Jalan Ampang Muslim Cemetary at 4:36 was founded in 1819. Malaysian legendary artist (singer and actress) Salmah Ismail (Saloma) was buried there as was her legendary husband P.Ramlee (actor, director, singer, composer). The bridge is named after her.

Had to comment after watching your video : the Uniqlo here is made in ‘Asian’ size compared to the Europe/ USA stores. I tend to buy my clothes from the London stores where I currently reside, and when I came back home to Malaysia last week, I went to Uniqlo and bought plenty of clothes, the fit were all smaller despite being the same size / of the exact same design of clothes in M size. I had to go one up to size L and the store manager said that Uniqlo Asia makes clothes in smaller sizes compared to the West (despite labeling them the same S/M/L)!!Not sure if I explained it well there but hope you got the message 😅

@iamjohnsaboe

Thanks, actually I wasn’t comparing NA to Asia because you are correct sizing here is smaller. I must assume, my mistake, that because of the way I sound that people think I’m comparing one continent to another but actually I’ve been living in Asia for the past 10 years and was comparing the Uniqlo cuts from Malaysia to other countries in Asia.

Great and knowledgeable narration of my ctry. Continue your visit. As for Uniqlo sizes, u r right, they r not of standard sizes. Not necessarily because u r in Asia and therefore sizes r smaller. D sizes even differ frm one shipment to another of d same range of clothes. I suspect it's because of where those clothes r being manufactured. So, u'd do better to open d package and visually see whether d size is wat it says it is!!
