    Hi Chris, to add:
    That lady who sold you water - she said she came from SARAWAK.
    Sarawak fyi is a state of Malaysia but on Borneo Island. The other state is SABAH. I heard you say you plan to visit the Borneo states. That's where I am too. Welcome to Sarawak in the future & might look you up then.

    In towns near the sea and river estuaries, you can actually see the fishermen returning from the sea super early in the morning and loading all the fishes and seafoods to be distributed to the wet markets in their states. My town in Johor has one such market as we're very closed to the sea, so people come as early as 4am to get the freshest of fishes and seafoods to cook for the breakfast and lunches. When I used to live in Kuantan, there used to be small shops opens at 12am selling cheap meals especially Nasi Dagang specifically for the fishermen that returning to the shores.

    The sellers use opium seeds (kaskas) in their cooking to give it a 'kick'. The use of the word 'ganja' here implies that people are addicted to the food.
    2 years back police raided a place I've been to many times (not in KL) because they felt 'weird' & sleepy after they had lunch. They found that the staff had some cooking 'herbs' but nothing illegal 😂

    The old woman where you buy mineral water at the beginning of the video says she is from Sarawak. Sarawak borders Sabah and Brunei, part of Borneo.
    Water melon in Malay wee call it Tembikai. Sepang is the district located in the southern part of the State of Selangor.
    Nasi Ganja was first introduced in Ipoh, Perak. Basically it is Nasi Kandar as found in Muslim Indian restaurants. Named Nasi Ganja, supposedly you will be addicted to eating more. It is a title deliberately created by the seller because most people know what cannabis is but in Malaysia many people do not know its advantages in medicine. Ganja has been mentioned in the ancient Malay historical text "Sulalatus Salatin, which tells the life of the Sultan, magnates and people of Malacca which is believed to have been written in the 15th century. Among the things written, "You already know that ganja is intoxicating, why do you eat it too,"
