My FIRST Time in Malaysia 🇲🇾 Kuala Lumpur SURPRISED ME

- Finally I made it to Malaysia! In this first video of my Malaysia Vlog series I went to Kampung Baru to explore the village side of Kuala Lumpur. Kampung Baru is known for the authentic Malay food so obviously I had to try some delicious food. When the sweet lady of KB Tomyam & Seafood goo.gl/maps/deefoK2o8RZJUALV7 invited me for some Roti Canai, I couldn't say no.
After that delicious breakfast I continued my Kuala Lumpur tour direction Salomas Bridge goo.gl/maps/XHU8Lwah6VhweBXR8 where I met up with @BestFoodieForever , he showed me the bridge first and then the world famous Petronas Towers goo.gl/maps/cFE5w485nCz5RAdk8 where we took some pictures. After having a quick coffee at the Suria Mall goo.gl/maps/JEK7o3Gbn1rjeVKr8 we went to the KLCC Park goo.gl/maps/ZYgt4WmHk6J38W2S8
Overal a great first impressions from Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia!

Extremely excited for this Malaysia series. Stay tuned for lots more videos!
Here’s some cultural suggestions for KL/Greater KL/ Klang Valley that are not very popular but definitely worth a visit
Lakshmi Narayan Temple Kuala Lumpur - one of the most beautiful North Indian Hindu temples in Southeast Asia
Thai Buddhist Chetawan Temple - largest Thai Bhuddist temple in Greater KL/ Klang Valley
Guru Nanak Darbar Tatt Khalsa Diwan Gurdwara - Largest Sikh temple (Gurudwara) in Southeast Asia
Catholic Church of The Holy Rosary - One of the most beautiful churches in Kuala Lumpur
You can also try Restoran Jai Hind in Masjid India for some good Malaysian Punjabi food
There's one chinese temple near KLCC... a worthy visit
Hi Tim.. Be careful with the photographer scammed.. They're originally from Indonesia, some of them born here.
Enjoy while you're here ❤🇲🇾
👍👍👍
most beverage in Malaysia are very sweet, the tips is always ask for less/half sugar ("kurang gula" in Bahasa Malaysia)
Welcome to Malaysia 🙏🇲🇾 enjoy it man, one of my favorite countries 💪
Thank you so much! It's a great country to be in 🇲🇾 😍
Hai ken.. ❤ from malaysia
tim, for your information, Ken has explored most places in Malaysia compared to me as a local 😅
Hai, Ken, where are you ? Do you still around Malaysia?
See you next year Ken
Stay safe wherever you are ❤
Malik said he is not Malaysian, but he seems already Malaysianized. It is in our DNA that we are just glad to entertain our guests, show them around our places and cultures, and treat our guests with food 😊
Looking forward to this series mate! 🇲🇾 What a country.
Yeah mate, lovely people and great food!
Tim, thanks for the video. I am a bit disappointed by those Indonesian asking you to stop taking video. You are in Malaysia tourist area and you have your freedom to take any videos you want. Many Malaysian love your videos, especially you get free nasi lemak and you reward that lady is so heart touching. Keep up with your good videos.
By the way, I reported this to tourism Malaysia for where a bunch of gangs in KLCC asking you to stop video.
People who are selling roti canai are immigrant and not originally from malaysia so they have limited understanding in English..usually people who working at the stall in KL are usually from Indonesia or Bangladesh and maybe Nepal. You have to travel more outside of KL to see the true face and Malaysian culture and people.
I hope to visit many other places in Malaysia 🇲🇾 😍
@@timtense Yes, the eatery shops or F&B businesses are owned by Malaysians, but the migrant workers are from other countries such as Indonesia, Bangladesh, Myanmar etc.
I found the further North I went, the more conservative (outside of tourist destinations.) Particularly the North East.
@@timtensewelcome to east malaysia (sabah)
Malaysia has diverse cultures... Malay, Indian, Chinese, east Malaysia (Kadazan, Iban, Bajau etc.) Go east coast states you get a little bit something different experience. Not to forget the northern states [Penang/Kedah/Perak] & southern states [Johor, Melaka & Negeri Sembilan].
Malik is a great addition to the video, I love having locals passionately explains the culture of the country you visited.
Absolutely, Malik did a great job explaining everything about the area to me!
Thanks for your kindness 🤗✨
Malik is a local?
Macam bangla mari je.
It was lovely meeting you bro 😎
Wishing you a great time in Malaysia 🇲🇾
Let’s do it again in another beautiful country 😎😎
Lovely meeting you too. We will meet again for sure!
Tq bro for promoting Malaysia to Tim and his viewers 😍
Terima kasih for giving some guides and knowledge about Malaysia to Tim. Terima kasih banyak banyak 🙏🇲🇾
Enjoy your stay in Kuala Lumpur, City of contrast, a city that never sleeps...
Explore and venture more, diversity of foods and culture of Malay, Chinese and Indian plus others..
Malay foods are delicious you can find in Kampong Baru, Chow Kit Road, Jalan TAR-Masjid India, Ampang and Keramat,. Please enjoy Nasi Lemak, Nasi Kerabu, roti canai, Ramly Burgers and many other varieties of cuisines..
I'm loving it so far and the food is extra ordinary here 😍
@@timtense yes.. MALAYSIA is truly Asia..you can find everything here..🇲🇾✌️😊
Always stir your drinks when in Malaysia, because at least 70% of the time the sugar or condensed milk are not being mixed yet. And generally, Malays likes their drink extra sweet, whenever you order in a Malay restaurant/cafe, ask for your drink “kurang manis”, pronounce it koo-hrang mah-nees
Hi Tim, wow! you are in Malaysia now, welcome to Malaysia 🇲🇾 try to eat nasi lemak, it is the most popular dish in malaysia. you can eat it at Wanjo (the blue color food stall ) it is right behind you on this video 😀
Yes yes, I will definitely try Nasi Lemak. Most likely in the next video. Thanks for the suggestion!
@@timtense welcome mate 👍
Malik is awesome. Not many local can give a good information like he did.
i never miss watching your video. Finally now u in my country. Welcome to Malaysia Tim. Have a nice day
Thanks for that. I'm happy to be here!
In Malaysia sometimes we use the power of hand to stop the vehicles😆I saw you just passed by Wanjo restaurant which is also known for tourist ..Next time you should try your breakfast there..I can't believe the old at lady almost 70😳..She look younger than her age..
By the way Welcome to Malaysia mate😍
Thanks for welcoming me, I appreciate it! Haha power of hand is not to be underestimated 😅 This lady seemed much younger indeed and her house is so beautiful!
Not her age 70 years old but from generation his great grandfather to her
If you noticed, your hot milk tea comes with a glob of condensed milk. They purposely didn't mix it in advanced. Its for you to adjust the sweetness to your liking. Some shops give you half a cup of condensed milk. We always joked that teas like that are gonna get your feet chopped off (bc of diabetes) 😅
Haha I kinda like it sweet so it's all good 🤣
selamat bercuti di Malaysia, excellent explanation by Malik , kudos 👍👍👍👍
pls bear in mind that most of the people u meet on the streets are actually not locals, most of them are foreigners especially foreign workers, including a cameraman guy u met at klcc towers, u need to ask them where are they from or just ask are u local or s'thing everytime u meet ppl, this is meant specifically for KL/Selangor scenario.
The foreigners know they can make money from tourist in klcc. Security guards of klcc are monitoring them but cannot arrest them.
In order to solve this issue is issue tickets to take pictures by klcc company to show Malaysians are taking pictures. Not indons, Bangladeshis, etc etc
I didn't really know from which country they were. Some of them were very friendly and helpful.
Thanks a lot for your kindness and encouragement 🤗
Thank you for this wonderful video. Welcome to KL,, Malaysia. Newly subscribed.
Good to see Ken and Ellis making their comments and Malik in this video.
Thanks for subscribing. I have some videos planned with Ken, Ellis and Malik. Stay tuned for that!
@@timtense Wonderful. 😀
Selamat datang ke Malaysia and be prepared to fall in love with the food.
I already fell in love with the food 😍
Hey Tim welcome to KL Malaysia 😊 thanks for sharing good vlogs around kg Baru.roti canai most popular food 😋have great day & let's explore ahead 🌿
Hi there, thanks for watching the video. The food so far has been extremely delicious 😋
You must go to :
Petrosains
Sunway Lagoon
Times Square
Zoo Negara
One Utama (air ryder)
I-city Shah Alam
Genting Highland
I hope to visit some of these places while in Malaysia, thanks for the suggestions 🇲🇾😍
Beautiful Malaysia 🤩they have words same here in Philippines but different in meaning like Salamat pagi.. here in Philippines Salamat is thank you and pagi is stingray fish 😊..samasama here is go together
Oh yeah, that's true, there are some similarities!
Halo brother ,welcome to KL ,the flag that hang on everywhere is displayed as respect to national day of malaysia
those camera men were not locals, that's why they were quite nervous with your camera pointed at them. i'm sure they don't have license to do business there.
Ooh now I get it. I didn't really know what was going on 😅
That is the problem, no enforcement by immigration.
mmg pun.. dorg tu memalukan malaysia je sbb ramai ingt dia org local. tp ada yg dakwa dari sabah. aku sgt yakin bkn dari sabah. sbb tu suruh off camera. nasib brader ni skip skjp lps dia suruh off tu... pdhal polis bantuan ade lalu lalang dlm video tu... tp tkde tindakan... memalukan malaysia dgn sampah cmtu.
They make good money.
1:41 - There is a Malaysian national flag hanging on the side of the road because Malaysia is celebrating its 66th anniversary of independence on 31 August 2023 under the original name of the "Persekutuan Tanah Melayu" ( Federation of Malaya ).
Malaysia will also celebrate "Malaysia Day" (the formation of the country of Malaysia which then consisted of the Malay Peninsula, Singapore, Sabah and Sarawak) on 16 September 2023.
Okay that makes sense. I saw so many flags there 😅
Welcome to Malaysia Tim
Nice to have you here ❤️
Enjoy your stay
Thank you very much, I'm happy to be here!
Nice vid bro. U are welcoming!!
That's a gift from her appreciate that much .. sharing is caring
Selamat Datang ke Malaysia... Welcome MR Tim ... wish you had a great time here.. enjoy

Glad you visited us brother, hoping you'd come again. Make yourself at home
Your Malay is perfect. Terima kasih with perfect slang too.
Welcome to Malaysia. Have a great trip.
Thank you very much! Which places would you recommend to visit?
Tempat nya sangat bagus sekali
Senang sekali mengikuti perjalanan anda
Terima kasih!
This parcel of land called Kampung Baru (or New Village) is wholly inhabited and owned by Malays from the early 1900s. It is now an enclave effectively surrounded by high rises of KL. A hyper-valuable parcel of land, which is identified as a Malay Reserve, has its terms and conditions which makes it difficult to be developed.
I didn't know it was actually a protected area. I like that they are trying to protect it!
Hey welcome to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I heard good things about Belgium from my fb friends for 20 years who are also Belgians 😊. Will be a country to visit
Thank you very much for the welcome! Belgium has some nice historic places to visit. We also have chocolate, beer and French fries 😅
@@timtenseand also famous football teams and legends like Scifo

Welcome to Malaysia. Have a nice day.

Enjoy the food lovely place and meet the gud people
Tea = teh
Coffee = kopi
Hot chocolate = milo (well, mostly)
If you want cold drink, just add the word ice. Pronounced similarly in Malay (ais).
Teh ais
Kopi ais
Milo ais
Nescafe ais
If you don't want milk, just sugar then you say
Teh o, or teh o ais.
Kopi o, or kopi o ais.
If you cannot take sweet drink , request for "kurang manis".
Kurang = less
Manis = sweet
Take note that because of the hot weather, ice melts quickly. Often the drinks will be prepared extra sweet.
About the car number plate, we follow what British system was back in the 50s and 60s. Same reason why we drive on the left way (steering on.the righr)
And about kampung baru, it was developed around 120 years ago. The government does want the land for development and but villagers persisted not to sell. No matter how much money is offered.
Wow, I appreciate the indepth explanation for everything. I hope to use some of those words soon!
@@Arwalyb3 hi. I believe Malay language is easy to learn and understand, and not very tricky.
Malay is spoken in half of south east asian countries. Singapore, Brunei and Malaysia may speak similar Malay but Indonesia a little bit different though most of the times we could understand each other easily.
Malay language is pretty much straight forward in terms of the words and pronounciation.
For example when you say police in english, in malay we say/spell polis.
Indonesian pronounce the same word as polisi.
In Malay, J is J. As in Jaguar. Not Haguar in some other languages/countries.
And G is like how you pronounce sugar. Except when it is at the end of a word.
And U is not pronounce like Umbrella, but like Union.
And in Malay the word eat is makan.
But eat, ate, eating, eaten is also in Malay as makan. Straight forward.
And Malay language is almost 1-to-1 with English, but in most cases wih different word arrangment.
For example - Jalan Alor is actually Alor street.
Bukit Bintang is Star Hill.
Many foreign workers coming here to work have no difficulty to speak in Malay language. Not good, but as long as we could understand them. Yes, Indonesians skin colour are closely same with the malays, the Indians and Sri Lankans look similar with Malaysian Indians. And Vietnamese looks like the Malaysian chinese.
An easy way of learning Malay perhaps is to learn the common words you use while in Malaysia.
For example - how much? Means 'Berapa harganya' but it has been simplified as 'berapa ringgit?'
I need to order some drinks - saya nak minta air (again, its common for people to say saya nak order air).
Unless you plan to stay here long, it maybe fun to learn Malay and blend in. But as you are aware most Malaysians could speak and understand basic/simple english so learning Malay language is not crucial here.
You may come across though people in rural areas not speaking English. This is completel normal.
And if you find Indians or Malays not able to speak English in the city, they are most probably foreign workers.
Bear in mind most Chinese and Indians in Malaysia are highly competent in at least 3 languages. Some could master 4.
(Malay, English, Chinese Mandarin, Tamil)
U are welcome brother 😊😊
Welcome to Malaysia. 🎉
Thank you very much, I appreciate it!
Welcome to Kuala Lumpur, Tim… You’l enjoy Malaysian food bro… Chinese @ China Town, Malay food @ Kampong (kg) Baru n Indian food @ Little India near Brickfields … Enjoy!…. You should try nasi lemak at Wan Jo near the place that you had earlier…
So many great places for food in Malaysia 😍
@@timtense😍😍tq
KL awesome!
Absolutely!
Yo roti canai was voted as the best bread in the world. You're lucky you get to taste it

Thanks for watching!
Great videos ❤
I appreciate it!
Enjoy 🎉
Thank you so much!
Holly Bro Malik and Tim nice 👍 to see boot of you
For tea, they pour condensed milk, not sugar. If you want to request no sugar, you can order tea O or coffee O. Certain shop you can order tea/coffee with fresh milk and without sugar.
I actually like it with condensed milk. Both sugar and condensed milk is a bit too much though 😂
@@timtenseno worries. You can request anything when you place an order.
Teh/Teh tarik= tea with milk
Teh O = tea with sugar
Teh O Kosong = tea without sugar
Teh Ice / Teh O Ice = with ice
Our drinks generally on the sweet side, so you can always ask for less sweet (kurang manis)
If you're a coffee guy, you can order coffee as well:
Kopi = local coffee with milk
Kopi O = local coffee with sugar
Nescafe = nescafe with milk
Nescafe O = nescafe with sugar
Nice video..
Thanks for watching!
Welcome to 🇲🇾 🇲🇾 🇲🇾

Please come to Terengganu.. many beautiful places you can visit and delicious foods u can try..trust me.. you won't regret 😊
Welcome to the foodies paradise
Thank you very much, looking forward to all that delicious food!
Hey buddy. The tea you had was not with butter but condensed milk which gives the sweetness. Enjoy KL it’s a great City.
In Malaysia I recommend Penang (George Town) for food, Taman Negara for trekking, the Jungle railway, Perhentian Islands for beach and snorkelling and Malacca for history.
I like that kind of tea, it was very delicious and a bit thicker than usual milk tea. Penang is on my list and I hope to visit some of those other recommendations as well!
Excellent presentation
Thank you, I appreciate it!
wow nice country!!!
Yes yes, Malaysia has some nice places!
@@timtense i would love to visit it ,once in my life ✨
I also wana travel like you traveling world and showing it to people after achieving a level of financial independence

Welcome to malaysia 🇲🇾 ❤
Thank you very much 😊
Moden city.. thanks bro
Thanks for watching bro!
If you finding the teh tarik (milk tea) too sweet... you can customize it, order "kurang manis" means less sweet.
I like sweet actually so it was okay for me 😋
Roti canai is voted as no 1 street food in the world for 2023
