Petrol Station FAIL on the Way to Cameron Highlands 🇲🇾

After spending a few days in Ipoh it was time for a quick nature getaway to Cameron Highlands. This area is famous for its tea plantations, colder climate and beautiful nature in general.
I rented a scooter in Ipoh at TMJ Motorcycle Rental maps.app.goo.gl/m7ciuUt7guwrS... for a few days and set of into the highlands of peninsular Malaysia.
During the trip to Cameron Highlands I made several stops and of course while stopping I had to indulge in local delicacies, enjoy gorgeous nature views and I even made an attempt to get gasoline by myself which didn't go exactly according to plan.
Upon my arrival in Cameron Highlands I had to fin a hotel which seemed harder than expected. After visiting 3 other hotels I settled for a room at KRS Pines Guesthouse maps.app.goo.gl/rBivBBYKcNviJ...

    In Malaysia, you pay first then you fill. First you have to note the number of the pump that you park your bike or car. Then tell the cashier the number and amount(in RM)you want. The computer will set the exact amount of petrol that you fill into your car/bike. FYI, you can pay and fill, the pump will automatically stop the pump once it detects the tank is full. The remaining cash is refunded back at the counter if the amount you paid is more. All petrol stations in Malaysia are self-service because we want to cut down on labour.

    @@Mcanonhmos it is transacted based on the principle of " benefit of the doubt". Some cashiers or petrol station operators do that, for SOME not. for me, my regular station, i park my car there, i shout " kak , Penuh". then she will allow me to refuel FULL, after that, i walk to the cashier to make payment for FULL TANK.

    Your skill at putting your sunglasses down is amazing and funny! Please remember not to ride a motorcycle too fast in the mountains, safety first! For your health, please drink sugar-free drinks as much as possible! No matter who compliments you on how handsome you are, you should be happy because they told the truth! Let me report to you, green tea chocolate is also available in other Asian countries, and green tea flavor should be considered popular in Asia! Most other countries in Asia also drive on the right, so if I go to Malaysia to ride a motorcycle one day, I will not be used to it too! I'm glad you finally found a room, otherwise you would have been sleeping in the forest, ma ma mia! It was a very informative and interesting day, thank you very much for sharing, super great job, Legend! 👍🥰🙌

    6:09 - In Malay language is called "Cincau". Black Cincau actually comes from the cincau tree or grass jelly tree by taking parts of the leaves and twigs that have been dried and going through a certain process until they become jelly. Cincau can be mixed in other drinks such as soybeans, red syrup and some people like to put it in tea.

    Malaysian arent so creative with naming things 😂😂 most of our drinks or food literally meant the ingredients 😂😂 grass jelly drinks is made of some sort of herb grass and turn into jelly and turn into drinks, or in Bahasa we call it "Cincau", can be added into other drinks as well like Jagung Cincau (corn grass jelly), bandung cincau ( rose grass jelly), teh ais cincau (milk tea grass jelly).. if you love nature, can consider coming to Kelantan via Highway Timur Barat (Gerik-Jeli), if you're lucky, you could spot wild elephant, maybe make a stop at Tasik Banding..or you could come to Kelantan via Gua Musang, the highway in between the limestone mountain (Merapoh) is just spectacular..

    simplified. a) Find out your bike is park at which kiosk pump number (see the top of the petrol pump). b) Go to the counter (outside). You can first pay $20 (means MAX) . Tell them your pump number c) Go pump your petrol RON95. Since you are a foreigner, you do not get to pay the citizen subsidized price I believe. d) If your bike fills up to $15 , full and stops. Go back to counter , tell number, and they will rebate you $5. e) If your bike fills up max $20, it stops, and you don't need to do anything, and you can ride away after that. So, usually if not sure, you put deposit of $40-50, pump full and get the rebate from counter. That is how you pump, else,....ppl will pump and leave without paying. That is why you need to pay first. Your case... they just being lenient.

    Try getting one of those plastic sleeve phone holder. I have one and it's extremely useful. The phone stays in the sleeve regardless of the bumps on the road and the plastic screen is capacitive, so you don't need to take the phone out of the sleeve. And it's also waterproof, very useful when you're riding in the rain.
