Both of you always mentioning Malay, Chinese and Indian but don't forget about our brothers and sisters in Sarawak and Sabah, the Bidayuh, Melanau, Bajau, Kadazan, Murut and a few more.

I attended a college in upstate NY during the late 1980s, stayed there for about 3.5 years and never had the money to come back to KL during festivities. That whole duration there, I simply miss Malaysian food. Was really tough, tougher than the studies ... 🤗
Awesome video! It was a pleasure meeting you Skye!!! I had lots of fun recording the video!!!! Much love to Malaysia!!! 🇲🇾❤ I can't wait for the next collab 😃
Malaysia truly asia has been Malaysia slogan since the 1990's. On english, I would say KL is probably the #1 or #2 city in terms of english fluency in Asia!!
I thought u were arabic...how polite and soft you speak...might be you arab american...but you real muslim...i like the way u speak...so gentle and softspoken
What distinguishes Malaysian satay is that the peanut sauce is quite fatty and creamy, and the original satay sauce is mostly from Malay cuisine, in fact, it has been served during the Aidilfitri festival since ages ago served with ketupat and lemang.
Yes, Malaysia definitely has one of the most diverse food cultures in the world. There's so many options to choose from besides the usual local Chinese, Malay, and Indian cuisines. They're also the ever popular international cuisine such as Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, and Middle Eastern food options that are readily available everywhere in the city of KL. One will easily put on some pounds if not careful. Lol!😅👌
You both have sum it up nicely about our Malaysia. Not forgetting our brothers n sisters in Sabah and Sarawak as well as from the Asli and Sikh community. Love from 🇲🇾
Don't forget to mention how much each race in Malaysia respects each other's religion ..with Muslim mosques, Hindu themples, Chinese temples n churches built in every other street in the city sometimes along the same street. The government also provides public holidays for each religious festivals and new year, all year long for all Malaysians ..this is the best part of our Malaysia....
We are a commonwealth country, once the British colony. So we have a lot of similarities to UK eg the power, plug, English is taught in school, democratic country, the laws, the parliament etc.
There is another one largest that worth mentioning - Nivana Memorial Park in Semenyih, Selangor. It's the largest Chinese burial land in South East Asia and also one of the largest in Asia. Blew my mind when I first found out about this as I often saw the signboard of this place before.
Best collabs ever! Thank you Skye & Solo..you guys really understand about Malaysia and their people now. ❤ it! You guys promoting and support Malaysia..we will definitely support your efforts back. Ask for more people around the world to come and visit Malaysia. ✌🏻😀🇲🇾
Welcome to Malaysia! I am glad you enjoy visiting my country. Come again and bring your friends and families. Visit other parts of Malaysia too. You'll love it. Malacca, Pulau Langkawi, Palau Pinang, Sabah and Sarawak are waiting for you.
Your guys are so positively infectious in the video ❤. Surprised when you mentioned the top malls and you missed out Midvaley Megamall. It is the biggest in Malaysia and a must to visit. Don't forget to visit Langkawi and climb the Mount Kinabalu in Sabah 😅. Cheers and all the best
Not just plugs...msia is using all in elactric sistem as same as uk standard from generation to transmission...beginning from british colonial...just for your information...the new shopping mall in london (battersea) is owners by msia companies...
I keep telling myself " Charlie looks really different with black hair" 🤣🤣. As a Malaysian I need to be honest, I would not add cleanliness to the list. I mean, you locals know what I mean 🥲. Welcome back Skye! Hope you will enjoy the Chinese New Year festivities this weekend 🧧🧧🧧
I’ve always maintained that garbage collection and trash disposal are huge problems here. Passing open drains and manholes can be an excruciating experience! 😢
Actually as a Malaysian, we all have to agree that our country always keeps the people happy and tries to provide better facilities when it comes to protection, transportation, education, sports, and tourist areas. Now without a shadow of doubt, we can compare Malaysia with the top class countries around the world.
I lived in US 12 years, 1 year in Japan, 3 months in Saudi Arabia. There are good things about US, Japan, Saudi Arabia & Malaysia. There are the downsides too. But that's normal. Countries are their peoples and cultures, and people are humans, no human is perfect. I am Malaysian though..
FYI, here in Malaysia most of Malaysian Quality Standards "MS" are taken from the British Standards "BS". That why the 3 pin electrical plug is a standard here same as the UK.
British first arrived in Malaya/malaysia in the 1800's. british teach english in malaya school and Malaysian have adopted some of their customs, including Afternoon Tea.
Tea is not British customs 😭 It has always been Asian culture introduced by the Chinese. British discovered tea and traded it with opium, a 2 strikes with one stone that destabilised Chinese dynasty and caused Chinese to become opium junkies. The British loves tea so much that they opened tea plantation in Cameron High and Sri Lanka.
@@nutzhazel i dont talk about tea or tea plantation, i said afternoon tea.."Late one afternoon in 1840 the 7th Duchess of Bedford, Lady in Waiting to Queen Victoria, ordered a tray with a pot of tea and a light snack of bread with butter and cake be brought to her room - and invented afternoon tea."
Best beef, lamb and chicken satay is at Sri Hartamas, Nasi Kandar Deen Bistro. You guy should also try out some Chinese local foods around pudu, imbi, old klang road @ jalan klang lama. Not sure if you enjoy night life, but there are a lot of awesome rooftop bars in KL.. I’d highly recommend Marini’s on 57 @ Petronas tower, Vertigo @ Banyan tree, Fuego @ Troika Sky Dining, Skybar @ Traders hotel. These are my fav go to places when I’m back in KL.
The older they are the more likely they speak English. Bcos the teaching medium before circa 1980 was English. I am 66yo and I am more fluent in English compared to BM.
Our English is good, that was why I was able to become a part time supply teacher in Sussex UK teaching Science/Biology from year 7 to A level in the yr 2000/2002 while doing my Masters. Cheers
"Malaysia truly asia" was the tourism tagline for a while Some time back. But its true you can generally find a big of most asia here in malaysia. Especially food.
Malaysia made up of Sarawak (Dayak , Melanau, Kelabit , Kenyah, Kayan Lun Bawang , Orang Ulu & etc) , Malay, Chinese, India & Sabah (Kadazandusun , Bajau, Murut, Lundayeh, Sino & etc)
i’m glad you bring up the plug. when i was in the philippines some years back, i ran into a bit of a pickle because i didn’t know that they use a different type of plug than the one we use here in malaysia. what was supposed to be an easy breezy start to a week-long training session turned into an hour-long frantic search for an adapter to connect my laptop to the power source. the class couldn’t start because the trainer, me, couldn’t get his computer to power on. what a way to make a good first impression. 😅 i took for granted that they would use the same type of plug considering we’re neighbouring countries. but i learned my lesson.
Same reaction when we visited Malaysia last March. We loved the place so much that we are itching to go back and vlog some more. Thanks for this great video, Skye! You guys are awesome!
You can apply DE RANTAU NOMAD ViSA (for digital media content provider like you) to stay in Malaysia . TH-camr like iChang has just recently gotten it to extend there stay in Malaysia
Nasi lemak is our national dish. We have it for breakfast, lunch, tea, dinner, anytime at all! Try satay in Kajang, they're famous for it. And yeah, we learn English as a 2nd language from elementary school and it's a compulsory subject
Malaysia using UK plug, because during World War eras, Malaysia was dominated by UK before independence in 31/08/1957 , that's why you may see some of facts are related to UK ^ _ ^ Even Malaysia's official English language taught in school is English (UK), but due to American drama wave, Malaysian tend to speak English (US) more often Malaysia's driver seat is left hand side, same like UK ~
1. English - English is quite commonly spoken here because Malaysia was once a British colony and albeit not always fluently, you will not get lost if all you know is English. 2. Friendly & helpful people - Malaysians love to travel ourselves; therefore, we can easily understand how people will value us if we can help them and be kind to them when they are guests in our country. 3. Local & Western variety - Malaysia is in the centre of Southeast Asia, on the trading route between China and India. Malaysia (Melaka) once served as a connecting point between Europe and the Far East. Due to this, it started serving as a hub for regional trade within the country, making it convenient to find both locally produced and imported western items as well as any other worldwide brands. 4. Diversity - Even though Malaysia's neighbours are just as diverse as Malaysia, Malaysia did not have an assimilation strategy that required its population to adopt a single national identity. Malaysia allows each ethnic community to retain its vernacular education in order to preserve their cultures, languages, and culinary traditions and to reflect the diversity of its populace. 5. Appliances - Yes, we employ the British method in many of our household appliances and equipment, including right-hand driving because of the significant British impact on our country. 6. Strong food culture - When it comes to food, Malaysian local dishes like Nasi Lemak and Roti Chanai are difficult to find in Thailand or even in Indonesia, whereas Thai food, such as Tom Yam, Song Tam and from Indonesia like Bakso, Ayam Penyet, and Nasi Padang, as well as Middle Eastern, Indian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese and other International cuisines, are also readily available here. 7. Clean & laid back - Kuala Lumpur is smaller than Jakarta, Bangkok, or even Manila, making it easier to move around and maintain cleanliness compared to the congestion and bustle of other cities in Southeast Asia. 8. Developed - The country of Malaysia developed quickly under Tun Dr Mahathir, often known as "Bapa Pemodernan" or "Father of Modernization." Putrajaya, Malaysia's administrative capital, Petronas Towers, KLIA, the North-South Expressway, KL Sentral, Sepang Circuit, and several other infrastructures that make Malaysia a developed nation have all been created by Dr. Mahathir's administration. Malaysia is also seen as fortunate due to its location outside of the earth's crust line, which protects it from many natural calamities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, typhoons, and other similar events when compared to its closest neighbours.
Skye, the 3-pin plug - why the similarity with the U.K. ? Our country was a former British colony. Also answers the question as to why many Malaysians speak English. 😘
1. Why are you surprised at the 3 pin plug? We were a British protectorate. We adopted British standards and practiises. 2. Once, our students were studying in British universities. It was natural and efficient to learn the British practises whether in engineering, accountancy, law and medicine. Knowing that those practises were already adopted in Malaysia. 3. Notice that our electric cables are underground. I.e. you can't see them. Unlike in Thailand. And the electric frequency is 50 Hz. Unlike in America or their former colonies where it is 60 Hz. 4. We drive on the left. And position of the signal switch and the wiper switch, on the steering, is for the right hand driven cars. But we don't buy British cars. We buy Japanese and Germans. And we don't honk for no reason unlike in most SE Asia. And, like the British, there are various Malaysian reactions to Jeremy Clarkson. 5. The whole political set up mirrors the British. There is a constitutional monarch. There is the powerful office of the PM. There is parliament. The civil servants serve their political masters in the Cabinet. And there is no military coup becoz the armed forces is under civilian control. Next, the politicians and civil servants find the independent minded judges annoying. All very British. 6. Our towns are not chaotic. In the 70s the govt establish the offìce of the town planner. And town planning was offered as a course in the universities. And fortunately the local politicians and businessmen more or less abide by the decisions of the town planners. 7. Now our young ones go crazy for Kpop, Kdrama and the japanese animae. Our pop culture is diversifying. We no longer look to the west exclusively. And malaysians don't twerk.
Fly over to Sarawak & Sabah, lagi more truly Asia & the diverse ethnic indigenous people of Sarawak & Sabah, you will love it more, go visit the Niah Caves, Kundasamy & many more places
Saya Sayang Kamu berdua!!! this text came from me from Middle East!!! but my roots from Malay people, i like to comment but then i feel "MALU" that i comment but not subscribe to your Channel so taraaa here i am!!!
go to District called Muar, Johor The Origin of Satay, Satay originaly Came from there!!! so go back to the roots, But Muar have nothing as for tourism port!!! But in Johor state, The Oldest Mountain that been mentioned in an old testament or Torah, That mountain been mentioned!!! I feel sorry to muslims and Malays people for break this secret!!! They kept this secret for thousands years, but i rather not to say the mountain's Name!!!
oh yeah, do not criticise Malaysian food. lol. otherwise the whole Malaysia keyboard warriors (& even visitors/foreigners) will unite to defend. Just like the "crispy" rendang incident.
People are helpful, polite, and friendly, somewhat reserved. Much of the west coast are mangrove shores not beaches. Chinese cafeterias serve a great variety of fish and veggies. Driving in the cities is like skateboarding in a labyrinth where the bushes move. Lack crosswalks, sidewalks etc. Parking can be a problem. Good train system in KL, not elsewhere. Worth a travel experience despite the tropical humidity.
You missed out on the last but not least quality of Malaysia - Homeliness. Sometimes expats say "ease of settling in" or "livability". But that's not all. There's something here that makes you feel "its home". Yes I'm so proud I was born here.
I’d be more surprised if Malaysians can’t speak English considering that it’s our second language & we learn English from a young age. Also, Malaysia is a former British colony so go figure.
Cheap for foreignerwho are from the west, our salary is low. Labour rights is like crap.... Intern dont get paid and work for long hours, professional or degree holder are not been paid well alot of malaysia leaving this country working in australia,uk,ireland,usa,canada, china,hk,singapore,dubai
I was impressed when you stopped when the call of prayer came up and waited till it was over. Such respect and very thoughtful of you.

1. Malaysia Truly Asia first used by the govt to promote the country back in 1999 and has been our tag ever since.
2. MH - which is the code for Malaysia AIrlines also carries Malaysian Hospitality message.
3. Ask the Locals - Malaysians are generally shy but very helpful. Just ask /talk to any Malaysians in random, most will take that as an honour really.
4. Number of Shopping Malls. - as KL is getting bigger and busier, the shopping malls, are more region/residential-centric so that people from that residential area do not have to go out into the city centre eg Setapak Central Mall for people in Setapak, Wangsa Walk Mall for Wangsa Maju, Melawati Mall for Melawati area, MyTown Shopping Centre for Cheras region and so on.
5. Food : Nasi campur : Malay-style rice - is the commonest real local food for all Malaysians and eating it is an art : you see various/lots of dishes (lauk) but what should be selected and what suits what is an art. This is what local usually eat during our daily lives.
6. Do visits Peninsula East Coast (Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang) and East Malaysia (Sabah Sarawak) as well as the lifestyle and cultures are (no less pleasantly) quite different.

5. Appliances - Yes, we employ the British method in many of our household appliances and equipment, including right-hand driving because of the significant British impact on our country.
6. Strong food culture - When it comes to food, Malaysian local dishes like Nasi Lemak and Roti Chanai are difficult to find in Thailand or even in Indonesia, whereas Thai food, such as Tom Yam, Song Tam and from Indonesia like Bakso, Ayam Penyet, and Nasi Padang, as well as Middle Eastern, Indian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese and other International cuisines, are also readily available here.
7. Clean & laid back - Kuala Lumpur is smaller than Jakarta, Bangkok, or even Manila, making it easier to move around and maintain cleanliness compared to the congestion and bustle of other cities in Southeast Asia.
8. Developed - The country of Malaysia developed quickly under Tun Dr Mahathir, often known as "Bapa Pemodernan" or "Father of Modernization." Putrajaya, Malaysia's administrative capital, Petronas Towers, KLIA, the North-South Expressway, KL Sentral, Sepang Circuit, and several other infrastructures that make Malaysia a developed nation have all been created by Dr. Mahathir's administration.
Malaysia is also seen as fortunate due to its location outside of the earth's crust line, which protects it from many natural calamities such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, typhoons, and other similar events when compared to its closest neighbours.
One surprising thing is .. foreigners from developed countries when the make TH-cam really shows their ignorance of the country..
stay malaysia until ramadan and hari raya. gojes aspiration
Yep guys...even Malaysia have a lot of influences from both UK ans US....peace 🇲🇾
Thank you (tq,)
Come to East Malaysia you will be amazed..
I promise...
All the Best.. 😊
Skye, the 3-pin plug - why the similarity with the U.K. ? Our country was a former British colony. Also answers the question as to why many Malaysians speak English. 😘
thank you for respect the Adzan..call for prayer for Muslim. hope both of you enjoying being at Malaysia
My favourite satay is beef. I love food more than you do. I like your collaboration
I think KL has some of the most beautiful buildings. Thanks to local and international architects.
1. Why are you surprised at the 3 pin plug? We were a British protectorate. We adopted British standards and practiises.
2. Once, our students were studying in British universities. It was natural and efficient to learn the British practises whether in engineering, accountancy, law and medicine. Knowing that those practises were already adopted in Malaysia.
3. Notice that our electric cables are underground. I.e. you can't see them. Unlike in Thailand. And the electric frequency is 50 Hz. Unlike in America or their former colonies where it is 60 Hz.
4. We drive on the left. And position of the signal switch and the wiper switch, on the steering, is for the right hand driven cars. But we don't buy British cars. We buy Japanese and Germans. And we don't honk for no reason unlike in most SE Asia. And, like the British, there are various Malaysian reactions to Jeremy Clarkson.
5. The whole political set up mirrors the British. There is a constitutional monarch. There is the powerful office of the PM. There is parliament. The civil servants serve their political masters in the Cabinet. And there is no military coup becoz the armed forces is under civilian control. Next, the politicians and civil servants find the independent minded judges annoying. All very British.
6. Our towns are not chaotic. In the 70s the govt establish the offìce of the town planner. And town planning was offered as a course in the universities. And fortunately the local politicians and businessmen more or less abide by the decisions of the town planners.
7. Now our young ones go crazy for Kpop, Kdrama and the japanese animae. Our pop culture is diversifying. We no longer look to the west exclusively. And malaysians don't twerk.
Mei come to langkawi airshow jet fighter LIMA langkawi 2023
Fly over to Sarawak & Sabah, lagi more truly Asia & the diverse ethnic indigenous people of Sarawak & Sabah, you will love it more, go visit the Niah Caves, Kundasamy & many more places
Former British colony, hence the compatible plugs, and the left-hand driving on the roads.
Saya Sayang Kamu berdua!!! this text came from me from Middle East!!! but my roots from Malay people, i like to comment but then i feel "MALU" that i comment but not subscribe to your Channel so taraaa here i am!!!

But in Johor state, The Oldest Mountain that been mentioned in an old testament or Torah, That mountain been mentioned!!! I feel sorry to muslims and Malays people for break this secret!!! They kept this secret for thousands years, but i rather not to say the mountain's Name!!!
Happy to know you guys love Malaysia. Selamat Datang and Terima kasih.
Malaysia is very happy to have you here,you re always welcome back to your 2nd home ❤
Videos great but music very distracting. I’ll be traveling to Malaysia soon.
Be excellent with each other and have a pleasant travel ✌️
Malaysia is a commonwealth country which is why they speak English pretty well. I absolutely love this city. I agree with your points
oh yeah, do not criticise Malaysian food. lol. otherwise the whole Malaysia keyboard warriors (& even visitors/foreigners) will unite to defend. Just like the "crispy" rendang incident.
What is the cost of living. I’m getting ready to retire and I want to move to a different country. But my problem is I only get $1,900.00 every month
People are helpful, polite, and friendly, somewhat reserved. Much of the west coast are mangrove shores not beaches. Chinese cafeterias serve a great variety of fish and veggies. Driving in the cities is like skateboarding in a labyrinth where the bushes move. Lack crosswalks, sidewalks etc. Parking can be a problem. Good train system in KL, not elsewhere. Worth a travel experience despite the tropical humidity.
You missed out on the last but not least quality of Malaysia - Homeliness. Sometimes expats say "ease of settling in" or "livability". But that's not all. There's something here that makes you feel "its home".
Yes I'm so proud I was born here.
Malaysia is British colony aka commonwealth country hence 3 pin plug is ‘inherited’ from the master!
Like much Pig satay 🤜🤛 only in Sarawak.
But Not Halal...
I’d be more surprised if Malaysians can’t speak English considering that it’s our second language & we learn English from a young age. Also, Malaysia is a former British colony so go figure.
Haha...never talk bad about our food was true..remember crispy rendang?
Ahhaaa you really stop the footage to respect the Azan!!!??? i really respect you two .Have a nice experience in Malaysia.
Brooo..dun forget iban the Headhunter of Sarawak niceeeeeerr..best of Asia.. hahaha 🤣😂
One thing you miss out….. hardly see any Beggars/homeless people in the city (maybe only few around downtown not far from China town)!
Yesss. Never ever mention anything bad about nasi lemak. Hahaha😂😂😂
Cheap for foreignerwho are from the west, our salary is low. Labour rights is like crap.... Intern dont get paid and work for long hours, professional or degree holder are not been paid well alot of malaysia leaving this country working in australia,uk,ireland,usa,canada, china,hk,singapore,dubai
O-some video 👍👍..After watching this video I feel grateful for being a Malaysian..Thanks Skye and Sulaiman! Congratulation you got a subscriber!
English is the second language in Malaysia..we learned at school from 5 or 6 years old..so almost all Malaysian people know English..
you are wrong there are 3 pavillions in kl: bukit bintang / damansara / bukit jalil
Try travel to East Malaysia like Kelantan and Terengganu, Try Redang, Kapas Island
only Malaysian can talk bad about nasi lemak😂 some of them not really nice.... but I really missed Malaysia food when I m oversea now😭😭
Being a previous colony of the UK, it shouldn't be surprising that the large British 3-pin plug is used.
thanks you ,my fren for respecting and sensitive to
the call of pray and stop pause your filming . really appreciate it.
