Hi Zane, I am from Singapore and have many friends and relatives in Malaysia including KL. I am going to answer your questions since I see your curiosity. For the Chinese and Hindu temples, people worship deities and you do not visit the deities empty handed. So, the Hindus will bring offerings such as flowers, milk, coconuts, etc. For the Chinese, they will usually bring apples, oranges and Chrysanthemum flowers. The Hindus want to show their dedication to their deities by spending a lot of time to gather many types of flowers and arrange them in a necklace. It is a piece of hardwork and art for the deity. Also, to show further dedication and love for the deity, some Hindus will carry a metal pot of cow milk on their heads and walk like the Balinese carrying their baskets or pails full of harvest on their heads. About the feeding of the pigeons and monkeys, the Hindus and Buddhists would choose to show their compassion by feeding the animals and on Wesak Day or Buddha's Day, doves and turtles will be released to show compassion and peace. Therefore, it is ok to the Hindus if there is garbage on the staircase such as banana skin, left over foods, plastic bags, bottles which are left over by the monkeys and human visitors because feeding the monkeys will cause unavoidable littering. The garbage will be cleared later in the evening after the last prayer of the day. After the discovery by Nasa satellite of the Adam's bridge which was built by Hanuman's ape army, the Ramayana epic has been popular in modern times and that is why the Hanuman statue was built not long ago in Batu Caves. There are about 7 million migrant workers in Malaysia making it about 7/33 = 22% of the population of whole Malaysia including Borneo However KL has the most job opportunities for the migrant workers and one out of three person you bump into in KL could be a foreigner and those who can't speak English at all are newly arrived migrant workers. Cheers from Singapore and enjoy your travel.
Thank you for this comment! I really enjoyed reading this 🙏
Hi there, I think some of the fact here is incorrect. The 7 million that you are referring to is not the migrant workers, they are Malaysian that has been in Malaysia for more than 2/3 decades which means they are the citizen. Also the hanuman statue was there before the found of Adam bridge issue become famous not after. The only statue that I’m seeing in this video is lord muruga and not hanuman. Before replying to any video, get your fact right
Also to add on here, lord murugan statue in batu caves is the second tallest statue since 2 years. The 1st statue now in Tamil Nadu. And the significant of lord muruga, he is knows as (tamil kaduval) Tamil god. Most South Indian - Tamil people worshiped lord murugan. Lord muruga also known as god of war, primary deities in Temple wherever tamil people live worldwide.
@@aiswaryamuniandy5011 immigrant that came after 1957 not citizen. fullstop !
@@azmirahmad1181 which immigrant came after 1957? Are you referring to Rohinya? Coz they came here many time after that.
Hi. Those ppl are not conversant in english, that's why. Otherwise they are more than.happy to help
Its probably not indian Malaysians, they are from india
@@Itsvivx99they are Malaysians so stop denying them
Hahaha.. most of the sellers are foreign workers and not fluent in English.. The Malaysian Indian will be happy if they can converse in English with you..
@@richardnuevo Malaysian Indians are quite good in English, English is their second language in Malaysia..
There are about 7 million foreign workers in Malaysia. Most of the restaurants, bars, shops hire foreign workers from the neighbouring countries. Even North Korean workers are hired for some jobs in East Malaysia. Most of these foreign workers can't speak English. Also some Malaysians can't speak English well.
Kuala Lumpur is amazing city 🏙️ love your videos ❤❤
There is an over 100 years old Malay traditional house in KL city known as "Rumah Penghulu Abu Seman" located opposite across the street from Royale Chulan Hotel. Visitors can enter the house by joining a guided tour at 3pm (RM10 entrance fee). You can combine your visit of this traditional house with the KL Craft Complex which located nearby.
Okay kid, I’m researching Kuala Lumpur. Followed, right place right time. Enjoyed the Vlog🙏🏻
KL looks so much fun!!!
Yes littering is still a major problem here in Malaysia. Hard to break bad habit.
Welcome to Malaysia Zane
The first time I ever visited Batu Caves back in 1998 during Thaipusam Festival not forget to mention the crowd,back then and now past 28 years live here in KL
I love KL City ! ❤
Enjoy Zane 🎉
*Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾Truly Asia Good foods, rainforest good beach & others many More Enjoyed thanks sharing good videos*
🇲🇾♥️💖💗💗🤩🥰🇲🇾💖❤️🩹💗♥️💝🤩🇲🇾
Thank u for this video n for showing your explorations in KL.
You miss the most popular KLCC show off, Symphony Lake, as well as the nightly Dancing Fountain show, you have to go there
Welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 ❤
suria klcc, pavillion and star hill are the most luxurious malls in KL..
Those peoples whom are selling flowers are not Malaysian they are from india whom are working for their Malaysian Indian boss’s over here and they not good in their English and the flowers are a offering to the deity’s .
Great video ....going to KL next March so great info. I'm staying near Healy Macs bar so definitely visit there...thanks for sharing GD🇮🇪
For nightlife, you need to go to changkat Bukit Bintang near jalan alor. Lots of restaurants and bars
I think you missed the KLCC park, totally worth visiting
are you new. lmao
Go to the Bangsar neighbourhood of KL many expats love it there.....
Hi there, welcome to Malaysia. 😊 You should visit the beautiful KLCC park just behind the Petronss Twin Towers. It comes alive at night with the water fountain show. Also, you can go to the River of Life near the Merdeka Square. Make sure you go after 7:00pm as they will light up the area that will blow your mind away. 😊
The flowers are a form of offering for the deities🙏
The bridge tour used to be FOC 20 years ago. But these days, if I want to enjoy the view of the Twin Towers at lunch, I'd go to Marini's at 57. They serve quite good Italian food. There used to be a Nobu restaurant across Marini's but they had moved to Four Seasons KL next door. I ❤️ their set lunch and would have my meetings there, sometimes.
Fun Facts. You can actually see Genting Highlands from Kuala Lumpur during night
❤Malaysia 🇲🇾 & Kuala Lumpur/"KL" = Truly Asia❣
I was there on a Monday. Was told the sky bridge was closed on Monday. I couldn’t get a ticket 🎟️
Wow that's a really beautiful place! I appreciate all your videos and I'm glad you have company 😊
You missed the main park with the playground and fountain on the other side with a picturesque view of KLCC,
This much smaller mall compare to other malls near you . Go to Midvalley Megamall, One Utama, Sunway Pyramid, Berjaya Time Square. You will be tired walking hahaha and it's more local feels.
❤ NICE ❤ 🙏🙏👍👍👍
Wow, I haven't seen any homeless so far. Good job KL!!!
I don't think I ever see any homeless within Klang Valley area for my entire life living here.
Hello Zane, the flower seller is not local, they are from India. They donts understand you. They are selling flowers to make money without knowing or understand the flower significant in their prayers. Your info on the hindu god and religion is far better.. 😊😊
Why aren't you take a walk at the klcc park.. it's like the most tourist favourite port to brisk walk, hangout n take a breath... full of greeneries and recreational park for families and expats..
Offerings to the dieties and ancestors I think. I’ve been there 💛✨
They don't want to explain the relevance of the flower's but told Zane " U Can Pay Here " 😂 The special effect that was used after Zane asked within his video 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sian, kena palau mat ...aiyoooo 😅 bikin malu ajaaa kikiki
welcome to my country bro
That is hand made sew flowers to dedicated to lord for prayers symbol of thanking god
U should go ro KLCC back entrance...back entrance will lead u to a park with fountain ⛲...
The flowers is for the Deities of Hinduism. Actually Hinduism has a great influence on South East Asia countries like Cambodia ( Angkor Wat), Indonesia ( Borrobodhur Temple & Bali), Myanmar, Thailand etc. Hinduism came before Islam to SEA.
The 1st ruler of Melaka Parameswara was a Hindu. The Lembah Bujang remain of a Hindu Temple is another historical side.
I consulted the great google. The flowers are an offering to the Hindu Gods
If I'm not mistaken, those flowers would be used in the religious rituals, including adorning the deities with them as part of the rituals. So you guessed correctly.
The flowers is for prayer and offering
About the flowers, I am Chinese but the flowers are meant for India, I am still 9 so I don't know if it's right but it means that when there is a wedding or like party and was host by Indias, They will wear them to show respect. Please tell me if I'm wrong.
Good Luck Malaysia!
Woww.. Nice vlog..
Those Indian are probably migrant workers who work for their Malaysian Indian bosses. Had they been Malaysian Indians, they would be able to converse in English as English is one of the compulsory subjects in school. Just like the 3 Malaysian Indians you talked to from ntv7.
In Malaysia, the bigger the mall, the bigger the foodcourt, the more the choice that you have.
The next visit to Bali Island,,Labuan Bajo & Lombok Island
U r absolutely right .. sadly to see to many rubbish just simply throwing here n there.
Flowers are “offerings“ to their's Gods /Goddess
Visit Sunway Pyramid , it's a fun mall
You should ask people if they speak English first instead of just assuming they're ignoring you or being rude. Pro tip when traveling to foreign, non-English speaking countries!
Malaysians generally can speak English or at least able to reply in English. Those people definitely not malaysians. Immigrant workers.
i think you got the roasted chicken rice, maybe can try the barbeque chicken rice next time :)
❤❤❤
Hey Zane, for those flower shops that you did not get answers from, they're actually immigrant workers from India and commonly do not speak much English. Flowers are just an offering you bring to the gods as not to go empty handed - Its somewhat similar as welcoming neighbors with wine and chocolates. And as for the huge lord Murugan statue - Hinduism is a religion with thousands of gods and certain gods symbolizes certain virtues. Such as, there is god of wealth, god of protection, god of health and so forth. Lord Murugan symbolizes the warrior god who fights for peace and union. And those animals symbolizes god buddies or followers along those lines. And the KLCC tower was once a turf club and its owned by the National Malaysian Petroleum company - Petronas. I hope you have some clarity with the info- provided. You can thank me now. lol
It is likely they didnt understand what you were asking, they could potentially be foreign workers as there are a lot of foreign workers in Malaysia, or they did not learn English, some of the less fortunate Malaysian Indians have not received the best education, but if you spoke to them in Tamil or Malay they would likely be more than happy to explain the significance of the flowers. Btw, Malaysia is known to have some of the best malls in the world, Suria KLCC is not even considered to be a large mall comparative to 1Utama or Megamall, let alone Sunway Pyramid that has a whole water park attached to it. The only place, i believe if you see online, that rivals Malaysia in Malls is Dubai.
Suria klcc is not even the largest mall in Malaysia.
Its a garland .. wear like a necklace.
In Batu Cave , The Indian Malaysia can’t tell you the flowers mean ! Because maybe they can’t speak very well English.🤝🤝
I think they are not Malaysian.. the Malaysian Indians will be very happy to speak in English..
They definitely NOT malaysians at all. Must be immigrant workers.
Malaysian Indians generally can reply in English very well.
They are Indian India not Malaysian. I've been there many times and always spend few hours, there is one Muslim coffee shop i always spend time too 😁
No Hinduism in Malaysia before British colonialism; Man must have skipped Malaysia history class.
Try to visit JAKARTA the capital city of Indonesia,.. try to visit SCBD area Ashta8, Gand Indonesia, Central Park Tribeca, Mega kuningan, Musium Merdeka, Monas, PIK2,… ext
❤
flower for pray purpose
Try nasi lemak
Hey, what camera do you used, it’s very clear!
GoPro hero 11 black
I kept waiting for him to go to the KLCC park… but he didn’t…
He went earlier in a previous video
The earlier chap did say for prayers but was busy. The first lady cannot speak English.
Those are migrant southern Indian workers, they can't speak English.
Your friend have TH-cam?
Omg that guy gave you wrong info. Hinduism existed in this country even before the other religions did, prolly around the 2nd century which was 1700- 1800 years ago. The earliest was indigenous animism. Just Fyi.
Go and try ramly burger & mcdonalds in malaysia 🤣
You've had rabies shots? Do tell the story...
If you can't fit the Petronas towers in your picture frame do this: Put your camera in Panoramic mode, then pan up rather than side-to-side. It will put the entire tower in one picture frame. Learned this trick years ago in Page AZ at Antelope canyon. Got the canyon from top to bottom in a single frame. I'll have to go back to Petronas, when I was there years ago you could only go up to the bridge. While there I may as well hit the Merdeka 118 tower too! Should be open soon.
I swear no one in Malaysia cooks at home.🤣
The littering mess is caused by the monkeys at the location. People at the location, in general, don't litter at the place.😅
So we should blame the monkeys now for all the mess? So pathetic and totally ignorant.
Human used to pray to Aliens who are also the contributors of our DNA. Hanuman, Ganesh and the blue beings or the Andromedans each come from different sectors of the universe. When Akhenaten taught us to seek the Divine from within, as we are all extensions of that one Creator, the Anunarkis created the monoeisthic religions as a facade, so that they can continue to harvest our energy and create the reality for us, from behind the veil. As long as humanity do not understand this, we will remain divided, even though Malaysia exemplify the racial harmony that the world and the rest of the universe, can aspire to.
A muslim name but full of nonsensical information. May Allah guide u
@@iamurmaktehA fake Muslim
Idk what the indian man is saying. The malays used to be hindus in the past. But they became muslims after the arabs came and traded with the malays. The malay language is an Austronesian language, but it is has a large vocabulary of words that originate from sanskrit, arabic, Portuguese and english.
Wrong, the Malays were Pagans, not Hindus. Only the Ruler Parameswara was a Hindu but he only ruled in a small place in Malacca, one of the smallest state in Malaysia. And Malacca Kingdom only thrives after he embraced Islam. Get your history right especially since there's no evidence of ancient Hindus temples all over Peninsula Malaysia at all, and the indigenous tribes in Malaysia and Borneo are still mostly Pagans, not Hindus.
Welcome to Batu Caves. Sorry to say u can't offer soiled(already worn) flowers to d Gods. Poetic justice, d monkey (representative of Lord Hanuman) is warning u so. U should have observed how others r making their offerings n followed suit. 🤔 Anyway u r absolved because of your ignorance .😉
IIRC Srivijaya and Majapahit empires did influence the Malayan Peninsula way back in the past.
I really wonder what they are teaching their children over there in Malaysia.
"A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots."
Dont worry we never spinned our History. We also been taught how The Modern Malay Language spread rapidly during Malacca Malay Kingdom and known as Lingua Franca at the time 😊.
@@aralynm2433
Revision or scared of own history?
Well Tanah Melayu was a vassal state for Srivijaya & Majapahit Empires back then. Since both empires practised buddhism & hinduism, perhaps some people in Tanah Melayu back then were also influenced and were hindus & buddhist before they reverted to Islam.
@@RUHappyATM whats there to be scared about?
These past empires are touched during history lessons for Malaysian students but it is totally unjustified for you to use your last line to describe the present generation of Malaysians. Just as Palestine was once ruled by various empires like Phoenicia, Canaan, Israel, Assyria, Babylon, Persia, Macedonia, Seleucid, Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk, Mongol, Mameluk, European Crusaders, Ottoman, British etc etc, I challenge you to travel to Palestine today and say, "A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots." directly to the Palestinians and watch what they say or do to you......
Thanks for some comfort watching while I do my tax return. 🤑
6:03 tht guy just told u bs about hinduism in malaysia..mybe he failed history lesson as d founder of melaka parameswara was a hindu and hes not even indian...
Many tourists though the trash is being thrown by a human even though they saw so many monkeys in that place.. When will they accrue the culprits is the monkey that stealing things from a human?? Then throwing it every where..
Yeah, they saw monkeys robbing tourists n those monkeys will definitely not throw bottles n plastics into waste bins
This is where Malaysia politics failed us, they keep bringing in foreigners from India and China and gave them free citizenship to secure the votes for their parties in our General Election, thus there's people who identified themselves as Malaysian but cannot speak any local Malay or English languages. Sad ehh
0:49 - she dont know to talk in English
Strange how some some of the Indians there cannot speak English in an English speaking country.
why those indian sellers are so arrogant. if u dont know just keep smiling. this is not real malaysian hospitality.
Because they are not local Indians. They are migrant workers from India.
I don't think those indians understand you. I suppose they're not Malaysian but foreigners who came from india
