Interesting comparison! Just learn something new about your city! What u mentioned about KL is really true!!! 😆 I'm surprised that u really know my city well!! Not just a tourist point of view! Can't wait for your Batu Caves and Bird Park videos! Wonder where else u have visited?!! He hehe, gonna stay tune then😆
Makes me miss KL so much. Such a fun city to visit and there's always something for you to do. As for TO, the city literally shuts down past 10pm. And don't get me started with winter and the layers of clothing lol
Yeah, we have 24 hours restaurants/ clinics/ marts for those in need. Usually when goes abroad, I can only sees pub.. night activities are very limited. Am not saying we always need that in other countries, but access to basic necessaties would be much appreciated + time for mingling/ catch up things with families & friends without alchohol and being safe 😊
@@narakanith24 hahaha food lovers you are! I love the chilling vibes we have while enjoying staples/ dinner outside with friends & families even though it was 1 am at morning. Don't worry, M'sia welcomes you again when it's time for you to 'balik kampung' here 🤗☺️
Most westerners have bad perception about malls, not sure why?? But people in Malaysia and most cities in SEA need the malls to avoid the heat from the glaring hot sun. We need the AC.😅. Most malls in Malaysia have everything from the high end products to affordable products.
Come to a mall here and see. Haha. They are very boring and stuffy. And yes, you’re right. AC in SEA is essential. The heat is real! Just know you have the best malls ever. You’re lucky!!
Not a bad perception. I once went to Redeo Drive in Los Amgeles & the shopping experience was unreal. I love it. They have hundreds of shops and it's all open air. The weather is also nice. In Malaysia the weather is hot so prepare prefers to do their shopping indoors.
I am Malaysian, living in Seri Kembangan, Selangor state, only 20 minutes from Kuala Lumpur. I do not like malls, I avoid going to malls if I am in KL or any major city in Malaysia. Malls make me sick & I am sick of malls. They are too big, too crowded, too flashy, too commercial, too high with so so many floors I have to clime, so crowded parking spaces, and last but not least, they are very expensive -everything they sell is expensive. If I want to eat in KL, I go to regular restaurants (mamak or Indian Muslim restaurants, Malay restaurants, Chinese Muslim restaurants), regular food stalls (like so many in Kampung Baru & in my hometown in Kedah state), food courts, night markets, fast food restaurants, for examples. I enjoy eating & socializing at all these places wherever I am in my country Malaysia. But malls, no thanks. I lived in US many years, had a son born there. I did go to malls, but only small ones with only ground level floor surrounded by huge wide expansive area of parking spaces, no skyscraper many-floors type of malls for me. In Japan where I lived a year, I actually avoided all malls.
Why bother? They will not stand the heat in Malaysia if they go shopping outdoors. We don't need to fulfill their standards cos this is our country, we need AC! 😂
KL is a mixture of high and low. Concrete and jungle. Expensive stuff and cheap stuff.. don’t worry about food. And English is common, not to say all Malaysian speak English.
I am not trying to sell KL. But it is truly a blessed place where luxury is made affordable, especially in the eyes of foreigners. This makes it one of the most preferred retirement destinations in the world with its relatively low cost of living and first-class medical care at down to earth prices. And it's a place where English is widely spoken.
What a lovely video, thank you. Oh my, comparatively KL wins in almost all categories. The cost of living is still affordable in Malaysia. The cost of doing business isn't high in Malaysia. The cost of medical services are also quite affordable in Malaysia. You might want to add the cost of SIM card and internet packages are also very attractive in Malaysia.
You are totally right! I remember my SIM card and Internet being a great price when I was in Malaysia! Maybe I will do a follow up video in the future ABS include these points.
@@Yasin_Affandi okay. I will definitely make that video. But I will wait a few weeks so it doesn't seem to be reparative. Thank you for your suggestions! It is a great idea!
Yeah it’s hard to compare. When you look up Toronto, you will automatically get results for greater Toronto. But Malaysians only consider official KL as part of KL. It was explained to me recently. And the rest is Glen Valley or something like that? But I guess I look at KL as I would look at Toronto. So I’m looking at Greater KL, which, as a whole, is much much bigger and much more developed than Toronto. I’m really trying to like Toronto more. Haha. I’m going to TRY and make nice videos about Toronto 🤞
There are 19 national public holidays and 38 state public holidays per year in Malaysia. Three terms of school holidays; mid year term ( 3 weeks), quarter term..somewhere June/July ( probably 2 weeks) and year end term from Mid November till 1st January of the new year ( about 5 weeks).
I stayed in Peterborough for four years in the early 80s and used to go to Toronto once in a while. It was a great city. The only time after that I went to Canda was sometime in the early 2000. The major change is in its demography. I guess the diversity policy the Canadian government has adopted over the years has somewhat eroded the true Canadian values, especially during the reign of Justin Trudeau. I'm glad you like it here in Malaysia. Go explore the national parks, both in west and east Malaysia, and leave out the islands.
You should go to FRIM a 544ha man made forest restored from a former tin mine, its going for UNESCO heritage status for the first successful reforestation from just rock off a former tin mine.
I didn't realize Toronto had so many limitations. Can't possibly be worse than boring NYC. Public transportation is a nightmare in NYC and very dangerous. NYC has people defecating and smoking crack inside the trains.
Toronto definitely has people defecating and smoking crack on the train too... tho probably not as often haha. I have to admit Toronto is definitely safer than NYC.
As a Malaysian in Toronto in the early 80's, I found it great City compared to London, UK. Was impressed with the TTC and road grid which enabled me to explore greater Toronto very easily by myself. Lived in several areas of Toronto. It was affordable even as a student. I don't know about now. KL only developed rapidly in the last 30 years. I remember the Race Course that was in KL that has given way for the Petronas Twin Towers. I was impressed with the Eaton Centre. I understand the cost of living has sky rocketed and hence the frustration of Canadians.
I love your comment. It reminds me of falling in love with Toronto when I moved here 15 years ago. Toronto is a ghost of what it once was. I suppose I miss that city you described. I found it affordable 15 years ago too. It has changed so much. It is kind of scary and everything everywhere is so expensive. And the TTC is not what it used to be either. It is very unreliable now. How long were you in Toronto for?
@@yaaguu7 I went there as a student for my tertiary education, at the U of T. The TTC had 58 Stations with 2 lines only, the Bloor - Danforth line (Kipling - Kennedy), and the Yonge - University line (Finch - Wilson). The extension to Scarborough City Centre from Kennedy Station was under construction then. I have been up the CN Tower to the Space Deck more than 10 times. On one occasion they had to deny me access to the Space Deck as the wind velocity was more than 100 mph. Out of the 3 revolving doors at the Observation Deck, 2 were freely rotating powerfully due to the powerful wind. The other door was jammed in time with a wooden block to prevent the wild rotation. I managed to sneak out through the gap on the jammed rotating door. It was a wild and frightening experience, facing the powerful gust of wind.
@@samraj3179 wow! That is a wills experience at the CN tower. As for the Scarborough extension, they actually just closed it. They decided they don’t want to fund that line anymore and they are going to tear out the train tracks and use it as a tunnel to drive buses. Isn’t that crazy? The city has become so backwards.
Lived in Toronto for 4 years so fortunate didn’t migrate there! Winter too long and too cold. Yorkdale the only mall but is not fun; foods boring too. Services are too costly; hence weekends end up at T& T or Costco for groceries.. No life, no culture, people greet you politely but that’s it.
what the hell was that not celebrating anything to respect everything lmaoooo. on the contrary, sometimes i will go out and wish everyone a happy holiday to whoever celebrating that week, i love the lively celebrations even supporting/wishing them is enough to make me enjoy it as well
That is a great attitude. It is not something I see very often in Toronto. The whole “happy holidays” politics is a great example of what I’m saying. We say that in the west not to offend people who do not celebrate the same holidays. Whereas in Malaysia, people are informed on the details and meaning of other culture’s holidays, and know how to offer the correct salutation, offer the salutation, and also often partake in the celebration as well. For example, Christians are a minority. But everyone wishes each other Merry Christmas and decorates. Nearly everyone celebrates Chinese new year, regardless of ethnicity. Malaysians are a very well informed and cultured people.
Interesting observations. I lived in Toronto til 2019. I completely agree with what your mentioning. I saw the city change and become increasingly expensive, TTC deteriorating. I moved to Montreal given its better affordability, vibrancy. Yes, winters suck, are harsher than in Toronto but at least we get snow removal which is non existent in Toronto. In Toronto, now you need to make at least 6 figures annually to live comfortably...not everyone is a lawyer, doctor, engineer nor want to be. I'd like to travel to Thailand, Malaysia as I'm thinking of eventually moving out of Canada. Being a gay man, I wonder how being gay is perceived n KL
Montreal is beautiful but I really don’t like the cold. As for being gay in Malaysia, the answer to that question is quite nuanced. I’d suggest checking out this video I made about the topic: th-cam.com/video/R6Piv2DZ0lE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xHVIpfOri5eJt5eH But basically, Malaysians are very accepting and loving. They are progressive but in most Asian culture and definitely in Malaysia it is not appropriate to show public displays of affection and to display sexuality (ie. wearing very revealing clothing, wear something that talks about sex, wether it be a shirt that says “SEX” or “I’M GAY”). Sex and sexuality is a private matter that you keep to yourself, regardless of your gender or sexual identity. There are no laws protecting queer individuals from discrimination, and, like many places in the world, sodomy is a crime. In the west this may seem unjust, but when you see the culture first hand, you realize the beauty in the privacy that far surpasses one’s desire to wear the rainbow or wear short shorts. What I’m getting at is: Malaysians are cool. They are one of the most accepting people’s on this earth. You being gay is not a problem. There is no active hate against queer people. But everyone there loves their discreet and private culture. Did this make any sense to you?
Thank you for this clear and comprehensive analysis....after watching this, I have nothing but extreme gratitude for being a Malaysian and be able to do a lot of things at a fraction of what it cost in Canada 🥹
I wouldnt say KL is cheap but it provide diverse options to people of many background and income in terms of housing, shopping and food...i woukdnt say were a melting pot but more if a tossed salad. Every neighbourhood and street there is diversity in the faces and foood you see as minorities are in 2 digit percebmntages
There's too many public holidays for Christians , Muslims , Hindus , Buddhist , Birthday of the Sultans in Malaysia that sometimes business owners are complaining. It shows the diversity of the country. Life rarely gets bored.
@@EGO0808 1 day is enough for recognition. Everyone gets a holiday. Unlike Canada, nothing for non-Christians. You clearly have lots of anger for wanting in excess.
@@EGO0808Boxing Day has got nothing to do with Christianity. Even Easter is not a holiday here in Toronto. Basically there's only Good Friday and Christmas here.
@@EGO0808 Only one day of holiday in USA for christmas. Zero holidays for those other days you mention. Our biggest holiday is 1.5 days at thanksgiving to celebrate our conquest of the natives.
I think there is a lot more to consider than the short list you are comparing. ie Freedom, Crime, Safety, life expectancy, literacy, equality... your list is very subjective. I still watched to the end.
Malaysia trully Asia from may opinion-perspective level crime in Mlysia is low-less safe for foreigner n amazing dellicius resto-street food too salam greetings ❤ to you all from Jkrta cty
Went to Shanghai during the winter many years ago... The temperature was so cold, no joke. I have to get in from shop to shop, just to warm a little bit form the heater and pretend that am buying something. True enough, it raises the seller's eyebrows as I didn't buy any. :)
@@yaaguu7 Living in a warm and hot country such as Malaysia, I never realised this until I had to go to the UK during winter. The duration is short, but the feeling of wanting to go back is unimaginable. Sometimes we don't realise, that "the grass is always greener on the other side"
But for Malaysians earning local money, the low salary is also not cheap for us as the cost of living. Inflation is serious in Malaysia now, and it's even more difficult to live in cities areas especially.🤔
I totally hear you. You’re right it is hard to compare. The info I get is from friends and family living in KL. At the same time I can only understand things from my own perspective.
Even comparing with local economy KL is still far more affordable than Toronto as we still can get food under rm10 while in Toronto even getting food under 10 dollars is a pretty challenging thing to get. Not even gonna mention rent n other stuffs.
The priority here is for Muslim festivals. Not all non muslim festivals here are a public holiday but selected ones only. Hence, many local kids of non Malay ethnicity over a course of time here tend to not know their own cultures fully simply because their own parents were most likely brought up in the same way. Things get worse when your own parents / grandparents are not religious or spiritual and end up hindering you from learning the finer aspects of your own cultural background significances.
Thank you for your comment. I don’t know of any other place where so many different festivals from so many different cultures and religions are celebrated. Do you?
Thank you for your comment. I don’t know of any other place where so many different festivals from so many different cultures and religions are celebrated. Do you?
Yes the tap water still runs in the cold winter. In Toronto at least. But it doesn’t get TOO cold here. But in other parts of Canada where it is colder, the pipes need to be heated. If not they will burst. 💥
@Yaaguu7 This is one of the best videos that I have ever seen regarding Malaysia's Kuala Lumpur and Toronto, Canada. I live here in the Greater Toronto Area too and Canadians in general are polite but in a very politically correct way not to cause offense to other people. Canada for sure is one of the most expensive countries on the face of the earth. If you convert Canadian Dollars to Malaysian Ringgit it's worth 3 times more the money which goes a very long way. I would love to visit Malaysia someday. 🙂👍
Thank you for your kindness. Yes I agree with you completely. I would go as far as saying Toronto feels fake. I hope you get to visit Malaysia. It’s unreal!!!
The Kim's Convenience here in TO is completely a different set up compared to what is shown on the show. And the neighborhood isn't very welcoming (unsafe) lol
Yeah, Kuala Lumpur can stop hogging most of the revenue from their member states of Sarawak and Sabah and be fair and let these member states be have their revenue so that they , too, can improve their states in the same way as Kuala Lumpur.
hey if you say kuala lumpur is better than canada in terms of natural attraction i would have disagreed with you as well.. canada natural attractions are stunning
I’m speaking of Toronto specifically here. Yes Canada is very big. There is a lot of beautiful barrier. And I have Toronto and Malaysia a tie on that issue in the video.
This video was about TO vs KL (not all of Canada). Also he did not say that the natural attraction in KL is better than TO. It was a tie. He also found the Bird Park in KL to be stunning, unlike any other parks in TO. It's no doubt, that Canada also has some stunning attractions.
Hi, what job do you do and what job can I do please ? I m like you, from canada new brunswick and canadian, I cant wait leaving canada for malaysia, so please help me :) i suscribed to your chanel :)
Right now I work as a server at a restaurant. Tips are a good income and provide good enough living to travel if I don't eat out and save money. I don't know if tips would be as good in New Brunswick but maybe it's worth a try. If you're asking about what job I plan on doing when I leave Canada, I plan on being a TH-cam creator. It is a hard journey and not the most realistic, but it's what I want to do. I was learning Python and coding but I decided that I do not want to be an employee anymore because it doesn't suit my personality. But if you take the time to learn coding (you can go to school or do it online) then you can get a good job overseas. In the future I plan on making videos about my transition to moving to Malaysia. I. Basically gonna film. Everything in my life. My goal right now is to grow my channel fast to have a regular income. I don't know how long it will take. My goal is to move to Malaysia by the end of 2025. When I get closer to my move I will be posting videos about it on TH-cam. I hope I answered your question. What do you currently do for work?
in msia even the pagans get their own holidays amids muslim majority... most msian pagans are fearless warriors deep in black magic. its not scarry. its normal. 😂
Don't know what your frame of reference is for "average people in Toronto". You sound like you are not having an amazing time in Toronto. There are plenty of mildly successful people in Toronto enjoying a high standard of living. I feel those tend to complain a lot are younger millennials or Gen Z, who frankly, are not financially stable or professionally successful.
I don’t know many people who are having an amazing time in Toronto. I don’t know if you see the news at all but middle class households now go to food banks. Do you think that is normal?
Haha. I have been to Thailand and Indonesia. I love those places but don't think I would live there. But I haven't been to Singapore yet. Is that where you're from?
In comparison to TO, KL has much more to offer. If you think KL is boring, can you imagine what TO would be like?? Don't get me started with food here in TO...oh boy!
@@yaaguu7I don't even know anymore. I could only think of the island but that would only last for two months. We don't do much for the rest of the year! Unless you wanna do something outside the city which would cost you like a million dollars!
As a Malaysian, food is serious business. You can have a viral "makan" place somewhere 200km way out from your home and still people travel to eat. That food can be anything, Malay, Chinese, Indians, fusion or indigenious. There's even niche branch of culture with Portuguese ancenstry with locals called Serani people in Malacca with their own unique cuisine. We celebrate almost 130+ days of cultural & religious holidays aside from normal Sundays. Your differences is respected here in Malaysia as a muslim country. Just dont go out of the way to promote weird stuff thats against our creed and way of doing things in local public and we are cool with whatever you associate yourself with.
Your comment made me hungry. 😋 I can’t wait to explore so much more of Malaysia! I love how so many cultures are celebrated. I will respect Muslim culture and looking forward to learning more about it too!

I managed to sneak out through the gap on the jammed rotating door. It was a wild and frightening experience, facing the powerful gust of wind.
@@samraj3179 wow! That is a wills experience at the CN tower.
As for the Scarborough extension, they actually just closed it. They decided they don’t want to fund that line anymore and they are going to tear out the train tracks and use it as a tunnel to drive buses. Isn’t that crazy? The city has become so backwards.
💯 agreed, $100 flight to another country that is bonus .
Yes such a huge bonus. Gives you so much freedom to explore.
Lived in Toronto for 4 years so fortunate didn’t migrate there!
Winter too long and too cold.
Yorkdale the only mall but is not fun; foods boring too.
Services are too costly; hence weekends end up
at T& T or Costco for groceries..
No life, no culture,
people greet you politely but that’s it.
Yes that’s how I feel about Toronto. It is so boring and expensive! I’m happy you didn’t get stuck here!
what the hell was that not celebrating anything to respect everything lmaoooo. on the contrary, sometimes i will go out and wish everyone a happy holiday to whoever celebrating that week, i love the lively celebrations even supporting/wishing them is enough to make me enjoy it as well
That is a great attitude. It is not something I see very often in Toronto.
The whole “happy holidays” politics is a great example of what I’m saying. We say that in the west not to offend people who do not celebrate the same holidays. Whereas in Malaysia, people are informed on the details and meaning of other culture’s holidays, and know how to offer the correct salutation, offer the salutation, and also often partake in the celebration as well. For example, Christians are a minority. But everyone wishes each other Merry Christmas and decorates. Nearly everyone celebrates Chinese new year, regardless of ethnicity.
Malaysians are a very well informed and cultured people.
Interesting observations. I lived in Toronto til 2019. I completely agree with what your mentioning. I saw the city change and become increasingly expensive, TTC deteriorating. I moved to Montreal given its better affordability, vibrancy. Yes, winters suck, are harsher than in Toronto but at least we get snow removal which is non existent in Toronto. In Toronto, now you need to make at least 6 figures annually to live comfortably...not everyone is a lawyer, doctor, engineer nor want to be. I'd like to travel to Thailand, Malaysia as I'm thinking of eventually moving out of Canada. Being a gay man, I wonder how being gay is perceived n KL
Montreal is beautiful but I really don’t like the cold. As for being gay in Malaysia, the answer to that question is quite nuanced. I’d suggest checking out this video I made about the topic: th-cam.com/video/R6Piv2DZ0lE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=xHVIpfOri5eJt5eH
But basically, Malaysians are very accepting and loving. They are progressive but in most Asian culture and definitely in Malaysia it is not appropriate to show public displays of affection and to display sexuality (ie. wearing very revealing clothing, wear something that talks about sex, wether it be a shirt that says “SEX” or “I’M GAY”).
Sex and sexuality is a private matter that you keep to yourself, regardless of your gender or sexual identity. There are no laws protecting queer individuals from discrimination, and, like many places in the world, sodomy is a crime.
In the west this may seem unjust, but when you see the culture first hand, you realize the beauty in the privacy that far surpasses one’s desire to wear the rainbow or wear short shorts.
What I’m getting at is: Malaysians are cool. They are one of the most accepting people’s on this earth. You being gay is not a problem. There is no active hate against queer people. But everyone there loves their discreet and private culture.
Did this make any sense to you?
Correct yourself
Even pigs don't mate with same gender
You forgot to compare the Healthcare cost and services lol
That would be a good one, but I don’t have any experience with that. When I do I will make a video about it.
I love stay at kampung in nature.but now i stay in kL.one day i want go tu stay at kampung.
I’m sure your kampung is very beautiful!!
You are absolutely right but I like the flowers and garden in Toronto.
@@KAL0001 Toronto has great parks
Thank you for this clear and comprehensive analysis....after watching this, I have nothing but extreme gratitude for being a Malaysian and be able to do a lot of things at a fraction of what it cost in Canada 🥹
Thank you for your thoughtful message and thank you for watching!
I wouldnt say KL is cheap but it provide diverse options to people of many background and income in terms of housing, shopping and food...i woukdnt say were a melting pot but more if a tossed salad. Every neighbourhood and street there is diversity in the faces and foood you see as minorities are in 2 digit percebmntages
Definitely not a melting pot. Toronto is starting to be a melting pot lately. KL is definitely more expensive than the rest of Malaysia.
There's too many public holidays for Christians , Muslims , Hindus , Buddhist , Birthday of the Sultans in Malaysia that sometimes business owners are complaining. It shows the diversity of the country. Life rarely gets bored.
It sounds amazing. We barely get holidays in Canada, and when we do it is not a public celebration, it is a private one.
@@EGO0808Christmas is a National holiday in Malaysia.
@@EGO0808 1 day is enough for recognition. Everyone gets a holiday. Unlike Canada, nothing for non-Christians. You clearly have lots of anger for wanting in excess.
@@EGO0808Boxing Day has got nothing to do with Christianity. Even Easter is not a holiday here in Toronto. Basically there's only Good Friday and Christmas here.
@@EGO0808 Only one day of holiday in USA for christmas. Zero holidays for those other days you mention. Our biggest holiday is 1.5 days at thanksgiving to celebrate our conquest of the natives.
I think there is a lot more to consider than the short list you are comparing. ie Freedom, Crime, Safety, life expectancy, literacy, equality... your list is very subjective. I still watched to the end.
Thank you so much for watching. You have great points here.
Friendly? Everybody older than you is your Aunt & Uncle😂
Haha you’re right
Wowwww
A good wow?

Went to Shanghai during the winter many years ago... The temperature was so cold, no joke.
I have to get in from shop to shop, just to warm a little bit form the heater and pretend that am buying something. True enough, it raises the seller's eyebrows as I didn't buy any.
:)
The cold is not my favourite. I prefer the heat.
@@yaaguu7 Living in a warm and hot country such as Malaysia, I never realised this until I had to go to the UK during winter.
The duration is short, but the feeling of wanting to go back is unimaginable. Sometimes we don't realise, that "the grass is always greener on the other side"
@@bandungmee yes the grass is always greener.
KL is much better and your life is full of joy and happiness n healthy both physically n mentally. Visit KL is worth it
Yes I agree! I feel better in KL!
I dislike any cities with winter even Scandinavian ones 😂 i cna go out in hot weather but prefer not ti go out even in mild wibters.
Yeah winter is not my favourite!! I like the heat! ☀️
But for Malaysians earning local money, the low salary is also not cheap for us as the cost of living. Inflation is serious in Malaysia now, and it's even more difficult to live in cities areas especially.🤔
I totally hear you. You’re right it is hard to compare. The info I get is from friends and family living in KL. At the same time I can only understand things from my own perspective.
Even comparing with local economy KL is still far more affordable than Toronto as we still can get food under rm10 while in Toronto even getting food under 10 dollars is a pretty challenging thing to get. Not even gonna mention rent n other stuffs.
@@nytt1256 yes thank you. The food IDs very expensive.
*Which mamak restaurant you lepak2 sembang2 pekena Teh Tarik in Malaysia Mr...can we joining together for some time...🤝🤭🇲🇾🧡🇲🇾🧡🇲🇾*
@@asrie1234 which is your favorite?
Can’t believe a place like KL is being compared to Canada😂
I don’t mean to insult KL, comparing it to such a lowly place.
KL vs Toronto. KL can definitely be compared to TO. KL has much more to offer and is definitely better!
@@narakanith24 KL is the best
The world is changing fast and has already changed in many ways. Change is accelerating. Canada, US, and UK are clearly on the short end of the stick.
Respectfully, either you havent travelled much, or you have a hard time admitting that we have built ourselves a nation that can stand tall.
The priority here is for Muslim festivals. Not all non muslim festivals here are a public holiday but selected ones only. Hence, many local kids of non Malay ethnicity over a course of time here tend to not know their own cultures fully simply because their own parents were most likely brought up in the same way. Things get worse when your own parents / grandparents are not religious or spiritual and end up hindering you from learning the finer aspects of your own cultural background significances.
Thank you for your comment. I don’t know of any other place where so many different festivals from so many different cultures and religions are celebrated. Do you?

i want to know if tap water still running in cold winter ?
Yes the tap water still runs in the cold winter. In Toronto at least. But it doesn’t get TOO cold here. But in other parts of Canada where it is colder, the pipes need to be heated. If not they will burst. 💥
Alamak! Don't do like this. Toronto crying
It’s okay. Toronto doesn’t feel emotion 😂😉
1. Tim Horton's is coming to KL.
2. KL doesn't have the Argonauts, Blue Jays, Raptors or Maple Leafs.
Love this
Thank you handsome.
Thank you for watching!
I am Malaysian. Thank you brother for promoting Kuala Lumpur in your channel... really appreciate it. 👍
Thank you for being awesome and having such an amazing channel!
Toronto may be just as multicultural, the majority of the population do not respect people of other cultures.
Yeah it’s a sad thing
@Yaaguu7
This is one of the best videos that I have ever seen regarding Malaysia's Kuala Lumpur and Toronto, Canada. I live here in the Greater Toronto Area too and Canadians in general are polite but in a very politically correct way not to cause offense to other people. Canada for sure is one of the most expensive countries on the face of the earth. If you convert Canadian Dollars to Malaysian Ringgit it's worth 3 times more the money which goes a very long way. I would love to visit Malaysia someday. 🙂👍
Thank you for your kindness. Yes I agree with you completely. I would go as far as saying Toronto feels fake. I hope you get to visit Malaysia. It’s unreal!!!
Thinking to move 😮
Move with us!
KL hands down.
KL for the win 🏆

Have you been to Kim's Convenience in Toronto?
The Kim's Convenience here in TO is completely a different set up compared to what is shown on the show. And the neighborhood isn't very welcoming (unsafe) lol
I have walked by it many times and think I have gone inside, before the show existed.
@@narakanith24 I forgot, what neighborhood is it in again?
It's at Queen and Sherbourne
@@narakanith24 holy crap! I’ve never been in that store then. I would never go into any store in that neighborhood! Extremely dangerous!!!
Yeah, Kuala Lumpur can stop hogging most of the revenue from their member states of Sarawak and Sabah and be fair and let these member states be have their revenue so that they , too, can improve their states in the same way as Kuala Lumpur.
Thank you for the comment. I’m sure as Malaysia develops there will be more budget for everyone.
are you serious? $50 per museum ticket? Per person?
Yes I am serious. Crazy, right?
Boring life in Canada, especially their food
The food is really the worst part
I ❤ KL
Am local welcome to KL
Thank you so much! Yes, KL is the best!
hey if you say kuala lumpur is better than canada in terms of natural attraction i would have disagreed with you as well.. canada natural attractions are stunning
I’m speaking of Toronto specifically here. Yes Canada is very big. There is a lot of beautiful barrier. And I have Toronto and Malaysia a tie on that issue in the video.
This video was about TO vs KL (not all of Canada). Also he did not say that the natural attraction in KL is better than TO. It was a tie. He also found the Bird Park in KL to be stunning, unlike any other parks in TO. It's no doubt, that Canada also has some stunning attractions.
But not Toronto. Not really. Just the island. And it is okay.

Hi, what job do you do and what job can I do please ? I m like you, from canada new brunswick and canadian, I cant wait leaving canada for malaysia, so please help me :) i suscribed to your chanel :)
Right now I work as a server at a restaurant. Tips are a good income and provide good enough living to travel if I don't eat out and save money. I don't know if tips would be as good in New Brunswick but maybe it's worth a try.
If you're asking about what job I plan on doing when I leave Canada, I plan on being a TH-cam creator. It is a hard journey and not the most realistic, but it's what I want to do.
I was learning Python and coding but I decided that I do not want to be an employee anymore because it doesn't suit my personality. But if you take the time to learn coding (you can go to school or do it online) then you can get a good job overseas.
In the future I plan on making videos about my transition to moving to Malaysia. I. Basically gonna film. Everything in my life.
My goal right now is to grow my channel fast to have a regular income. I don't know how long it will take. My goal is to move to Malaysia by the end of 2025.
When I get closer to my move I will be posting videos about it on TH-cam.
I hope I answered your question.
What do you currently do for work?
Very the naughty lah you. 😊

in msia even the pagans get their own holidays amids muslim majority... most msian pagans are fearless warriors deep in black magic. its not scarry. its normal. 😂

Toronto should be compared to Addis Ababa. Toronto is now a third world city.
Ahahahahah. I love this comment!
Don't know what your frame of reference is for "average people in Toronto". You sound like you are not having an amazing time in Toronto. There are plenty of mildly successful people in Toronto enjoying a high standard of living. I feel those tend to complain a lot are younger millennials or Gen Z, who frankly, are not financially stable or professionally successful.
I don’t know many people who are having an amazing time in Toronto. I don’t know if you see the news at all but middle class households now go to food banks. Do you think that is normal?
@@yaaguu7that is true! Also the rising cost of living does not help the younger generation to be more financially stable!
@@yaaguu7not to mention how the rental market is now. It is super unaffordable!
@@narakanith24 the struggle is real
@@narakanith24 it is a shame. The average cost of renting A BEDROOM is $1400 now.

Haha. I have been to Thailand and Indonesia. I love those places but don't think I would live there. But I haven't been to Singapore yet. Is that where you're from?

People are obsessed with Singapore lah
Nice KL propaganda vid. Nice way to diss Toronto.
ahaha. Propaganda vid. I like that.
Developing vs develop countries,but KL super boring nothing to offer wasting time and money
In comparison to TO, KL has much more to offer. If you think KL is boring, can you imagine what TO would be like?? Don't get me started with food here in TO...oh boy!
If you think KL is boring you definitely would not like Toronto.
@@narakanith24 what is there even to do in Toronto?
@@yaaguu7I don't even know anymore. I could only think of the island but that would only last for two months. We don't do much for the rest of the year! Unless you wanna do something outside the city which would cost you like a million dollars!

Wow bro when saying such comparisons you better be ready to persecute by your own fellow Canadian to KL Malaysia. 🤣
They will probably tie me up! Jkjk. Everyone I talk to in Toronto agrees with me. Things are changing very fast here.

Hi bro
Hey bro. What’s up!
As a Malaysian, food is serious business. You can have a viral "makan" place somewhere 200km way out from your home and still people travel to eat. That food can be anything, Malay, Chinese, Indians, fusion or indigenious. There's even niche branch of culture with Portuguese ancenstry with locals called Serani people in Malacca with their own unique cuisine. We celebrate almost 130+ days of cultural & religious holidays aside from normal Sundays.
Your differences is respected here in Malaysia as a muslim country. Just dont go out of the way to promote weird stuff thats against our creed and way of doing things in local public and we are cool with whatever you associate yourself with.
Your comment made me hungry. 😋 I can’t wait to explore so much more of Malaysia! I love how so many cultures are celebrated. I will respect Muslim culture and looking forward to learning more about it too!
Love Nonya food. Awesoness
