Explore this very interesting area of Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia called Chow Kit. It's now also known as Little Indonesia due to the amount of Indonesian people who are working In Kuala Lumpur at the moment. It's actually a very nice part of town, way nicer than I thought at first.

As Malaysian, i dont mind if Indonesia, Myamar, Bangladesh or anywhere come to Malaysia work here, as long use correct visa n respect local👍🏾

[@amz8172]

So you see how Msian welcome foreigners as long as they respect & abide our laws.....they even formed their community in certain areas......msia truly asia..

A few locations in KL are well-known to particular communities. For instance, the Indonesians are in Chow Kit, the Filipinos in Kota Raya Complex, the Bangladeshis and Nepalis in the vicinity of Kota Raya, the Pakistanis largely along Jalan Ipoh, and the Middle Easterners in the Bukit Bintang region. There are also sizable Korean and Japanese populations in Mont Kiara. They might go unnoticed because they resemble like our Chinese.

Chow Kit hosted the largest free concert ever to take place in Malaysia, with an estimated 100,000 people gathering to see Asia's best singer, the late Sudirman.

Get out of Kuala Lumpur friends, try exploring other areas, come on, don't stay in your comfort zone, I want to see other areas in Malaysia😀

Many are looking for job opportunities in Malaysia bro. Especially from Bangladesh, Pakistan, India, Indonesia, Myanmar, Nepal and even some Arab countries facing crisis such as Yemen, Iran and Syria. Because Malaysia entered into an agreement with several labor supply countries, Malaysia is also faced with the problem of illegal immigrants who enter without valid documents but through the rat route by human trafficking syndicates. Surprisingly, even though this syndicate imposes high fees, it does not stop these foreigners from wanting to enter illegally. It is said that there are more than 1 million Chinese nationals who enter Malaysia through legal channels and do not leave until their visa expires. Some stay in luxury condos and conduct illegal online gambling activities.

Malaysians come to chow kit market because we want to buy ingredients to cook and fruits, because the price is very cheap there. As Malays, we dont eat food served at stalls at chow kit market because we feel uneasy with the cleanliness of the place and the way Indonesians cook their food. Local Malays are much cleaner in our way of preparing our food and we dont want to get food poisoning too. One thing, chow kit market is an old market, hence it is not clean as per modern malaysians standards.

Great video, man. You do an excellent job highlighting the cultural diversity in Kuala Lumpur. Indonesians are wonderful people, and the Chow Kit area has always been known as "Little Jakarta" since the 1970s. I have an Indonesian maid at home who has been with us for more than a year. Unfortunately, due to a few bad apples, we employers have to take drastic measures to avoid being cheated by some of these maids. Since we have to pay a large amount upfront to hire the maids, we need to keep their passports and ensure our premises are locked at all times to prevent them from running away. I even keep my maid's room locked at night. This causes unnecessary stress for me. I hope Indonesians teach their children about integrity.

I was there in 2008. It is little Indonesia in Chow Kit Road. I’m surprised it still remain that way in 2024.

[@axelanamwatever7408]

yeah u could say Malaysia kinda like America in Asia we more open toward immigrant just without gun and we definitely dont ban tiktok😂

[@stevens8785]

Massive market that and so inexpensive. Excellent involving other people in the video whilst picking up the occasional new subbie here and there. Top video Chai. 🤩

If you are looking for a slum in KL, I don't think you can find one. Chow kit is more like a market area but still clean and organize. Kampung Baru is an old Malay Village but most of the owners are millionaires and the village is kept as it was in 1970's but clean and organize.

I love this video Chai! As a Malaysian I should subscribe your channel..Both of you were so lucky to meet friendly people in KL..Shout out to the Cendol owner for his hospitality.Good job man 👍

[@jakemir558]

I dont mind Indonesians working here in Malaysia , They are like our brothers and sisters . Most of the malaysian malays originated from Indonesia anyway .

[@baharm65]

Years back...Chow Kit was the central nerve of Kuala Lumpur.

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Thank you for this video. It's quite difficult to determine whether all those foreign workers have valid, legal working permit in Malaysia.

[@ayampelungmojokertoapemman720]

[@alifhashim3752]

There's Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Bangladesh and Nepalese part of Malaysia. Truly Asia.

Bro, the reason why chowkit area look clean right now, becouse last month, DBKL just make raid to find illegal imigrant working in there, so in 2 or 3 month from now that chowkit area will look dirty again
