I'm living here now for 5 years. The good things are friendly people, great food and a lot of interesting places to visit. The bad? People don't obey the traffic laws, use and throw away too much plastic like they don't care as long as they don't have to hold it. Malaysians don't really seem to understand that this could be a perfect tourist place if they didn't destroy all the nature themselves. I still love this country.
You are so right abt the use of plastic ware & the lack of awareness in recycling & reducing waste here. I encourage composting to many people like my neighbours etc but sadly very few takers
@@HuntaKiller91 foreigners just doesn’t know how to commute public transportations here. MRT, LRT, ERL, RapidKL are all very helpful to go places, just have to know their lines and routes
As someone who has worked in Malaysia, (Kuala Lumpur), originally from Botswana 🇧🇼. I can gladly say Malaysia is an awesome country. Interacting with very friendly people (Chinese,Indians,Malays), to the food (Nesi Lemak) which is my favorite and there r many tourist places that I'm still in love with(Genting Highlands, Penang Island, Port Dixon). Unfortunately, I never got the chance to visit Langkawi Island, but I hope to come back again and experience more with my family. terima kasih kepada semua warga malaysia dan rakan-rakan/adik-beradik yang saya dapat buat di tempat kerja. ❤
I’m a Malaysian and have never been to Batu Caves hahaha 😂 But as a Malaysian, I am embarrassed that many Malaysians still litter. I truly hate seeing people litter and hope more people will have common sense to take good care of the environment.
I hate when people litter too. It’s all thanks to the education system. When you just bow to the parents…. Even B40 parents who we know most of them are not that civilised. Sheesh.
Compare malaysia to Singapore. Malaysians keep their places dirtier compared to Singapore. Look at the Malay housing buildings. So old looking like a 40 year old dilapidated building
I can understand if it's food rider. I mean the customers will get angry at them and yell if they're late that's true. Not to mention the time limit put on to achieve just like in advertisement.
This can be solve by enforcement actually. Those food riders do that so they can deliver asap and continue with another job. Basically, their income is dependent on how fast they complete their job. While they are everywhere in the street and some of them didn't obey traffic law but still they are the one who will be our samaritan incase of excident/rob happen in the street.
An incredible people, and incredible culture. I have been enamored with MALAYSIA ever since I stepped foot there over a decade ago. I HIGHLY recommend people go check it out for themselves. The metropolitan cities, the pristine islands. Yes, it's not perfect, but I've been to many countries and continents, the excitement I feel about Malaysia is UNMATCHED.
Sadly, it is the Indian places which are generally dirty in KL. This is coming from an Indian who has been there 3 times. We just don't take pride in keeping stuff clean I guess.
@rakshit thakur if we voice out they call non Indian racist. But it is the truth. The local Indian community does not take care of the environment. Other places of worship are bloody clean eg Chinese temples, churches, mosques, Sikh temples. But Hindus does not do that. They pray to murugan, shiva in dirty environment. That is what puzzle me. Why can't you respect the environment and god at the same time. Vlogger Jack Torr really voiced out on his vlog in 2022. I guess most will visit it once only. Shame on the temple committee. We cannot blame the monkeys. They just grab whatever humans bring there. And visitors never learn not to bring food and drinks.
@@keangwooichoo6138 this seems to be an issue with these south Indian temples in there. I have nothing against my South Indian people but the priest there and whoever is incharge of sanitation should take in their hand. I'm currently based in US and have seen how places where a lot of Indians live have a different non-sanitary feel to it. Sadly people call it "Indianising" a place.
@rakshit thakur sorry to say but Pakistan, India and Bangladesh aren't clean as well. But in Malaysia batu caves is thumbs down for cleanliness. It maybe colourful but the priests pray in filthy environment
This Batu Caves issue has been going for years. I still dont understand why tour agencies keep guiding tourist to this place. If they want to visit hindu temple just send them to a cleaner temple. Malaysian authority should scrap Batu Caves from our tourist attraction venue.
It’s part of UNESCO Heritage must visit site. Most tourist request to visit and if the tour agency doesn’t include this in the tour, they are short selling must visit attraction. Rubbish is everywhere in kl too so it falls down to the responsible management of that attraction to maintain cleanliness.
I lived in Malaysia for 8 years great place. However the airport needs to recruit more staff especially on a Sunday (been a problem for years).. I've seen multiple posts on linkedin showing 3 hour queues recently. Also, the train is still broken from KLIA to sentral after a year and people are forced to take buses - not a great introduction for international travellers.
I love Malaysia without any negative point! The people are incredibly nice and I always and everywhere in Malaysia felt safe and welcome! As soon as possible (latest in next winter) I will be back again! Btw.: Batucaves was a dirty and really “NonMalaysian” experience for me, which I definetly will not repeat! Once again: I visited so much places, like KL, Cameron Highlands, Penang, Langkawi, Kuching, KK, and Sandakan,Borneo and so on and I want to repeat it all! Malaysia, truly Asia!
@@NoeYahy Terima kasih! I already visited Langkawi several times and want to come back as soon as possible! And yes: Kedah, Perlis etc. is my next aim to visit! ♥
I lived in KL (mostly PJ) from 2009 into 2018. I was there for MH370 and Kim Jong-nam (KLIA2). Flew in and out of LCCT to the Singapore Budget Terminal many times. I'm not a tourist and never considered myself one. Hopefully I'll be back for an even longer stay soon. I loved the LRT, KTM, Rapid KL, PJ City Bus, Metrobus, Bas MIni, Sunway Shuttle, MRT, etc. 👍
More underrated attractions in KL (some of these are free to enter): -Rumah Penghulu Abu Seman -Istana Negara -Royal Museum -KL Craft Complex -Free Cultural Dance Show in Malaysia Tourism Center -Galeria Sri Perdana -P Ramlee Memorial -Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Memorial -Tun Abdul Razak Memorial -Tun Hussein Onn Memorial -Memorial Negarawan -Bank Negara Museum -Royal Malaysia Police Museum -Telekom Museum -National Art Gallery -National Planetarium
People are amazing, so friendly and the amount of people that speak English is incredible, the natural attractions could be some of the best in the world but unfortunately are let down by the rubbish that’s everywhere and also the lack of maintenance, before long some of these will need a massive overhaul or will have to be closed to the public, the rubbish is the worst part about Malaysia, the only place where rubbish didn’t seem an issue compared to the rest of the country was Malacca, all in all an amazing country and people tho
I've heard in Singapore that you'd have to pay a hefty fine for littering..How different is the case in Malaysia? Are the laws for penalizing littering too lax in Malaysia?
I am currently on holidays in Malaysia for 20 days. I love this city, you will never get bored as there is so much to do and see. Some of the things Malaysia could improve on as per my opinion are: - the pedestrian walkways are really rough and uneven in some parts in the city. Some places as your walking on flat surface it becomes stairs and its really hard to get around when you have a pram or, people in wheelchairs/disability and elderly etc. - sometimes there is no crossing areas and you literally have to cross a massive road with so much cars and you could be waiting for so long as the traffic is alot. -also i agree with the comment about the batu caves being very dirty as I just went yesterday and it was really filthy. This surprising bc i thought places of worship would be very clean. -grab was a hit and missed for me as well. Its probably my fault as a foreigner not knowing area. Thats all i could think of. So far i am loving being here, thank to all the lovely Malaysian people for welcoming us to your country.
The reason tourists go to Batu Caves are due to curiosity about a unique or'exotic' experience and the prospect of seing strange structures and artifacts in the temple apart from observing the ritualistic activities by the Hindu devotees.Normally it's a once in a lifetime thing for foreigners due to the reasons you all already know.However we hope things will improve someday somehow.
Isn't that true for every religious structure? People go to see them for their exotic nature. Why just target batu caves. Its not as if surroundings of other tourist places in the world are squeaky clean
I am English and Malaysia is incredible..I absolutely love the place. The people are absolutely beautiful, amazing hospitality, great food, stunning country 🇺🇲 4th visit and that will be 5th next year when i go bk to Kota Kinabalu via Mt Kinabalu to Sepilok and Semporna. Any recommendations please let me know
Our family loved our trip in Malaysia with out kids. Lots of fun places to see and things to do. We loved it so much that we are planning to return this summer. The only major complaint I have about Malaysia was that we found that washrooms were not as clean as it probably should be being a Muslim country. Traveling with kids they have to potty a lot sometimes and there were often times where even the toilet seats were missing (KLCC mall) We found ourselves running around trying to find other washrooms. Toilet paper being completely empty and out of stock. The condition of the washrooms overall was bad in my opinion- especially the water cleaning thing by the toilets. The 2nd biggest one, was the roads and the random sidewalks with the holes in it, random wires hanging in the more rougher parts. It's generally a very beautiful and incredible country, but I would say if these 2 things could be fixed and the overall budget to making it more tourist pleasant Malaysia could attract more tourism. Mind you our trip was at the end 2019 just before covid became official. So things might be different now.
Thanks for your input and I’m pleased to hear that after all you had a good time :) Malaysia is in many ways behind when it comes to accommodating tourists. A lot to do for Malaysia tourism authorities. Until then, it remains an amazing country which has so much to offer but maybe not so much for mainstream travels (which makes it more interesting for us 😜) Thanks again for sharing your experience 😊
The toilet issue is bad and can't see it improving for a long while. For someone who often runs to the loo after a meal it is really inconvenient. I have to stuff my bag with toilet paper too.
Tq for their comments, i hope the negetive comment about Batu Caves must to be taken actions by City Council to produce an idea how to solve the problem to convince the tourist that the area will be cleaned, as soon as possible..
Excelled again mate. Every body just loves being interviewed by the super friendly guy from the Netherlands based in North of Thailand. I haven't seen one yet that sort of keep looking like they are trying to escape or cut it short. You've got it mastered. Good onya champ. 🤩
Haha Steven ;P I edit all of them out of course! Just joking. Mainly everyone is super friendly and helpful :D Thanks for your kind words Steven. Cheers
Great content . I guess are just pros n cons in any places we go in this world 🌏 . Good to hear lots of positive 😃 reviews from tourist about Malaysia 🇲🇾 tho 🌺🌺
Again I heard a criticism regarding the cleanliness of the Batu Cave. Of course we do not expect to hear all the complement about our city of KL all the time but if the complain is focuses one spot, I would delete the place from my recommendation list whenever people seek my advice till there is improvement to the place. It’s just bring us the embracement if we heard the complain over and over again on the same place. Nonetheless, thank you so much for your kind of promotion of our country. You make our tourism job lot easier with your excellent voluntarily work. I’ve been following your vlogs as a loyal subscriber now.

to be honest, I went to Batu Cave 10 years ago & recently a year ago. Sadly the rubbish situation did not improve. I wonder why? I thought maybe because some people are feeding the monkey & left the rubbish there or maybe the monkey went through the garbage bin & scatter the rubbish around? It is sad. I tried to collect the garbage but there was too much garbage. The local government need to step up in managing this garbage situation. I dare say Batu Cave is the dirtiest tourist attraction in Malaysia ngl.
Big congrats. I think this video, with current views of 182K, could probably be d most viewed video from your channel, this far. In fact, many of your videos from Malaysia have bery good number of viewers.
Excellence work CT. Keep it up and Malaysian really need to hear from your interview especially the one we need to improve. Thanks for doing us a favor.
i have been back and forth to Malaysia for over 20+ years, China town (ONLY only hit there once - very old fashioned tourists spot) and BUKIT Bintang (not more than 6-8 times, 2 times in the recent visit in Feb 2023 for the AMAZING Syrian Foods, Solely for the reasons of good foods - other than that - if you go around that area - will find it boring if you are not interested in Luxury Brands shops and jammed traffic all the times almost -most Malaysian living in other areas are not keen to go include cab and Grab drivers - i guess).....Other than that , visiting any where outside the core KL, and other towns and cities Like: Penang, Ipoh, Cameron Highland - and the plantation and tea plantation there (you will find your in certain part of country side of England suddenly - quite intersting) etc etc should be giving you a different and more genuine feel / impression and u and understanding of Malaysia. Not surprising to have the experience of the Danish couple if they stayed mainly in core KL and going around Bukit Bintang and China Town only if they did). Personally, I will say - The closest and de facto China town is the suburb: Petaling Jaya (better search for more about that place and do stay the hotels there (tons of very good BNBs) and hotela there, very convenient (much less packed) easy to go around (very easy to go around - by Grab(local Uber)...from there - most of the tourists (even in Asia) miss to find that place. Regardless of which ethic groups (all Grab drivers ever met, very nice and give you and 100% sense of safety)! (TheGrab - local Uber system is tightly regulated by the Malaysian government by though exams, background and health check on the driver to get and keep the license to operate Grab)
Hosting a Successful International Event: One of the best moments in Malaysia in 2023 was the successful hosting of a major international event, such as the World Economic Forum or a global sporting event. Malaysia's ability to organize and manage such a large-scale event showcased its capabilities on the global stage. The event not only attracted world leaders, prominent figures, and participants from various countries but also brought significant economic and cultural benefits to Malaysia. It was a proud moment for the nation, highlighting its capacity to host and excel in international gatherings
I hope Malaysian Hindus would take a huge note of complains on one of their famous temples. If the government or authority being tied with birocracy etc…then the Hindu community must do something to ensure Batu Cave is not being seen as a mirror image of dirty, filty kind of place. This is your sacred temple and the faithful Hindus should feel very ashamed with so much negative contents on youtube and media. If we watched those youtube videos covering places of worship in Malaysia, be it Buddhist temples, Gudwara or muslim mosques…all were given a huge thumb up in term of cleanliness but hindu temple in Batu Cave has been in the very bad light. Malaysia government must really look into this and the right thing to do by the Hindus is….get your hands dirty to ensure Batu Cave is clean and properly managed. Your religion’s reputation at stake here.
@@fishyfieable it’s the management of batu caves. Unfortunately the normal public ‘ Hindu ppl’ that you mention are unable to do anything except complain . The way you put it as though the whole Hindu religion in Malaysia need to clean up their image.chose your words wise INSTEAD. why you hate so much about Hinduism.
I am surprised no complaints on the public toilets...its relatively horrible...we dont expect the toilets to be super clean and sometimes fancy like America or Europe but at least reasonably clean and not broken down....
clean public toilets in America and Europe?You kidding me?!Just try the ones in central London like Piccadilly Circus and you will know what I mean!The country with clean public toilets is Japan!
I dun know man, after experience and experience we local can figure toilet condition from the outside. The best is in mosque, second is petron gas station, third is in supermarket.
_An honest remark about the state of filth in batu caves, should be proactive there is no need to give excuses because of monkeys and so on, to the authorities please pay attention to overcome the problem before the situation gets worse._
Agree 💯 take the bitter part as a turning point. Batu Caves should pay attention to cleanliness. A sacred place to be in dirty place? that's sound so wrong. There's no excuses to be in that way. Get em clean, otherwise scrap it off frm tourist attraction like Japan did.
Do Muslims visit any Hindu temples? Thaipusam I have seen even Chinese celebrate but Malays keep away from everything except mosques. So you have no right to speak about batu caves
I totally agree about the tourist opinion obout Batu Cave. The temple management should do something to make sure the temple area is free of garbage! Impose small amount of entry fee for tourist so they can employ more workers to clean the temple area!
KL is not that bad at all. In the past 20 years, they ve eradicated all the slum areas, upgrade the transportation system, clean the river and provide as sort of transit centre to take care of the homeless. It s not new york or tokyo, but at least it has everything we ever need.
Many vloggers said Batu Caves is *dirty* Batu Caves authority should ban plastic items in that area. And the authority should prohibit public from bringing/sell/feed monkeys with cooked/process foods (biodegradable fruit likes bananas & coconut perhaps permissible as ‘action’ to feed ‘sacred animal’)
Mmg pun kawasan Batu caves tu Kotor Dari dulu sampai sekarang, penganut Dan pentadbir Batu caves tu Sila ambik perhatian tentang kebersihan, malu lah bila pelancong ckp Batu cave, lot of rubbish and dirty.
awesome comments there... thanks for highlighting those improvements that need to be done... hopefully Majlis Perbandaran Selayang (Selayang Municipal Council) will come up with good solution soonest...
Chai, great video. Batu Caves is an Indian temple and a private property. I don’t think the temple committee has enough fund to hire cleaners to cleanup the place. Also, I don’t think the government and the municipal council will spend money to hire cleaners. Probably rich tycoons such as Ananda Krishnan of Maxis Group or Tony Fernandes of Air Asia will be generous enough to adopt and support Batu Caves to take care the temple as part of corporate social responsibility effort.
They can do 1 time charity ‘gotong-royong’/communal works & constant restrictions for visitors to maintain cleanliness forever. If they restrict visitors from feeding monkeys, restrict visitors from bringing food & plastic items (bottle & plastic packaging), restrict seller from selling food inside the complex…. The complex area will be clean enough in longer period, so no need to pay daily cleaners.
@@tg988 hmmm I don’t know if the Batu Caves committee already aware/informed about this matter or not… since 2019, my hobby is watching vlogs from foreigners who travels in Malaysia. Most of them who visited Batu Caves complain about the rubbish & bad smell in their vlogs… but still no action from Batu Cave committee since 2019…. Even already 2023, still there’s no restrictions ‘signboard’ inside complex area…
So jgn reply komen negatif terhadap dyeorang sbb dyeorang travel malaysia dan itu la komen jujur dyeorang..so kita sbgai rakyat Malaysia jgn marah la sbb kita kne trima..dan lakukan prubahan..so trima ngn hati terbuka sbb malaysia byk trdiri byk kaum bangsa dan agama..

Based on my personal experienced, when the local sees the "Caucasian", in their minds, these ppl are "God" and literally treated well. On the contrary, there is no place for me to grow as an individual, full of corruptions, and etc. The natures are so much to explore and embrace. I won't go into detail based on my personal experiences. It is great to leave something behind with memories. Perhaps Chai will convince me to revisit and perhaps meet up with him over there to explore these places together as a tourist. !!
I hope less tourists promoting Malaysia for now, we're still stuck as a developing country for so many years + corruption, so many things Malaysia need to improve, not just our facilities & cleanliness, this includes some Malaysian mind set & common sense. I like when people give an honest reviews, i hate sugarcoating because i know how bad Malaysia is. Let us improve ourselves first.
Mode of transportation especially the online taxi is actually very convenient. You can use other providers; maxim, airasiaride, etc. If you choose to only use Grab, expect longer waiting time due to less drivers perhaps..
Yeah, I used the AirAsia app to book a ride to the airport in Penang. It was half the price of a regular taxi and was prompt. There is plenty of choice.
Yes i absolutely agree that the batu cave was the most dirtiest place to visit in KL, although I stayed 2 nights in KL,i do suggest that the authority must take some action to improve it 😊
2:26 "sometimes waiting or 20 to 30 mins to get a grab" tips for foreigners, if you want to get a grab quick, avoid peak hours ie: right after office hours cuz people get back from work so its the traffic is abit congested (weekdays, 4pm-8pm), and if u using grab when its raining, its a given that its late because people will drive slower on the road = causes traffic jam
Thank you to those visitors who gave a positive and negative comments about Malaysia.The best thing in Malaysia is, the weather and the foods. Another thing is, communication. Malaysia is the 3rd places English speaking in South East Asia so communication is not an issue in Malaysia. The advantage about Malaysia is, even we have unstable politic in Malaysia which is the issue not resolve yet, but that only domestic issue which is not effect to the foreign travellers. We still can offer the save environment and other convinience goes as usual, the law and enforments go on as usual. Last, but not least, welcome to Malaysia and please come again to boost our economy and enjoy the provided hospitality.
I was in malaysia last month and I have problem communicating with people..only like about 40% of malaysian speak English. I remember I was in larkin terminal waiting for coach and I don't understand malay language so I ask the counter and I got shouted
@@patrickkam7174 Am sorry about that... thats rare incident and new experience.Malaysian, At least, with basic English,and fact,English started learning in our primary education and it is sound weird, but possible to happen by the way.. For the information, to qualify for University in Malaysia, they need to pass the English test. Am sorry about u bd...it's shabby.
I had friends over for CNY from UK. It's the vandalism & thrown rubbish & spitting on floors that really put them off. Noise Pollution & traffic jams were their complaints. Worst when they have a flight to catch. Food, was their favourite haunting ground. To them it was very cheap, tasty + variety to choose from. 4 myself, l packed my own food & drinks when l am with them.
No earthquake, no hurricane, no guns(you can safely walk at night), less alcohol, less crime, less racism, cheap food & accomodation and affordable transport fares etc etc But....still there are malaysians not that thankful to all of the above. -ANON (10 years in USA experience)
There's a lot of petty crime in Malaysia, also it isn't really safe walking at night at least for women. Depends on areas. Less racism is just total bs, Malaysia is one of the most racist country in the world. Institution racism not social.
@@azhariarif we Malaysian Malays always grateful for our beautiful country but some yeah they love to mock their own country and being racist. They should be grateful. I don’t need to mention which and which or who coz I believe everyone knows knows who I’m talking about.
The only problem I have is the older public transport, such as the Kelana Jaya Line LRT, on jeletek station it's literally unwalkable unless you live at the datum jeletek apartment, run across or next to a busy road risking yourself. How about KL Sentral station? They should tweak some things like adding travellators on the station walkway to the MRT, elevators and extra bridges that link the monorail directly from KL Sentral instead of having to walk through NU sentral mall. They should refurbish the Kuala Lumpur KTM station, add more frequency to the KTM lines, and so much more, the public transport has so much potential that isn't realized...
Batu Caves is very close to KL and its splendour is one of its kind. But, yes why the monkey? I accidently touch their poo as I was holding the stair rails but luckily I found a running water in the caves to wash it off.
Batu Caves is natural habitat for monkey from those area. They even existed way before the temple was erected. Maybe what the authority can do is to discourage feeding of these monkey, maybe prepare feeding spot in the jungle area close to Batu Caves so they wont disturb temple area again
I'm living here now for 5 years. The good things are friendly people, great food and a lot of interesting places to visit. The bad? People don't obey the traffic laws, use and throw away too much plastic like they don't care as long as they don't have to hold it.

Once again: I visited so much places, like KL, Cameron Highlands, Penang, Langkawi, Kuching, KK, and Sandakan,Borneo and so on and I want to repeat it all! Malaysia, truly Asia!
Nice one Walter 😁 you absolutely love it! It’s time to go back again
us Malaysians aren't into Batu caves either. go to
Ipoh, so many cool caves near there as well as around that area that you can explore.
@@hagridlemonhead611 Ipoh is planned to be visited on my next trip in November/december! Terima kasih!!
wow welcome back soon....try visit north states like kedah/perlis for its serenity..paddy field view n visit langkawi island from there❤
@@NoeYahy Terima kasih! I already visited Langkawi several times and want to come back as soon as possible! And yes: Kedah, Perlis etc. is my next aim to visit! ♥
Thank you for your content. We appreciate their opinions, and this should be brought to the authorities' attention to alleviate the issue.Good job sir

I lived in KL (mostly PJ) from 2009 into 2018. I was there for MH370 and Kim Jong-nam (KLIA2). Flew in and out of LCCT to the Singapore Budget Terminal many times. I'm not a tourist and never considered myself one. Hopefully I'll be back for an even longer stay soon. I loved the LRT, KTM, Rapid KL, PJ City Bus, Metrobus, Bas MIni, Sunway Shuttle, MRT, etc. 👍

People are amazing, so friendly and the amount of people that speak English is incredible, the natural attractions could be some of the best in the world but unfortunately are let down by the rubbish that’s everywhere and also the lack of maintenance, before long some of these will need a massive overhaul or will have to be closed to the public, the rubbish is the worst part about Malaysia, the only place where rubbish didn’t seem an issue compared to the rest of the country was Malacca, all in all an amazing country and people tho
I've heard in Singapore that you'd have to pay a hefty fine for littering..How different is the case in Malaysia? Are the laws for penalizing littering too lax in Malaysia?
🎉🎉🎉malacca is the only state that really take care of environtment..both in town or village🎉🎉🎉
@@pinetworkminer8377 tbh, there is some rule but it is not been enforced much in Malaysia.
I am currently on holidays in Malaysia for 20 days. I love this city, you will never get bored as there is so much to do and see.
Some of the things Malaysia could improve on as per my opinion are:
- the pedestrian walkways are really rough and uneven in some parts in the city. Some places as your walking on flat surface it becomes stairs and its really hard to get around when you have a pram or, people in wheelchairs/disability and elderly etc.
- sometimes there is no crossing areas and you literally have to cross a massive road with so much cars and you could be waiting for so long as the traffic is alot.
-also i agree with the comment about the batu caves being very dirty as I just went yesterday and it was really filthy. This surprising bc i thought places of worship would be very clean.
-grab was a hit and missed for me as well. Its probably my fault as a foreigner not knowing area.
Thats all i could think of. So far i am loving being here, thank to all the lovely Malaysian people for welcoming us to your country.
Awesome! I'm glad you enjoy it all Thanks for sharing your experiences :D Have a wonderful time ❤️
The reason tourists go to Batu Caves are due to curiosity about a unique or'exotic' experience and the prospect of seing strange structures and artifacts in the temple apart from observing the ritualistic activities by the Hindu devotees.Normally it's a once in a lifetime thing for foreigners due to the reasons you all already know.However we hope things will improve someday somehow.
Isn't that true for every religious structure? People go to see them for their exotic nature. Why just target batu caves. Its not as if surroundings of other tourist places in the world are squeaky clean
Every place must be clean..please make this as a culture..no excuse..
@@prettycinta8598 tell that to Muslims around the world who live in dirtiest of all places
I am English and Malaysia is incredible..I absolutely love the place. The people are absolutely beautiful, amazing hospitality, great food, stunning country 🇺🇲 4th visit and that will be 5th next year when i go bk to Kota Kinabalu via Mt Kinabalu to Sepilok and Semporna. Any recommendations please let me know
Sweet mate! I’ve never travelled there before I’m sorry. I’m sure you’ll find some good spots 😁. Cheers!
Our family loved our trip in Malaysia with out kids. Lots of fun places to see and things to do. We loved it so much that we are planning to return this summer. The only major complaint I have about Malaysia was that we found that washrooms were not as clean as it probably should be being a Muslim country. Traveling with kids they have to potty a lot sometimes and there were often times where even the toilet seats were missing (KLCC mall) We found ourselves running around trying to find other washrooms. Toilet paper being completely empty and out of stock. The condition of the washrooms overall was bad in my opinion- especially the water cleaning thing by the toilets. The 2nd biggest one, was the roads and the random sidewalks with the holes in it, random wires hanging in the more rougher parts. It's generally a very beautiful and incredible country, but I would say if these 2 things could be fixed and the overall budget to making it more tourist pleasant Malaysia could attract more tourism. Mind you our trip was at the end 2019 just before covid became official. So things might be different now.
Thanks for your input and I’m pleased to hear that after all you had a good time :) Malaysia is in many ways behind when it comes to accommodating tourists. A lot to do for Malaysia tourism authorities. Until then, it remains an amazing country which has so much to offer but maybe not so much for mainstream travels (which makes it more interesting for us 😜)
Thanks again for sharing your experience 😊
If only our representatives don't talk a lot .
The toilet issue is bad and can't see it improving for a long while. For someone who often runs to the loo after a meal it is really inconvenient. I have to stuff my bag with toilet paper too.
Tq for their comments, i hope the negetive comment about Batu Caves must to be taken actions by City Council to produce an idea how to solve the problem to convince the tourist that the area will be cleaned, as soon as possible..
Thank you for watching mate Azidin

Again I heard a criticism regarding the cleanliness of the Batu Cave. Of course we do not expect to hear all the complement about our city of KL all the time but if the complain is focuses one spot, I would delete the place from my recommendation list whenever people seek my advice till there is improvement to the place. It’s just bring us the embracement if we heard the complain over and over again on the same place. Nonetheless, thank you so much for your kind of promotion of our country.

to be honest, I went to Batu Cave 10 years ago & recently a year ago. Sadly the rubbish situation did not improve. I wonder why? I thought maybe because some people are feeding the monkey & left the rubbish there or maybe the monkey went through the garbage bin & scatter the rubbish around? It is sad. I tried to collect the garbage but there was too much garbage. The local government need to step up in managing this garbage situation. I dare say Batu Cave is the dirtiest tourist attraction in Malaysia ngl.

i have been back and forth to Malaysia for over 20+ years, China town (ONLY only hit there once - very old fashioned tourists spot) and BUKIT Bintang (not more than 6-8 times, 2 times in the recent visit in Feb 2023 for the AMAZING Syrian Foods, Solely for the reasons of good foods - other than that - if you go around that area - will find it boring if you are not interested in Luxury Brands shops and jammed traffic all the times almost -most Malaysian living in other areas are not keen to go include cab and Grab drivers - i guess).....Other than that , visiting any where outside the core KL, and other towns and cities Like: Penang, Ipoh, Cameron Highland - and the plantation and tea plantation there (you will find your in certain part of country side of England suddenly - quite intersting) etc etc should be giving you a different and more genuine feel / impression and u and understanding of Malaysia. Not surprising to have the experience of the Danish couple if they stayed mainly in core KL and going around Bukit Bintang and China Town only if they did). Personally, I will say - The closest and de facto China town is the suburb: Petaling Jaya (better search for more about that place and do stay the hotels there (tons of very good BNBs) and hotela there, very convenient (much less packed) easy to go around (very easy to go around - by Grab(local Uber)...from there - most of the tourists (even in Asia) miss to find that place. Regardless of which ethic groups (all Grab drivers ever met, very nice and give you and 100% sense of safety)! (TheGrab - local Uber system is tightly regulated by the Malaysian government by though exams, background and health check on the driver to get and keep the license to operate Grab)

Hosting a Successful International Event: One of the best moments in Malaysia in 2023 was the successful hosting of a major international event, such as the World Economic Forum or a global sporting event. Malaysia's ability to organize and manage such a large-scale event showcased its capabilities on the global stage. The event not only attracted world leaders, prominent figures, and participants from various countries but also brought significant economic and cultural benefits to Malaysia. It was a proud moment for the nation, highlighting its capacity to host and excel in international gatherings
Nice! Thanks for the tip! I might be able to fly over to see if I can interview with some people 😁
I hope Malaysian Hindus would take a huge note of complains on one of their famous temples.
If the government or authority being tied with birocracy etc…then the Hindu community must do something to ensure Batu Cave is not being seen as a mirror image of dirty, filty kind of place.
This is your sacred temple and the faithful Hindus should feel very ashamed with so much negative contents on youtube and media.
If we watched those youtube videos covering places of worship in Malaysia, be it Buddhist temples, Gudwara or muslim mosques…all were given a huge thumb up in term of cleanliness but hindu temple in Batu Cave has been in the very bad light.
Malaysia government must really look into this and the right thing to do by the Hindus is….get your hands dirty to ensure Batu Cave is clean and properly managed. Your religion’s reputation at stake here.
Very well worded! Indeed the hindus have a lot to do to clean up their image.
Muslims live in some of the dirtiest areas of the world. So better keep quiet.
@@fishyfieable it’s the management of batu caves. Unfortunately the normal public ‘ Hindu ppl’ that you mention are unable to do anything except complain . The way you put it as though the whole Hindu religion in Malaysia need to clean up their image.chose your words wise INSTEAD. why you hate so much about Hinduism.
Hope our Malaysian Hindus can advise their fellow Hindus of Bharatia Janata to treat the Indian Muslims well and humanely.
@@manchokrowchokrow1876 first let Muslims act truly secular instead of one way racist policies wherever they are in majority. Stop crying.
I am surprised no complaints on the public toilets...its relatively horrible...we dont expect the toilets to be super clean and sometimes fancy like America or Europe but at least reasonably clean and not broken down....
clean public toilets in America and Europe?You kidding me?!Just try the ones in central London like Piccadilly Circus and you will know what I mean!The country with clean public toilets is Japan!
I dun know man, after experience and experience we local can figure toilet condition from the outside. The best is in mosque, second is petron gas station, third is in supermarket.
Like America.?...which part?

_An honest remark about the state of filth in batu caves, should be proactive there is no need to give excuses because of monkeys and so on, to the authorities please pay attention to overcome the problem before the situation gets worse._
absolutely agree with you on this!
Agree 💯 take the bitter part as a turning point. Batu Caves should pay attention to cleanliness. A sacred place to be in dirty place? that's sound so wrong. There's no excuses to be in that way. Get em clean, otherwise scrap it off frm tourist attraction like Japan did.
Should see what the TH-camr Vlogging a Dead horse said about Batu Caves. He really dissed it.
Do Muslims visit any Hindu temples? Thaipusam I have seen even Chinese celebrate but Malays keep away from everything except mosques. So you have no right to speak about batu caves

I totally agree about the tourist opinion obout Batu Cave. The temple management should do something to make sure the temple area is free of garbage! Impose small amount of entry fee for tourist so they can employ more workers to clean the temple area!
Thank you for all the videos. Hope you like the trip. From Sabah.

KL is not that bad at all. In the past 20 years, they ve eradicated all the slum areas, upgrade the transportation system, clean the river and provide as sort of transit centre to take care of the homeless. It s not new york or tokyo, but at least it has everything we ever need.
Homelessness still exist
@@hansared8668 hence the transit centre.
Many vloggers said Batu Caves is *dirty*
Batu Caves authority should ban plastic items in that area. And the authority should prohibit public from bringing/sell/feed monkeys with cooked/process foods (biodegradable fruit likes bananas & coconut perhaps permissible as ‘action’ to feed ‘sacred animal’)
Mmg pun kawasan Batu caves tu Kotor Dari dulu sampai sekarang, penganut Dan pentadbir Batu caves tu Sila ambik perhatian tentang kebersihan, malu lah bila pelancong ckp Batu cave, lot of rubbish and dirty.

awesome comments there... thanks for highlighting those improvements that need to be done... hopefully Majlis Perbandaran Selayang (Selayang Municipal Council) will come up with good solution soonest...
Thanks you :)
Chai, great video. Batu Caves is an Indian temple and a private property. I don’t think the temple committee has enough fund to hire cleaners to cleanup the place. Also, I don’t think the government and the municipal council will spend money to hire cleaners. Probably rich tycoons such as Ananda Krishnan of Maxis Group or Tony Fernandes of Air Asia will be generous enough to adopt and support Batu Caves to take care the temple as part of corporate social responsibility effort.
They can do 1 time charity ‘gotong-royong’/communal works & constant restrictions for visitors to maintain cleanliness forever.
If they restrict visitors from feeding monkeys, restrict visitors from bringing food & plastic items (bottle & plastic packaging), restrict seller from selling food inside the complex…. The complex area will be clean enough in longer period, so no need to pay daily cleaners.
@@user-tl9wv6wu9h Brilliant idea. It looks implementable. Proceed to pass the idea to the temple committee.
@@tg988 hmmm I don’t know if the Batu Caves committee already aware/informed about this matter or not… since 2019, my hobby is watching vlogs from foreigners who travels in Malaysia. Most of them who visited Batu Caves complain about the rubbish & bad smell in their vlogs… but still no action from Batu Cave committee since 2019…. Even already 2023, still there’s no restrictions ‘signboard’ inside complex area…
Why don't the commitee charge 1 rgt to every visitor , money can use for hiring cleaners.
Pure excuses

Based on my personal experienced, when the local sees the "Caucasian", in their minds, these ppl are "God" and literally treated well. On the contrary, there is no place for me to grow as an individual, full of corruptions, and etc. The natures are so much to explore and embrace. I won't go into detail based on my personal experiences. It is great to leave something behind with memories. Perhaps Chai will convince me to revisit and perhaps meet up with him over there to explore these places together as a tourist. !!
I hope less tourists promoting Malaysia for now, we're still stuck as a developing country for so many years + corruption, so many things Malaysia need to improve, not just our facilities & cleanliness, this includes some Malaysian mind set & common sense.
I like when people give an honest reviews, i hate sugarcoating because i know how bad Malaysia is.
Let us improve ourselves first.
Ow I wouldn’t say Malaysia is bad at all. Of course like every country it has to improve on some things. No country is “perfect”
Mode of transportation especially the online taxi is actually very convenient. You can use other providers; maxim, airasiaride, etc. If you choose to only use Grab, expect longer waiting time due to less drivers perhaps..
Nice info there! Thanks Faridah :D that's very helpful :)
Yeah, I used the AirAsia app to book a ride to the airport in Penang. It was half the price of a regular taxi and was prompt.
There is plenty of choice.
hahaha we also as Malaysian doesn't satisfy with the cleanliness Singapore is way better regarding cleanliness
Yes i absolutely agree that the batu cave was the most dirtiest place to visit in KL, although I stayed 2 nights in KL,i do suggest that the authority must take some action to improve it 😊

"sometimes waiting or 20 to 30 mins to get a grab"
tips for foreigners, if you want to get a grab quick, avoid peak hours ie: right after office hours cuz people get back from work so its the traffic is abit congested (weekdays, 4pm-8pm), and if u using grab when its raining, its a given that its late because people will drive slower on the road = causes traffic jam
Thanks for the tip! 🙏😊
KL is congested quite a lot 😅 not that it can be helped, I'd say sometimes the MRT is your next best option. 😊
Thank goodness for Grab and the likes. My pet peeve previously was dishonest taxi drivers who didn't use meters.
Thank you to those visitors who gave a positive and negative comments about Malaysia.The best thing in Malaysia is, the weather and the foods. Another thing is, communication. Malaysia is the 3rd places English speaking in South East Asia so communication is not an issue in Malaysia. The advantage about Malaysia is, even we have unstable politic in Malaysia which is the issue not resolve yet, but that only domestic issue which is not effect to the foreign travellers. We still can offer the save environment and other convinience goes as usual, the law and enforments go on as usual. Last, but not least, welcome to Malaysia and please come again to boost our economy and enjoy the provided hospitality.

I had friends over for CNY from UK. It's the vandalism & thrown rubbish & spitting on floors that really put them off. Noise Pollution & traffic jams were their complaints. Worst when they have a flight to catch. Food, was their favourite haunting ground. To them it was very cheap, tasty + variety to choose from. 4 myself, l packed my own food & drinks when l am with them.
I believe this happens anywhere. I ve been faced some like that in europe, china, india indonesia.thought its not good but it can happens anywhere
No earthquake, no hurricane, no guns(you can safely walk at night), less alcohol, less crime, less racism, cheap food & accomodation and affordable transport fares etc etc
But....still there are malaysians not that thankful to all of the above.

The only problem I have is the older public transport, such as the Kelana Jaya Line LRT, on jeletek station it's literally unwalkable unless you live at the datum jeletek apartment, run across or next to a busy road risking yourself. How about KL Sentral station? They should tweak some things like adding travellators on the station walkway to the MRT, elevators and extra bridges that link the monorail directly from KL Sentral instead of having to walk through NU sentral mall. They should refurbish the Kuala Lumpur KTM station, add more frequency to the KTM lines, and so much more, the public transport has so much potential that isn't realized...
I love it it's safe and more food choices 😅
Well done, Nikko!

hahaha thats a funny story :P thanks for shaving that! Cheeers!
Batu Caves is natural habitat for monkey from those area. They even existed way before the temple was erected. Maybe what the authority can do is to discourage feeding of these monkey, maybe prepare feeding spot in the jungle area close to Batu Caves so they wont disturb temple area again
