Malaysia people very friendly ❤❤...

[@elsiechan3245]

Hi Chris, to add: That lady who sold you water - she said she came from SARAWAK. Sarawak fyi is a state of Malaysia but on Borneo Island. The other state is SABAH. I heard you say you plan to visit the Borneo states. That's where I am too. Welcome to Sarawak in the future & might look you up then.

[@leyanazulee4897]

And the lady are not being honest to tourist like Chris 🙄 The water only cost for RM1.00 or 1.50 per bottle but she charged Chris about RM3.50 and never give him the balance 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ although the amount aren't too big but the honesty portraits our country... shame 😓

[@ardentblue7493]

Thanks for the great video Chris! Sad to see you leaving to Sri Lanka😭. We Malaysians really enjoy your videos. I almost cried when you gave the tips to the man selling sugar cane and coconut drink.

[@anitayusof4903]

Watermelon = tembikai Guava = Jambu Dragon fruit = buah naga (Just to name a few fruits in Bahasa😊) The largest fruits farm is in Rawang, Selangor (northwest of KL). Some of it from cameron highland, Pahang (east coast Malaysia). U shld visit these places when u come back again.😊 Be safe wherever u are.

[@jacksonlow5154]

And also in the video u’ve mistaken lokal for watermelon, lokal actually means local. The vendors were trying to tell u the watermelon is produced here in malaysia

Hi Chris, great video mate 👍 take care.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thanks a lot bro!

[@Asuma492]

22:08 The dude that comes out of the store and starts walking behind you looked shady Chris. The way his eyes locked on your camera make me doubt his intentions. He quickly changes his demeanor and decides to abort mission as soon as you start talking to the vendor. Just be careful out there my friend I know you know what's up. Im from Los Angeles too and I'm Chapin as well. 🇬🇹

[@christopherpekel6096]

He really wasn't doing anything besides walking. You've never been to Malaysia, it's super safe. Nothing like the US or the Americas in general. He was probably Indian-Malaysian and they sometimes look like that, they're harmless though

[@timbridges8593]

Hi Chris, great video. I hope Gladys is doing well. Thanks for sharing. This is one place I won’t go to. I can’t handle heat and humidity. 🙁 The respect you give each person is awesome. Good to see. And no fn dramatic crap. Your energy is so much better than a lot of people I watch. Keep it up Chris, look forward to the next one. As always have a good one e!😁🇨🇦

[@aishx]

The sellers use opium seeds (kaskas) in their cooking to give it a 'kick'. The use of the word 'ganja' here implies that people are addicted to the food. 2 years back police raided a place I've been to many times (not in KL) because they felt 'weird' & sleepy after they had lunch. They found that the staff had some cooking 'herbs' but nothing illegal 😂

Sepang is a place outside of KL. Where there is a Sepang International Circuit for F1 racing. Jambu is guava

[@ld-n1648]

10:12 He was smoking, that’s why he quickly threw it to the ground once you filmed him. It’s against the law to smoke in public places in Malaysia, he would’ve been fined rm10k (more than usd2k) 😅 I guess that’s why he was reluctant to chit chat after that 😆

[@autumnmaccoy]

Honestly I think he was just shy to converse in English

[@mahadhirmohamad7187]

The old woman where you buy mineral water at the beginning of the video says she is from Sarawak. Sarawak borders Sabah and Brunei, part of Borneo. Water melon in Malay wee call it Tembikai. Sepang is the district located in the southern part of the State of Selangor. Nasi Ganja was first introduced in Ipoh, Perak. Basically it is Nasi Kandar as found in Muslim Indian restaurants. Named Nasi Ganja, supposedly you will be addicted to eating more. It is a title deliberately created by the seller because most people know what cannabis is but in Malaysia many people do not know its advantages in medicine. Ganja has been mentioned in the ancient Malay historical text "Sulalatus Salatin, which tells the life of the Sultan, magnates and people of Malacca which is believed to have been written in the 15th century. Among the things written, "You already know that ganja is intoxicating, why do you eat it too,"

[@zulmahatzul9737]

D reason y some plp seems nice but din want to response to u coz they cnt speak english n i think mostly d plp selling in d market r mostly nt malaysians i think.

[@revivaratharaju7792]

Sabah and sarawak 2 states of malaysia its near by brunei

[@ariffyusoff1736]

The reason they call 'nasi ganja' is to indicate that their rice is very deliceous and can be very addictive. The term I think originate in Ipoh, a city about 3 hrs driving north of KL.

[@nuarootham1261]

If you love underwater and beautiful sceneries, try Pulau Redang or Tioman Island in the East Coast, Malaysia.

[@nutzhazel]

In towns near the sea and river estuaries, you can actually see the fishermen returning from the sea super early in the morning and loading all the fishes and seafoods to be distributed to the wet markets in their states. My town in Johor has one such market as we're very closed to the sea, so people come as early as 4am to get the freshest of fishes and seafoods to cook for the breakfast and lunches. When I used to live in Kuantan, there used to be small shops opens at 12am selling cheap meals especially Nasi Dagang specifically for the fishermen that returning to the shores.

Most people who work in the wet market are not educated Chris. Their English language proficiency are kinda limited. So if you can sense that they dont want to talk to you, its because their English is really bad and they dont know how to respond to you.
