WEIRD MALAYSIAN HABITS | Unusual Things Malaysians Do
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.ค. 2024
- Find out what unusual and weird habits Malaysians have. In this video I share my thoughts on the unusual habits that Malaysian people have, from language habits to bathroom habits! I have lived in Malaysia for more than 10 years and most of these habits have become normal to me, I even catch myself doing most of these things as well!
Malaysia is a multicultural country with various ethnicities and religions. Like any other country or culture, there are some unusual habits that might seem normal to a Malaysian, but seem quite weird to a foreigner.
In this video you will learn about the usage of the word Lah, the toilet spray or Bum Gun, the reason behind Aunty and Uncle and why Malaysians tend to Double Park.
I am a foreigner that has been living in Malaysia since 2011 and I love the people, the culture and nature here. I make videos about my life as a Dutchman in Malaysia and I live in the Malaysian state of Sarawak. Follow me on my journey through life in this beautiful South East Asian country.

OMG! i cracked at ON THE WAY!! Lol😂
That makes me happy! Thanks for watching! 😁
@@GlobalGibbon love watching your videos. Keep it up! 👍😁
@@cassen3246 thanks! This Friday I'll talk about the weird Dutch habits!
Me too
Im malaysia malay lahhh..hihi
The cashier said "thank you" and I replied "thank you" too instead of "you're welcome" because I feel thanks for their work
I do sometimes say Thank you as a response to someone thanking me. I put some extra stress on the YOU to appreciate them as well. =D
Thank you ya.. ok thank you thank you.. thank you.. ok ok thank you
@@kamalninjazx10r Thank YOU
Thank you, ya thank you, no i mean i thank u, no i also mean u thank me then i thank you, no i thank you, you shut up and go! What go, welcome!
Same haha
The word Lah is actually we show the unconscious emotion that show they are comfortable with you, that's actually a compliment, in serious matter or formal we don't use the word 'lah'
Interesting! I must say that I don't usually hear Lah in official statements.
@@GlobalGibbon its true alot of people use it when we are close to someone or just joking around.
I think is mostly used on either pleading or explaining that is supposed to be a simple thing to do. Ex: no lah, bukan lah, makan lah,
"Laaaaa~ why wont you told me earlier? "
Can also
but more often than not, mat saleh wud over do it..
n personally, mybe becoz i only start speaking english when i started working, n i don’t work here in malaysia in those early days, i very rarely have “lah” in my english
A true Malaysian can always speak 1 sentence in many languages, malay, chinese, indian and others!
That's right. I love the "rojakness" of the common language here in Malaysia. We all understand one another!
Bahasa rojak la
yup
So true happens with my family so many times even teachers do it🤣
Cuba try test
I am an iraqi who lived in Malaysia for 14 years .. i can relate to this so much. And now i feel i am malaysian .. i sit at mamak and have my teh tarik everyday 😅 saya suka Malaysia ❤️
Malaysia is such a great place to live as a foreigner, and we all become more Malaysian every day!
I’m a Burmese whose been living here for 17 years and I can relate so much! Hahaha.
Malaysia is very friendly and hospitable to foreigners compared to when we are with fellow Malaysians lmao
You are Welcome to Malaysia
@@f1r3hunt3rz5 yes indeed it do be like that
As a Malaysian, everything he says is true.
Thanks for watching! 😊
yup
Well it's trur
Undeniably
Which planet is this guy from????
one thing about msian also is that we never replied "thank you" with "you're welcome" but another "thank you" instead 😂😂😂
In Indonesia they reply "sama-sama" (same, same) or "terima kasih kembali" or just "kembali." (thank you back.)
That's right. Thank You, Thank You!
@@richardjenkins4182 In malaysia the reply for terima kasih is also sama sama but we usually always reply with terima kasih back 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Because "thank you" in Malay doesn't really mean thank you but an expression of thanks because the literal meaning of "terima kasih" is "receive my love". So the reply of the same words or "sama-sama" (which literally means same-same) is the expression that is to reciprocate with giving our love in return to be thankful.
Then there's a joke or flirting way people do when thanked by saying "kasih diterima" or mean your love is received. 😏
@@MrArthoz true 😂😅
'lah' is the hardest word to explain to foreigners. Only true Malaysians know when to use it.
I agree, even after 10 years in Malaysia I still make a mistake in using Lah sometimes!
When you speak Malay language, la or lah is fine.
It sounds unusual only when you speak English.
Ye lah...
You betul lah
It's because they are directly translated from the malay sentences. Malaysians think in malay so when we directly translate the sentence, you just can't convert the *_lah_* into english, so it stays there.
Bukanlah - No lah
Macam tu lah - like that lah
Tentu lah - of course lah
Janganlah - don't lah
If you just add the lah to the end of every sentence, sometimes it feels off because the original malay sentence doesn't have the *lah* in it. Nak letak lah pun kena ada tatabahasa yg betul.
Lahhhh Kau nii, Hahahah language aku ni
My father once explained me why he's always late for a wedding ceremony. He said "always reached the ceremony 1 hour 30 minutes late so you can skip all the wedding speech and straight up to the foods". Till this very day, I felt very guilty because of this.
I can imagine! I don't like sitting and waiting at a wedding celebration, but I do love the speeches and ceremonies!
everyone does😂😂
Your father is a straight to the point person
🤣😁
Wedding speech suppose to be simple and meaningful. It was happened to me once we attended collegue's wedding ,too many people giving speech, the story from pregnant deliver kindergarten, primary, secondary and etc.. until we ate dinner at 9.15pm. The bride and bridgeroom also exhausted...sob sob.
In Malaysia, everyone is considered a boss when they foot the bill or pay for your service ;) Usually it's the boss who pay your salary, no? It's a form of respect too.
That's true. Good point!
As a conclusion, you no longer a dutch! Welcome to our Malaysian family. 🤗
Terimah Kasih banyak-banyak. I accept! 😁
Yess 👍 welcome to our Malaysia family. thanks if you love stay at Malaysia 🥰
Dia hybrid lah..
He is Dutch
He is also Malaysian
2 is better than 1

@@GlobalGibbon lah
i think that 'sudah makan' term came from WW2 where Malaysia is intruded by the Japanese. Lots of people hide inside the jungle to avoid massacre. They only managed to eat sweet potatos, and some even have to eat tree bark. People were always hungry at that time. So they always greet someone 'have u eaten' to show their care.
That's an interesting thought. It would make a lot of sense!
Omg, yes, my aunties told me before Japan came, all girls and women and even very young boys walk to the deep deep jungle left only 1 dad and 2 eldest son in city open store. They heard from neighbors Penang hit so bad snatch all female. So 10 ppl quickly pack light and start journey of hiding.
@@venusyap5953 yes, that’s the history. My mom told me that too.
@@venusyap5953 It was the dark times
Interesting. As a Malaysian I didn't know that I just thought it's some weird old people first question when meeting with new people.
I'm korean but lived in Malaysia for 19 years I can say I used to say like this its so relatable and funny 😂😂 (I miss Malaysia so much best country ever🇲🇾❤️)
What I like about us is that we naturally give respect to the waiter, so he is also ‘Boss’!
That's it! Most Malaysian language habits are about Respect! Awesome!
You're right, boss
NORMAL
CASHIER : THANK YOU
ME: YOU'RE WELCOME
MALAYSIAN STYLE
CASHIER : THANK YOU
ME: THANK YOU
This is the best comment of today! Hahaha
This is so true! LOL!
just the other day my daughter asked me that.she said "'why do u say thank u when u reply to a thank u?"😂
@@nurismail_ that's hilarious 😂
when you become a businessmen, and there have some mistake, customer and seller will say I m sorry, I m sorry too, or Sorry sorry sorry!!!!
God bless u for trying to explain the word "lah"
It took years to understand the usage! I think I kind of get it now! 😆
Bolehlah bolehlah
There was an attempt
One more weird one is if a public holiday falls in the weekend, they shift it to Friday or a Monday. Which is great though.
That's right! The people need holidays!
Lol we are so spoiled in Malaysia.
We are ranked 18 in the countries with most public holidays. If it falls in the weekend, move it to the next day, do not waste it! LOL
Also, everyone anticipates an athlete to win gold in a major sporting event and everyone hopes for a public holiday the next day
The policy to be fair cause state weekend either sat-sun / fri-sat. No replacement though if fall on Saturday. Extra holiday for winning football cup.
Isnt that the BEST !!!!
Bwahahahaha
our unusual habit: hang up before voicemail kicks in even tho we see people do voicemails on movies n shows all the time
Voicemails? Wow. So 2003!🤣🤣🤣
oh, so there are ppl actually utilizing the function of voicemail? idk that xDD
Hahaha ya betul , sbb kbyakan org xtau mcm mana nak dgr balik voicemail tu , dorg xtau nak tekan apa , apa lagi yg sdh berumur
i dont even know how to dengar balik the voicemail 😂
my mentality is, if the call is important and i missed it, the person will whatsapp me back.. lol
I really hate the “on the way” culture. I can say I’m quite a punctual person compared to average Malaysians and it irritates me when people come late to an event. And it’s always the same person too that came late.
That's right. It's always the same person's. 😂
Force of habits lol
pro tips: if your event starts at 8am, tell them you want to see them at 7 or 7.30. They'd come either at 7.45 or 8am sharp!
@@edpotter1170 i Remember when teacher say class on 8 a.m and Actually class at 8.30 a.m still have 1 or 2 guy still late.
in the bright side ,she/he actually very "punctual" if she/he always late.....she/he punctual in his own time....to be late. hahaha
one more habits you forgot, here people like to call "abang" or "kakak" to other people we dont know as to start conversation, or at shop
That's also right! I missed out on a bunch of habits. Perhaps a follow up video will come!
Biasanya budak sekolah rendah kan yang guna abang, akak
@@nikden5534 bukan guma untuk panggil org yang lagi tua dari kita tapi jarak umur tak terlalu jauh ke. Yelah, tak kan nak panggil stranger umur beza 5 tahun 'Aunty' ke 'uncle' kowtt😂😂. Aunty tu mcm jarak umur dah jauh sangat like beza 10 tahun lebih gitu baru panggil aunty
I think "gila" (gila) also need to be addressed... Power gila... Lawak gila... Boring gila...😂😂
@@youknow_ihaveNoChiNGU I still remember being called "encik" by a cashier who is probably in her mid 20s. I'm 14 at the time.
If you are asking why she call me encik maybe it's because I'm taller than her
We are 1Malaysia, a really big family so that's why everyone are our uncle and auntie😅😅😂😂
Lov u from Malaysia🇲🇾🇲🇾❤️❤️
That's so kind! Thanks for watching!
As a Malaysian, I'm only not punctual on unofficial plans. Or things that doesn't bother people.
I dare not to be late for important staffs tho. I will try get ready an hour early, so that I arrive early or on time.
I think that's Key. Most people will be on time for important meetings. But if you meet a friend, there is more flexibility.. 😂
@@GlobalGibbon you can always blame the traffic although you're taking public transport like LRT and monorail 😂
Same as me.. if meet someone on 10 am. I will go before 10. To be punctual.
'Boss' is indirectly to show some respect. E.g u call a restaurant helper/ mamak place to wipe the wet table your are dine in. rather than call him 'Hey' its more polite to address him boss so that he could feel pleased to help and know he is appreciated. Coz we never like people to belittle us right?
Well this is Malaysian way of 'boss' perspective :) Trust me that I onced had lunch with my boss and he even call the restaurant helper 'boss' haha nothing weird to us.
I like to use Boss as a sign of respect as well, to put a smile on the person's face. It's a good Malaysian habit!
@@GlobalGibbon yeap exactly I am ☺️
Well our weather is not that colourful but our food is - so instead of asking - how is the weather or complimenting the weather we ask have you eaten .. simple ;)
Respect in joking and friendly way
Toilet bidet is the reason why I'm afraid to travel overseas... I need my bidet .🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can imagine! 😂
As a Malaysian, we need that very2 much
I agree but we should try to keep our toilet dry.
you bring two 1.5 liter empty mineral water bottle, fill it and use it lah, i do that in place no bum gun
"bum gun" is the best. the cleanest way. toilet paper is best used just for drying up the water.
"lah" can be used in every situation possible.
laaa... : to show your disappointment
lah?! : to express shock
(okay) lah : another word for "Sure, why not"
That's it Lah! Thanks for watching boss!
And word 'lah' actually chinese accent always use this word
Lahhh gitu ke
And chinese malaysian mostly use it in any sentence no matter what the situation is 😄.
True! And eventually after living for 3 years here and communicating with Malaysians daily I also opt the LAH and double word CAN CAN in our business.🤪
Right! It makes communicating a lot easier!
In Malaysia when you got meeting, not casual or cooperate meeting, after the meeting you will got food, everytime you got some event even school parents meeting, before you go back you will good tapau food, you go for school sport day you will got gardenia bun and drink before the event done. Everything will start with long speech end with food for everyone hahaha.
Spot on! There is always time to stop by a bakery, or some food court for a snack..
Not so unusual for Malaysian to ask 'ada makan-makan tak' if you invite them to somewhere..
@@henryjulius6464 hahahaha! Because if there's free food, sure ppl will come. Some event purposely have to prepare food so that ppl will come, for instance ceramah agama. Haha
@@henryjulius6464 right. when got extra OT days at work people ask got makan2 x? if yes then more people will join loool
8:38 one of the reason Malaysian double parked because the weather is so panas !! 🤣
You can't deny that!
Only in Malaysia where everyone can be boss 😂
That's right boss!
Betul sangat boss!
Hahaha yes boss
Ye boss
as i remember when i meet my friends i never say "how are you today?".. we usually ask each other"kau dah makan belum? aku lapar doh. nak makan mana ?"(have u eaten yet? im so hungry. where are we going to eat).. sorry my english very bad...
You're English is great! I realise most initial questions are about food here. I love it!
Ayyee fellow Carat (つ≧▽≦)つ
In Malaysia everything is literally MIXED. The food, culture, people,language and I'm proud of it.
yes it is a multicultural country ^^
the lah word just like you said, it like emotion on the sentence, it differ on the tone for expression either to persuade, happy, angry, sad, dissappointment and other expression...best to use on persuade, like boleh laaaa(when to ask something to do something or buy something)
repetitive word - normally to give firm answer, because sometimes we will ask 2-3 times to confirm, but when somebody just said 3-4 time that one mean you can do/get it...
dah makan / food - another chapter for malaysian to break the ice/to start conversation plus to show caring for somebody. if close friends or family, sometimes they will prepare snack and beverage and then chit chat while eating, if coming at lunch or dinner then you will be asking to join...food are close to our heart plus we have multiculture hence we enjoy all kind off food. But when outside, it will become a horror as we dont know where to eat...(same as to me when somebody ask where the good restaurant to eat or recommend, i will answer dont know because it is hard to recommend the restaurant that suit the palate of your friends)
uncle/aunty/boss/akak/abang - our respect on other people and we feel like we are in one family. we hardly to say sir/madam/miss (tuan / puan / encik / cik in malay) this word normally use on formal ocassion or when you at government office...
time- yeah, we call it malaysian standard time... but it depends on people. me, myself are very punctual...but if official thing, most of them are punctual...
chilie - yeah, chilie sauces are the best... i always bring the packet when travel...
This is such a great explanation. I will pin this comment so everyone that watches this video can read it!
Yeah i second this. The chillies? I didn’t know that haha. But personally, i will always proud of Malaysian chilli and soy sauce. I remember that i did carefully smuggling them in my luggage before i went to Germany and the officer at the scan machine was like “oi kicap, sos jalen” and just shaking his head while looking at me. Luckily he let it slipped away when i said that i was a student hahaha. It’s quite easy to find soy sauce with almost the same taste but 100% sure that i never taste any chilli sauce like we have in Malaysia here.
Oh now I’m feeling homesick.
Oops not really homesick. But more like having food sickness haha.
@@thisisme7471 it is very hard to find chili sauces is different through out the world but when going to vacation, it not suit to me, hence need to bring from malaysia…most on other place it just like hot sauces(which is the sauces just have heat and overly sour but malaysian sauce there is sweet, sour, heat and many taste…
I dont know where are you now, but how about your stock of chili sauces? Is that easy to get there?
Lah is not just emotions but an expressions too a way to deliver the message more effectively according to the expression
I like the way you presenting about Malaysian. I agree 💯 of what you say. Congratulations for being a Malaysian. You can survive everywhere you go because you know how to go with the flow. Awesome 👍👍👍
I lived in Malaysia for about 8 years, this video brought back some sweet memories :D Thank you lah uncle!
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope you can visit again someday soon!
After living in Canada for over 30 years, haven’t lost the use of lah yet! You are right about us lah!
I can imagine. Once you start using it, it will never leave you!
As a malaysian hate double park & not being punctual. Probably because of my experience living in the states. 😁
Bad habits die hard! Thanks for watching!
U are right about chilli, hahaaa during my vacation to Istanbul i bring chilli sauce bottle from Malaysia everytime want to eat outside. Cannot eatlah without chilli sauce😆😂
Haha. This comment cracked me up. I had to tell my wife, and she's very happy to hear she's not the only silly person to bring chillies or sauce to a place. 😂 😂
Lol maybe for most malaysians for me I try to stay away from spicy food
Sambal chili tambah belacan itu, PERGGHHH😋 - My mom
@@GlobalGibbon once i was student exchange msia usa i bring few maggi chili sos bottle to eat together with bland taste american food
he said 'Tapau'! Quite shocked to hear that from non-malaysian cause most use the word 'bungkus' than 'tapau', even myself. Respect to you!
Thanks! The word "Tapau" is the main word for Take Away here in Kuching!
The unspoken rule of double parking : leave the hand break down! (I mean, if you're not parked on a slope obviously!)
Haha, that's a good idea. Or leave your phone number on a piece of paper.
I have definitely pushed a double parked car with my parents before as a kid, thanks to the handbrake down.
FUN FACT: IN KUCHING, PEOPLE STILL USE TREE BRANCHES TO TELL PEOPLE THEIR CAR BROKE DOWN. OR PUT UP THEIR WIPERS TO TELL THE METER MAID, “5 MIN! 5 MINS!”
SHOUT OUT IF YOU ARE FROM THE EAST SIDE!
@@deepskull366 I think there is some wrong with your keyboard. It seems like your Caps lock is on! 😂
Tree branches are very handy to warn people of oncoming danger!
@@GlobalGibbon IT’S STUCK LAH.
Everyone can be a Malaysian People if u master the word "Kan" and "Nya"
-Nya style
Mananya~
Sedapnya~
Sakitnya~
Nya word always use at the end of word when u want to show your reaction.
And the most power of "Kan"🤣
it have so many types for example:
(only Malaysian people will understand)
slowly-Kan
confuse-kan?/betulkan?
Long-Kaaan~~
angry-Kang ahh!
if i miss something,comment me and i will edit more😅
I love this! Thanks for sharing this. You have just taught me something new today!
@@GlobalGibbon you are welcome😁

"Boss, how much is this, can get cheaper ah?"
"Can not lah, boss, already cheap. More cheap I go bankrupt lah."
So true. Every time I ask for a discount I hear "Cheap Cheap already lah!"
Betul lah apa yang dia cakap. Banyak guna juga lah ni kan.
😂, oh, u r funny! But it’s true!
Okay, I really laughed at 'time is fluid'. yeah, a habit that I hate but that's living in Malaysia.
It's all part of the culture! Thanks for watching!
That's why we have "Uncle" Roger👦..😏😉
I'd love to meet Uncle Roger one day!
😂😂😂😂
My girlfriend is Malaysian she always says “hurmm” when she’s annoyed with me... I really enjoyed calling everyone auntie and uncle it was so friendly..,
It is to emphasize (repetitive), being friendly (boss) & being polite/respect (auntie uncle). 😄
That's right!
because we rarely asking 'how are you' because for Malaysian, it is something about our culture where we are comfortable of being not asked by our personal business all of sudden, and 'sudah makan' is the starting way of 2 Malaysians become comfortable and getting ready to speak freely while eating or drinking, it shows trust and real connection. Thats why Malaysians always loe food because food is the connection bridge of our hearts and feeling towards each other
Laughing non stop for the beginning act, esp the otw part (yes abbreviation). You have nailed 80% of the slang and tone.
Thanks! =D
Boss is to address someone as a sign of respect regardless their career job, I call everyone boss including janitor, security guard, maid, delivery man etc
I do that too. I love making people feel happy, and using Boss had that effect!
"of course lah, Bos! Yeap yeap thank youuk thank youuk babai babai babai...". spot on 🤣
Haha, thanks for watching!
While studying in NZ, I bring my Malaysian habits with me but I get accustomed pretty fast here.
You can take a person out of Malaysia, but you can never take Malaysia out of a person!
I'm addicted to your video lah..
Thank you boss! Make sure to follow Global Gibbon on Facebook as well for more videos and posts!

@@alibabahunter7096 .. Ha ha. Biasa lah
Happy to hear this ..lovely
My husband of 4 years came from Syria and he has picked up most of the habits that you've mentioned up to a point that I think he is more "Malaysian" than myself as he used them a lot especially when we're out to mamak. 🤭🤭🤭🤭
Can't blame him, he heard them everyday lah! 🤣
Haha. That's funny. I sometimes think I'm more Malaysian in my habits than my wife too! 😂
I've always struggle to explain my foreigner new friends on the LAH, but thanks to u, i have great definition of LAH!! Thank you Boss!!!
Thanks for watching Lah!
We call those not that older than us Abang(Big Brother) or Kakak (Big Sis). However now younger people call me Uncle instead of Abang 😭 which was a shock the first time happen which make me realized that I have arrived to that age bracket 😞
Thanks for that info! The moment people started calling me uncle I realized I had gotten older as well 😂 😂 😂
Me too I'm only a teenager but I am an auntie makes me feel older😅
if we said "thank you" only once, we feel like we don't thanks them enough 😂😂 that is why we keep repeating the word many times to show how grateful we are to someone 😂😂
That's right. You have to show a lot of appreciation, it's kind of nice!
There is also ler. Its a cousin of lah BUT its more of an opposite of lah
Ler, liao, loh, boh, so many variants. Haha
@@GlobalGibbon ‘dowh’ @ ‘doh’ also their cousin 😂😂
my mom does that too.she brings a bottle of sos cili everywhere.it's a malaysian thing😂
Haha! That's awesome!
I went to NZ and bring bundles of mcd and kfc 's chillie sauces packets ..hahahaha
In malaysia..u must know the different between sauce & ketchup too..🤭🤭
@@bennraymore-101 it's easy. Sauce is Chilli, Ketchup is Tomatoes..
@@mynameismassabran2398 no. in Malaysia, "kicap" is soy sauce. If you ask for 'ketchup' in a local restaurant you're more likely to get soy sauce than the actual ketchup. In Malaysia you call ketchup "tomato sauce".
I will asked this to my colleagues every morning
“Harini nak makan apa ah? / what to eat today?”
Or before Punch out
“Esok nk makan apa? / what shall we eat tomorrow?”
Chili is the way of LIFE
Can't live without food!
So true!!! Mantap bosskuu👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for watching Switching Sides!
A good description and understanding of Malaysian ways.
Thanks for watching!
Spot on !!!!! giggles all the way
the way you explain the usage of "LAH" is spot on!
Thanks! It took me a long time to fully understand it's usage. 😂

I hope I can visit Pesta Benak next year!
Thank you boss for the wonderfully accurate video
Thanks for watching!
As Malaysian, our English can be good or bad. Sometimes, for example in class when teacher done writing on whiteboard, student will ask this "Copy, teacher?" instead of "Do we need to copy that, teacher?"😂
I do see a lot of Malaysians shorten sentences when speaking in English. It can be hilarious sometimes!
@@GlobalGibbon shorten the sentences makes your life easier hahaha and more efficient.. full sentences need 3secs but the shorter version only need maybe 1sec or even lesser if the person speaks really fast :D

Very nice content lahhhhh!!!
Thank you Lah boss!
nampaknya konsep "janji melayu" or "on the way" telah disebarkan dimata orang luar .
Interesting! Thanks for watching!
LMAO to this! It's such a fun reminder about what we consider "normal" on a day to day basis. The abbreviations are really too much sometimes lol. And food is life and I hate the time is fluid thing tbh lol.
Haha. This video a little mirror for you? I love all these habits, except for the double parking! Haha
@@GlobalGibbon Absolutely! Except for the double parking and I don't drive so I'm not guilty! Haha.
@@kevinyeohck Yeah. Double parking is annoying, especially in KL. At least most of them leave their numbers on their dashboard. You call and they come running
Very good video lah!
Thank you lah!
U r very observant !! 😅😅👍👍👍 tq for this video, i cant agree more , hi from cyberjaya
Another enjoyable video, guilty for all of them except maybe not too bad in the double parking aspect 🤣 Looking forward to more videos , cheers !
Haha. You're a true Malaysian then!

Thanks for watching lah!
This is one cool chanellah Boss 😉👌
Hey buddy! Thanks a bunch!!!
On the way is more like "I'm going there now" and if they are really on the way they will tell you their current location. Some will tell you "will be there in 5mins" or "almost there" but some ppl lie about that.
Haha, so true.
Janji melayu
Its really all about FOOD here. I do feel Malaysia is one of the best country with so much good food!
And also Malaysians like to add "one" such as "Yeah its like that one".
😂😂😂
The food is indeed so delicious here wan!
I'd like to go, but Asia is still closed. I may move to Indonesia where I lived before but I'd really like to visit Malaysia before I make up my brain about which one feels better to me. Indonesia has great food, too. Similar, of course.
Cool nick
Keep going
Yehoo!
Nice lah
Besides 'lah'.. Borneon/Sabahan Malaysia added 'bah'😂😂 it sounds funny to people from semenanjung Malaysia tho
Yeah, it's mostly common in Sabah bah!

Thanks for watching buddy! This Friday I'm diving deeper into habits, more about food!
You already had me laughing at the "already on the way" 🤣🤣🤣
Not sure of anyone ever mentioned this
But here we in Sabah ( not sure Sarawak ), when asked to point something from some distance… it would be like
“Oh, ni barang kena pajak kat saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanah kedai tu.”
Or
“tuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-nah boss, dekat saaaaaaana tu rumah dia”
The longer the sound, the far it’s gets XD
Hehe true
And bah. If it's lah for peninsular, it's bah for sabah and swak, but sabah especially.
Hahahahaha so true. Kat saaaaaaana to indicate the long distance. For shorter distance, you emphasize "siniiiiiiiii" with mouth pouty downward. Lol
Boleh Bah Kalau Kau!
