen in another Asian nation! L 🤣 L
    I hate 😒 the smell. It is like a skunk 🦨 (Note that plenty of skunks live in the Bay Area.) But the taste, IMO, is yummy 😋.

    I'm not sure whether she ate in public during Ramadhan or not. For Muslims in Malaysia it's considered a religious crime to eat in public during Ramadhan without any reasonable excuse.
    But Muslim women usually get away with it because they have a menstrual period which allows them not to fast.
    But generally in Malaysia even if you have reasonable excuses such as period for women or sickness or gastric or any other illnesses that allows you not to fast or you are a long distance traveller, still people will try not to eat in public out of respect for others who are fasting and also to avoid any misunderstanding with the authority. They usually will buy take aways and just eat in their own private space or home.
    This only applies for Muslims. For non-Muslims in Malaysia they can eat anywhere anytime anything.
    But I also observed that most of the non-Muslims in Malaysia will try not to eat in front of their Muslims friends during Ramadhan out of respect.
    Living in a multiethnic multicultural multireligious country like Malaysia you will develop a form of tolerance, acceptance, compromise and respect for each other.

      It should be fine. In my opinion the authority has no right to police or tell anyone how to practice their religion. Especially not to a foreigner.

      @@sofiaglove Yes. Compassion should be the main virtue but each country has their own specific cultural practices and law. It's in the religious law of each state in Malaysia that eating in public without any reasonable excuse during Ramadhan is considered a religious crime for Muslims in Malaysia. Once it's encoded within the law it can be enforced by the religious authorities whether you agree with it or not. If you disagree with such laws then it's your responsibility to persuade your MPs or ADUNs to amend such law. Until it is amended, the law stays.

      Malaysia is a free country, you can do whatever u want as long u not commit a crime. I'm a Malay Muslim but not too religious. In Ramadan me & my friends also eat foods at indoor places. only muslim who are not ashamed to eat at public in the month of Ramadan. many malays muslim also not fully fasting in ramadan. but most of them not eat & drink at public places their all respect each other. malaysia are comfort place in southeast asia. all countries have advantages and disadvantages. but for me malaysia is the best same as singapore. malaysia dont have many strict law like singapore. u can drinking, smoking/vaping at public. peace & love❤

    I love your video! It's so refreshing. Truly Appreciated.❤ And Dinara is so sweet and beautiful person.
    Unfortunately, I notice a lot of disrespectful comments by some netizens. Why you allowed it. They can criticize but with facts, not hatred. Don't allow them name-call a country with "bad words". A name of a country is very sacred and dear to many millions. They can dislike or have an opinion of a country but mention it respectfully.

    Actually there is another version of nasi lemak which is not hot. You just say "Not hot heh" (tak pedas heh). Usually the nasi lemak seller will ready with 2 types of 'sambal' (greavy), ie 'hot' and 'not hot' (less hot).

    It just seems easier for me to fly around SE Asia on tourist visas. Malaysia is great with the 3 month tourist visa then I can just fly to TH, PH or Bali for a bit and come back. Maybe when I turn 50 I will look into retirement visas but for a person that loves to travel I don't see the need to jump through additional hoops.

    Don’t be bothered by the comments say you are not Malaysian enough if you hate Nasi Lemak. They just joking. Myself also hate nasi lemak either. Nothing special on it. Plus, Malaysian from westcoast tend to hype it meanwhile malaysian from eastcost said they dont care about nasik lemak because thier Nasi Kerabu and Nasi Dagang are way heaven that Nasi Lemak. Nasi Lemak is for rookie’s taste bud. 😂
