Damansara Heights new money? You got to be kidding…Malaysia’s who’s who stay in Kenny Hills, Damansara Heights, Bukit Bandaraya and Ampang Hilir/U-Thant. Those living outside are new money. Wanna know the difference old and new money? Watch The Gilded Years.
I used to have a Uni friend who lived in Kenny Hills. When I visited her house during the 1980s, was surprised to find out how big her house was. Even more surprised to find out that her aunt who lived nearby, had a bigger house with a swimming pool too :) I didn't even knew she was old money as I thought she was from a normal middle class family. Very low key and unpretentious. Turned out that her father was one of the first Malay bankers in Malaysia and her mother was one of the first female Malay doctors in Malaysia. In the early 1990s, as she was working in London, her parents bought her an apartment in Central London. Later, in order to facilitate their trips to London, they bought another apartment in the same complex. I liked the old money people as they tended not to show off and blended in. Unlike the new rich who seems to live in designer items and surrounded by hangerons and bodyguards.
You're back! Welcome, 😎 La Bodega is known for its Spanish tapas. They have the best seafood paella and sangria in town. It's interesting to see you exploring Damansara Heights, where most of the old money lives. But one does not have to be super wealthy to enjoy luxuries. I'm an upper-middle-class chap but I still can afford Prada shoes or a Louis Vuitton wallet when I fancy one 🤣
Proton is a Malaysian brand car and built in Malaysia not China but is not yet an EV. But the company is now partly owned by Greeley of China. But most of the parts are Malaysian but still some parts from Japanese or Chinese.
Proton was started in the 1980s and is based on Mitsubishi (Japanese) technology. There was a deal between Mahathir/Malaysia and Japan to make Malaysia an asian automaker superpower. Mitsubishi sold old technology to Proton, which is how they started. The cars were priced for the local market, and were basically tin cans - very unsafe. However, it got people off motorbikes as the middle classes rose. Whether Geely is owner now is neither here nor there. Land Rover is owned by an Indian firm, but people don't call it an 'Indian' car. Proton owned the UK's Lotus for a while, but Lotus was not called a 'Malaysia' car. Similarly, Geely bought Volvo, but that is not known as a 'Chinese' car. If any of these premium marques were to be relabelled as Indian/Malaysian/Chinese, they would lose all their customers lol. China is great for making cheap EVs (with designs and technology mostly copied from western brands) that catch fire and are generally not safe on the road. It's not going to break that image of IP theft and cheap/tacky/low quality manufacturing any time soon.
I’m currently in Iceland and outside of the US truly for the first time and now I truly understand how amazing travel is. Thanks for being an inspiration Zane, also great video as always. Keep up the good work.
Zane back at it again with another hit video. Kuala Lumpur has always been on my list, after watching the first 2 videos. The urge to travel to Malaysia has intensified. Great videos as always and love the trim 👌🏽
FYI, Damansara Heights is where retired civil servants in the 50's-60's live with their descendants. Houses used to be a lot more affordable there, hence you'd see that most of these houses are renovated, but these were way outside the normal living standard in Malaysia (how a group of civil servants get that type of money, I'll leave it to your imagination ;)). This is the best thing where you find 'old' money types except for royalty. Newer money live in the further outskirts of Shah Alam, Putrajaya, and Bangi.
Top tier civil servants (JUSA A, B, C) make up to RM20k a month and receive the same pension as their last drawn salary (100%) I.e. even up to RM16k a month, so no need to insinuate anything indecent here, at least not for all of them
@@zuriendrinkscoffee people reach jusa just before retirement, and how on earth they manage to fork out rm15k monthly payment not to mention the 10% downpayment (assuming a house is rm3 mil) for 30 years after retirement?
@@Lekirius 15k monthly payment? Well I'm sure you know it wouldn't have been RM3mil when they bought it. You yourself said it used to be a lot more affordable in the past. These houses would go for less than RM500k just 20-30 years ago. Unless you meant "in *their* 50s-60s" and not "in the 50s-60s" (I.e. the years of 1950s and 1960s). And many people reach JUSA around 10-15 years before retirement. Also, if they bought it while working in civil service, they also get more favourable loan terms. Meanwhile, many retirees continue working in the private sector after retiring from civil service, mostly as consultants where they make serious money as well. Anyway I was just amused that you think there's no way any govt servant can make enough money to buy a nice house in a nice neighbourhood. Sure, we know there are those who are less scrupulous, but many are honest and are just good at managing their finances.
In the 70s, Damansara Height and later TTDI DS houses were sold at around RM 50k per unit, well within the reach of civil servant income, what more if both husband and wife are working which was the trend back then. The salary of average gradute civil servants in their 40s at that time was around RM 2k - 3k per month. So, towards the end of 70s many of them financially caple to acquire second houses elsewhere including bungalow units which were sold at around RM 120k in such places as Cheras. So those civil servants as they reached retirement at the age of 55, (around the early years of 2000s) the price of their houses already quadupled and together with their savings, service gratuity and golden hanshake money, they could easily upgrade to bigger house. They dont have to resort to malpractice whatsoever to achieve that. For graduate civil servant who opted for EPF, their accrued EPF saving was around RM 1M by the time they retired in early 2000s, which was a handsome amount at that time and still is I suppose. To get a clearer picture: In 1977 the year I entered the service, graduate starting salary ++ RM 1100; 3 b/r SS house in KL RM 35k; Toyota Corolla KE 30 or Datsun 120Y around RM 13k. Satu pinggan nasi campur lauk ikan masih boleh dapat rega RM 0.80, lauk ayam RM 1.00. PLUS highway pun baru buka sampai Seremban, Karak highway mula boleh guna setahun lepas tu.
You are ignorant. Back then the money was significantly 'bigger then today' those who stayed at D Heights are not a 'normal' civil servant. Not the common lower grade servant. Mind you those are with federal titles and not 'acquired' like some Chinese business man. Today D heights lived by those of 3rd generation or new house owner. No more civil servants can afford to stay d heights. Times change generation change. But cant say the same for you. Stuck in jelousy of B40
❤❤❤ Malaysia's Purchasing Power Parity GDP (PPP GDP) according to IMF is USD $1.307 Trillion and this puts Malaysia as the 30th largest economy in the world. The PPP GDP is a far better indicator of the country's economy than the rudimentary Nominal GDP because what you can buy locally with your local money is much more relevant than what you can get with the same amount of foreign currency in a distant foreign land.😂
Why didn't you return the steak and request a new one. One tip for American and British people in Malaysia, most restaurants follow the British doneness so if you're American always go one below like ask for medium rare if you want medium cooked. American restaurants do use American ways both in dining and bar drinks which again is different with the continental way.
regarding the steak, thats most probably due to local tastebuds..... most of us do not really like medium or below, hence the chef of most restaurant will cook it almost well-done usually (which is not suppose to be that way)
Hey Zane ✌🏼 For your info, the Food Trucks were there cause it's a Friday and they are parked across from the mosque for the patrons of the mosque pre and post Friday Prayer at noon. You won't find most of the trucks there on any other day or time. The trucks offer quick or ready-to-go meals for patrons that are rushed for time. Also, good pick with Shawn Cutler, where I get my hair styled 😁 good service and great hair stylists. For us loyal customers, we have a stylist that we make an appointment with and they know what to do everytime we come in. Also, Damansara Heights is a mature neighborhood, it's been around for a while. With mature neighborhoods, the houses have been renovated / personalized to the owners liking. Newer neighborhoods, though nice are pretty cookie cutter oriented. They are modern but all look pretty much the same and now mostly gated. Mt Kiara is a newer neighborhood and almost exclusively filled with high-end condominiums and some villas.
Idk if you have any plans or ever thought to go to Africa, but I'd love to see your style of travel vlog in Kigali or Nairobi. You're the only vlog that just does a nice walk around, show the sights, try some food, without obnoxious music or dumb commentary acting like it's the best place in the world.
There are hundreds of other rich neighbourhood like this in Greater KL. You can visit Taman Melawati, Kemensah, Bukit Antarabangsa, Tmn Tar, Tmn Bukit Hijau, Bukit Setiawangsa, Wangsa Maju, Mont Kiara, Sri Hartamas, Shah Alam areas, Kenny Hills, Jln Ampang, Cheras, Ampang Hilir, PJ areas, Kajang areas, BB Bangi areas, Putrajaya, Cyberjaya, Sepang, Tmn Tun Dr Ismail, Bdr Utama, Bangsar, Bukit Bangsar, Bukit Pantai and many more,.
Do visit petaling jaya in Malaysia - a recently church renovated just reopened there and has some really beautiful art inside in church of assumption pj
18:18 Proton is a Malaysian car brand since 80s. Now Geely of China owns 49% of Proton. Proton don't have electric car yet, they might launch one end of 2024
Go to Taman TAR (Tun Abdul Razak) in Ampang. It is old rich money housing area. Suitable for recreation with golf club, jogging forests and full of green shades all around.
If you want to see nice big bungalows, you can find it in Section 6 of Shah Alam, Selangor, less than 20km from KL. You can see 7 floor of bungalow, and i m sure you can't walk all the way because the bungalows continue to up hill.
If you are on a long stay, you should spend sometimes visiting KL suburbs like Subang Jaya, Petaling Jaya, Shah Alam, Putrajaya, Cyberjaya & Bangi. These are actually very developed cities around Kuala Lumpur.
Mate, I think you visited the poorer area of Damansara Heights. The more expensive houses are mostly on the hill and they are way bigger than the ones seen in this video.
Do you like India better now or Malaysia. Now like India Malaysia received independence from the British right, but Malaysia excelled maybe less population ?
Interesting and fun fact I don’t know that in Malaysia you can own land, I do know that in Thailand you can only own the property, condo or house. My friend in Chiang Mai Thailand he owns a home in a suburban neighborhood but had to have a local including his name on the deed. Luckily as a Fil-Am, I can have my family put my name on the land and be owner or property and land. Safe travels!!!
hhhhhhhhh This area is one of the most interisting old residential areas hhhhhhhh Among other luxury areas are around Kenny Hills, Jalan Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur hhhhhhhhhh This is a hilly area that is very quiet and peaceful hhhhhhhhh When I was teenager, I really liked to travel around this area by riding a motorcycle. hhhhhhhhhh Old memories that always tease my soul hhhhhhhh
Hi Zane I'm a Brit, living in KL for 10 years I live in mont Kiara and my in-laws live in Damansara heights. You want to meet up for a chat on life here let me know
If you want high quality expensive steaks, vantador in sri hartamas, they know their steaks. The mexican resturant inside is super yummy. Upstairs is high end indian food . Its not mount, its mont
Working in service industry I would suggest tipping as servers only get around three percent out of the service charge as it covers a lot of costs including breakages and other departments in the business. Calculate the amount you're paying for the server and you'll see it's not worth the work to handle an hour of work for a few ringgit. Servers actually can survive because of tipping. I've trained thousands of servers in casual dining all over south east Asia.
Zane you literally did not even see any of the real mansions of Damansara Heights. What you saw were the old civil servants houses that were just small houses, relatively speaking.
I don't think the house you show are ultra exclusive, same like in the US ultra exclusive/rich have their their own gated community. You'll need some networking to enter these places.
Shift home another side to much home and job all persons...bcz home big then all time maintain or............. whatever... ... Friends dost safety safe journey
And yet the Sultan of Brunei's summer residence in Malaysia is in Jalan Taman U-Thant (just off embassy row). Not Damansara. Plus, the sidewalks look awful. Potholes, broken pavements (that's if there is a pavement). No thanks!
bro u ordering a steak in Malaysia which hires local Malaysians who haven't even tried a proper steak in their life.. wasn't a right choice. If you need a decent food I recommend you go to Japanese or Korean restaurants otherwise you will not get what you want. But come on, $35 steak what do you expect more :P
Corruption? Probably no. But incompetence and fraud, these are obvious. Just read news about people's money missing from their accounts. Even the biggest bank in Malaysia does not bother to make sure records of customers' money are correct. I had thousands missing from its app. Despite repeated reminders, it still did not fix it. Fortunately I am mainly a computer user, so I could still see it elsewhere, and eventually transferred all of it out. Who knows one day the website will also become as broken as its app, then the money will be gone without any trace. This is a commercial company, probably the biggest bank in the country, and it is this bad. You can imagine how government organizations like EPF and inland revenue department are. Read their app reviews by users, and local forums about their performance.
You are in the wrong 😑 side of Damansara Heights, the really 🤔 rich 🤑 area of Damansara Heights is next to Federal Hill KL, you have the deceased billionaire Yeoh Tiong Lay’s house there, you have a few billionaires living there as well as multi millionaires !

Did you visit Ganting?
And yet the Sultan of Brunei's summer residence in Malaysia is in Jalan Taman U-Thant (just off embassy row). Not Damansara.
Plus, the sidewalks look awful. Potholes, broken pavements (that's if there is a pavement).
No thanks!

Brother where are you from please tell me
bro u ordering a steak in Malaysia which hires local Malaysians who haven't even tried a proper steak in their life.. wasn't a right choice.
If you need a decent food I recommend you go to Japanese or Korean restaurants otherwise you will not get what you want.
But come on, $35 steak what do you expect more :P
I'm curious, would you keep your money in a malaysian bank? Is there corruption there?
Your money is safe in any Malaysian banks.
@zulkiflysaadom3698 thanks for the answer- what's the best Malaysian bank for an expat/retiree?
@@stevef7798 The major ones are Maybank, CIMB, RHB, HLB, HSBC, Ambank, OUB...
Deposits insurance😊 protected up to RM250,000 per depositor per member bank.
Corruption? Probably no. But incompetence and fraud, these are obvious. Just read news about people's money missing from their accounts.
Even the biggest bank in Malaysia does not bother to make sure records of customers' money are correct. I had thousands missing from its app. Despite repeated reminders, it still did not fix it. Fortunately I am mainly a computer user, so I could still see it elsewhere, and eventually transferred all of it out. Who knows one day the website will also become as broken as its app, then the money will be gone without any trace.
This is a commercial company, probably the biggest bank in the country, and it is this bad. You can imagine how government organizations like EPF and inland revenue department are. Read their app reviews by users, and local forums about their performance.
Will you return to phillipines in the next year?
Confused why u want all the way to Nepal to stay in Kathmandu and only for a week what a waste. You just tick off countries for the sake of it
Haha, U.S and China rich peoples are far richer than rich Malaysians
By the way I am Malaysian🤣🤣
And so are the homeless in New York, Los Angeles and more. We got no tent cities here though you can find homeless.
OUR PETROL IS A BETTER QUALITY COMPARED TO MANY SEA COUNTRIES.
This is one of the funniest comment threads ever
Money is not everything. Malaysians are great people. I love them.

You are in the wrong 😑 side of Damansara Heights, the really 🤔 rich 🤑 area of Damansara Heights is next to Federal Hill KL, you have the deceased billionaire Yeoh Tiong Lay’s house there, you have a few billionaires living there as well as multi millionaires !
