Crime rate has reduced in Malaysia. However, it doesn't mean that it's crime free. When you walk, it's better to walk against the traffic so that you can see the cars or motorbikes that are driving towards you. When you carry your handbag, make sure that it is further away from the oncoming vehicles so that it won't be easy for the snatch thieves to snatch your bag. As mentioned earlier, crime rate is pretty low as compared to 10 years ago. So, you don't have to worry, but you still have to be alert.
Snatch thief cases were most rampant 10 years...i was robbed ard 2013/ 2014 by a snatch thief at KL Sentral/Hilton walkway...but such cases almost unheard of nowadays, still better to exercise caution, especially be wary of motorcyclists getting by you.

Here in Malaysia, there isn't that much street food which you see set up along the road because there are usually designated area for hawkers to set up their stalls. Usually the local council will require workers to get typhoid vaccinations, owners should have their permits and the premises must be clean. There will be spot checks by the local officials also. Any illegal stalls set up will be taken down especially when they are reported. Since you are planning to organise your holidays around the country's holidays, i suggest that you buy an Almanac, your colleagues should know about it. It tells you what type of events or festivals are being celebrated. Also it helps, as you can do your own research on what these events or festivals are about. Then maybe plan your holidays to coincide with these events so that you can experience more of the local culture.
You'll also notice that there's not much honking from cars or bikes in Kuala Lumpur city. Sometimes it's really really quiet even in the city centre!😅😊
I live in KLCC on Jalan Ampang and can tell from experience there is continuous honking and streetnoise from traffic. Add to that the notorious mat rempits during the night, loud music from night clubd and you may realize this city is nót quiet at all.
First thing comes to mind; loving the fashion. Handsome couple, definitely. Thank you for all the recommendations. Good taste, is one big plus for this couple.
My younger self just loved to dream about living in NYC, but right now I think I am pretty grateful to be living in Malaysia. Hope you two enjoy living here and don't forget to plan your long weekend holidays in advance!
Tipping is not a culture here, it is not necessary or even expected. However, depending on the location or the service, if you do tip, it is still well appreciated and there tends to be a greater sense of gratitude for receiving such a tip. TBH, service staff do not get paid much in Malaysia, so there is nothing wrong with tipping if you feel like they deserve a tip. Personally, I only tip when the service provided was excellent or to grab riders and drivers who were very friendly and helpful, or even to the bellboy in a hotel if they helped to carry my luggage up to the room. But at the end of the day, you should never feel a need to tip. A tip should be a sign of appreciation and not a right. Just glad we dont have a tipping culture here, makes the act of tipping more meaningful.
As a Malaysian, some Malaysians walk too slow for my liking. And some dont understand the escalator concept of moving to the left to allow some people to climb up the escalator rather than wait and stand on it. Especially if they dont use public transport often or out of towners.
U will definitely regrets why don't make it earlier to relocate in Malaysia. U will find quality of life in Malaysia, we worked but we must have good quality of life & don't bring your work stress back home. If you go through long day in workplace just take time to chill out before go back home because our mental health most important in giving productive job.
Showering 2 times a day is normal over this side of the world. 3 times normally is when you do some extra activities. SO now your mission is to learn the mix languages so you interact better with the local.
While crime rate is low, don’t let your guard down. Be wary of snatch thieves. Rule of thumb, don’t make yourself a target. Also, take your time to distinguish between Malaysians and migrants. Also, while tipping isn’t the culture here, some restaurants do ask for “service charge” (around 6-10%). This is actually tip already included in your bill.
Yes, both the cities, NYC and KL have their own attractions, vibes, charm and beauty from the places and their people, food, art, culture, tradition and history. Hope that you guys blend in well with the local culture in KL. Most of the differences are quite obvious.
Gasoline is subsidized in MY which is why Grab is so cheap. I'm on my third week here in Malaysia. Originally from NYC via Manhattan; been nomadic since 2010. An hour and a half Grab ride to the Batu Caves from KL costed 60-70 ringgit. Food is cheap and as much as I avoid malls, I succumbed as there's not much other things to do or areas to hang out in within KL which is sad (to me). Even their nightlife street are mainly British style pubs which is not my speed. I had higher hopes for the city but don't think I'd be entertained enough to stay longer. The ppl are amazing however and I was impressed with almost all I had encountered. Very safe.
Malaysia is more family oriented country which explains the food, cars and the relaxed life. People usually choose Thailand for fun. You can come back when you settle down with kids and have fun in Malaysian theme park,island and forest. It's a shame one can't be good at everything 😂
Take a trip to Genting Highlands as the weather is cooler. Its just 45 minutes bus journey from KL and another 15 minutes cable car ride to the top of the resort. U.S travellers and europeon travellers call it the Las Vegas of malaysia.
The angles where you put the phone camera somewhere to have still-shot is actually a very nice touch to these videos you make. Glad you're settling in the country happily
Glad you guys are settling down pretty well. Like anywhere, crimes are inevitable buy yeah, it's much more safer than many other countries I have visited. So blessed to have access to food anywhere anytime, literally 24 hours if u really look for it. Try supper in KL guys, you ll be amazed what's in the offer. As you know, we Malaysians always take pride in our food - literally eating our way from dawn to dust😂

I’m so happy to hear New Yorkers loving KL and M’sia a lot more than NY!! I’m M’sian born, but have been in SG for years, after a week’s trip to KL last week and all these videos by foreigners about loving their stay in M’sia, I intend to move back to M’sia (likely PJ) after I retire from the hectic life in SG. The other amazing thing about M’sia are the food and of course, friendly warm people! You’re of course comparing prices in USD terms, and that for sure makes M’sia “cheaper” than the States. But TBH cost of living in M’sia especially food prices have sky rocketed in recent years! Even with my strong SGD spending power in M’sia, I still find it very expensive so I really feel it for the locals 😓
Try to come back for shorter stays first and see how u feel.Reason why there’s so many TH-camrs in Malaysia is becos it’s very easy to get views here..especially from locals..in fact 99% of viewers are Malaysians..TH-camrs know that as long as they say nice things about Malaysia the videos would fare well. Ultimately you hv to rmb after living in Singapore and getting used to the efficiency,safety and cleanliness it may take a while to adjust back.

You should consider going to desa park city. Best place to live in KL with lots of expats. lots of greeneries and great condos. You will love it for sure
I love giving gifts of bottled drinks n snacks n occasionally extra money to the delivery boys cause they are so hard-working. I am a retiree n regarded them as my children.

I stayed in Brooklyn and Staten Island then moved back to Brooklyn again. Oh, I miss Bo Kee 's (or Ky?)noodle in Mott Street (cross Bowery Street if I could remember it correctly) , NYC.
Lots of Mall coz’ of the weather in Malaysia. Hot and humid so its so comfortable shopping in the mall then street shopping. FYI, The first mall was Ampang Park (70’s) already demolished to make way for the MRT. Anyway eversince then Malaysia built malls by the hundreds if not thousand till today, LOL just joking 🤣🤣
