Way to go Jimmy and Pauline. I have to concur with you. Malaysia is SEA-lite for westerners, affordable modern metropolis for other Asians without the hefty price tag and cultural melting pot for the forward thinking digital nomads. It really has so much to offer. I just love the cooled down evenings after the monsoon rain where the streets and commercial hub come back to life. Amazing!!!

[@themothfamily]

It really is something special

[@NetMaestro2009]

I worry that a day would come where Malaysia becomes too touristy and that has a negative impact on locals in terms of cost of living, culture, security etc. Call me selfish but I'd like to keep this amazing county as a *relatively* low profile destination. For example, very open borders means easy access to some categories of very unwelcome people who abuse the privilege as evidenced by recent raids on undocumented immigrants.

[@decTac]

Yes, sadly via River Golok everyday PATI enter Kelantan and nobody cares..

[@bartocastro3672]

If you are English speaking Westerner want to start to explore South East Asia, Singapore or Malaysia are great starting point. Both have advantages, but overall, I believe Malaysia will better choice.

[@themothfamily]

We think so too!

[@UncleBin1269]

Thank you for helping us sharing Malaysia to the world ... We Malaysians really appreciate it .... Terima kasih ...

[@themothfamily]

It's my pleasure. We really do love Malaysia

[@jaykassim3474]

Indeed, Malaysia is the best place for family and raising kids❤😊🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾

[@themothfamily]

We agree!

[@ajun78]

The best information about MALAYSIA ❤❤❤MALAYSIA TRULY ASIA ❤❤❤AIR ASIA EVERYONE CAN FLY❤❤❤👍👍

[@themothfamily]

Yep!!

[@JG-ex9kx]

Malaysia is Truly Asia👍🏻

[@themothfamily]

we totally agree

[@amanshahosman9082]

Malaysia misses you.

[@themothfamily]

Cant wait to get back!

[@syafiqahmad987]

Been to Gold Coast, Perth and Melbourne. All i wanted after landed back in Malaysia is food. No shops open after 5 besides than convenience store 😂 great one mate ❤

[@themothfamily]

I know right

[@NorAzahMoin]

I stayed in Perth for 2 yrs. Found it extremely boring. It's beautiful but shops close at 5. Only close later 7pm on Thursday night , Fri and weekends at 9 and 10 pm respectively. Very quiet after 5. Not exuberant like KL. After 2 yrs, we headed home to Malaysia. We felt so alive back home. Also food prices in Australia was not cheap then and more expensive now

[@fatimahjohari4890]

I agreed as Malaysians live overseas, I really miss my country and it is affordable to live. I can't wait to fly back to Malaysia 😊

[@Glajdar]

Having studied in the UK ( similar to Aus) through the gruelling winters for 8 years, at 3 pm most shops are closed and nothing happens in the towns / cities and we are forced to spend our evenings and nights at home...Msia is heaven sent

[@acerazak4087]

Thank you for all positive and kind words 🙏 do visit Malaysia 🇲🇾 again. Next month is the month of Ramadhan the best time to explore Malay food because of the Bazaar Ramadhan 👌 Ayam Golek (smoked/roasted chicken), Ayam percik (roasted chicken with coconut milk gravy), ayam madu(honey chicken) and so many chicken dish for you to try😋

[@macdmacd7896]

expats with kids should watch this channel. this is good TV.

[@epotnwarlock]

can't wait until the new mm2h is finalized, I can't wait to go!

[@themothfamily]

how good are the changes

[@epotnwarlock]

Not verified so take it with a grain of salt, but new king from Johor has supposedly been more critical of the changes to mm2h and is more business friendly toward foreign investments, from what ive seen the most affordable version of new mm2h is the silver option 5 year family visa requiring not a monthly income but roughly $100k investment similar to the previous mm2h where the money is held but can be used after a year to buy property or pay for healthcare

[@amanshahosman9082]

Hmm... I think its already finalised last December. It comes in 3 categories . Silver, Gold and Platinum packages. Do check it out.

[@epotnwarlock]

Cool! @@amanshahosman9082

[@amrimd73]

Thanks for promoting Malaysia.

[@themothfamily]

Our pleasure!

[@ryanphilip5983]

For me Malaysia is the perfect starting place, the perfect mid point and the perfect place to end your journey

[@hateyou2097]

Thank you for you hard work ...for promote malaysia

[@GL-iw5xl]

You gave a lot of good points and summe fup wonderfully. Thanks Great job

[@themothfamily]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nurhidayahabdullah1548]

Please visit Sarawak and you will be amaze .Visit orang utan sanctuary,the jungle and the colonial sites.

[@themothfamily]

We love Sarawak!!!

[@chiangea3495]

Nice and informative vlog !❤ Malaysia is boring for single dude that looking for exciting night life and entertainment. For a family person, Kuala Lumpur has a low crime rate, better air quality,lower cost of living, with the same amount of rent you will a bigger space in KL and more trees than Bangkok !

[@Jack-bd4ep]

Malaysia is great.. I agree.😂😂😂I've been living in Sabah since birth, and it is a nice,I love my country.Love your families as well.❤❤❤

[@willl9791]

Yes, Malaysia is underrated. Not only is it great for holidays but even long stays as well. Wish I had the time to go more often. Thanks for your videos showing and reminding me about Malaysia.👍🏼😎

[@AlphaTangoAlpha]

we hope to welcome you back again in the future

[@user-ow3gv1fp7w]

Thank you guys, watching you from east Malaysia ❤

[@themothfamily]

we are going to head to East Malaysia this year, so excited for it

[@nickloong]

Making Malaysia a starting point for your SEA holiday will be setting the standards pretty high in terms of expectations for the rest of your SEA holiday. I'll advise you to make Malaysia your final stop and make it a longer stay to rest and recover from your previous hectic SEA holiday schedule. You'll appreciate the relaxing nature and yet modern holiday experience in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Just my 2 cents.😊✌️

[@matjebonklumen147]

We are flattered!

[@themothfamily]

TERIMA KASIH 🙏🏻 besides Melaka (Malacca) should be in wishlist. All huge ships from west to east will pass Straits of Malacca.

[@themothfamily]

We have heard that, going to add to list

[@decTac]

Hey mate thanks for the kind words.. Hope you and your family will come back again here in 🇲🇾, many things happen and to explore.. Now is Visit Malacca Year 2024, next week will be Chinese Lunar New Year, then Ramadhan, next Hari Raya Eid Fitri and on and on never ending and never stop..😂 Another gigantic skyscrapers to visit and view the TRX Exchange Tower and the second tallest tower in the world the Merdeka 118.. check it out !! 👍🇲🇾✌️

[@andrewwolf3284]

Malaysia is multiracial race in here and we was colonising once by British long time ago, also Malaysia similar with America

[@abcdefg7484]

Do you miss Malaysia? Comeback again to visit 😊

[@penukulbesi4006]

Our country is not flawless as a whole right now, but we are taking steps in that direction, and we expect it to be realized in the near future if the economy continues to improve and politics remains stable.

[@mckevintoni8448]

Tks for the honest review & its very informative to others especially potential tourists who hav not been to Malaysia. Do come back to visit us & explore more. Stay safe & God bless❤

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Some people can use apps on phones to translate. Buying groceries can be an issue in other countries in South east asia as ingredients are not in english

[@ProntoDeMayor]

KL, Penang, KK, Malacca / Melaka and Kuching, among the best city i've been.

[@themothfamily]

We Agree!

[@AbAbib]

​@themothfamily JIMMY AND PAULINE LET ME FIRST SAY YOU GUYZ ARE AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL FAMILY ❤ AND EVERYTHING YOU SAID IS 💯 % TRUE AND WE AGREE 💯💯💯💯💯 THANK YOU GUYS 👍

When are you guys coming back to Malaysia?

[@ThisnametaKenny]

Southeast asia on training wheels.....spot on. Hahaha.

[@fiqriq7273]

For Malaysians, speaking english is easy. U only need CONFIDENT . and belasah je la. Haha btw thank you very much. Stay safe stay healthy.

[@KatK36]

visit my country Philippines🎉

[@joyyyy777]

Certainly, I agree that Malaysia is a wonderful country to do a lot of stuff. It has diverse cuisine, cultures and spots. It's ashamed that this beautiful attractive country is underrated.

[@Northstar2000]

You look malaysian yourself

[@themothfamily]

I get that alot haha

[@byteme9718]

Visa costs? Thought not!

[@flswrsss]

Assalamualaikum, hey just wanna say that we need to cover our chest, hair, neck and ear with the hijab and also our wrist and feet also need to be covered too as a Muslim girl 😸🌷 AND if u can, make ur shirt longer and avoid wearing outfit that can shape your body 💗/Assalamualaikum, hey just nk ckp kita kena cover lengan and kaki tauu andd also dada, telinga and leher pun kena cover dengan tudung 😸🌷and kalau boleh labuhkan sikit baju tau and elakkan baju yang ketat tauu💗

[@kasbms]

Agree with you. Malaysia is family oriented place to go ❤ to explain in details are…just google 😊

[@mohdzaid4633]

Thx🫡🫡🫡🇲🇾🇲🇾

[@norabd7447]

MALAYSIAN GOVERNMENT ALWAYS PROMOTING MALAYSIA AS A FAMILY DESTINATION

[@booteechee6560]

M’sia have much more interesting stuff.. like quite a number of beautiful island resorts… water is crystal clear…. Advance Medical system …. reasonable price and very good service… generally people are very friendly…

[@CHEA1111]

Do you know that the aborigines of US are Malays? Yes. Malays first came to North America in year 800.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Just visit the tax free islands for beers or alcohol

[@keangwooichoo6138]

Malaysia may not have volcanoes like indonesia, or desert and snow peak mountains like in peru. But the rest we hv it. Wonderful islands, great cities, food, culture, mountains without snow, forest some of the oldest in the world, marine life is abundant, record breaking caves, wildlife.

[@massimomassimo5464]

Those who say Malaysia is boring must be the ones who frequent the gay bars and massage parlours after praying to their god in the bars , the alcohol.

[@keangwooichoo6138]

The traffic team at Cameron highlands / simpang pulai are being investigated now. Caught for bribery on youtube by UK retirees (treat the globe channel). Very likely same team that solicit money from you. Moral of the story, do not hide their face. Just show it.

[@JG-ex9kx]

Those Policemen are bad apples in the police force. I saw news that these policemen now got suspended from their job.

[@xx88hell]

Thank you for loving Malaysia. ❤

[@razifR_]

there are twist…not all Malaysia is suitable…😂😂😂 you try live in Klang…Malaysia’s Colombia…the crime rate there very scary…

[@MayMay-May]

I live in Klang for more than 10 years now. Do u mind telling me what is so scarry for living here?

[@MayMay-May]

apa kamu takut kat klang？

[@razifR_]

@@MayMay-May you search youtube what police say la…Klang is one of the highest crime rate in Klang Valley…Head police from Bukit Aman himself mentioned Klang is Malaysia’s Colombia…you search search

[@rickywong2030]

High crime rate in klang due to house breaking.Personal safety is okay.

[@razifR_]

@@rickywong2030 homicide also no joke in Klang oooo…

[@HermitSkermit]

Great video, Jimmy and Pauline. You've captured the one attraction the majority of travelling KZbinrs miss - that Malaysia is 𝙛𝙖𝙢𝙞𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙡𝙮. True, KL doesn't have the glitzy allure of Bangkok, for instance. But that kind of showy, ostentatious appeal is for hot-blooded testosterone-laden jocks. So for younger travellers looking for R-rated excitement, Malaysia will certainly lose out. For a touring family, however, Malaysia certainly ticks all the boxes as a family-friendly destination. Once again, great video, and a helpful one as well.

[@JebatBentanDerhaka]
