🇻🇪 Venezuelan here. My family and I lived in Kuala Lumpur for a few years. I even graduated from high school there, and… dear GOD HOW I MISS LIVING THERE 😢 Extremely diverse place (Colombian lady 100% yapping), the Chinese New Year is magical there, Malaysian people made me feel like I was respected and loved there, and I can just keep going as to how much I loved living there man… The only 2 problems is that there’s too many thunderstorms there and Malaysia is just so far away from the New Continent (the Americas). Kuala Lumpur is literally what Caracas could’ve been if Chavez never rose to power, and you have no idea how badly I want to go back and live there even for just 5 years at most. 😢💔

[@benfishermin]

Yea I really enjoyed that interview

[@OvDevilz]

Coincidentally, I just watched a video and read a report about Japan today and this lady said she would prefer to live in Japan because of the people there. The report that I read is about Japan ranked 3rd at the bottom of happiness level based on survey among 30 nations and it is also categorized as the depressed nation considering the suicide rates. I am aware of the happiness level is based on individual perceptions but after reading that report, I am also depressed 😂 ...in the areas that we think Japan supposed to prosper are in fact mostly ranked at the bottom half, rarely seen them ranked better than 5th from the bottom of the list. Then I remembered asking my Japanese friends who live and work in Malaysia about the 'pressure of society' they faced in Japan and how do they deal with it... and their answer was "that's why I am in Malaysia now." Oh, right.. 😅

[@benfishermin]

I do wonder if a big part of that is related to the work culture there. People being overworked and also just pushing through the stress / negative feelings, never really talking about them or acknowledging them too much, or doing anything to fix their unhappiness except for maybe covering it with alcohol. From my perspective the country looks amazing, I'd really like to spend a full month there to see how it feels.

[@jjhenry3338]

@@benfishermin high cost of living and expensive housing. SKorea is worse with added complicated issues difficult to describe on here. Asian tiger economies, the future of their young adults look bleak.

[@OvDevilz]

@benfishermin yes the country looks amazing and the culture is also fascinating but work environment, peer pressure and social factors especially society expectations are some of the cause of anxiety... also don't forget that natural disasters are also one of the contributing factors based on the reports. Nevertheless, I have many Japanese friends and watch many Japanese contents but never crossed my mind that they were among the unhappy nations. It seems very normal and chill for the most part or at least from what I have seen. But then I wonder how the survey got their responses because it is known that Malaysia is no. 1 country for Japanese to live in or retire for 14 consecutive years, and yet from many interviews asking Japanese where they want to go or country the would like to move to, I kid you not, I never heard even 1 of those responders said Malaysia... never! 😂

Cool interviews.....!!! Good job, Ben..... The Senegalese man is very very smart and has a global mind..... I'm impressed with his smart global mind....The Tunisian couple is so wonderful..... They love Malaysia and Malaysians also love Tunisia......The Senegalese and Tunisian couple are Muslims, therefore, they could easily be attracted to Malaysia's vibes....The Europeans- Spanish, Italian and British are also very good and wonderful too..... They are very thoughtful and respectful people.....The Columbian woman actually doesn't really have a long time to know Malaysia.... If she has more time to spend in Malaysia, gradually she will fall in love with Malaysia..... Japan is a great and beautiful country....I lived there many years ago..... It is so different between traveling for a short time in Japan and trying to live there..... Living in Japan could become very difficult and miserable if you don't accustomed to Japanese culture.....If you are only traveling in Japan for a short time, definitely Japan is one of the most wonderful and stunning countries in the world......

[@benfishermin]

Yes I really enjoyed interviewing these people. They were all great with fresh perspectives. I think Japan sounds similar to NYC in that way, where it's amazing to visit or stay for some period of time, even 1-2 months, but if you really settle down there you may end up finding it quite difficult. But I have to try it for myself and I'm very eager to.

11:56 Let's learn from what the Colombian girl is saying. Why does she feel that our country is not diverse? Why did she say that the people are not friendly and helpful? How can we improve this? I'm pretty sure she's not the only one who feels this way, right?

[@yengwoo3179]

She is not the only one who think of this, sadly. Judging by her english, she might meant 'not enough diversity' towards food choices, and not people(bc they were talking about food). I'm Malaysian, and I too most of the time gets bored of the food here especially for dinner. Not much around to find other than malay Thai restaurant or mamak that is less expensive. Even when there are other restaurants available it will be those expensive ones. Man I just want me a nice dish that is below RM10 or RM15 for dinner other than those 2 mentioned(yes I've been searching around, don't come to me and say I've not traveled enough to find it). The quality is so so too. Plus, it's not very surprising for her to think our people are not that friendly/helpful or welcoming. Just look at the comments berating her opinion. That itself speaks volume. It's true she only stayed for 4 days so far(if I'm not mistaken) but within those days even though she hasn't chat with any locals yet, she did have interactions with locals(restaurants, shops, malls, etc). Maybe more than some leave a bad taste in her mouth. Should she try again in a longer period of stay? Maybe, yes. But she still can speak up her mind regardless. Shoo-ing her away doesn't seem 'friendly' or 'nice' at all, doesn't it? "How can we improve this?" Will we ever? Remember we favor white rather than coloured too and we seem to open our hearts more towards those western european people rather than asian that, from Malaysian's eyes, countries that are much lower level than ours.

The Tunisian couple were outgoing and open minded, they seems to be enjoying their trip in Asia and wish them a wonderful holiday in Malaysia.

[@CorianderAubergine]

12:19 I have never heard of this comment about Malaysia. Interesting...

[@3x3HoopsMY]

is possibly because she only contacted with muslims and only went to halal restaurants. if only she discovered theres chinese and indian peoples and food then she will realise the diversity lol. and she probably just stay in the city center and goes to the mall LOL

[@zhariffazhar]

Hi Ben, have you ever considered uploading your videos on tiktok as well? I feel you can really get a lot more exposure there, especially among Malaysians

[@azidinzidin4915]

To me, they no need to live here at all.. but, always be wellcomed here as a tourist & consider this country as a second home to enjoy the diversity of various things is quite enough..👍🏽

so impressed with senegal man speak out the mind

[@williamkee51]

Hey Ben would you be interested in staying close to Kuala Lumpur but not exactly in KL? You can check out many other satellite cities around KL, Petaling Jaya is a really good choice if you stay close to the train station. You can access to KL and also reducing the cost of living too! Check out other places like these I think you would love them!

[@ahmadjohanahmadtajuddin4791]

You become more better Ben. Keep it up.

Good job bro.. Love ur channel..

[@benfishermin]

Thank you

[@faqihlutf]

Frankly I’m not a person who subscribe to any youtube channel except for my favorite sport team Liverpool FC, and guess what your channel Ben has +1 new follower/ subscriber that’s me! Now I have to say I like your channel and I always waiting for upcoming video. Been living in Kuala Lumpur I used to host foreigners, did couchsurfing, and people really like KL. They usually come back, and I am quite surprised to say the Colombian lady says food diverse in Malaysia has not satisfied her enough. I agree you can find Thailand has genuine or have identity in terms of foods but saying Malaysian foods are less diversity, you’re wrong girl. Bet she haven’t explore much. In terms of Japan, yes they are really helpful, lack of English, friendly but as someone who have known Japanese living in Penang, they’re prefer to in Malaysia rather than their home country. Well I hope someday you visit Penang and interview Japanese there. From what I heard Japanese really love Malaysia, and consider Malaysia as #1 or #2 to live out of their home country. Travel in Japan is so much joy and very safe, but working in Japan is a thing you need to avoid at least. Working culture much more different than in Western, let alone in Malaysia where people seem more relax. I have been studying in the UK and working in the US, and I would say the Colombian lady need to explore more of the country, she needs a guide seems she lost. Anyway Ben keep up the good work. I love your channel. You’re gaining +1 new subscriber

[@Junmaisi]

As Malaysian I don't think all of our food are spicy maybe she still don't explore the food here. I think Malaysia also very safe from extreme weather we can have peaceful mind living in Malaysia

[@akaiyukihana]

Except for flash floods... Which is literally just one problem that could've been solved decades ago...

[@musafirmaya9265]

Alhamdulillah...I think is good thing some of them don't want to live in Malaysia if they don't like to follow Islam rules and way of life in Malaysia. We very grateful to be able to stay safe and peacefully among Malaysian.

[@DarthVader-j2i]

Hello small bro. You do realise that Islamic rule, Syariah as it is, only applies to Malays. Foreigners aren't subject to any Islamic rule. The law is from the old British structure. To be able to stay peacefully in Malaysia is something the whole nation needs to be grateful for. Thank god.

[@Nonameforme12355]

Yes. We should instead let the Afghanistan people that follow Islam rules to stay in Malaysia. Like women cannot go out without their husband's permission. And women are banned to speak in public.

[@musafirmaya9265]

Malaysia follow Islamic law that why can live peacefully..if they start to challenge Islamic law and behave like barbarian and komunist for sure Malaysia going down soon

Senegal man for the win in this interview. I'm American and the costs of living (and other things) have become untenable for a comfortable, secure retirement. Malaysia will be added to my list of places to explore in future.

[@prehmabbq]

Im malaysian, whoever want to come and settle here, welcome, as long as dont cause trouble.

[@ahmadfadzlanfaizul7227]

No, they are not welcomed. Just come and visit, not to stay or settle down. You not malaysian are you?

[@SarraLovesTunisia]

As a Tunisian who visited Malaysia in 2006 I must say Malaysia is a beautiful country! Tunisia is also beautiful, with a lot of historical landmarks , Carthaginian, Roman, Arab etc and a beautiful Mediterranean coastline (almost 70% of us live on the Mediterranean) but sadly the economy is bad, the politics is bad, and the infrastructure is also very mediocre and not very modern. Malaysia in comparison has much better infrastructure and more promising economy!

[@李珊-f2r]

You and many KZbinrs making videos about Malaysia keep showing up. It’s KZbin recommending the videos.

African Muslims we are friendly

[@yue5742]

We have foods from the multi-cultured 3 main ethnicity here which is already a lot to choose from These days literally at every corner you'll find authentic and fusion Japanese, Korean, China, Thai and middle eastern restaurants/shops/supermarket all around. If you feel like having a taste of home we do have tons of western F&B chains everywhere except maybe rural towns Not really sure which part of remote Malaysia you've been visiting to justify saying the food is not diverse. Malaysia have lots of shortcoming but lack of food diversity is not one of it even when comparing to Japan

[@ViolentCabbage-ym7ko]

The Colombian lady wants diversity but picks Japan which consist of mainly Japanese people. 😂 Whatever floats your boat. Lol
