Solo in Malaysia | Find Out What Happened on This Road Trip 🇲🇾

[@EllisWR]

Without a doubt one of the most underrated channels on KZbin. They don't make em like this anymore.

[@marcoroams]

Thanks man I appreciate that!! ✌🏼

[@NewYorksWorstDrivers]

Appreciate your generosity even if its just helping the local hobo with a few bucks or a local business putting up a sign. You have a good heart bro. Thanks for showing us around where other vloggers won't.

[@marcoroams]

Thanks bro! These are the things I enjoy while travelling ✌🏼

[@andychester]

Marco consistently produces authentic content, a rare quality in today's youtube landscape.

[@marcoroams]

Thank you bro! The next episode is waaaay more authentic … not saying this isn’t, just the new video is more raw and shows a lot of the day to say stuff! Hopefully you vibe it ✌🏼

[@jasonbonnici7481]

Hi mate. Fellow Aussie here. I love this video. I've been to Ipoh many times. My wife is originally from there. I hope you enjoy your time there.

[@marcoroams]

Awesome man! It’s meant to be beautiful when you actually find something to do haha.. the mountains look so nice

[@Meditation4153]

Thank you, Marco Rocks! I hope you are able to keep making videos. If you keep making them, I'll keep watching them and liking them because I am, of course, subscribed!

[@marcoroams]

Thank you! Appreciated 😁✌🏼

[@stevensayers4309]

Well done for helping that guy out with his dinner, hopefully this can go towards your dinner. Even with no debit cards you're still giving your money away, legend. I would like a shop sign update lol

[@marcoroams]

Thanks Steven I appreciate that so much! Ahh it’s okay, i still left myself a little cash for the hotel and dinner till I could active something digitally on my app down the track!

[@KingBrew187]

It’s funny how this was basically a video of consecutive fails yet I wasn’t bored for a single second. The teller is just as important to the story as the content. Entertaining as always bro 👍🏼

[@ethanhayward2424]

Goes to show that people enjoy seeing other people fail.

[@marcoroams]

😂😂😂

[@marcoroams]

Thanks man! That’s the thing… travelling isn’t what they show you in the polished videos … travel is like daily life but harder, but it makes you more resilient and I look back and find this stuff hilarious now

[@ThisnametaKenny]

Hahaha....man this vid is just hilarious in a strange way. Good on you for your originality. Thanks for helping that handicapped guy out. Interestingly enough, I used to work at KFC Cockman about 28 years ago. The original KFC store was actually across the street back then and it was the town proper with a Popeye's chicken on one side and a couple of cinemas now abandoned beside it. That part of Ipoh town is dead now but it sure was kicking back in the day. keep up the good vids bro.

[@marcoroams]

Hahaha thanks bro! 😁 I hope it brought back some nostalgic feelings for you. I’m glad you got my humour haha, it would go over the head of a lot of people. Yeah that part where I was looked quite dead!

[@jessicafattycat6624]

It was a valiant effort to try to communicate with the locals for that insider information. Thank you for the video.

[@marcoroams]

Haha I find it fun! These are the kinda of people I like to meet

[@Klu-9]

You’re so kind and helpful,my Bro,..Thank you and always stay safe!

[@marcoroams]

Thank you!! ✌🏼

[@insandity1]

Again enjoyed the monkeys very much, I had a blast seeing the Green Monkeys of Barbados a few years back. Loved seeing your generosity also, my husband and I love to help out any of the needy on our travels. So sorry about the headache with your car and credit card hopefully Karna meets up with those involved. 😊

[@marcoroams]

Haha love meeting the locals and try to do something nice for people in each town I visit … it’s a shame that there are a lot of fake beggars and syndicate that makes BIG money … but I guy you need to go with your intuition on these things

[@glitchard3685]

This was so entertaining to watch. I like how you can take a bad roll of the dice and not let it ruin your day. We could all use to follow your example. Stay safe out there, brother! Catch you on the next one :)

[@marcoroams]

Thanks so much Man, appreciate it ✌🏼

[@michelled5037]

Wowzers! Looks like a lot of chaos ensues. 😂😊

[@5thdimension625]

Marco, you crack me up. My husband just had his card eaten by the the ATM but luckily we’re at a lovely villa we’re enjoying on Koh Phangan. Hopefully, the main bank will have retrieved his card as it’s his only one left as well. Luckily I have mines and all is well.

[@marcoroams]

😂😂 Yep! It can be very hard when you loose your cards… happen to me many times now while travelling

[@eat_ze_bugs]

Good on you mate for helping the local community. You've just earned a sub.

[@SamanthaMoore5845]

Exact reason I love watching you, Its real! A lot of travel channels or vloggers show the "pretty". They make places look better than they actually are! I know I'm not the only one who wants to see the real side of places. Also, you showed compassion to a stranger. Not many people do that now days. Keep up being you!! Kind caring and real! ❤️

[@marcoroams]

Thanks so much 😍🙏🏽

Classic dashboard on that crashed truck, which is an iconic lori balak, or log lorry. Common sight on Malaysian roads in the past. And it's normally a Mercedes-Benz Kurzhauber.

[@marcoroams]

Yeah it’s an older one! What do you you think happened? Speed or just wet conditions?

[@MM-tj3ko]

@@marcoroams If I have to guess, the lorry was going too fast around the bend. Can't evade the laws of physics with that kind of load. Truck has lived a long life though, hope the driver's OK.

[@marcoroams]

@MM-tj3ko I tried to find some news articles on it and it just seems to be one of many!

26:08 invite a hungry, possibly homeless man into your car, give him money, then proceed to ask said man if he would like to get some food from cockman kfc. Man goes HUH? You can’t make this stuff up. Hilarious content. And so genuine and innocent at the same time as being completely wrong. Love it dude.

[@lydiaoneill3805]

❤ marco, however Malaysia seems to be the dullest place uv been to 😂

[@marcoroams]

lol In a way of all the stuff happening to me?

[@eat_ze_bugs]

33:00 What a stark difference between Australian and Malaysian society. This is the kind of setting you will almost never find yourself in whilst walking on some random street here. There's something communal in Australian society that has been lost throughout the decades.

[@MarksWorldOfAdventure]

You're like my friend. He lost his card 3 times when he was in Indonesia one time

[@marcoroams]

Hahaha yeah I have lost it many times this trip…. I’ve had some sent over so I have 3 now

[@MarksWorldOfAdventure]

@@marcoroams it's cos the machines give you the money first, then the card back, yeah? You take the money and then just walk away 😄

Hey Marco, great video, question, Why not just put a white paper on the inside of the restaurant so the you can see the letters on the sign from the outside?

[@marcoroams]

Thank you! Because you still have the very dark tinted glass so you won’t see the white though it. It should have been printed on an opal translucent white, not on clear

[@sanelaax3]

True, Thanks for the reply, stay safe.@@marcoroams

[@SinisterRCSanDiego]

Another raw and entertaining video Marco! What happened with your bank card? How are you getting money now? Glad you survived the mob of monkeys 😅😅😅

How are you going to replace your card? Do you go back to Australia between trips?

[@marcoroams]

Got some sent over :) I’ve been back to Aussie twice! But only for little visits

[@chooitan]

What you're doing here is like me going to down and out people in any town and city in Oz and asking them hey where should i go to see interesting things in your city. The question you should be asking these people is where you can score some drugs!

South Tx to be exact, I think you'll find the Mexican trade center/Pulga interesting haha, and the San Juan El Valle church. I'll think of other interesting spots,, real close to the Mexico border but its all good here brotha. @@marcoroams

[@aitp]

Loosing cards is a pain. In all my travels I've lost one in a machine in the Philippines and 2 cards and my wallet and some cash to 2 ladyboys that pickpocketed me in Cambodia. I got the cards back (the scam is someone sees it occur who happens to know the ladyboys and who can get your wallet, minus the cash, back for $50). I now always have multiple back ups.

[@ethanhayward2424]

I’d be so anxious and paranoid if I was in a foreign country with no money

[@aitp]

@@ethanhayward2424 it's not a nice feeling. Imagine feeling your pocket where your wallet usually is and it's empty. Your heart falls into your stomach

[@marcoroams]

[@FarhiRosleysembunyi]

Hey Marco, I know you're into random stuff, but it might be a good idea to do some research before heading out. Around 60% of the people you're asking for directions might not be locals; many are workers from Nepal, Bangladesh, or Sri Lanka. While they're unique individuals, language can be a barrier when seeking travel advice. People who can speak English are usually under 40, so look out for them if you need directions. Here are some places you can visit in Ipoh: Concubine Lane Kong Heng Square Ipoh Railway Station Gunung Lang Recreational Park Perak Cave Temple Kek Lok Tong Temple Qing Xin Ling Leisure and Cultural Village Mirror Lake Kellie's Castle (a bit far, but you've got a car) P.S.: Your car signal is working just fine; you flicked the wrong handle, though. You used the left handle for the wiper instead of the right handle for the signal. 😂

[@marcoroams]

Thanks so much man… yeah I think I do need to step up my research game. Do you think the guys sitting near the KFC were Malaysians? Yep!! I realised that when I watched the edit back, my head was all over the place in those days 😵

[@FarhiRosleysembunyi]

@@marcoroams Yeah, I know you enjoy surprises, and your video is aimed to be more than just a typical foreign tourist video, but visiting one or two tourist spots might be a good idea for you to enjoy. The person sitting in the group under the tree might be Nepalese, but the Indian guy might be a local. I wish I could help you with your travels in Malaysia, but honestly, I hate being on camera. 🤪
