Noticed how laid backed and chilled is in Malaysia, stay safe guys!
Hi, welcome back to Malaysia. Today I found out that KL is placed no. 6 as the most visited city in the world. That’s interesting! Just to remind you of the monsoon rain that cause flood in the east coast. TV news hsve been showing flash flood blocking traffic on certain routes. Other than that, some states have introduced apps for parking. No more coupons on sale. Just check with the town council of places you will have your night.
Our petrol is subsidised. It's even cheaper than in Saudi Arabia. Yet, people still complain. Welcome to Malaysia. Enjoy your trip. Make friends. We're friendly. And a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

I love you guys! Can’t wait to watch this episode!!! Malaysia is gonna be amazing!
Here in the Philippines the motorcyclists, and tricycle taxi drivers, wear a light coat back to front to protect their arms from the strong sun. Also leaves the back open to let the wind cool your back. You then have a jacket to put on when you get to your destination of a shopping mall and enter the frigid air-conditioned environment inside.
Malaysia looks incredible ! 😍 Merry Christmas ! 🎄🎅🏻🎁🍾
I hired a car in JB and drove right up the east coast many years ago as far as the Thai border before crossing over to the west coast and North-South highway back towards JB. The west coast is generally a lot more touristy and I loved the sleepy nature of the east coast with it's little towns and villages along the way and huge long stretches of empty sandy beaches. Hope none of that has changed.

Flood season every end of year with some roads impassable.
I lived in Johor Bahru in the 1960s when my Dad was serving in the Royal Navy on a ship based in Sembawang, Singapore. In fact, we lived in Jalan Storey, Kim Teng Park, which is REALLY close to the glass temple. The house we lived in still exists!

12:09 Motorcyclist riding small bikes in Malaysia wear jackets not for protection but simply because they want to avoid smelling like exhaust fumes. Wearing it backward means their back stay open and ventilated to the max. It's also easy to put on and off. If it rains, unless you stop or if the rain pours too heavy, you usually get wet on the front.
Welcome to Malaysia. Just a suggestion for the Air Cond. You can install a curtain between driver cabin and the rear cabin. This keep your driving cabin more cool circulation. But an exhaust/ventilation fan is good too. Maybe some solar type is helpful in energy management. Anyway, glad to see you both enjoy Malaysia.
Malaysia is my favourite place. Best food, best scenery and great people. what else do you need.
Welcome to Malaysia , ENJOY ~
Wow, and to think all this is happening in the middle of a cold winter here in the UK [24/12/23]. Malaysia looks like the ideal winter break. .....and that's despite the rain. ;0)

So enjoying your vlogs as I travelled to these places too. Looking forward to all of your tripping through a Malaysia. So many great mosques and temples. Thank you for sharing.
Minutes 13:10, before the Kota Tinggi bridge u can see the abandoned Police Station on your leftside. I used to live in the quarters area 40 years ago before this office moved to Kota Kecil because this area often floods as high as a two-story building every year end when the monsoon hits.. Now all only memories. Thank you for bringing me back memories of the past❤😢👏💪🧚

Nice to see you guys doing good. I have been to Malaysia one time. I was in Kuala Lumpur. Back in 1998 when my US carrier pulled in. I laughed because we had to take a train from the seaside into downtown and it was very slow. I mean people could walk faster than it.
I had two-fifty aircon on my old van. Two windows open at 50kph. Perfect.😀
Merry Xmas you two , Thanks for being able to follow you on your wonderful travels xx

Merry Christmas to both looking forward to watching your videos in the new year❤❤❤
Malaysia's petrol cheap right?😁 I think you guys should highlight that more often so that Malaysians should be thankful about that. They still asking the government to lower the price😑 Anyway, WELCOME TO MALAYSIA🫰
I enjoyed your video today. Malaysia is a wonderful country with very friendly people. Have fun!! :>)
Driving adventure done right. Backroads are the best. Merry Christmas.
Love watching every week

At least you can speak in the local language when ordering food. 😀Keeping my finger crossed, hoping to bump Trudy and both of you before leaving Malaysia in the near future. Motorcyclist (I am one too) use to wear jacket or track tops back to front to shield the body from the wind while at the same time trying not to be inside a mobile oven esp. when static. Sometimes even raincoats are also worn that way when it rains. Another is , ease of use because they do not have to zip up.

I guess another function of the jacket is also to protect the arms from the sun. I once found out the hard way when I hired such kind of motorcycle for a day and came back at the end of the day with badly burnt arms and thighs.

Fuel is highly subsidised by the govt in Malaysia. The reason it’s cheap compared to other countries. A litre of petrol/diesel is cheaper than a litre of bottled mineral water.
Merry Christmas both of you
Just found you guys and we loved your Malaysia vlog, didn't see Penang but still checking the rest. We both freaked with the Korea forklifts too!

Looks great guys.. And 36p per litre of fuel really does bring home the questionable prices (currently £1.45 per litre) we pay here in the UK.
Floordrobe is the best word I've learned from this channel since "mahoosive." 😁😁 Wearing a jacket backwards on a bike sounds clever: keeps your front from getting wind-burned and let's the sweat dry off your back? Only guessing, too. 36p/litre petrol?? Head maths that makes about $1.50/gallon? That's about ⅓ of my last fill up! Nice! ❤️❤️😎👍 xx

Anything to do with Campervan or Motorhome, you can always visit CamperV Malaysia.

Wow Tanjung Leman has changed in the 25 or so years that I last took a ferry to Sibu from there (back then it was just a few huts and no real jetty)

Welcome to Malaysia
Three type of gravy for the roti canai are dhal curry, chicken/fish/beef curry and the thick reddish one and bit spicy is called sambal made of chili🌶️ paste. Try mix the sambal into the dhal curry to give it a little bit of kick.
If you really wants to see the elephants, you should take Lebuhraya Timur Barat, Jeli to Grik. at about 8pm, the are a lots of elephants on or beside the road.

Shiny shiny temple, super cool. And how funny to have a KFC next to a glorious deserted beach expanse all to yourselves.
tapir sign is common for wild life crossing, but the elephant exclusively for them only.. put more caution on night time.
Excuse me, the pronunciation for Roti is like saying Row-ti, where the "Ro-ti" the "Ro Sounds Like "Row", and not Rotty(Basi@Bahasa) because the Roti served is Fresh And Not Rot/Rotty, Sorry i just need to emphasize on that because languange is sensitive as we all know.Thanks For Yr Kind Understanding, Cheerz :) ❤
