ExploreList it's not completely the Islamic culture, it's more of how the people here are educated and the lifestyle. Of course the religion plays a part but trust me, it is how we were taught since young.
I was standing at a market stall in Malaysia watching them make food. A Malay girl asked me where I was from and explained what they were cooking....I decided to buy the food so she ordered for me and then left. When I went to pay the man for my food he told me the girl had paid for me....I will never forget her kindness....I LOVE this country.....wish I was back there....greetings from Ireland x
hahhaha relatable....but i am malaysian, and ive been experience for about 3 times where someone had already paid my food. Once, i asked the person why she pay for me and the reason is just because today is her special day (i dont remember what special day she said) (edit) 3 times people paid my food but ive experience people paid for my things too and im very grateful!!i guess they were having a very good day..
I'm a Malaysian, I didn't know that we are so nice and what you have mentioned on this video until I've migrated to other country, now I missed my own country so much and proud to tell others I'm a Malaysian.
Thank you for watching and I am glad you are proud to be Malaysian, because you should be. Nothing wrong with being proud of where you are from, I know I am.
you cant compare a country.. unless you had travel around the world.. Malaysia is a very peaceful place.. less or none natural disaster(beside the hot weather haha).. Crime rate in lower avenge..
Come home Andrew. The choice to come back home was the best for me 😬 and hope it will be for you too. Darren, what a gentle soul you have. Enjoy your stay and make it your second home away from home.
I am American and I like Malaysia since I first arrive here for tourism purpose. I hope to get my Malaysia Permenant Residency soon and stay in Malaysia.
I was in Malaysia for a short while and I realised that people were super kind and well behaved..many strangers had paid for my meals without me knowing anything about it!!! Paid and gone not even giving me a chance to thank them.
I love Malaysia because it is a place where i converted Islam....and where i married my husband...Yes i agree with you .... Malaysia is a beautiful and peaceful country with a great people... My husband is an Algerian and im in Philippines and we are planning to settle/live in Malaysia in the near future.... Beautiful mosque and their honesty is what i love most...
@@radhiaboussadia3801 absolutely yes...it so warm and peaceful country....you'll feel at home ....people are friendly (but careful at china town place/this place is a mix race ) Arab place is so beautiful and peaceful
@@edithaguillermo5736 uhm, malaysia is multiracial and multicultural with different religion like islam buddhism christianity hinduism other chinese folk religions and more, ppl of mixed race is present throughout the whole country, also wym arab place, we are in malaysia in southeast asia, check ur map. and lemme give u a heads up, dont be racist to any other races we all live together peacefully in this country, dont try to stir things up we dont want that.
I used to study in Malaysia... watchng this brought back the memories!!! I totally agree, malaysians are some of the best people I've ever met and im talking about all the races. Extremely friendly! And the food! Damn it ! I miss this place! I must go back and live there for at least a month!!!! Malaysia Boleh!
I love malaysia so much. Ive travelled all across asia for 1 year and malaysia was undoubtedly my highlight. I went there for 1 week and stayed for 8!! Everything you said about the people is true! They are the nicest welcoming people ever and they dont want anything in return unlike thailand where they 'usually' just want your money. I think the strong islamic culture makes the community experience even stronger. Im planning to move to Pennag when im 31 when i retire.
"I think the strong islamic culture makes the community experience even stronger." I would agree with that. In Thailand I often feel that I am being ripped off because people are so focused on money. Here people are totally different. Of course, they will be the occasional taxi driver who tries it on by taking you the long route, but that happens anywhere in the world.
Is not really about Islamic but it's multiculture of the people living here.Everyone can live together peacefully regardless of their religion and culture.Furthermore most Malaysia are English competence and it really help tourists to move everywhere they want.
Angela Lawing i see ur point and agree, but from my experience i had the best interactions with the muslim malays. For example when i went to Khota baru for 1 week where there are hardly any tourists (its an islamic state) they treated me like family. From the young people to the old they were all so genuine. I asked them how come they are so friendly and they literally said its the islamic way of life to invite others for food and hospitality.
You are always welcomed back sir...i think the reason that you have found warmth and happiness in malaysia is because you yourself have shared your love with the ppl you met and you chose to focus on the positive instead of the negative. All the best to you and hope you continue to visit our country.
Thank you saying those kind words. I believe every country has negatives about them, but focusing on the positives is important at a time when there is so much negativity in the world.
iAwareNow stfu ugly man, ur just a jealous that he choosing malaysia as his lovely place right? When u show ur jealousy, it's already shown up that u r the piece of idioshit person....what a poor country R u live in
Alya Hamzah; shame this is not reflected in the draconian race hate laws in Malaysia and Indonesia against families with mixed origins.. total insult to Islam
Darren I can confirm everything you just said I arrived in Malaysia in 2002 for work. Having worked in 11 countries before I felt like at home here within two weeks. Since ten years I enjoy retirement in KL and still am very happy here.
Terima kasih... im malaysia but i want be like japanese people.. hope u all wish malaysia can be like japanese people and korea people.. first class minded... 😍😍
john kim I love a man named john because in Islam its refers to Nabi Yah'ya Alaihissalam...and he is a Prophet alongside with Nabi Isa(Jesus) and Nabi Zakaria(Zacharia)...may Lord bless all of them 😊💕💕💕💕
I would choose Malaysia as my first choice for sure if I do emigrate from the UK. I would move to KL anyday. I've been to KL a few times, Putrajaya, Malacca, Kuala Terenganu, Redang Island, Perhentian Islands, Langkawi. This country is absolutely awesome
Please come to malaysia including sabah and sarawak .. you can go to mount kinabalu, semporna so many beautiful island, in semporna .. i gerrenti you love it malaysia .. yeahh
Hi Darren , i understand deeply what you show for your feelings about Malaysia ..thats the best of country in South East Asia i ever visited , feel like home sweet home when landing there ..Malaysia Truly Asia ! Really mean it ..
I've visited most countries in Asia, and Malaysia is my favourite. As you said - the people, the mix of cultures, the public transport, the prices, and of course the food....all excellent!
This is very positive comments about Malaysia. Thank you and stay peacefully in Malaysia. We are Malaysian and we are multicultural. We love peoples and accept all the differences and uniquely.
I absolutely LOVE Malaysia, its natural beauty, culture and food, but most importantly its people. I've been branded an undercover Malaysian many a time on UA-cam, precisely for saying things like that. But having been to this wonderful nation several times, I think I can speak from a bit of experience. I haven't, however, been to Borneo, so that's definitely on the bucket list.
Can you tell us the name of the apartment you're staying in? Is it in a hotel? For the reasons you gave, I love Malaysia too. My third time visiting, last year, I was at the airport having just arrived and wanted something to drink. I was at a store wanting to buy a soft drink for 20RM but realized I had only 8RM 'cause I didn't exchange money yet. An older gentlemen standing next to me offered to buy it for me. I didn't let him but I was really impressed by his kindness. Btw, another reason I think Malaysia is great is they also have western style food that I often can't get in the Asian country I'm living in. So in addition to Malaysian cooking, I can enjoy western dishes like back home that I miss. To some degree I think Malaysia is a hidden gem though more people are discovering it.
Hi, I am staying in an apartment, but will do an apartment tour later in the week, revealing all. I had a similar scenario where I went to a shop, and I realised I didn't have any money, so told the shopkeeper that I'd go to the ATM, and come back. He told me to take the drinks and bring the money later, which again blew my mind. When I returned with the money he gave me the drinks for free, and said that I am a trustworthy person, so have them on me. I could write a book about the stories from the last 3 years that I've not discussed on videos.
Malaysian here.. If you are paying Rm20 for a soft drink somebody is ripping u off.. A can cost around Rm2 usually in convenient stores, altho restaurants might sell up to rm5-7
I made an error. The soft drink was a plastic bottle and around RM5-6 but I was also trying to buy a newspaper if I recall. I didn't have enough to buy both. So the gentlemen offered to buy me the soft drink. :-)
I'm a Filipino and have been in Malaysia 2x for training. First was in KL and the 2nd was in Damai Laut. The people are great and the food as well. A truly peaceful and relaxing place compared to where i'm from. Planning for my MM2H in 3 years or less.
Hi Andy, it sure is. I'd love to spend longer here in the future, and visit Sabah, Sarawak and some of the islands and cities like lpoh. Kuala Lumpur always drags me back though because it's such a great city to visit.
Thanks for sharing, Darren :) I'm really happy to know that you enjoyed Malaysia. Gonna post this on to my facebook page. Do you have a facebook account which I can tag?
I know Malaysia is a pluralistic society with many different cultures and religions, but if there's any Muslim-majority country I'd readily recommend for the hospitable cultural experience alone, it'd be Malaysia. Believe me, I've been to a few.
I have been watched many videos about a westerner talk about malaysia. This one is the most positive. Thanks for giving positive comment about my country. I give u 1 tips, u or other westerner also can be a famous celebrity if u can speak malay here. 😃
Haha I watched the westerner UA-camr who could speak brilliant Malay, when I come back and stay for three months, I need you all to teach me how to speak Malay! 😬
Lots of foreign people told me Malaysia is a blessed country,pity that many locals don't feel those blessing and take things for granted.May you have a blessed life thanks
Im from malaysia, im so proud when you said you're happy living in malaysia. We as malaysian people welcoming whoever comes to malaysia. Thank you my brother
When you live in the country, sometimes it is easy to forget. I'm the same with England - with all the political turmoil that's going on and negative news, you need something to remind you that's not all that bad.
I love your positive outlook on this country and I feel the same. The people are very friendly. I was there in 2011 till 2013 and miss this country so much. Cannot wait to go back
One thing you said Darren really connected with me. I was a seaman for 32 years and have been all round the world. I started working on bulk carriers which stayed in port any where from one week to a month. When people ask me the best country I have been to , I tell them without hesitation that the best places are the places where I have been fortunate to make good friends. Then I realized that these places were always the remote ports with only small towns or villages nearby. I remember there were 300 hundred local people at the port of St. Vincente in Chile to see us off after 3 weeks in port. My Chilean friends wrote me to say that this was reported in their local with pictures the next day. They said this had never happened before. In retrospect, I have come to realize why this happened. Like me, 80 % of the crew were Malaysians. It does indeed take two hands to clap. Being brought up in a multi racial country has made it easier to get along with people of different cultures. We have come to see that there are only two different colors in this world, the color good and the color bad.
@@remotedarren Once you have grown up with someone and formed a strong friendship you stop thinking in terms of color, creed or religion. Thanks for the acknowledgement and appreciation.
karunanithi n.ramachandran Beautifully writen/spoken. Today i am more grateful to be a Malaysian than i was already a grateful Malaysian yesterday. Thank you too RemoteDarren for your kind positive comments of Malaysia.
Stumble upon one of your videos and now I'm subscribed to your channel! Cheers! Honestly, I love the way you edit all of your videos, it's so simple yet it can be very useful for others. I mean with minimum background music and full of your footage, your voice speaking, and somehow I enjoy that form of simplicity. Keep it up sir !
Appreciate you saying that. I prefer to keep my videos without music because I like to hear the place, to get the real atmosphere. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment 😀
I like malaysia because they live peacefully with another races, respect each other, nice n helpful.. such a unique country n we feel comfortable with it..
From historical point the Malay Peninsula was recorded in Geographia by 2nd century Greek geographer Claudius Ptolemy. The peninsula was known as Aurea Chersonesus (The Golden Chersonese) and Maleu Kolon Prom (The Malay Peninsula).

Malaysia truely asia..of course there's a good and bad about Malaysia. But, thanks for all the compliment. Hope someday you will visit Borneo (Sarawak and Sabah). Maybe you find a little bit more experience there. Dont worry the food still the same..
Hi Eddy, there's no such thing as a perfect country, and there are good and bad people everywhere, just as they are good and bad things about every country. I prefer to focus on the positive, because there is so much negativity in the world. Borneo, Sarawak and Sabah are certainly on my list for the next time I visit Malaysia. 👍
evelyn latou Sabah (North Borneo) is often referred to as “The land below the wind”, because of its location just south of the typhoon-prone region around the Philippines.
Hi Darren...it has been a pleasure watching your video with all the nice and positive compliments about my country, Malaysia. Most of the international visitors/travellers that I 've met in KL and other main cities in Malaysia often told me that Malaysia as one of the preferred holiday destinations or destination for retirement in Asia lie on these four main important factors: 1. The friendliness of its people 2. Foods 3. Cultural diversity 4. Cost of living compared to other major Asian cities. These are generally the reasons why Malaysia is well-liked or favoured by most foreigners. Keep up with your good work and spirit, Darren! Hope to watch you again in your next video! Malaysians certainly love your positive attitude. :-)
Dear Sir, as a Malaysian, I would like to thank you for your positive reviews about Malaysia. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay in Malaysian. We always welcome you to be back in Malaysia anytime as you like. Cheers and all the best for you, sir.
Thank you, I am Malaysian Chinese. I do think Malaysia is a great country after visiting the other countries. We have everything here, all sort of food n cafes. I appreciate my country.
I am a retired American am currently visiting Penang / George Town for my first Malaysian experience have really been impressed here with the warm and welcoming people and the amazing food. Tomorrow will be visiting KL for the first time am excited to see it I have been to most countries in Asia and so far this is one of my favorites. I cold see living here if I can sort out the long term visa requirements. Nice video by the way!
Im a Singaporean and absolutely love this video! Yes for us Malay Muslims, KL is a halal food haven and it is hard to keep in shape here! In fact, my family is going up north for a foodie tour soon!
A Brit having Fish and Chips in Malaysia and then getting food poisoning LOL. Poor Darren. He needs to come home and get some proper Fish and Chips from his local chippy.
If you look in history native malays they’re nice to foreigners. But if foreigners trying to take away what is rightfully theirs they will fight till the end. Ask the portuguese, dutch,british east indies, japan etc etc.
We always welcome you back bro. We as a malaysian are always wanted to help the tourists. Cus we got this feeling of responsibility to help the tourists, when you got your answers, we felt that we've done our job as a Malaysian and proud to be one. You need to tell your friends bout this, dont be afraid to ask cus we dont charge you anything for answers like they did in thailand. Haha 😂
Haha, that's another reason why I love Malaysia - don't feel like that you are being ripped off all the time like in some countries we won't mention. Thanks for the comment 😀
Yes, I'll miss it too. So much to explore and discover walking around the streets and neighbourhoods. Looking forward to my travels over the next 6 months, so will be revealing more about that soon.
It really touched my heart when you shared the story about your neighbour giving you the tray of eggs. I was a teenager when I followed Dad to live in Malaysia. There were only the two of us and Dad works offshore A LOT back then. So I was left to my own devices. I WAS NEVER LEFT FOR WANTING when it comes to food! Every single day, pretty much every single meal, all my neighbouring aunties and uncles will give me the food they made for their family. Every single day, without fail, without my Dad arranging anything, without me asking, without us paying or giving anything back. I still live with that spirit of giving until today. They have not only made me feel loved and welcomed, they have also instilled in me the spirit of giving which I hope I will pass on to my kids someday! Oh, and YAYYY NASI LEMAK!!
Malaysians should be more thankful for public transports. Most tourists that make vlogs say that public transport is one of the pros of Malaysia. We need to appreciate it more
@@alicezakarian4827 What are you even talking about. I don't understand a thing, just some wrongly spelled stupid and rubbish. You made a sensitive Malaysian say bodo yo.
I agree, I'm in Penang at the moment and just last week, I went to watch the sunset in a beach bar/restaurant and I had a bit of money around 70 ringgit but asked if I could pay via card, one of the staff must have misunderstood me and said yes, so after my bill came it was around 120 Ringgit, I gave my card and they said they didn't take it. Solution: expecting to have to go to a ATM , they said just send us the money online when you get home. Imagine that trust elsewhere! Blew me away, I actually paid online via Transferwise app in the end at the bar .
Nice sharing 👍, I am a mixed, from Chinese - Malay family in Kelantan. Actually, it is one of the old tradisional culture, the people will welcome others the most, especially when the tourist act politely & nicely, that is what they will get in return. The local will really appreciate outsider with good manners, what you give is what you'll get back in return, especially when we are talking about rural, village people, they are more nicer compare to those who live in the urban cities.
loved this video Darren. I'm really glad to know that this place brings so much happiness to you. my fave part of the video was all the food you would cut to when describing them lol made me hungry maaaan. This style of video is always one of my faves because it's like a mini documentary with a lot of information and great visuals to compliment them. The journey may be over, but there's plenty more ahead right? Very excited to see what else is in store for the future.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed the video, and I plan to do more of this type of video, providing I can think of interesting topics to talk about and have the b-roll. No, the journey isn't over - just a 4 week pit-stop in the UK, and then new adventures commence. I'll be revealing the route soon, although you follow me on Twitter, so, I've already given it away 😆
Thank you so much for the kind comment. Yes, Malaysia is a beautiful country to be in. I migrated but decided to retire in Malaysia since my aging mum doesn't want to go over to where I migrated. I am glad that I came back... food, people and cost of living very very affordable.
I agree with you Darren. I am also a Brit married to a Malaysian Chinese and we have visited Malaysia every year since 1980. We have our own condo in Klebang, Melaka but travel all over Malaysia. Lovely people and great food. Who needs to go anywhere else.
Thanks Pete, I think I might start doing one sit down vlog a week, talking about a particular topic. As for returning home, sadly, on Saturday I will be flying back home via Dubai. Make sure the runway is ready for me 😂
I think Malaysians / Asians are generally friendly people. We will try to understand, with patience, foreigners who don't speak our language. When I visited some countries of another continent, people just ignored me when I don't speak their language. LOL. Malaysia, is especially blessed because we don't have natural disasters such as typhoon, volcanoes, earthquakes etc.
Thanks for loving Malaysia🤣Ain't I proud to be a Malaysian😉👍 I hope you will visit Malaysia again😁 I also hope more people will visit Malaysia😏 Everyone is welcome👍
I just got back from 3 years in Singapore and realize I did not spend nearly enough time in Malaysia. I will when I visit next winter. Thanks for this video!
Thank you for loving Malaysia! It's great to know that you met nice people and experiencing good things. Thank you for sharing positive thoughts about our country.. and we apologize if anything inconvenient happened to you during your travel here
its TRUE!!! i'm korean and i came to malaysia to visit my friends and guest what my car broke down and literelly lots of malaysian stop by asking me and thats just WOW
Hi there..i,m malaysian from east malaysia,borneo,sabah.Kota Kinabalu is my hometown where i was born.Right now i live in the central of kuala lumpur.I really to see you video and hope we can keep it touch and hope to meet u one day..regards aily
Hey, well keep in touch with my travels. I will be returning to Malaysia, and want to visit Borneo and Sabah for sure. Maybe the next time I visit Kuala Lumpur I'll organise a meet up!
I moved to Malaysia a few months back for work. I repositioned here with a view to retiring in the Region, Malaysia is up there for early retirement, indeed my Thai friends go as far as saying cost of living is cheaper than Bangkok. It's a hidden gem.
How does it feel to be white, which based on what I know is a significant minority of Malaysia. Do you find any problems with this and finding friends there etc.
You lucky mannn...your currency can afford you stay n live harmony and peaceful for lonnnnnngggg period.....no harm mannnn its a fact hahahaha.... in his beautiful country..come to sabah..it much more happening...sabah is part of this country..you will be crazy if you come here..l😀😁😂😃😄😅.....since you are here...go to urban life..you will be amaze with it...mount kinabalu is waiting for you mannn....come over...
This video speaks volume bout your whole self being in Msia. It’s truly overwhelming to hear all those warm opinions bout my country from an outsider (who knows you might be an insider in a few more years here) I wish you will never get bored of our very humble and small place. Please take yourself to explore Borneo (Sabah & Sarawak) as well, bet you will love it on a diff level! Well Wherever you are Darren, please take care! :)
Malaysia food is definitely one of its charm that attracts everyone, even a local like myself. We came from the land of Sarawak and coming here to live in KL (for work), we met so many lovely colleagues who are from Penang, Kelantan, Malacca, Johor. etc. Everyday, we learn something new about the food that they talk about from their hometown and vice versa. We talk about food in Sarawak (kolo mee, sarawak laksa, umai, ayam pansuh, etc) and they tell us about nasi dagang, kuih badak berendam, etc. I believe that every food has a story and always, people are happy to share their story of their favourite food with us. Oh yeah, thank you for sharing your story about having the lovely nasi lemak. And you're always welcome here in Malaysia!
Hey, great video. Plan on moving to KL the end of this year and have been doing research for accommodation as I will be living there for a year or more. Was wondering what the name is of your apartment complex?

That is a good idea. Living in Malaysia is rather cheaper say for example if you were to live in Singapore. People here are friendly and helpful.

Malaysia OhTanahAirku Korea is first class minded to me.
I would choose Malaysia as my first choice for sure if I do emigrate from the UK. I would move to KL anyday. I've been to KL a few times, Putrajaya, Malacca, Kuala Terenganu, Redang Island, Perhentian Islands, Langkawi. This country is absolutely awesome
This makes me want to go Malaysia too now 😁. From the UK too.
Please come to malaysia including sabah and sarawak .. you can go to mount kinabalu, semporna so many beautiful island, in semporna .. i gerrenti you love it malaysia .. yeahh

Hi Darren , i understand deeply what you show for your feelings about Malaysia ..thats the best of country in South East Asia i ever visited , feel like home sweet home when landing there ..Malaysia Truly Asia ! Really mean it ..
I've visited most countries in Asia, and Malaysia is my favourite.
As you said - the people, the mix of cultures, the public transport, the prices, and of course the food....all excellent!
This is very positive comments about Malaysia. Thank you and stay peacefully in Malaysia. We are Malaysian and we are multicultural. We love peoples and accept all the differences and uniquely.
Been to Malaysia twice and going back in February 2020, love your channel, definitely make Malaysia home when I retire in 5 years.
It's certainly a place that's on my short list to retire in! Have fun. I'll be back in Malaysia in 2020 too.
Org malaysia yg asyik condem negara sendiri patut tgok vdeo ni..
there will be progress if there is a request.
Yes bro...
Kondem for the better i think it be okay....
Naya kamu ni wan lebor...orang bota ke..aje bajang kamu nie...welcome to malaysia and you will feel like in paradise.

I'm a Malaysian...except for the politician... Malaysia are totally heaven.. I wouldn't change any country for Malaysia....
I cannot comment on the politics because it hasn't affected me personally, but I love visiting Malaysia, and will be back soon.
As a Malaysian too, I am totally agree 😂😂😂
+Iori Yagami
Good point.
But politic everywhere is sucks, not only in Malaysia 😂 😂
Lol!
I am glad ph won
I absolutely LOVE Malaysia, its natural beauty, culture and food, but most importantly its people. I've been branded an undercover Malaysian many a time on UA-cam, precisely for saying things like that. But having been to this wonderful nation several times, I think I can speak from a bit of experience. I haven't, however, been to Borneo, so that's definitely on the bucket list.
where are from?
i saw your comment in other video and someone say he track your ip come from malaysia.(sorry for my eng)
you got no content at all in your account. you should add some to fight the accusation
I love Borneo..the people ,the beautiful landscape
You must visit Borneo, especially Sarawak (the other malaydian Borneo state Sabah has too many foreigners). Sarawak is even better than West Malaysia.
Tks for reminding us how good Malaysia as we are proud to be Malaysian!
Can you tell us the name of the apartment you're staying in? Is it in a hotel?
For the reasons you gave, I love Malaysia too. My third time visiting, last year, I was at the airport having just arrived and wanted something to drink. I was at a store wanting to buy a soft drink for 20RM but realized I had only 8RM 'cause I didn't exchange money yet. An older gentlemen standing next to me offered to buy it for me. I didn't let him but I was really impressed by his kindness. Btw, another reason I think Malaysia is great is they also have western style food that I often can't get in the Asian country I'm living in. So in addition to Malaysian cooking, I can enjoy western dishes like back home that I miss. To some degree I think Malaysia is a hidden gem though more people are discovering it.
Hi, I am staying in an apartment, but will do an apartment tour later in the week, revealing all. I had a similar scenario where I went to a shop, and I realised I didn't have any money, so told the shopkeeper that I'd go to the ATM, and come back. He told me to take the drinks and bring the money later, which again blew my mind. When I returned with the money he gave me the drinks for free, and said that I am a trustworthy person, so have them on me. I could write a book about the stories from the last 3 years that I've not discussed on videos.
Malaysian here.. If you are paying Rm20 for a soft drink somebody is ripping u off.. A can cost around Rm2 usually in convenient stores, altho restaurants might sell up to rm5-7
This is true. Most I've paid is 2-3RM for a can, but I guess they could have been buying a 2litre bottle.
keyword here--airport..but i think that is way too overpriced even at the airport..
I made an error. The soft drink was a plastic bottle and around RM5-6 but I was also trying to buy a newspaper if I recall. I didn't have enough to buy both. So the gentlemen offered to buy me the soft drink. :-)
I'm a Filipino and have been in Malaysia 2x for training. First was in KL and the 2nd was in Damai Laut. The people are great and the food as well. A truly peaceful and relaxing place compared to where i'm from. Planning for my MM2H in 3 years or less.
Thanks for sharing!
hi dazza totally agree Malaysia is a wonderful country
Hi Andy, it sure is. I'd love to spend longer here in the future, and visit Sabah, Sarawak and some of the islands and cities like lpoh. Kuala Lumpur always drags me back though because it's such a great city to visit.
try Johor Bahru, a 2nd largest city after KL in the southmost peninsula Malaysia
You're always welcome to Malaysia. Please come again
I will be back, 100% guaranteed, love it here.
My oldest brother married a british and she loves living here since 30 years. ago.
Wow, long time to live in Malaysia. Lucky 😀
Ooh yes salimah never tell me
Thanks for sharing, Darren :) I'm really happy to know that you enjoyed Malaysia. Gonna post this on to my facebook page. Do you have a facebook account which I can tag?
Thank you so much. It's facebook.com/explorelist/ although I should post on it more 😀
:D You should! Keep up with the videos. The colour here is superb btw
Thank you! I love playing around with the colours and experimenting 😀

I know Malaysia is a pluralistic society with many different cultures and religions, but if there's any Muslim-majority country I'd readily recommend for the hospitable cultural experience alone, it'd be Malaysia. Believe me, I've been to a few.
Thank you for the nice comment.I seen your nice comment about Malaysia everywhere. So can I know where are you from?Just curious.
I have been watched many videos about a westerner talk about malaysia. This one is the most positive. Thanks for giving positive comment about my country.
I give u 1 tips, u or other westerner also can be a famous celebrity if u can speak malay here. 😃
Haha I watched the westerner UA-camr who could speak brilliant Malay, when I come back and stay for three months, I need you all to teach me how to speak Malay! 😬
@@remotedarren can darren..if u really want to learn malay language
@@remotedarren You are welcome my friend... We Malaysian pupils will teach you to speak Malay. Bahasa Malaysia very easy to learn. Haahaha.

You have a lot of really positive energy! Thank you for this video. I am inspired to go to Malaysia.
I absolutely ADORE Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia such a beautiful city . The people they are so warm and friendly, Im totally in loooove.
Me too, I'd love to retire there one day.
Lots of foreign people told me Malaysia is a blessed country,pity that many locals don't feel those blessing and take things for granted.May you have a blessed life thanks
Im from malaysia, im so proud when you said you're happy living in malaysia. We as malaysian people welcoming whoever comes to malaysia. Thank you my brother
Only but good things to say about Malaysia, especially the people. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment 😀
Thank you for reminding me how great my country is.
When you live in the country, sometimes it is easy to forget. I'm the same with England - with all the political turmoil that's going on and negative news, you need something to remind you that's not all that bad.
I love your positive outlook on this country and I feel the same. The people are very friendly. I was there in 2011 till 2013 and miss this country so much. Cannot wait to go back
You should, Jared. So much transformation going on right now too, especially in cities like Kuala Lumpur.
One thing you said Darren really connected with me. I was a seaman for 32 years and have been all round the world. I started working on bulk carriers which stayed in port any where from one week to a month. When people ask me the best country I have been to , I tell them without hesitation that the best places are the places where I have been fortunate to make good friends. Then I realized that these places were always the remote ports with only small towns or villages nearby. I remember there were 300 hundred local people at the port of St. Vincente in Chile to see us off after 3 weeks in port. My Chilean friends wrote me to say that this was reported in their local with pictures the next day. They said this had never happened before. In retrospect, I have come to realize why this happened. Like me, 80 % of the crew were Malaysians. It does indeed take two hands to clap. Being brought up in a multi racial country has made it easier to get along with people of different cultures.
We have come to see that there are only two different colors in this world, the color good and the color bad.
Great comment! :)
@@remotedarren
Once you have grown up with someone and formed a strong friendship you stop thinking in terms of color, creed or religion. Thanks for the acknowledgement and appreciation.

Today i am more grateful to be a Malaysian than i was already a grateful Malaysian yesterday.
Thank you too RemoteDarren for your kind positive comments of Malaysia.
Stumble upon one of your videos and now I'm subscribed to your channel! Cheers! Honestly, I love the way you edit all of your videos, it's so simple yet it can be very useful for others. I mean with minimum background music and full of your footage, your voice speaking, and somehow I enjoy that form of simplicity. Keep it up sir !
Appreciate you saying that. I prefer to keep my videos without music because I like to hear the place, to get the real atmosphere. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment 😀
I like malaysia because they live peacefully with another races, respect each other, nice n helpful.. such a unique country n we feel comfortable with it..
From historical point the Malay Peninsula was recorded in Geographia by 2nd century Greek geographer Claudius Ptolemy.
The peninsula was known as Aurea Chersonesus (The Golden Chersonese) and Maleu Kolon Prom (The Malay Peninsula).
Always a mind of useful information, thank you for sharing! 😀
Ginger Teddy, thanks for this info. I wish to find out more about The Golden Chersonese and Maleu Kolon Prom. Could you please tell me of any websites, if any. Thanks v much.

Malaysia truely asia..of course there's a good and bad about Malaysia. But, thanks for all the compliment. Hope someday you will visit Borneo (Sarawak and Sabah). Maybe you find a little bit more experience there. Dont worry the food still the same..
Hi Eddy, there's no such thing as a perfect country, and there are good and bad people everywhere, just as they are good and bad things about every country. I prefer to focus on the positive, because there is so much negativity in the world. Borneo, Sarawak and Sabah are certainly on my list for the next time I visit Malaysia. 👍
ExploreList
nice..im form Sabah (land below the wind).
Eddy Agus Why is Sabah reffered to as the land below the wind?
evelyn latou
Sabah (North Borneo) is often referred to as “The land below the wind”, because of its location just south of the typhoon-prone region around the Philippines.
Eddy Agus Thank you for your reply, but is Sabah vulnerable to typhoons too like how Philippines is?
53 years living in Malaysia. I love Malaysia forever.
Great!
Hi Darren...it has been a pleasure watching your video with all the nice and positive compliments about my country, Malaysia. Most of the international visitors/travellers that I 've met in KL and other main cities in Malaysia often told me that Malaysia as one of the preferred holiday destinations or destination for retirement in Asia lie on these four main important factors:
1. The friendliness of its people
2. Foods
3. Cultural diversity
4. Cost of living compared to other major Asian cities.
These are generally the reasons why Malaysia is well-liked or favoured by most foreigners.
Keep up with your good work and spirit, Darren! Hope to watch you again in your next video!
Malaysians certainly love your positive attitude. :-)
Thanks for the comment, Sam.
@@remotedarren My pleasure Darren. Hope to hear from you again with your new video ya...:-)
Dear Sir, as a Malaysian, I would like to thank you for your positive reviews about Malaysia. I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay in Malaysian. We always welcome you to be back in Malaysia anytime as you like. Cheers and all the best for you, sir.
Thank you, I am Malaysian Chinese. I do think Malaysia is a great country after visiting the other countries. We have everything here, all sort of food n cafes. I appreciate my country.

Welcome to Malaysia, come back frequently. Cheap and good
Thank you, and I will be back! 😀
I am a retired American am currently visiting Penang / George Town for my first Malaysian experience have really been impressed here with the warm and welcoming people and the amazing food. Tomorrow will be visiting KL for the first time am excited to see it I have been to most countries in Asia and so far this is one of my favorites. I cold see living here if I can sort out the long term visa requirements. Nice video by the way!
Thank you for sharing your kind thoughts. Makes us feel warm and fuzzy inside. Come back soon.
I will be coming back for sure! Thanks for commenting! 😀
Im a Singaporean and absolutely love this video! Yes for us Malay Muslims, KL is a halal food haven and it is hard to keep in shape here! In fact, my family is going up north for a foodie tour soon!
"The only bad dish I've had is fish and chips in a hotel which gave me food poisoning". LOL
😂 It's true! The fish must have been old, because I've never been so sick in my life!
Sue them sir

Chef Ramsay have to check that hotel...
A Brit having Fish and Chips in Malaysia and then getting food poisoning LOL. Poor Darren. He needs to come home and get some proper Fish and Chips from his local chippy.
If you look in history native malays they’re nice to foreigners. But if foreigners trying to take away what is rightfully theirs they will fight till the end. Ask the portuguese, dutch,british east indies, japan etc etc.
The way you talked about nasi lemak is like you're in love with it. 💖
I am in love with, have you seen my Nasi Lemak video? 😂
@@remotedarren oh! Not yet. I'll look it up later! ❤️👍🏻
Hi Remote Darren. Try
• Nasi Lemak Saleha at Sri Rampai Setapak, KL
• Nasi Lemak Turbo at Wangsa Maju sec 10, KL
We always welcome you back bro. We as a malaysian are always wanted to help the tourists. Cus we got this feeling of responsibility to help the tourists, when you got your answers, we felt that we've done our job as a Malaysian and proud to be one. You need to tell your friends bout this, dont be afraid to ask cus we dont charge you anything for answers like they did in thailand. Haha 😂
Haha, that's another reason why I love Malaysia - don't feel like that you are being ripped off all the time like in some countries we won't mention. Thanks for the comment 😀
I'll miss your SE Asia vids, but looking forward to seeing where you visit next
Yes, I'll miss it too. So much to explore and discover walking around the streets and neighbourhoods. Looking forward to my travels over the next 6 months, so will be revealing more about that soon.
It really touched my heart when you shared the story about your neighbour giving you the tray of eggs. I was a teenager when I followed Dad to live in Malaysia. There were only the two of us and Dad works offshore A LOT back then. So I was left to my own devices. I WAS NEVER LEFT FOR WANTING when it comes to food! Every single day, pretty much every single meal, all my neighbouring aunties and uncles will give me the food they made for their family. Every single day, without fail, without my Dad arranging anything, without me asking, without us paying or giving anything back. I still live with that spirit of giving until today. They have not only made me feel loved and welcomed, they have also instilled in me the spirit of giving which I hope I will pass on to my kids someday! Oh, and YAYYY NASI LEMAK!!
Great story, thank you for taking the time to share this. You should check out my latest Nasi Lemak video if you haven't already :D
You already looks like an local malaysian guy ... Hahaha lepak lepak
I love Malaysia too. I cried when my contract ended. I hope to go back some day.
Thank you sir! Indeed Malaysia is underrated.. Yet heavenly to the discerning! Truly Asia, paradise on earth and foodie capital of the world!
Malaysians should be more thankful for public transports. Most tourists that make vlogs say that public transport is one of the pros of Malaysia. We need to appreciate it more
You are such a nice man! Just wanted to give you a thumbs up for that. Happy and above all, safe travels 🙂
Thank you Karen, with so much negativity in the world, felt some positivity on why I love Malaysia was needed.
@@alicezakarian4827 bodo
@@alicezakarian4827 What are you even talking about. I don't understand a thing, just some wrongly spelled stupid and rubbish. You made a sensitive Malaysian say bodo yo.
I agree, I'm in Penang at the moment and just last week, I went to watch the sunset in a beach bar/restaurant and I had a bit of money around 70 ringgit but asked if I could pay via card, one of the staff must have misunderstood me and said yes, so after my bill came it was around 120 Ringgit, I gave my card and they said they didn't take it. Solution: expecting to have to go to a ATM , they said just send us the money online when you get home. Imagine that trust elsewhere! Blew me away, I actually paid online via Transferwise app in the end at the bar .
Thanks for loving my country!
everyone is touched by you when you talk about malaysian food. believe in my judgment, it is true love. 😘
Thank you for loving Malaysia. Malaysians love you too. We are happy to share all we have with all who are like you.. come back soon..
Nice sharing 👍, I am a mixed, from Chinese - Malay family in Kelantan. Actually, it is one of the old tradisional culture, the people will welcome others the most, especially when the tourist act politely & nicely, that is what they will get in return. The local will really appreciate outsider with good manners, what you give is what you'll get back in return, especially when we are talking about rural, village people, they are more nicer compare to those who live in the urban cities.
Hey, thank you for watching the video, you should check out my latest videos, I am currently in Kuching, Sarawak.
loved this video Darren. I'm really glad to know that this place brings so much happiness to you. my fave part of the video was all the food you would cut to when describing them lol made me hungry maaaan. This style of video is always one of my faves because it's like a mini documentary with a lot of information and great visuals to compliment them. The journey may be over, but there's plenty more ahead right? Very excited to see what else is in store for the future.
Hey, thanks for the feedback. Glad you enjoyed the video, and I plan to do more of this type of video, providing I can think of interesting topics to talk about and have the b-roll. No, the journey isn't over - just a 4 week pit-stop in the UK, and then new adventures commence. I'll be revealing the route soon, although you follow me on Twitter, so, I've already given it away 😆
Thank you so much for the kind comment. Yes, Malaysia is a beautiful country to be in. I migrated but decided to retire in Malaysia since my aging mum doesn't want to go over to where I migrated. I am glad that I came back... food, people and cost of living very very affordable.
Hi Sir!
Im from Pakistan, I will visit malaysia about after 10 days.
I do agree with you. Malaysia is a wonderful and friendly country. Been there about 20 times, the first time in 1997. Will go back when it's possible.
I really don’t know what it is but I always find myself looking for you as soon as I come on UA-cam. You Sir have definitely inspired me. Thank you
Thanks, Grant. Glad you are enjoying the videos, and that I've helped inspire you. 😀
I agree with you Darren. I am also a Brit married to a Malaysian Chinese and we have visited Malaysia every year since 1980. We have our own condo in Klebang, Melaka but travel all over Malaysia. Lovely people and great food. Who needs to go anywhere else.
Love your sit down vlogs don’t come home yet it snowed at 7am today and tonight it’s going to be -10
Oh happy days . :)
Thanks Pete, I think I might start doing one sit down vlog a week, talking about a particular topic. As for returning home, sadly, on Saturday I will be flying back home via Dubai. Make sure the runway is ready for me 😂
I agree it’s the people that made me love the place..
Totally agree, and more so since visiting other countries where the locals have been unfriendly!
Thanks for loving malaysia. As a Malaysian we always welcome you. Food is incredible here and Nawi is the dishes we missed very much after travelling.
I think Malaysians / Asians are generally friendly people. We will try to understand, with patience, foreigners who don't speak our language. When I visited some countries of another continent, people just ignored me when I don't speak their language. LOL. Malaysia, is especially blessed because we don't have natural disasters such as typhoon, volcanoes, earthquakes etc.
Thanks for loving Malaysia🤣Ain't I proud to be a Malaysian😉👍 I hope you will visit Malaysia again😁 I also hope more people will visit Malaysia😏 Everyone is welcome👍
I just got back from 3 years in Singapore and realize I did not spend nearly enough time in Malaysia. I will when I visit next winter. Thanks for this video!
Thanks for watching, Craig, and yes, you have to experience Malaysia, it's a fantastic country.
Thank you for loving Malaysia! It's great to know that you met nice people and experiencing good things. Thank you for sharing positive thoughts about our country.. and we apologize if anything inconvenient happened to you during your travel here
Everything was positive about my stay. Thanks for the comment 😀

I moved to Malaysia a few months back for work. I repositioned here with a view to retiring in the Region, Malaysia is up there for early retirement, indeed my Thai friends go as far as saying cost of living is cheaper than Bangkok. It's a hidden gem.
Its nice to know that others love malaysia and love our food... Welcome and enjoy your stay hope you come back more
How does it feel to be white, which based on what I know is a significant minority of Malaysia. Do you find any problems with this and finding friends there etc.
Even locals love eating nasi lemak and crave for it everyday (yep me) 😂
Me too buddy :)
You lucky mannn...your currency can afford you stay n live harmony and peaceful for lonnnnnngggg period.....no harm mannnn its a fact hahahaha.... in his beautiful country..come to sabah..it much more happening...sabah is part of this country..you will be crazy if you come here..l😀😁😂😃😄😅.....since you are here...go to urban life..you will be amaze with it...mount kinabalu is waiting for you mannn....come over...

Lucky you! Make sure you explore it if you can. Thanks for the comment! 😀
Me too I love KUala Lumpur because of the cheap stuff and nice tourists spots just within the city. I am an expats.
The best bits of KL are away from the tourist spots in my opinion but glad you enjoy the city too!
Remote Darren i haven't explore outside KL. Maybe soon. Hehe.
This video speaks volume bout your whole self being in Msia. It’s truly overwhelming to hear all those warm opinions bout my country from an outsider (who knows you might be an insider in a few more years here) I wish you will never get bored of our very humble and small place. Please take yourself to explore Borneo (Sabah & Sarawak) as well, bet you will love it on a diff level! Well Wherever you are Darren, please take care! :)
Malaysia food is definitely one of its charm that attracts everyone, even a local like myself. We came from the land of Sarawak and coming here to live in KL (for work), we met so many lovely colleagues who are from Penang, Kelantan, Malacca, Johor. etc. Everyday, we learn something new about the food that they talk about from their hometown and vice versa. We talk about food in Sarawak (kolo mee, sarawak laksa, umai, ayam pansuh, etc) and they tell us about nasi dagang, kuih badak berendam, etc.
I believe that every food has a story and always, people are happy to share their story of their favourite food with us.
Oh yeah, thank you for sharing your story about having the lovely nasi lemak.
And you're always welcome here in Malaysia!
I often wake up thinking about Nasi Lemak for breakfast, but then I realise I'm in Europe! 😂
@@remotedarren sorry to here that..hope every europe country have a nasi lemak stall..
Hey, great video. Plan on moving to KL the end of this year and have been doing research for accommodation as I will be living there for a year or more. Was wondering what the name is of your apartment complex?
Malaysians are friendly ppl 👍. Haha. Next time if I meet u, I buy u eggs 😁
Haha, I love eggs, especially on Nasi Lemak 😁
