This is what the viewers want to see, for you to interact with the locals, having a chat, eating some local food together. We also love how you try and speak the local language. We can see you made a lot of effort with the locals. Well done!

[@bostamanmuhammad7332]

The best part when u travelling across Malaysia mostly everybody can speak simple English, enough for communicate.

[@intanizyani9987]

Ini baru pelancong paham dan peramah datang tempat orang.... ramai orang suka. Yang best kelakar.... ini baru matsaleh

[@haniida1827]

Majority Malaysian kampong people can speak english too even broken english... .woww i can see a big fish

[@closetoyourheart]

Cara dia sebut MUAR tu sgt spot on ! I love the rolling R.. ❤

[@snowmoon8050]

This is what we called adventure! Safe journey mat salleh...😊

[@DodoExplorers]

Thank you dear

[@roslihamid3168]

When u back to your place,dont forget abous us Malaysian,put us in your heart

[@GobiSubramaniam]

In Malaysia, only thing to watch out for is the weather. It can be very hot (ranging anywhere between 30 degrees celsius to 32 degree celsius) and it could drop within the hour to a thunder storm. Most of the people are friendly because Malaysia (since independance in 1957) had been through a rough time which forced its people (Malays, Chinese and Indians among others) to tolerate and help each other. So you can say Malaysians adopted Live and Let Live attitude and easy going with everyone.

[@ridiculousred9425]

this one foreigner sometimes are more friendly than our locals 👍👍🤔🤔🤭🤭 kalo aku yg ada kat situ...aku yg jd confused... 😵‍💫aku ke dia yg local nih??? lol 🤔😵‍💫😅🤣

[@TeleeFONE]

I really miss your Malaysian vlogs, you are always so respectful and kind. And you explore local places that looks fun and the foods looks good.

[@ShahHullon]

Mike! Great Job! Keep Going kawan ku! Here is something for your journey!!!

[@DodoExplorers]

Thank you Shah!

[@kopxpert]

Yo what's up crazy mat salleh 😂. Save travels my friend. Maybe next youtube project, cycle to the north of Malaysia, maybe even enter Thailand!!! Edit: This is nice... talking to random locals and stuff, this is great content!!!

[@asharisidon3325]

Tom Yam Kelapa Muda is one of favourite spot in my kampung. Its Kampung Parit Besar Jalan Kluang. Maybe its the food hub of Batu Pahat with its choices of good food. Returned home fourteen years ago, we haven’t stop the continuous exploration of delicacy of Parit Besar and Batu Pahat. Come over to Johor, you won’t regret it

[@ex_TeamSecret]

this is the real michael...seeing the previous video he looked clumsy making a video without any activity...but here you are very comfortable

[@hippoeleben]

one of the best series. When arrrived batu pahat try nasi briyani mat shah and also mee racun batu pahat

[@nutzhazel]

And also Asam Pedas Mak Limah, being the KFC

[@roslihamid3168]

Nt dia takut nk mkn,poisoned mee 😂😂

[@chaw294]

Crazy Mat Salleh but a hilarious Mike, exploring M'sia on a bike 😅 Well, it's indeed a wonderful exploration.... loved to see you interacting with the locals, eating and enjoying local food along the journey. The only obstacle is the rain. Thanks for sharing your bike journey, Mike.

[@kopxpert]

God damn.... the tomyam in coconut looks really good!!!!!

[@AnasSuhaimi]

Don't worry about the trucks in narrow kampung road. Everyone knows it's narrow, and in villages everyone is related to everyone, so they don't just honk. If they have to wait 10 minutes before there's safe passage to take over, they will wait for 10 minutes. Both my parents come from the area between Muar and Batu Pahat, so trust me.

[@JenutTN]

Hi Mike, you just passed by my wife's hometown at 16:22. My regards to Gigi. From the guy who fetched you from LRT Gombak to Janda Baik last year

[@KoriKazui]

I can't with the two makciks scaring each other at 5:35 🤣🤣🤣 But overall amazing video! So glad to see that you enjoyed cycling around my country despite the weather!

[@ar.saifulghani3158]

I pray for your safe journey. Please watch out for reckless drivers.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

You ought to travel safely. Wonderful exploration from your road trip.

[@tazzess]

Nice to see a happy "mat salleh"

[@AnasSuhaimi]

"Once! Twice! Thrice! Four times raining!"

[@DodoExplorers]

You're an inspiration

[@hplagt6880]

I think when you pair laksa and char kueh tiaw together...kueh tiaw taste will definitely lose out because laksa is super rich in taste. You should get ready a poncho in case of the rain. I really enjoyed your solo road trip video this time. Hope you can do more next time in other places. Who knows you stumble upon some hidden gems.

[@eddiemorra3099]

Always be careful brother... And hope you always happy and enjoy Malaysian Food 😊

[@enizahafiz2039]

11:23 it's not rehabilitation, it's the monthly drainage and roadworks maintenence by the Roadworks Department (JKR) 😅 The reason is to ensure the water flow easily and no clogging especially during rainy season because some low areas are prone to flood.

[@shuib]

Yet another awesome, heart-warming (despite the rain!) video!!!!

[@Sword4556]

5:26 from romania..some local can speak english for basic communication.. goreng pisang with sambal kicap is nice taste.

[@nutzhazel]

Batu Pahat Try Beriyani Md Shah at Benteng, beside the river. Try Asam Pedas Mak Limah (behind KFC). Try Rengit Coffee at main street Jalan Rahmat Try Mee Racun at Taman Sri Jaya

[@11hanim]

[@haniida1827]

[@chereleecherelee9453]

All are good in Malaysia but be carefull with the road. Many bad drivers

[@adliahmad3716]

You must add the rice! hahaah

[@harry77998]

Singapore , Malacca and Johore are connected to each other . You can see a statue of Sang Nila Utama (1299-1347) in singapore , he is the first King of Singapore , his great-grandson estabalish Malacca sultanates ! After malacca sultanates falls in 1511 , their decendent estabalish Johor sultanates in 1528 - still present this days (become King of Malaysia in 2024) ..
