$22 Coconut In Langkawi Island, Malaysia 🇲🇾

Langkawi Island exploration is continuing. One of the things I love about here is the small roadside vendors where you can get your snacks and food. And of course meet some sweet, caring and hospitable local people.

Besides the coconut tree, the lady also said there was a "manggis" or mangosteen tree, not a mango. you must try the mangosteen, the fruit is very soft and sweet, the color of the fruit flesh is white.

She's trying to ask you what you want to eat, and she's single and working to take care of herself. This is how many villagers run their home based businesses. Its good to learn about how the locals live though. Your good tip just made her day brother!

Go to the tourist centre at each state in malaysia. They may guide you with more cultural activities , events and places to visit. I saw a travellogger did that. Eventhough i am a malaysian, there were many things and places i just discovered by watching the video. Hoping i would be able to visit in the near future.

I have seen some sellers who have generous to KZbinrs, I have never seen any KZbinrs who have been generous to a seller, except you. Don't forget an easy sunnah to say Bismillah before eating or drinking.

Hi ..why do you put the price of coconut on your KZbin at rm22. The average price is usually RM 5 for a whole coconut and if you buy by the cup it shld cost way less. The green coconut are mainly Pandan coconut that are grown abundance here or there are many that are imported from Southern Thailand. Have fun!

Yet again, misleading title. Corporate mentalities 👌👍

[@rahimah_abdulkadir]

This kind lady's name is Roziah. The henna on her fingers is common among Malay ladies for everyday use and not only used by Malay brides on their wedding day. She's very friendly and telling you some of the food she can cook. "Goreng" is fried. I'm sure she feels happy that you come to her stall. I bet she didn't realise you were filming her on You tube hahaha. Your videos are not only interesting but funny as well. You are such an inquisitive person. Keep up the good work Davud and thanks for sharing, as always. All the best from KL 🤗

[@mathewsgeorge8250]

Davud, the title is misleading, as my first impression was that you paid too much for the coconut. Gave me the first impression that something was not right here. However after watching the video, i had to say i was corrected pleasantly. The lady was showing plain hospitality Malay style, and making an effort to communicate with you in Malay, and very positive despite not understanding English. She was probably affected by flood ( banjir) recently. Your kind gesture of giving her the RM100, and not expecting change, was so gratefully received by her, while she also needed assurance, that the money you gave her was earned honestly ( halal, clean) . Hopefully your video will help her little business with few more customers, without overwhelming her🙂

[@kleew5840]

Vocabulary in video: Goreng = fried ( mee goreng = fried mee) Suami = husband (tak ada suami = no husband) (she was saying she stays alone, no husband) Banjir = Flood (she was pointing out flood water came into her store) Terimakasih Banyak banyak = thanks a lot

[@aishi9068]

Lovely lady. Hope to see another video soon. It's nice to see you are giving back to the locals, not just making videos for yourself.

When she say halal, she doesn't mean that the money source is halal, she just asking if he really giving it with full heart... It's like whether he is hallaling(allowing her to own it with full heart) the money to her?
