U can see the signboard have that alphabet and numbering before the name of place and road. Example E18 cheras. And at the waze and google maps also there is that alphabet and numbering too. So when the waze says in 500m turn left just look at the E18 and u will see the signboard on the street with the same E18. That is how i navigate my way through malaysia.

Hi there. The 'eye brow' or top shade tint on the top of windscreen is to reduce the sun glare due to the nature of weather in malaysia. It makes driving more comfortable and less stress to the eyes. Not everyone would wear sunglasses, especially those wearing spectacles. And the tint is allowed by Road Transport Department. You will appreciate it when its not there. But anyway, you made it yeay! We must celebrate.

Yes, Malaysians are idiots when driving. Some of the worst drivers in the world hence Malaysia's staggering road casualty rates.

I usually drive from Singapore to KL to visit friends and relatives. If you wish to avoid those small towns, use the North South Plus Highway , the cost isn't much. Go to Tapah toll and exit from the toll in order to go Cameron Highlands. Avoid weekends and peak hours where people are driving to work 8am to 9am or going back from work 5pm to 7pm. When you see the car in front of you changed lane in front of the toll, it means the gate has a problem. Bezza Perodua is not Proton. It is Perodua car company. Those dogs belongs to non muslim farmers (oil palm, vegetables) and they are the guards for the plantations. Sadly, when the dog's population grows, some of them become stray dogs. One last advice to drive in KL, you need to be brave to stick your nose out a bit by bit in order to come out of a junction or else drivers would horn you from behind if waited too long in a queue. KL's driving is adventurous but not as gentle as Singapore's driving. You miss one nice highland about half an hour from Rawang. It is called Fraser's Hill. Up there, there is a golf field and a nice British vibe founded by Mr Fraser. Enjoy. Things to do in Fraser's Hill kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZZuYpZaik66XlNo.html (From Singapore)

You see this in the architecture and the fact that 97% of it's population are Malay Muslims. Others are banned from building, from their own funds, traditional places of worship. Its a racist atrocity and needs to be called out, can you imagine doing this in your country?
