Kuala Lumpur RATED on 10 Factors (Our HONEST Review)

[@ninjaturtle6106]

We Malaysians..born and bred here DO NOT like the heat as well. That's why you don't see us walking outside or go to the beach during the day. If we parked our cars for several hours under hot Sun, it's an Oven. Leather seated Cars are worst. When we see Foreign Tourists walking in the heat of the Sun..with NO UMBRELLA, we're amazed!! I love the rain. Umbrellas sell very well here 😊

I lived 26 years in Phoenix. Arizona, where the temperature gets to be 110°-115°in the summertime of course there is very little humidity but still hot is hot. When it gets to 115° or hotter it is like 95° in a more humidity state. About 20° difference. It rains about 8.5 inches in a YEARS time frame. DO you think I would like KL?

I’ve lived from N.H. to Houston to L.A., and now 30 yrs in SE Asia - the past 13 in outskirts of KL - on an MM2H visa. The weather is no worse than Houston / New Orleans in the summer. I’ve just gotten used to being damp most of the daytime, taking 3 showers & changing 2-3 shirts per day. I agree with all your assessments, including JP’s walking comment. The time factor is not an issue for me. A kidney removal here cost USD 5,000, including 6 days in a private room where my wife stayed with me! 2 comments: KL is all you say, but it isnt representative of 90% of Malaysia. The “real” Malaysia is even more fascinating & enjoyable, particularly if you take the trouble to learn some Malay (the easiest language ever). Also, there are numerous volunteering opportunitues to occupy your time, integrate into the culture, and use your skills. I go back once a year (21 hrs to Chi. ) , but have no intention to move back.

[@donaldkinsey5245]

​@@kathyhirsch379 for years, I used to cross the street to get to the Pavilion Mall, which was always crowded, until I discovered an escalator that led you thru an underground shop that connects to the mall. I wondered if any of the other numerous passage ways lead to some place else. I walked from the Pavilion Mall to Suria KLCC, which is at least a mile, all underground.

[@EGO0808]

I am afraid you are mixing up Singapore with KL.

[@donaldkinsey5245]

@EGO0808 No, I'm not. I spent a month in KL. You can walk from the Pavillion Mall to KLCC completely underground. You can also cross over streets by using the subway entrances in Bukit Pitang. I know what I'm talking about.

[@EGO0808]

@ I live at KLCC. No worries. But it’s not an underground between Pavilion and KLCC. As you know it’s a combined ‘overground’ (Pavilion to KL Convention Centre) and from there an underground to Suria KLCC. And that’s it. There’s an extension from Pavilion to Fahrenheit mall, but that’s about it. Singapore though has a complete underground infrastructure with underground malls througout the downtown area, hence my thought of you being confused.

From my pov, many complain about the hot sun and humidity in Malaysia but actually it's a blessing.. For example, why do Malaysia experience these weather conditions it's because most of us consider it is a gift from God that we live in green nature for 24/7/360 so we don't have to worry about snow, autumn etc, no need to worry about what to wear according to the changing of seasons, instead of that we're grateful for the nature of tropical rainforest which is rich in flora and fauna and natural habitats and conservation of wildlife. Our rainforest and humidity are important assets for "regulating" global warming and some ecosystem and biodiversity issues etc as well. Btw, sun and humidity are said to be an anti-aging process agent and that's why you will find most Malaysian netizens skin are looking younger than the age compared to the temperate people's skin complexions..👍😅

Great video! KL is one of my favorite cities and is my main healthcare location outside the US. I go to Prince Court every year for my comprehensive health screening. US physicals are worthless in comparison. The only negative for me is the weather, as you mentioned. But after being there for a while you learn ways to make it more manageable. And it sure beats 2 feet of snow and subfreezing temperatures! I can tell your apartment is in the Robertson Residences, a place I have stayed at many times. The walkability around the Robertson is not very good. If you're closer to the area around Pavilion Mall, it's much more walkable. Grab is a great inexpensive way to get around. Jaya Grocer is my favorite grocery store in KL. As you might guess, KL is one of my possible longer-term home bases when I get to that point in my life. Thanks for your honest assessment!

I appreciate your candid assessment of my country. Depending on your lifestyle and what you're searching for in a place, the majority of the opinions may be quite subjective. However, Malaysia can be the spot for you if you wish to escape the busy lifestyle. Even a capital city like Kuala Lumpur may provide you with many peaceful areas if you know where to reside, even if you would rather live in the centre of the city. Many may not be aware of Malaysia's public healthcare system because most foreigners can afford to attend private hospitals, which are quite hospitable to international patients. The most cost-effective choice for us is our public healthcare, which is almost free for all Malaysians if we can wait in queue, but the quality is always maintained and never compromised. Despite being born and raised in this climate, I also find it sometimes difficult to cope with the humid weather here and would much rather remain in a home with air conditioning. The fact that many of us feel better at ease doing things other than shopping in malls may be the reason we have large shopping malls everywhere. Apart from the occasional flood and landslide, Malaysia is relatively secure from severe calamities like typhoons, earthquakes, and volcanoes. You might get used to it more the longer you stay, I'm sure.

I live in Thailand - now about the HEAT 🔥 It is definitely a personal preference. I am fine with the heat. For me and my old bones (age 68) I absolutely love escaping the damp and chill of the San Francisco Bay Area. I also don’t do snow. It was great as a child in Connecticut but I’m not doing it as an adult. The key, as you observed, is to embrace the evening and nights and stand down during mid-day (go to your condo pool 🏊‍♀️). I would not want to live in this climate as a working person but as a retiree it is just fine. Wear the appropriate clothes. Schedule your activities. Slow down! - walk slowly.

What a lovely video. Thank you for sharing your experience living in KL, Malaysia. Hope that you guys are having a good time and a pleasant stay. Enjoy your exploration.

Thank you! 😃🇲🇾

@AmeliaAndJP Thank you guys too. 😀

JP, looking good. I hope you've healed up.

[@AmeliaAndJP]

All better now! Thanks!

I wish there was a place with a good mix of Malaysia and Albania. I don't want the big city in a high rise building lifestyle with a major rainy season. But otherwise, it is great but anyone from Malaysia should be proud of what they created as well as Albania.

@robinpettit7827 nowhere is perfect I guess. But you know what, there is a place like England, it is up in the Highlands. Cameron highlands

[@sharonbo3280]

Was there last October for the healthcare and found it exceptional. Have been following NC and you both for quite some time and have checked out many places to live. Will be coming back to Penang to check that out again next year. Thank you so much for all your great videos. I too am in search of a home/homes around the globe.

Thanks for the interesting video. I am an 86 year old widower and am not planning to move away from my home of 40 years here in Littleton, Colorado, a suburb of Denver. I find your videos fun and interesting and will keep watching.

[@AmeliaAndJP]

Thanks for watching!

KL is on my short-list of big YES places.

Excellent video, great content, enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing

Helpful video. Great job

Malaysia is a nice country to visit. However me and my asawa feel more at home in the Philippines. It's not perfect, however, it works well for us. We built a home here and for 6 years we enjoy it. Bangkok is a blast to visit. The online sellers have a field day out there and friendly folks.

[@LivinCindysLife]

Great video! KL is not on our list for moving, as we're pretty set on France. However, your video shared SO many positives about the city, we most certainly will want to visit!

[@NorthernMike-1]

Having travelled to both Malaysia and France. I would urge you to visit Malaysia prior to making your decision! Good Luck!

[@paulstonestreet3213]

Great video Amelia. You & JP do a great job explaining what you have found out in your travels.

[@AmeliaAndJP]

Thanks so much!

[@miles422]

After this it is on my list.

[@darrylk808]

We spend a month or two in KL during the winter. Usually, right after the holidays with family. Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, we're off. See ya in a couple of months.😂 So love the people, warm weather, and the food.

[@gaildelfosse9041]

Hi JP & Amelia, We have been here for about 5 days now on our way to Bangkok. We really like KL and have done some exploring. Based upon our experience here we agree with what you say in your video. Our biggest issue is the heat and humidity!!! We're both in our early 70's and I' mot sure we could get used to the heat. We currently live on the coast of Washington and so our weather is much cooler, without snow! Who knows? Take care and keep enjoying your life!

[@dirtydingus5465]

As many places I have traveled and lived, never been to Asia or that region. I have glossed over KL but you well put together video has helped me consider it for a stop over. Good good and content! Great looking dress on Amelia! ☮ Dingus

[@WatchCaliforniaExpat]

Great video. Thank you for the helpful information presented so clearly.

[@AmeliaAndJP]

Glad it was helpful!

[@darleneblair5254]

We just missed you guy as we were in Malaysia and Japan the month of September. My husband and I live in Florida, and our son is stationed in S. Korea with the Army. Since my husband is retired AF, we flew space available to Korea then all of us flew very affordably to KL. I have to say, we preferred Penang to KL. We enjoyed a slightly smaller city with all the amenities of KL. We found it to be a bit more walkable too. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.

*_Welcome to Malaysia and may you enjoy your holiday in Malaysia_* ❤❤❤❤

[@AmeliaAndJP]

Thank you! 😊🇲🇾

[@MimifromChicago]

You are the second couple I've seen recommend KL. I want to visit and maybe relocate.
