YES YES YES
I as Malaysian want to thank you very much for coming to my country. Hand shake is actually okay with the non muslim, but for the muslim, you cant hand shake with anyone that is not your same gender or your family. For the acohol you can find it in supermarket such tesco, giant or 7e but remember dont drink it in public. Hugging or kissing is okay if you're married but dont do french kiss, you will get an awkward stare from people surrounding. Most likely everyone in Malaysia can speak english cause it's our second language and we learned it since kids at school. And for pointing finger to show direction, for us it seem quite rude, so instead of pointing finger, we use our thumb(make a fist, most Malaysian do this) or point by using all fingers. If want to see much more culture and ethnics, do come to sabah and sarawak. There's more than 30 ethnics.
Thank you so much!
Yaaa Sabah and sarawak

Okay.. This is pretty good comment.. 👍
Musnina Muhammad google ? Huh 😏 igt adik adik sekolah kot
10.. yes Muslim cant handshake with opposite gender. It is our religion , Islam. But if you meet Indian or Chinese or other than Muslim they do handshake.
9.. The reason why we cant use shoes everywhere bcs of our cleanliness and also respect 💕
8.. No PDA, kissing, hugging.. bcs the main population here is Muslim, we are taught not to.
7.. I think most Malaysian can speak English because it was a core subect too in our school.😄
6.. Umbrella ? Oh yeah. We are here in Khatulistiwa.. it is like that, can't help with that 😅
5.. Malay is a race, Malaysian is ALL of us. You got it right here 😀
4.. Again, because most of us is Muslim. Alcohol,beer; you will not have it in most place. But if you want it, you can find it at 7Eleven.
3.. Malay eat beef, so actually it is easy for you to find it maybe it was a wrong place. Sorry for that.
2.. It is just a polite way to point. Weve been taught since we are kids 😊
1.. Durian. IT IS A KING OF FRUIT HERE 😍 You will get a cheap durian when it is the season but most place you can eat it at stall but yeah in the hotel or restaurent or shopping market or airport it is prohibited.
💕 Love from Terengganu, Malaysia. 💕
Ahhh yea thats what we thought!
@@DivertLiving you should go to morning market or pasar tani. there are a lot of people selling beef there. it's actually easy to find beef in malaysia.
the polite way to point direction in malaysia is by using your thumb. that's why you see people clenched their fist but actually they pointed direction with their thumb.
6. Khatulistiwa = Equator 😂😂

English is very commonly spoken in Malaysian. The english language has become the second language of the country. Malaysian people learn english since kindergarten. That’s why malaysian people can speak in english even it is not so good.
Its so helpful for travellers :)
Yes. FYI, the primary language is Bahasa Malaysia. All Malaysian knows how to speak this language
@@mizsdora5593 bahasa malaysia ? Not bahasa melayu eh ?
@@najibaslam2506 Dalam Perlembagaan Persekutuan, Perkara 152 menyatakan bahawa bahasa Melayu sebagai bahasa kebangsaan dan dijadikan bahasa rasmi negara Malaysia. Dari sudut ilmu, bahasa Melayu disandarkan kepada bangsa Melayu dan peradaban Melayu. Walau bagaimanapun, kabinet memutuskan istilah bahasa Malaysia turut digunakan selain bahasa Melayu untuk menyemai semangat kekitaan dalam kalangan rakyat Malaysia. Maka, penggunaan kedua-dua istilah tersebut boleh disesuaikan mengikut konteks penggunaannya. Contohnya, jika merujuk ketamadunan Tanah Melayu, maka penggunaan yang paling tepat ialah bahasa Melayu.

Malay Muslim do not consume pork and alcohol, and Hindu do no consume beef, Hindu love mutton and Chinese love pork and duck roast but Malay do not much consume duck... malay just enjoy telur masin (duck salt egg)...haha🦆 ...some Chinese and Indian are vegetarian... some malay also eat vegetarian food if they go out with vege friends..
Anyway... most of us really enjoy Chicken!🐓🐣 it suit all races...thats is the reason why KFC is the most enjoyable restaurant for all Malaysian...
Mamak Restaurant also suit malay, chinese and indians food code.. thats is the reason Mamak is very popular here... anyway, roti canai and dhal is a kind of light meal that suit for everybody...
Enjoy to be Malaysian...🇲🇾🤗

For men, you can’t shake women’s hand. For women, you can’t shake men’s hand. And one more thing, even if someone is indian or Chinese, they could be muslim too
Yes ,btul
Omg yes
and they could be christian as well 😂
My friend is chinese and she is muslim
Only in Malaysia😆
There are few things you are wrong about the pork and beef stuff...
The 3 majority races or religious in malaysia is muslim, chinese, indian.
Hence in this 3 races, muslim are NOT allowed to eat pork. Indian are NOT allowed to eat beef. And some chinese are vegetarian. So you might see easier for chicken and fish.
Ahh yea that is what i thought! Thank you so much!
Couldn’t agreed more melvin
Correction to your comment as well. Muslim is not a race. It is a group of people who subscribe to the religion Islam. I believe you are refering to Malay if you are comparing with other races like Chinese or Indian. because there are such thing a Chinese Muslims, Indian Muslims, American Muslims etc who are not malay by ethnic.

Yeah my Mom's boss brought him and her friends travelled in his own car to eat durians after work .. he even put those durians in his expensive car. I guess Malaysian will always be Malaysian lol.
I’m Malaysian Chinese. Nice introduction to all the travellers. English is our first or second language, for Chinese most of them can speak at least 3 languages which is Malay, English and mandarin, and some others can speak hokkien, Cantonese and more. In Malaysia is quite good, because you can try different cultural that’s multicultural.
We love it there because of that!
@stealth fighter nope.
stealth fighter come to KL there are so many Filipinos staying here..love them.
stealth fighter in your dream...
We are Malaysian bro. 🤘
It's not just about it being a muslim majority country, it's about Asian value. How often do you see people in Japan, China or India smooch in public, especially the elderlies?
No many!
Exactly!
Good thinking
Because most of the Muslims give more birth rate than other races especially Chinese (Indians' birth rate is little better than Chinese, and I don't know about other races). The population of Chinese gone down quite much compared to the time Malaysia gets its independence due to numerous emigration and mass declining birth rate and increasing unmarried rate plus better healthcare policy in Malaysia, so you can see more and more increasing elderly among Chinese population which makes the ratio of the Chinese elderly vs whole Chinese population going higher and higher every year.
There’s a trick where you can eat pork and beef. So i’m gonna give you some tips in case you’re visiting Malaysia again in future. So the Malaysia consist of a lot of race and culture, majority will be the Malay, Chinese and Indian. Everyone have things they can consume and can’t consume. For the Malay, they do not eat pork and no alcohol. For Chinese some of them do not consume cow meat, while for Indian majority of them didn’t eat beef too because Cows are holy for them. So if you’re going to Malay restaurant (u can identify them if you see someone wearing hijab in the restaurant or some of the signage will have arabic words written) - they always have meat which we call as Daging. So if you see on the menu written with Daging word in it, it mean the food have meat in it. For Chinese restaurant, easiest to find ask the local Chinese people where is the nearest hawker, the best place to have Chinese food may also have Malaysian food. Most of the time it’ll look like an open space with a lot of small booth/vendor stall here and there. You may find pork and chicken and alcohol. For the Indian restaurant it might be tricky, coz everyone go to Mamak to have curry but again no pork. There’s only chicken, meat and seafood curry. There’s an Indian restaurant that i know in Penang there wont be any meat nor pork, i’m not sure about the alcohol. For the market wise it seem you went to small wet market. You’ll need to find biggest market. Usually it will split into 2 section wet and dry. The majority will be selling seafood, few poultry and maybe 1-2 butcher (either cow or lamb or both) and there’s pork from another vendor. Like i mentioned just now we consist on Many races and religious and like in your videos Majority are muslim. So muslim do not eat pork that’s why some of the vendor do not sell meat/lamb together with pork (majority of muslim will be Malay but there’s Indian muslim and Chinese muslim as well, hence why i will just call it as Muslim). Hope this will help, come again to Malaysia and stay safe during this Pandemic 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
my friend who lives in Malaysia she says everyone learns English starting in kindergarten

English is common in Malaysia. Most people can speak or understand English. English is a compulsory subject in school.
Generally Malaysian knows many languages. Especially in town or cities.
Malays know Malay & English.
Indians know Malay, English & Tamil.
Chinese know Malay, English, Mandarin, and some other dialects like Cantonese, Hockien, etc.
This is just generally speaking. Of course there are some knows more than that.
Thats what we noticed!
Calvin F and me myself barely can speak malay, english, arabic, and all state dialect in Malaysia inc sabah, brunei and sarawak😂😂 cause malaysian mostly can speak other language fluently
In Sarawak,
Malay can speak malay, English & Iban language.
Chinese can speak Malay, English, Mandarin, & Iban Language.

There are 3 major races & 14 states in Malaysia. The recipes are different from every races & states. That's why you could find thousands kind of food. Even for us Malaysian, we never taste all kind of Malaysia's food
There are a few mistakes you made.
1. Pork and beef are found in abundance in Malaysia. The Malaysian Chinese which constitute 1/4 of the population have pork in their menu everyday, the Chinese markets do sell pork. The Malays love beef, so there're lots of beef in the Malay market but not in Chinese or Indian markets . I think you just went to the wrong markets.
2. Alcohol can be drunk quite readily in Chinese and Indian restaurants in Malaysia. You went to the Malay-owned restaurants.
3. Malaysia's good command of English is due to the English education in Science and Maths subjects unlike Thailand and also due to the broadcast of English movies in its original form and not dubbed like in Thailand. So it is NOT because of British colonial influence but giving more acknowledgment that it is a useful international language.
4. The so-called 'Malaysian's that you met in the video are actually foreigners like the Bengali workers sitting on the bus and the Nepalese guard that you asked directions from. There is a huge foreign worker population (10%) in Malaysia who can speak basic Malay language.
#Malaysian squad 😁😁
Actually, your last point for the third one can be apply for Sabah and Sarawak.

Hi, I'm a Malaysian from Sabah which is the East Side of Malaysia. I had to explain it like that because not everyone knows the existence of Sabah. I love how you both explained about the things that you shouldn't do in Malaysia. Please come to Sabah and experience the beauty and maybe vlog about it. 😊. You'll find that in Sabah, there are many ethnics that you both may have never heard of. I myself am a Kadazan, I wonder if you both have ever heard of it🤔.. Oh and also, if you plan to come to Sabah, come during the Harvest Festival which is on the 30th & 31st May. Visit this specific place - - - KDCA on that date. So start planning for next year 😉
nal faholo Hello how are you
But in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo, there's also rule that you can't do:
1. No public nudity
2. Respect their cultures
3. Muslim women also not allowed to do hand shake with men.
Another thing,
*beware of myvi and penang driver LOL*

for the handshake part... it's like this:
- you cant touch someone from the other gender that you can marry
Ahhh ok! Thank you so much!
This is true
Say that they're between the age of 5-14. Would it be okay for the opposite gender to shake hands?

1)Remove your shoes before entering home is actually an Asian thing
2)Beer can be found if you go to Chinese Restaurant (You totally have to do a little research first)
3)I don't know why you weren't able to found beef but Just like Muslim don't eat Pork,Hindu/Buddish (I'm a bit confused about this tho) also don't eat beef
4) Actually,when you take shuttle bus, usually a lot of Bangladesh or Myanmar use the bus.The one that you shake hands in the video is actually a Bangladesh (people from country Bangladesh)
5) Actually, there's nothing wrong to point your forefinger,but for us, it's polite to point with your thumb instead.
@Genjutsu World Channel yes of course that's what I meant to say
Nice explaination for point 5👍
Well The point is Just be nice each other and just respect each other to and.. whatever the reason for such a thing we should respect them regardless of the different religions of that person.well nice to meet you all...peace guy's..fan from Malaysia 🤗🤗
Hi! We totally agree! We have to just respect all cultures and you will be fine!
Divert Living where are you from?
u can point your finger or even full fingers to show direction, there's nothing wrong about it, but just don't point it to a person while you were talking and then when he/she seeing u doing like that, it's like you are talking something about them and that probably going to get you
Actually,we can speak English. But most of Malaysians don't know / don't understand your English. The problem may be because of your accent / slang.
And,you can enter with your shoes on (shops),but some of them you can't. :)
Also,yes,you can't point with your 👆🏻 finger,use 👍🏻 instead.
You can eat beef,but not pork,it's very disrespectful to us,especially Muslims. Or should I say,whole country?
Whole country?
i disagree with the pork part, it is not disrespectful, its just we muslims cant eat it ,but it is served in chinese restaurant. so no it is not disrespectful at all
Uhh,not the whole country. Remember Malaysia is a multiracial country. The Muslim can't eat pork and the Hindus don't eat beef, it really depends on our respective religion ,so don't classify it as "disrespectful" to the whole country..😂

There are a lot of bars here where they serve pork and also alcohol.
love your video! from malaysia
Thats what we hear
I think i might have to disagree w your statement that says Christians are majority here because Muslims is actually the majority in here w 55%+ overall population in borneo/east malaysia.
Hi guys,,
Im from Chiang mai, Thai
but i living in Malaysian 10 years already and really love to living here..
To me..different religion very good in one country..at least we can know a lot of things about Malaysian..
We are love Malaysian😂
We think its good to!
Hei where u live? Wht city? I Bangkok haha sawatdi
1. You can get alcohol just about everywhere but don't go to a restaurant open by Malays as chances are they don't provide alcohols.
2. Pork you can get it at non halal restaurants while beef is quite common, I'm not sure why you find it difficult to get.
3. You just don't shake hands with a religious Muslim man if your opposite sex, but yet again not everyone really follows the rules.
Anyhow hope you enjoy your stay here in KL. Should go around jalan Alor and Bukit Bintang, Changkat, bangsar
You could've just said, "You can get alcohol just about everywhere--just don't expect to get it at a Malay restaurant."
Can you not say like that? Because we as a tourist don't want get any trouble to muslim and we respect the culture and we dont want to ruin the culture. I think you just being disrespect to other religion. Damn feels bad about you. LOL
Ch33ki3princess Bcz we people at malaysia dont eat pork bcz most of melayu is *MUSLIM* .. *MUSLIM* peoples cannot eat pork.. its non halal ofc
Foreigner doesn't want to go at the Indian or Chinese restaurant. When they traveling here, mostly they wanna taste the real culture of Malaysia.. of course they have to respect the bumiputras culture more..
Still, you shouldn't shake the opposite gender's hand. no matter how not religious they are. respect is an important word, sis :)
Because our wet markets are divided.. we don't sell beef, chicken, fish, pork, lamb and others in the same place
dekat kelantan ada market yang jual sekali
@@fm6460 sure, check out travel with bolu
I love how respectful both of you are! Respect begets respect
Thank you so much!
You cant trust the weather ! HAHAHAHAHA YES 100% yes
jahahhahahah its so true!
Divert Living have you been to penang
No. It's 100.1% YeS.
haha im malaysian...so true.

❌13 STARTLING Things Not To Do In ASIA : bit.ly/2G5Hodv
Instead of 'Dont do this in Malaysia' it should be 'Things that we find Unique/Different/Interesting/New in Malaysia'.
Seeing some -ve comment in the comment section kind of threw me off since this video solely based on your views of Malaysia and not things that happen daily or represent Malaysia/Malaysian as a whole.
Great video btw but I only hope you guys did a little bit of research before posting the video.
it's different in sarawak..
about the hand shake ting, its not because yre a male, it is the same goes to the opposite sex... the females dont hand shake with a male whos not in blood related. but this usually those devoted muslims, mostly the elderly, very rare in the city.
I would like to suggest, do come to Borneo (Sarawak and Sabah) is totally diferent slight of Malaysia.
well then start reading the comments from the malaysians and change the title of your negative video. other naive tourists might actually think they can get fined or prosecuted for every little thing and not visit the country.
your clips and narrations are well done, very honest and respectful. it is also quite informative. thanks.
I love how u portrayed the Msia's taboo/restrictions in respectful ways. As an avid traveller myself, i too see restrictions r not only culture but what make them unique. Kudos! ❤️
Thank you so much
So proud being a malaysian 🧡 some of us can speak in english , but cant reply in english also can understand english 😂 do u understand what i said ? 😂😂😂😂
Hahah yes! I really do!!
Yeah because i myself afraid if my classmates laugh at me because of 'not so fluent' in speaking English😅 i did have this experience when i was in form 4. The one who laughs at me is speaking fluently in English😅
@@atirahwafa522 hahaha . Rilek rilek . Aku kalau nyanyi lagu english habis semua gelak 😂😂 tapi masa form 5 , english dah okay sikit and bila dah masok college , presentation , assignment semua english 😭 petak . Tapi sekarang ni slow2 dah boleh cakap english . Ahhaha , u can do it too . 💪💪💪
@@soffia4269 😂😂😂
Wait..... ARMY!!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
NEVER ask the Malaysian about the politics and the prime minister...there will be a war...trust me
I never talk politics trust me haha
Because our ex prime minister was the worst corrupt PM in Malaysian history hahaha
Yg ni lawak...,=_=
Hahahaha
Ikr....🤣
Found your video helpful , thank you for posting it!
Now covid..we cant shake hand to random people. So we muslim practise that for along time.
Just easy say hello
Now the whole world is practicing indian greeting style
Yeah not easy for me
Ah yes finally somebody is highlighting the difference between malay and malaysian. I think you missed out to elaborate that malay is an ethnic group.. not only in malaysia, but also in singapore, brunei and some parts of indonesia.
Becuase most of the time i get mistaken as Malaysian when i tell people that i am sort of malay and i am not a Malaysian.
(It's quite sad that nobody knows of the existence of other races in Singapore besides the Chinese)
We really tried!
"Their conversational skills are very well." Good English!
Kidding aside, this was a very informative video on a country often overlooked by most travelers. There's a million videos on Thailand but so few on Malaysia yet they are neighbors!
Ahh yea we really love MAlaysia thank you for watching!
let us know if we ca
pignu the rat pyu

After more than a year, now so many foreigners do videos about malaysia.....and ofc malaysian flocks to their videos 😂

I'm Malaysian and I eat beef at least 4x a week. You can find beef menu in those restaurant. Usually the menu will be in Bahasa Melayu but you can ask them. Example you wanna order Fried Noodle but instead of Chicken you wanted to change to Beef. Just tell them and they will cook it for you. In Bahasa Melayu, Beef is called Daging Lembu or most commonly use is Daging. Malay can eat Beef, Chicken, Fish, Seafod except Pork & Alcohol. It's forbidden in Islam. Some Buddhist Chinese can't eat Beef because they pray to Guan Yin.
This is cool! I never knew that! We will make sure to remember that for our next trip there!
And our Hindu friends do not eat beef as well.
All Buddhist Chinese don't eat beef NOT some. Those Chinese who eat beef are either atheist or Christians.
Warcy are you sure? Some of my Chinese friends do eat Beef and they’re buddhist not Christian. They explained to me that only who pray to Guan Yin can’t eat Beef.
Warcy Most Buddhist are allowed to eat beef but Buddhist who pray to Guan Yin are not allowed to eat beef. Buddhist who pray to Guan Yin show sincerity in the form of not eating beef whereas other Buddhist show their sincerity by obeying the Buddha’s teachings.
Good reviews of Malaysia. Well done guys!
Thank you so much!
@@DivertLiving always a pleasure🙏😍
Been working in Malaysia for 3 years and its a second home to me ❤️ people in general are approachable and friendly.
Love this country
We do as well!
The guy in the bus is not even Malaysian LOL...
Hi Kamyin ! We can't really differentiate hahah
Hahaha.. that guy is also foreigner.. Bangladeshi
But some are Malaysian
trueeee😂😂😂
Lmao true! I'm about to scream! 😂😂😂
wow,so malaysia is gaining popularity now?I as a malaysian dont know my country is getting popular,but Im proud to see how people make videos about my country
Hi ! A lot of our friend or whomever we met while traveling always dream of traveling in Malaysia !:D
Really?im happy to hear that!and I also respect that you studied about how things are in Malaysia as an islamic country.
Hi Army 👋👋👋👋
@@mrsjhope9616 hey there♡
They’re making bad comments and giving false information.... in case you haven’t noticed. That’s nothing to be proud of. Lol
I am going to study in Malaysia next year. It's really useful, thanks.
Thank you for the video! I liked a lot! I am just starting my time here!
Indecent behavior restriction is not because of Islamic law, but lies under the 5th pillar of Malaysia (rukun negara) which brings the meaning of being modest and well manners (kesopanan dan kesusilaan). The rules is not just for the muslim but for every Malaysia..being modest in behavior as well as on social media as well.
ahhh yea that makes sense! Thank you so much for letting us know!
It's just a basic mannerisms. Hugging is actually ok but grabbing not. Kissing as in greetings on the cheek is ok but french kissing is not.
If thats the case, many are not following the 5th Rukun Negara because I see shit comments on facebook everyday.
@@-MarkWinston- couldnt agree more. Should really create awareness bout this
But i trust that islam is 1th
i love how u guys pay attention, observance, and mindful about the local norms and cultures.
it is part of great travelling experience that most travellers easily missed.
thank you Ruffey ! Exploring the new / different culture is truly the charming part of traveling !:D
Thank you for interested in Malaysia and I can see that you try your best to understand Malaysia. As u mentioned at the end of the video, Malaysia is a multi-cultural country, so we all takes years or even whole life trying to understand each ethnics and races cultures. I'm a Chinese and I even learnt something from this video. Most important is to respect each of everyone. Malaysia is a lot different from the "Western countries" which we always refer to.
thank you for sharing a good infomation about our country. we love both of you
Aww we love you to!
Try visiting Sabah. there's so many beautiful island and delicious food here, even people from Peninsular Mlysia admit that food in Sabah is really delicious. And also the seafood are fresh and cheaper than at Peninsular. People here are really friendly and theres no racism. Maybe if u come here its just kind of awkward for us Sabahan people to see foreigner/tourist visit our places bcoz tourist who came here not as much as in KL. Lastly, most of Sabahan here can speak English pretty good & fluent bcoz some of them have mix with Philippine blood. So, you guys are always welcomed to Sabah 😃
Aww thank you! We plan to travel more of malaysia this year!
he was
I'm in Sabah jum pi Sabah best di sini
@@DivertLiving yeahh, you can visit anytime. we always welcoming u 😊
Kewl the state that I'm living in. Hi I'm 12 btw

I'd run away from this bitch and never come back if I could
Wow, this is extremely helpful.
Thank you so much!
Cool video. Thanks for the info. Great commentary.
Thank you so so much!
Glad that you like travelling to Malaysia.. while u guys travel here don't feel weird if some of us ignore or not greet u guys.. sometimes they do know and understand english but they just don't have any confident to speak because of the wrong grammar..😅😅
Its ok! not a big deal!
IzaKinoshita I agree with you
haha betullah tu
Thank you...as a Malaysian i'm really happy you experienced well about us.
Some people think durian smells good but not all of the people!..i love the smell bytheway
there is malaysian word said : "I thought the sky was clear all day, but it was raining in the middle of the day" 🤣.. same like our life.. we not know what gonna happen later🤣
hahahhaha
lmao i kno dat song
Most of the point is true, but as a Malaysian, i think I have to point out something too:
1. Handshakes are fine to most Malaysian, except for some Muslim girls as they are not allowed to have physical contacts with opposite gender, but I believe our society is more open nowadays and it's totally fine especially u r in cities.
If you're really concern about handshakes thing, it's always better to Nod your head as greetings because it's quite common in Malaysia too.
2. Beef is very common to be found in Malaysia food, maybe our beef is not served in the form which western does, but Beef is still a lot more common to be found compare to pork in Malaysian Food. Buddhist and Hindus don't eat beef, so you can't find beef in most Indian and Chinese restaurant, but nost Chinese in Klang Valley do consume beef.
Pork is not allowed to be consumed by Muslim. You can only find pork in Chinese Food among the local Malaysian Food.
3. We Malaysians believe that it's more polite to point with our thumb, and we always try out best to treat our visitor well, that's why it's rare to see a Malaysian will show you direction with index finger when you ask for help.
(P/s: 1:24 the guy doesn't look like Malaysian to me, more likely to be a Bangladeshi)
Thank you for making this clear! your support and information mean a lot to us!
You're welcome :)
Next time you should try our famous Rendang Beef :)
Bro thank you for pointing it oit man. Im from malaysia as well
Happy Malaysia Day bro :)
@@tanahtumpahnyadarahku you too
U say Malaysians don't point directions...until u meet me😂😂I didn't even know that,I point at everything
hahah You are unique!
Im the same
😂😂😂
me too
I don't even know anyone who doesn't point lol
One of the ettiquettes in giving direction is the person is advisable to use thumb, or a few fingers to show .It is because by using index finger to show direction is considered rude as if you're giving command. Tht's included in moral book i.e. how to hand in scissors, sharp knife to people etc.
Always the best information. Thanks.
If u guys come to malaysia, u should visit Sabah & Sarawak.
😊😊😊
Thats the plan for next year!
Jangan pergi Kampung Vietnam Sudah😁😁
Sabah & Sarawak is definitely more open and yes, beautiful scenery and culture 😊
Yes its true
max adam pergi ke felda umas,tawau
Honey..you show Malaysia to the world..THANK YOU..well,we speak ENGLISH!!! second language dear..go to Sabah and Sarawak,Malaysia next time honey..
Thank you!!

Oh my gosh, Malaysia is getting so popular! I'm seeing lots of foreigners and as a result, Lots of popular shops are popping up! This is great! (I live in Malaysia, and am a Muslim. I'm 12 and have lived here my entire life owo)
Edit: I don't know Malay whatsoever, But most people speak English so it's not a problem!
Edit Edit: 13 now woop
Yes it makes traveling for us foreigners a lot easier!
KiaraMoonii aye same
Thats why we have a qoute for weather :
Ku sangka panas sampai ke petang,

I though it was sunny day until evening, but suddenly its raining in the afternoon..
Congratulations 🎉 this video has reached 1M views.
Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for visiting us and am happy that you both had a great time in our country 🙏😊
Not sure if you have visited the state of Malacca. There's a different type of sub-ethnic group called Baba Nyonya/Peranakan and the Peranakan cuisine is another highlight. It's a mixture of the Chinese and Malay cuisine. Do Google Peranakan/Baba Nyonya cuisine and you'll find lots of good restaurants in malacca that serves them 😊
Hope you both are staying safe and well 🙏 take care and come back soon when it's safe again!
Thank you so much! We really want to come back soon!
@@DivertLiving No worries at all! ☺️ Also be wary of your belongings in Malaysia when you're walking around. Carry light if you're in crowded places and watch out for your wallets and phones.
Just another note I will need to let you both know about hahah.
Thanks again and looking forward to new content from you both soon! Love your videos 🙏
