You've sold it to me. 5 minutes in and I've decided I will go to Malaysia. Now I gotta convince my husband...😅

Wonderful analysis from a fellow Brit and Muslim myself. I agree that Malaysia is a great starting part to go to other SE Asia countries. I have already been to Malaysia 6 times, Thailand 4 times, Singapore 3 times, Indonesia 3 times, Philippines twice, Brunei and Vietnam once each, and I have to say that Malaysia is definitely my favourite SE Asia country even though I absolutely loved Thailand and Indonesia. And planning for my 7th visit to Malaysia and 4th visit to Indonesia this summer. I absolutely loved Langkawi more than Bali and Phuket. Yes I do prefer Krabi much more than Phuket and Lombok over Bali but Langkawi is truly a stunning island. Not much of a fan of Penang. I have been to Penang, Langkawi, Kuala Terengganu, Johor Bahru, Melaka, Genting Highlands, Putrajaya, Tioman Islands, Perhentian Islands, Redang Island, Kapas Island, parts of Sabah and Sarawak in Borneo Malaysia, and KL. There is one thing I did do in Langkawi was a day trip to Koh Lipe in Thailand which was good because it is pretty close by even though I went to Koh Lipe again for 3 nights after staying in Ao Nang (Krabi) and Phi Phi Don Island. In terms of cities in SE Asia, KL is my favourite but Bangkok, Jakarta and Singapore are right up there but also liked Ho Chi Minh City and Manila too. Modern Jakarta is something else especially around Bundaran Hl and SCBD district but overall KL is the best city

Thanks Will.. One thing about Malaysia is it's unique and genuine.. the people don't have to sugar coated to influence you for instance with the slogan of "land of smiles" etc but they're land of scams or whatever..😅 Every each of Malaysian people are helpful, humble and friendly.. especially the Malays and that's why long ago they can accept others to live in their country peacefully and becoming great diversity and so a melting pot of Asian and Western foods, cuisines and cultures.. hence Malaysia is warm, charming and truly Asia 🇲🇾✌️😊

​@@travelwithwill1I highly recommend that u pls try live in southeast(live in & not just visiting only), then u'll discover how self absorbed Malaysians are😂😂😂.They're so small minded & insecure ppl that they ALWAYS talk bad about the surrounding countries. They behaved this way is becos they have been so jealous of the successful nearby countries. Its a fact that they arent as popular as thailand or indonesia for tourist destination, so their name often been left out😂😂 They esp hate singapore cos they been behind sg from the day singapore gained its independence in 1965. If u are observant u will notice they always luv going to every sg post then start claiming how boring or how small sg is. Worst thing is they always luv to claim that singapore stole this or that from them & "thats how" singapore became successful🤣🤣 They just couldnt stand the fact that S'pore been highly developed & more successful than them❤❤ Singapore alrdy became developed country in early 90s but Malaysia is still in developing status even after after almost 60yrs later!!😅😊 In actual fact they never take a HARD look at themselves why they always fallen behind singapore. They are too prideful ppl that they simply won't even think of learning from singapore but only know how to mock or put Singapore down😭😭

Malaysia population 34,308,525. Base on race demographics- 70.1 % of the Malaysian population were classified as Bumiputera,( Malay 17.6 million,57.9% - 12.2% indigenous peoples, including Orang Asli, Dayak, Anak Negeri) Only 22.6 % ethnic Chinese, and 6.6 % ethnic Indians. Malaysia is Muslim Country but other ethnic can practice their religion openly without prejudice. Thanks for visiting Malaysia.

Hello Will, a Malaysian living in Lausanne here 👋. Thank you for introducing my country to your followers. Malaysia also has a very affordable healthcare system where 90% of the doctors speak perfect English, hence less anxiety if you fall ill. Many tourists end up not claiming from their health insurance for the procedures they did in Malaysia because it was so affordable. Hope you had a good time in Malaysia 😊.

Hello, it’s exactly how I felt. I loved it there

I've been to Langkawi and I couldn't agree more, it's beautiful! So many fun things to do and lovely beaches.

My experience with the formalities of going to Malaysia are different from what you describe in this video. For one thing, the vast majority of people will arrive through the airports, and you won't be greeted by soldiers standing around you with automatic weapons. That photo you included seems to portray Malaysia as a dangerous country to enter. But the international airports look like any airport anywhere in the world, and you simply go through immigration and customs as you would anywhere else. It's also very simple to purchase a SIM card at the airport when you arrive. Crossing through a land border would be different, but if you're flying into Malaysia, you don't need to get an E-SIM in advance. Several of the big SIM card providers have convenient counters right at the airport as you arrive. You can get a local tourist SIM in just a couple of minutes. Also, I'm not aware of any visa requirement as you describe it. Citizens of most countries around the world do not require a visa to visit Malaysia. Immigration at the border crossings issue a 90-day Social Visit Pass and stamps this into your passport. I think what you are talking about is the new requirement for all visitors to fill out an online Arrival Card. This online form is the same as the old paper arrival card. You simply fill out your name and passport number, flight details and the address of your hotel. This has to be done within 3 days of your arrival in the country. However, this is not a visa. I checked a couple of websites, and it appears that only nationals of the countries in the following list require a visa for Malaysia. Everyone else receives 90 days at the airport. So, there's no need to get a visa in advance. COUNTRIES THAT REQUIRE A VISA: Angola Bangladesh Bhutan Burkina Faso Burundi Cameroon Central African Republic China Colombia Comoros Democratic Republic of the Congo Republic of the Congo Ivory Coast Djibouti Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Ethiopia Ghana Guinea-Bissau Hong Kong India Liberia Mali Mozambique Myanmar Nepal Niger Nigeria Pakistan Rwanda Serbia Montenegro Sri Lanka United Nations (Laissez Passer) Western Sahara

WILL you always stunning 😍 been to Malaysia, Thailand, Hong-Kong, China 30 years ago and found Malaysia was the best country (6 weeks tour). Regards

There's no need to compare between the capitals of SEA countries. Different individuals have different needs and wants. If you want nightlife and adult entertainment, you already know where you're heading. If you want a more modern and chilled environment, less polluted air quality and better organisation, and better affordability, you already know which country you should be heading to. It's a no-brainer! Lol😂😂

Come to Malaysia if you only have a short time to spend in Asia, as Malaysia is a truly Asia. Certain parts of Malaysia bear striking similarities to China in terms of architecture, cuisine, and customs. You might feel as though you are in the India in certain places and Middle East in others. Of course, there are sections of it that can make you think you're in Thailand or Indonesia. Thus, you could experience Malaysia as a miniature version of Asia when you travel there.

Hello, I completely agree!

M surprised you are spot on in practically all the aspects. Not easy to do that, really. I m Msian who had lived abroad too long. And the food experience you mentioned is a new discovery for me only in the last two years (post Covid)! I can say lots more about food. But i truly believe Msia probably has the best Indian food (in the world?) and the food culture reflect Msia as Truly Asia.

Maybe you can stay in Malaysia, not only Malay, Chinese and Indian, there's also Japanese and European locals so you may feel like a hometown there instead

Yes, pl compare KL, Bangkok & Jakarta. Good on U.
