The ones who don't understand English are mostly foreigners who work as guards, from Nepal, helpers and waiters or waitresses from Indonesia, Bangladesh, Pakistani etc. They blend in well with the locals and visitors tend to think they are Malaysians too.
I'm old now and I've been to Malaysia quite a lot of times, I live in Uk. Yes Malaysia has always been a lovely country to visit, I love the mix of cultures, Indian, Malay and Chinese, hence Malaysian food. My favorite has always been Malay food though. Also finding that often the best food is from the lower priced outlets in most of the countries I've been to. You have an interest in Languages and Malay seems a fun language to speak, but I guess that English is the only common language there so they're all going to speak English.
I once studied in Sussex for 2 years. Did part time teaching in Sussex schools once a week to earn some money. When students know I am from Malaysia, they want to learn the Malay Language.
There's no harm in learning Malay. Its very easy to learn too. And no, malay is still the most common language being used here. Unless you only mingle with expats or city folks (usually non malays)
To know Malay as in numbers, greetings, directions will be enough to enjoy staying there multifold.
@@Aeybiseediy went Malaysians visit cities overseas they like to buy lots of souvenirs. We find bangladeshis in Paris and Rome who used to work in Malaysia. The work in souvenir shops and speak Malay to attract us. Shop assistants in Cairo, Mecca and Madina can speak Malay too.
Nope, Malay is the common languange of the people but English is extensively use. Malaysian will always try to accomodate to the person there are talking to. For example if you are foreigner, people will approach you in English. If you are chinese, people will approach you in chinese or chinese slang Malay or English.
yes so trueee! In big city like KL, ipoh, JB most of us can speak english but in the country side part they can speak really basic English so learning bahasa melayu helps a lot to be able to talk with the locals.
The QR code starts to be used during convid, Its less touching. you can ask for the paper menu if necessary, most of them have it saved.😊
Just wanna say like this
In term of natural disaster, Malaysia is quite safe... safer than Japan... Becoz of geographical factor... Alhamdulillah...
Yea, Japan has typhoon, heavy rain, earthquake,etc...
Hi! I am impressed by your fluent english. I guess you will catch up with the malay language in no time too. Happy to hear that you are happy in Malaysia. Enjoy your stay!
Mantap bang. Sekarang nak dekat hujung tahun, nak masuk musim hujan. Sediakan payung sebelum hujan. Enjoy your stay here bro.
Thank you for speaking out the beauty of Malaysia. Yes, Malaysia is really a great country to visit, it's multi racial, great varieties of food, beautiful landscapes, sea, mountain , countryside, city ....you name it, Malaysia has it .... We welcome you. ...
We got 4 season actually. As you there's:
1. Hot
2. Very Hot
3. Monsoon (rain)
But you can't forget we have "FRUIT SEASON" as for about 2-4 month our local fruit's tree will be fruitful especially Rambutan, Durian, Manggis and more
Im not sure this is called an Official Season la bro... internationally.. haha
I like your definition of 4 seasons. That's what I tell my friends from overseas. Hahaha.
U can prioritize the pedestrians by pressing a high lite for a second. That's show u let the pedestrian to pass by. Btw Malaysian pedestrians also have the power of stopping the car in certain area. We just put up our hand to ask the car to stop. That we call The Power of The Hand
Great video, Sho san! The 10 topics you examined were well chosen and provided a fascinating insight into living in Malaysia. The QR codes at the restaurants and the driverless trains were especially interesting, and I'm glad to know that Kuala Lumpur is so technically advanced. I can see why you're enjoying living there on many levels. Great editing in the video, too. It made it fun to watch. I'm looking forward to watching more new content from your channel. Arigatougozaimasu! 👍
Arigatougozaimasu! Glad you enjoyed it!
You look & sound like Malaysian, so I believe Malaysian tend to speak Malay to you especially when you want to order or pay something...
1. QR code is very innovative but I still prefer an option for physical paper printed menu. Japan has miniature dish for everything. That is very helpful and can generate employment in miniature crafting.
Well the QR menus usually used in the mamak restaurant, and that place is usually very overcrowded. More costumers more of the possibility you gonna neglected
Wow you explained it so well thank you for all the compliments
Regards to punctuality, Malaysia need learn more from Japan..
very good information provided on the contrasting situation here as compared to Japan! Thank you Sho san, for the sharing ☺️
Arigatou, debbie san! Thank you for the comment. Hope you liked it!
It is great that you give more positives points rather to focus on the negative sides when comparing to Japan. Thank you..🥰
About crossing road issue, you can just put one of your hand up like want to give them hi-5✋ as a sign of ask them to slow down and stop so you can cross the road. 'The power of hand' need to use in these kind of situation
Thank you for loving, visiting and staying in our country, Malaysia always welcome you , love you 🇲🇾😄👍👍♥️♥️♥️
If you want to cross the road, you can use "the power of hand". You can raise your hand and if you want to stop the car. The car will sure stop when they see it. Only applicable to car, not for motocycle. They will not stop.
good point sir.. i appreciate your point of view
Yeah I also like looking at the pictures in a paper menu. But the QR Code menu has its advantages: contactless and thus more hygienic (especially during Covid); can easily update items and prices in the menu; can conveniently place your orders without having to wait for the waiter to serve you, etc.
2. Taking bus and train in Japan is very much convenient and much less costly. And there is the Japanese culture of walking. Love it.
Thank you very much for the positives about Malaysia. You are most WELCOME Bro. God Bless U Always.
Thank you, nice video😊👍❤️🇲🇾
Enjoy Malaysia
Thank you !
Glad you like and enjoy living in Malaysia. Take care and stay healthy okay. Greeting from Sarawak☺️
terima kasih for sharing your experience living here in malaysia, especially for highlighting the positive sides that have made your life here more enjoyable. i totally agree with your point about malaysia being a car society that gives priority to cars instead of pedestrians. kuala lumpur, especially, falls far behind cities like singapore and bangkok in providing well-planned, safe and secure pathways for pedestrians. it's quite suicidal, actually, to choose to walk your way across kuala lumpur. i'm curious to know your thoughts on the state of our cleanliness, or rather, lack of cleanliness though.
thank you for the detailed explanations! In terms of cleanliness, i saw some microwaves or clothes thrown on a street in the countryside. but that’s not the city area and i think overall cleanliness of kl is quite okay
@@ShoJapan just to highlight you on the pedestrian issues when crossing the roads at the traffic lights junctions in Malaysia so you may cross the roads safely here in the future. There are actually pedestrian crossings that prioritise the pedestrians to walk first here in the cities and towns in Malaysia like you have a sign showing to "WALK" but not as many, maybe like in Japan or the United States.
Here at the traffic lights junctions where there are no specific pedestrian crossing signage, we Malaysian people when crossing the roads at these junctions, we are "guided" by the color of the traffic light itself. The light for the pedestrians to cross the road is green, same applies to all, like red light to stop. When the green light is lighted for the pedestrians to walk across (it means the green light that is facing you), automatically the traffic light that's facing the cars will turned red, this makes the cars to stop and the pedestrians can now safely cross the roads. In other words the traffic system here apply a fair and equal priority to both the pedestrians and the cars. Just follow the color of the traffic lights.
I'm not saying that this is better than other countries' system. I saw in the UK when I was there years ago that cars gave way to pedestrians even though the traffic lights on the car's way was green but it happened only when there were not many traffics at that particular junction. If you do this here in Malaysia, somebody's car behind you will be honking like hell for not following the traffic lights rules. In other words, in Malaysia we were already accustomed to be "guided" by the color of the traffic lights to cross the roads rather than the "WALK" signage.
In big cities and town, crossing the roads NOT at the traffic lights junctions are prohibited and you maybe subjected to summonses. Those who cross at non junction roads, they cross at their own risks.
I hope this may help to unravel your confusion when crossing any roads in Malaysia. Just look at the color of the traffic lights facing your side, if it's green you walk, if amber you take caution and if red you stop. Cheers bro....😁😆😄❤
Fun Fact: Why is Malaysia the most obese country in Asia? Cz we love to eat and we don’t walk. It doesn’t mean we’re lazy, we’re just rich. Lol. An average of two cars per household in Malaysia.
Yokoso Malaysia! I've been visiting Japan at least 6 times before covid and I love Japan. Looking forward to revisit again. Probably to Hokkaido.
Sounds goodd!
I agreed with perception that Japan should be advanced in electronic payment when they’re advance in robotics and electronics.
When I first visited Japan, I was very surprised that we have to bring a lot of cash to make payment/manual booking through phone.
My culture shock is your norm. Your culture shock is my norm here 😅
good point!! which part of Japan did you go??
@@ShoJapan i went to Hokkaido and Kansai.
e-payment methods were in it's infancy when I went to Japan in 2016. but I was happy to know that I could pay with IC cards. I quite enjoyed buying drinks from the vending machine using my icoca card lol. this method is still quite new in Malaysia. Back in 2017 I've only seen a few vending machines that accepted touch n go cards but payment via debit cards was quite the norm.
Hi! My name is Elsa, I want permission to react videos from your channel, I'll put the link to the original video later in the description of the video. Thank you🙏
Thank you for asking! Sure! Looking forward to it😁
Malaysia is a lightning nation, as it has one of the highest number of strikes in the world. Kuala Lumpur’s lightning strikes are spectacular, violent, and very frequent.
The lightning strike in Kuala Lumpur has a very common occurrence and frequency due to its tropical climate and location.
Kuala Lumpur has an average of 240 days of thunderstorms in a year which is the highest rate in Asia, and it enhances the sillohuete of the skyscrapers dramatically.
Oh my... you're very kind Sho san! I appreciate your effort doing the video to describe our lovely country🤗 I have a few japanese friends and they're very kind and humble too I really hope I had a chance to visit Japan in the future to learn the cultures and get to know you people❣️
Welcome! Japan is opening up its border recently. Hope you can visit there!
Come to Sarawak.!!! There’s lot of foods you can try here 😊
Very informative. Like the comment about the usage of English. It will help others to mange their expectation. No country is perfect
*manage
I went to Shinjuku, Shibuya, Asakusa etc recently..you can speak English fluently..during my stay in Tokyo its hard to communicate since English is not their second language..your English is awesome!..u know what? I fall in love with Tokyo..haha..in Tokyo the public transport is very efficient, punctual, there are some halal restaurants there, i love how dedicated Japanese to their works, very discipline, the toilets are very clean, i used the IC card i.e pasmo to purchase items and pay for trains..teamLab, Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo Skytree etc are totally awed me..btw we Malaysian love to go oversea, same goes to Japanese love to go outside their homeland just to know other people's culture and foods!..due to low currency of Malaysian Ringgit, Malaysian has to bring lots of money to shop and buy foods in Tokyo, the second expensive city in the world if im not mistaken..one more thing i love Tokyo because there are many zebra crossing which made me easy to across the road safely.. Arigato Gozaimas
Yes, Tokyo is an expensive city indeed. But many attractive places as you mentioned!
Thank you for the great video, your opinions of the things you experienced in Malaysia. May you have a great and pleasant stay in Malaysia 🇲🇾❤️. Take care and stay safe always 😉✌️
Thanks a lot!!

3. Wet
4. Very Wet
5. Fruit Season (durian)
Recently we added flood season too 😅😁 which inclusive as part of very wet season.
Yea flood last year was terrible. Hope everything is okay
English is the common second language here BUT I go to one of the oldest schools in Malaysia and they offer languages such as Japanese and French. I think the Japanese level taught at my school is around N5 to N4 level of fluency. I don't know about other schools in Malaysia. There's even judo and kendo club offered here at my school for curricular activities!
Wow interesting! thanks for the info! I learned Judo at school too haha
In Malaysia, all we want are "murah, cepat & mudah"
Yes, most guards are from Nepal. They pickup the Malay Language easily.
In TVG if you watch the movie before 12pm the price is cheaper too. Around RM10 or RM9.
Thank for your thought & insights about Malaysia. Oh your English is pretty good Bro!👑✨👍You even learned some Malay... good for you!
Thank you!!😁 Recently, I'm focusing more on shorts, so check them out too!
Welcome to Malaysia. have a wonderful day.
Thank you!
Keep practising the good traits of Japanese culture in Malaysia such as giving priority to pedestrians and disposing recyclable items. You can just give hand gesture to the pedestrians if you want them to go first. Malaysians in general need to practise and learn good culture from people of developed country.
prioritizing cars over pedestrian is just common sense. Drivers pay road tax and license, and there is no such tax for pedestrians. So it makes sense that cars have the right of way.
@@sallieceelee5660 it also make sense that you have never lived in a developed country. It also make sense that your mindset belong to a third world country. Do you mean that all car owners don't even walk for a meter on the road? How about walking from his or her car to the front door of a hypermarket or a mall? All car drivers must not slow down or stop for pedestrian when they are walking from parking lot to the front door of the mall or hypermarket.
@@stmpo5595 "developed country" is a loaded and subjective term. For example, there are "developed country" where mass school shooting is commonplace (USA). There are "developed country" where their museums shamelessly display stolen artifacts (UK). There are "developed country" where despite the image of politeness, mass stabbing occurs (Canada). So the term "developed country" is a problematic term which do not reflect the situation on the ground.
"All car drivers must not slow down or stop for pedestrian when they are walking from parking lot to the front door of the mall or hypermarket." Thank you for the suggestion. We'll consider that.
@@sallieceelee5660 Mass shooting and stabbing also occur in poorer developing countries. I understand the story of "the grape is sour" as Malaysia fails to achieve Vision 2020 in becoming a developed nation.
@@stmpo5595 well, the country will never be able to achieve whatever vision it sets itself for, if this is the attitude of its people... sometimes, considering the attitude of Malaysians, I think they deserve whatever mediocre leaders they have now... Leaders are a reflection of the people who voted for them...
TERBAIK SHO SAN 👍💖🇲🇾
Hello Shao Jap how are you, welcome to Malaysia hopefully you very enjoyed in Malaysia.🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾👍👍
a new subscriber here.. Stay safe always wherever you are
4. Food especially halal food are more and more in Japan. So I am very grateful.
9:00 as a Malaysian I have to agree with this, KL is a city built for cars. I hate the idea of having car is a necessity here. Thanks to that they build more highways lmao. Not to mention the poor city planning. KL can be easily flooded especially during rainy season. Malaysia is a veryy good country (the people are nice) except the poor governance. Goodluck with your studies!
3. Puntuality for mrt and lrt mostly because the have their own rails. In Japan, I observed; almost all types of trains use the same rail including shinkansen. Hence, less costly to build new rails. The puntuality then is very crucial on the multitypes of trains hence the drivers on board to monitor the schedule.
Currently, the rent in Kuala Lumpur is quit affordable by international standard and the apartment is quite spacious but with the plan of raising the minimum wages and minimizing broad subsidies but focus on targeted subsidies in order to make the country into high income nation by 2025, everything could change in the future even though a lot of people doubt how doable it is by 2025. Also, I heard somewhere that, Kuala Lumpur is the capital that has most thunderstorms in the world.
yeah its true facts that KL city is the most received thunderstorm in world.
And also flash flood
I experiance the lightning boom in kl for the 1st time when I visit. there are so loud and scary that made me sit and stand and walked around inside the house. ftd fact stated kl received the loudest lightning in the world if I correct
Hi Sho-san. Just want to inform you that KL is the lightning capital of the world. That's why you will encounter lots of thunder and lightning when its rain.
And talking about language, there are many Malaysians that can speak Japanese fluently. Mainly because they studied in Japan. I have handful of my friends that can speak Japanese as their 3rd or 4th languages.
Nice vid bro. Im Malaysian!!
Done subcribe
Awesomeee!! Thankss!!
Naah. For those Malaysians who mocks our own country.. See for yourself. Japan are the most advanced country in Asia. Even they don't have Grab and other necessities like Malaysia do. We're pretty lucky.
Yes, vehicles on the roads are King here in Malaysia which I'm not very fond about Malaysia. Pedestrians usually have to let the cars to pass first before you can cross the road which supposed to be the opposite. I only realised that it's not the norm when I travelled to other countries.
So remember to look out for vehicles on the road before crossing. Enjoy your time and stay safe!!
thank you!
prioritizing cars over pedestrian is just common sense. Drivers pay road tax and license, and there is no such tax for pedestrians. So it makes sense that cars have the right of way.
You are amazing
Hello! Long time no see:)
@@ShoJapan I miss your videos. Thank you so much for answering
@@kimeunhi7315 I’ll try to upload more often!

Can you hear, can you hear the thunder ?
You better get cover...
🎶🎵🎼🎶🎵🎼
Hai sho Jap Selamat Datang ke Malaysia 🇲🇾,semoga anda gembira Selama berada di Malaysia
Hai, saya gembira berada di malaysia. thank you!
Welcome to Malaysia bro.
Dear Sho,
Just came across yr tube...enjoy the trip...
Maybe you have been to other countries esp Malacca, penang, Langkawi, Trengganu, ,etc
Gd comment abt Malaysia from yr view...gd job n useful to other tourists, foreigners...🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷👍👍👍
I dont know what to comment , i love you
nah its normal to hear thunder storm so close😂
You speak very good English as a Japanese.
There are padestrian crossings in malaysia especially in KL, lots of them. There are also many pedestrian bridges to cross roads...i wonder which part of malaysia you went to???
Japan.. ❤️❤️❤️
👍
Nice sharing .. wish you can speak Bahasa Malaysia properly 😊
Fun Fact: Kuala Lumpur is the most thunderstruck city in the Asia!
Me too. I don't like using qr code to order food. Not very convenient to me.
Truee....paper menu is the fastest one..just left pencil and paper and tick menu you want..poor for senior citizen their not up to date with technology..im 60yrs old btw..
is Summer everyday in Malaysia, people reluctant to shop outdoor🥵. therefore people likes to go to indoor - Mall.🥶
during ramadhan month , if u go bazaar...there's a lot yummy food ( but dont buy so much ) ....sedap~~~since i muslim i must wait during magrib time to eat...hahaha
I gotta tryy
Condo rent here cost rm1k n above, so anyone rent there are consider rich to the local's eyes...
Welome to malaysia
For the ease of carrying I have a small phone(by current day standard) so the QR menu is a bit hard to browse especially when you are first time to that restaurant and wasnt too sure what they had
Hi Handsome guy!
As i know, there are option for normal lane (more stop)/Fast lane (less stop) of train in Japan but Malaysia dont have normal/fast lane choice.Am i correct, pls correct if wrong
I think QR code menu is only more common in KL? In Perak QR code menu still not that common.
As a Malaysian I'm also not very fond of the qr code menu.. mostly because my internet data is not always smooth. Sometimes the website or apps are lagging/glitching too. Its more of a hassle than a convenient. But maybe if you're using a newer phone with expensive data plan, these things will feel like an extra convenience... Also I would like to add that free wifi is almost non existent in Malaysia.. if you run out of data you're gonna have a pretty hard time with these contactless technology here.. even paying for parking in malls.
free wifi in fast food chains like McD & KFC are not bad tho. good enough to watch youtube sometimes. most big malls has free wifi too but it's pretty much useless 😅
Ya, me too 😅
@@Ruriko.Y From my experience is not really abt the speed but 'free' wifi are always password protected or locked behind registration for something. when you need to use the internet urgently its not very convenient to ask for the password or to register something first.
RM30 Umobile GX30 prepaid with unlimited data plan at 6Mbps for 30 days is pretty affordable.
Japanese taxis rates are 10 X higher lol but the drivers are polite and respectful
nah crossing road in malaysia very easy.....you only need eye and hand only
Yeah. Just rise your hand and the traffic will stop no matter what because our hand sign is the most powerful here in Malaysia (generally means that you gonna cross the road no matter what!)
that only work if it isn't a big highway/road where cars usually drive too fast to realize the pedestrians' hand sign
Nice 🗿👍🏻
We use hand to cross the road hahaha
Avoid the KTM Komuter line train network. It is the worse.
Yes, English is very commonly use in the city area, and in local area, English is not very good but they understand simple and basic English. And i love it when foreigners who live here learn Malay, i mean, it is great to add another language to our skill set.
Plus Malay is our national language, learning it can greatly helps you get to know the real Malaysia, the cultures, food, people... Just be careful wherever you go, Malaysia is safe, but danger is everywhere,
SELAMAT MAJU JAYA! (ALL THE BEST)
as an Malaysian, i totally agree with u of prefer using the paper menu, QR code menu is fucking annoying to be honest, they think is smart ideal but fucking no
U forgot about Durian session🤣
Terima kasih komen yg baik tentang malaysia,dan sebagai rasa hormat saya,saya akan subs..👍👍👍👍
sup ekor,,rendang,,ketupat,,lemang,,😘try food hari raya,,
Man, your English is very good compared to many Japanese. I wonder if it has something to do with your education or living situation?
Oh and, welcome to Malaysia and study well~
We don't bite. Usually. Hehe
thanks a lot!!
👍👍👍
www your a Unkle Roger super fan
haha yep
Ya i think the car rules in Malaysia is not good, even if there's a zebra crossing don't expect the car will stop for you.
Not an expert on movies price in Malaysia. Watch One Piece red recently and I paid RM10 for the tickets. Maybe because I brought it online. Idk.
Malaysia one of the highest number of lightning in the world...
