    It's weird how fluently he speaks, but still lacks a lot of vocabulary. I think in Malaysia you can fill in the blanks with English most of time and be understood.

    That's why I'm always doubtful when people hype up Singaporeans or Malaysians as "polyglots" or whatever. I remember hearing a pretty good quote from a Singaporean guy when I was there: "Singaporeans speak 5 languages, none of them fluently"

    It's not just that you can be understood, but people are used to saying different things in different languages. Whichever language they speak it's often a mix, they'll throw in words from another when it feels more natural

    @@randomnamegenerator997 I get that, but when it comes to Mandarin, it's pretty useless mixing in other words that only other people in the smaller area know to the point where you don't know the actual words in Mandarin. The result being that you end up speaking like 40% Mandarin which is pretty useless in China, no?

    *TOO FAST?* Control the video's playback speed by speeding up or slowing down the video 5% at a time on desktop computers and laptops OR 25% at a time on smartphone! Access the playback speed controls as follows: *Desktop Computers and Laptops:* open the video, then go to the lower right of the video's screen and click on the settings icon (it looks like a GEAR). On the upper right of the options window that comes up, you will see the link "custom". Click on the "custom" link to control the video's playback speed by speeding up or slowing down the video 5% at a time. *Smartphones:* open the video and go to the upper right of the video's screen. You will see 3 dots. Click on them and you will see the link to open the "playback speed" controls. Click on this link and you will be able to control the video's playback speed by speeding up or slowing down the video 25% at a time. Note that viewing the video on desktop computer/laptops gives you greater control over the playback speed (5% vs 25% on smartphones).

    As a fellow Malaysian, glad that Kairesh didn't try to skirt around what some people may deem as "sensitive" racial issues. Of course there are many nuances to this and this isn't the conversation to deep dive into it, but he did well to cover most grounds. Then again... it's highly unlikely the kinds who find these topics "sensitive" would watch videos like this anyway.

    Hi Eileen ! I was wondering if you were going to make more videos like « a walk », or like « true story » (in which you talk about a personal experience) ? Those are great, I miss them so much 😄 I find them very immersive ! In any case, thanks to you and your friend (who’s filming/editing) for all your videos !

    Absolutely prejudiced and incorrect view of homeless people in KL, it's a very common stereotype amongst Malaysians that homeless people are running scams. The reality is that the cost of living is completely unaffordable for a lot of people, especially migrant workers.
