Out of my own experience JB is maybe not perse the 2nd best city in Malaysia. Though it’s nice to visit as a tourist for a few days. Including JB I can recommend to go to; George Town, Malacca, Ipoh, Kuanta, and KL if you’re interested to visit Malaysian cities. What Malaysian cities do you recommend to go to for people who are visiting from outside of Malaysia?

The problem with many of the least popular states in Malaysia is due to the lack of efforts to promote and upgrade its infrastructures to be more tourist friendly. Johor has many hidden gems that are worthy of highlighting and make it more inviting to visitors. But then again, due to lack of effort from the relevant people. What a pity. There're some really good Chinese restaurants in Johor that sells delicious seafood dishes.😊
