This channel aims to introduce different countries and cultures around the world, while mainly but not exclusively focusing on Malaysia. My goal is to create an organic community and a friendly and welcoming environment for everybody.

I try to stay away from controversial topics, while also being respectful about other's point of view.
It's expensive for foreigners as well that's why we just walked by when the gentleman in the video interacted with us. Originally I just wanted to video the led wall at the entrance than he offered us a full tour. How awesome is that 👏 😍
Welcome to KL, Malaysia. Hope that you guys have had a good time and a pleasant stay. USD100 is quite a lot for a day's budget. You guys did a lot of activities in the city.
Hi, thank you 🙂 Indeed it's quite a lot of money, but we tried to go through the eyes of a tourist who might not know about the cheaper places or have just 1 or 2 days in the City 🙂
@@JustLazloOfficial Hi there. There are quite a number of attractions that are sometimes free and charge very low entrance fee. If you maximize this, then you'll realize that USD100 can last for many days in KL. Some of the free attractions are the National Mosque, the Merdeka Square, the KL Gallery, the National Monument, the National Art Gallery, KLCC Park, the KL Botanical Garden, the Lake Titiwangsa Garden, the River of Life, the KLCC symphony fountain show etc. Of course, there are also many attractions that charge quite a lot like going up to the skybridge and Level 86 of the Petronas Twin Tower 2, Acquaria, the Philharmonic Concert Hall, the KL Tower, the Islamic Art Museum, the Eco Canopy Walk, the rooftop bars, and quite affordable entrance fee at the National Museum, the National Planetarium, the National Science Centre, the National Zoo, the KL Bird Park, the KL Butterfly Park, the Textile Museum etc. Above all, the most important thing is that you guys enjoy your day exploration. 😀
Thank you for your comments and suggestions. Well, honestly we’ve visited already the places you have mentioned above. ☺️ But I believe there are still beautiful places we haven’t been through. This 100$ challenge is an experiment if foreigners from Europe and US can survive. 🤭 Thank you ☺️
I'm a white guy and I will admit the asian men white women couples are very beautiful on average compared to white men asian women mostly because with WMAF the guy is so much older than the woman.

🙏 With great respect to All Sides , based on unbiased chronological sequences of historical events >>> The Göbekli Tepè Ancient Civilization estimated to be flourished in the now Türkiye region some 12,000+ years ago , the Ancient Omec & Mayan Civilizations existed some 10,000+ years ago in Central America , followed by the Aztec , etc., The Ancient Egyptian Pharaoh in power some 7,600 years ago , both the Indian Hindus Empires & Middle Kingdom of China Feudal / Taoist Dynasties ruled some 5,500 , the Roman Empires ruled some 4,500 years ago , Then Buddhism illuminated the World some 2,600 years ago from Northern India & followed by the emergence of Judaism & Christianity some 2024 years ago & lastly Islam was established some 1446Hijrah years ago in the Middle East >>> Based on these chronological sequences of events , we would know that , many South Eastern Asian Countries were used to be ruled by Hindu , Taoist , Buddhist & Christian Rulers before Islam brought in by the Arab merchants via trades & commerce ... So not surprising many European , Indian & Chinese influences can be found in Malaysia as these Foreparents started many Judiciary Laws , Policing , Commerce & Town Openings had European , Hindu , Taoism & Buddhist & later joined by Islamic influences into Malaysia multi-ethnicity & multi-cultural heritages we can witness today in modern Malaysia! Anyway , we all have Mixed Bloodlines from our Foreparents mixed marriages from their intercontinental migrations since many Millennia ago ... 😊🙏🕯🌷🌿🌏✌💜🕊🇲🇾🇸🇬
Hidden? i beg your pardon but there are more chinese influence in Malaysia now than its original native influence which is the Malay influence and culture. The malays were sided away and the chinese monopolize everything in Malaysia now . From the media, businesses, signboards, socially, tourism and even housing. The Malaysian chinese in malaysia also rejected the country National Language which is the Malay Language. So, Visiting Malaysia nowadays is like visiting HK or taiwan or even China. The really hidden culture in Malaysia now are the Malay influence. You wont find Malay influence in big cities in KL or penang. Most of big cities in Malaysia are monopolized by the chinese . You can find the original Malaysian malay culture and influence in villages.
Good to know 🙂 I always thought the Museum Negara, Perdana Botanical Gardens, Putrajaya Mosque, Merdeka Square, Masjid Jamek and the National Planetarium were all Malay influenced, but I might be wrong.
Great video! Thank you for showing the Malaysian Chinese heritage. I think the video title “hidden Chinese influence” is not accurate. Inside your video, you talked about it as the heritage which is more accurate. And most Malaysian Chinese came to Malaysia prior to 1949, so the current CCP flag in the video doesn’t represents Malaysian Chinese connection. In fact the Chinese heritage here is much older than the CCP. Also a tip, Malaysia Chinese is one of the most misunderstood population, so don’t be surprised if you get corrected in the comments. For decades Malaysian Chinese feel like a second class citizen due to political reasons, so many don’t like to be associated as “hidden”. It feels misrepresented. 9 out of the top 10 billionaires in Malaysia are Malaysian Chinese. If you research a bit deeper you will find that the Malaysian Chinese is not hidden or just an influence, they are the economy powerhouse of Malaysia. Try create a video that represents the Malaysian Chinese better and you will get a lot of positive response. Good luck in growing your channel!
Thank you for your comment. The title was selected with VidIQ which is an SEO tool, it was recommended by it's score and I found it the most fitting to the video. Yes CCP flag not representing Chinese people, however it's a stock video and most people worldwide can recognise it (the flag), so it was an inevitable choice. I don't identify Malay Chinese people with the CCP needless to say. I heard about the story that Chinese were discriminated for many years. Fun fact in the UK and the USA the highest earning ethnic group is either Chinese or Indian as well, in terms of billionaires I don't have data 🙂 Everyday I try my best, thank you 🙂
Theres no pure Malay, Indian, bumi etc anymore. If we Malaysians take DNA tests pretty sure Chinese ancestry will show up. Because mix marriages is extremely common in southeast Asia.
Oh , no ! I don't know how we do it, we are quite pure in pedigree. Even the Indians make a distinction between Tamils , Hindi speakers , Singhs and Indian Muslims. Not to mention the Sinhalese (Sri Lankans) and the Ceylonese Tamils. And through all this , we forgot the Malaylams(inner India). It may be hilarious to Westerners that the parents are comming together to "discourage" the mixed couple. (Like chase them down. They're prepared to elope. ) Like they're willing to work hand in hand in less than 24 hours of knowing each other. We've all seen or heard of this. And maybe , maybe this is our Malaysian culture , parents willingly band together on a drop of a dime. It starts courteous enough to catch wind of what the other side is thinking. But , it usually doesn't an hour before the "witch hunt" begins. Cousins , nephews and aunts on board. Uncles usually stay out of this. But , the nephew has to drive. Across all the races. It's probably easier to marry a foreigner in Malaysia ! Even the Babas keep their pedigree ! Like you can't marry a Chinese guy. The Chinese parents will be there , too. To stop the son from becoming a Baba. Things will settle down after the marriage of course. You end up needing to show up on 2 festivals , that's all.
@nomad or the hell you are "using ludicrous level of click-baiting" statement does not define how smart you are. This only means you are self centered, and arrogant. I think you need professional help and have yourself check before its too late my dear😅
Undeniably, these people making comments are foolish. They need attention, care and love as they never had it growing up and that is a sad life. Just a piece of advise, if boredom strikes, go online and watch all the videos of @just laz 😅 so you'll learn and get some tips that you can apply in your life.😊
@heimuk whatever and whoever you are, you have to understand and be open minded that the word " "hidden" used is to make awareness to some people who are not fully aware of, that these things exist in the culture which almost maybe are. You must be flattered that some foreign nationals made an effort to promote the culture which I don't think you can.
Well said, thank you. I said it many times, but here we go again. Malaysia is relatively unknown in the West, we don't hear anything about Malaysia, it's not in the news, no advertisement, no promotion it's completely out of our sight, so as it's history. I didn't knew anything about the country before I visited, I thought it will be a 1 trick pony, as I only seen the Petronas towers before and almost nothing else in every ad. Turns out it's an amazing place with massive cultural influences from Asia, which was clearly "hidden" for me at least...
For someone like me who is unfamiliar with the Asian cultures in general it was kind of "hidden". I mean it's hard to guess the difference between the Danish and the German culture as well right? If you been to any of these countries you would certainly disagree with this sentence.
The title is ludicrous level of click-baiting. You're content lacks if you have to resort to this level. And it actually does. You're vids a$$. Even the narration. But hey you got what you wanted, comments from chinese Malaysians that you've riled up.
Hi thanks for your comment. I don't see anything wrong with the title. You might tried to refer to the thumbnail. Yes it's click-bait but hey every video uses click-bait titles. Why would I put 2 weeks of work and a lot of money to the making of my video if nobody watches it in the first place? When I uploaded my video with a very fitting conservative thumbnail I had 2.5X lower CTR score compared to this thumbnail. Maybe you should watch trough the whole video first and than decide whether my content lacks something or not, because it seems like you just wrote your comment in anger after watching maybe the first few seconds. You should consider reading my channel's description: "This channel aims to introduce different countries and cultures around the world, while mainly but not exclusively focusing on Malaysia.

I couldn't agree more @JustLazlo nothing wrong with your videos what's wrong is the person making nonsense comments. I don't understand where this "creature" is coming from. It appears he/she/It is having a rough life and having a brain as small as the fish. What a shame! People like these are attention seeker!
China people came to this land since before 1000AD as evident of the Bujang Valley in Kedah. There are temples and utensils dated thousand of years old. The trader met up with India traders to trade. Some even stay here.. In 1400 during Parameswara, the hindu prince set up Melaka port city. He and gis Son, Mahmud sail to China to be crown as Melaka Sultan and Siam are not allowed to invade Melaka. Every year tribute is to be send to China. A battalion of soldiers with kungfu warriors were given Bukit Cina to stay in Melaka. During the 1700.the British colonised this land akd brought Ibdia and China workers to work in their industries mining and plantation. They cannot depend on the Malays to work on their industries. As the industries grows bigger the British Brough more China and India people. Till 1957, all these foreigners that stay here were given citizenship upon independence. But this time, most of them. Are on the 3rd of 4th generation eith grand children born here. According to a British scholar, Malaya economy was develop by the British and Chinese entrepreneur. Most Chinese develop the towns around Malaysia and zo not surprising most Town look like china town. Nevertheless the Chinese in Malaysia are dwindling as most of them already migrated overseas. That is the reason of the brain drain in the country. Its very hatd to find professional workers in Malaysia. Most companies still retained old workers even to 70 years old as they cannot find new dedicated workers to support the company.
Wow thank you for this amazing comment. I've learned a lot from it. Actually I am a bit surprised by the last sentence. When I visited the country I was kind of shocked as how low is the average age of people are in Malaysia. In comparison the average age in Britain is 40.7 years, meanwhile in Malaysia 30.8 years so it's actually a relatively young nation. In the video I mainly focused on the MASS migration, I wasn't necessary trying to find the very first evidence of migration I was focused on finding the spot, from where there was a noticeable difference in migration.
@@JustLazloOfficial Yup there are a lot of youngster and most of them are not dedicated as their father dedication.. Wake up 12 noon, play video games and pretend to work hard behind computer but im actual favt on FB. Most youngsters will. Quit a week. Or two or uou are lucky will. Stick gor few months. The will quit due to better offer. Even my. Boss wife told her daughter why the trouble going to. Work? Stay at home, everything paid for house and car by the parents.
@@az-fy3mp Thank you, I appreciate you 🙂 Don't worry bad comments not effecting me at all, I'm happy to make entertaining content for all of the people who value it 🙂
Personally I do want to see it like Dubai - I love it as it is and I know many Malaysians feel the same way. As a tourist, it is an incredible country with amazing landscapes, beaches, food, diversity, culture and amazing people. In all honesty, I have been to KL and Dubai, and I will say KL beats it hands down
I have seen your RU-vid channel, Your content is very nice. But your video's SEO score is very low! your videos are not SEO, they are not reaching the target audience. That's why no reach, no view, and subscribers are not increasing, because of that, no views are coming. The only solution to this is because your channel doesn't have enough SEO. If you want, I can do that full expert SEO service and fully help you.
Wow you sounds like a professional. I know you are confident enough that's why I offer you to become the exclusive SEO engineer for my channel. To do that all you have to do is choose a not very well performing video, make the whole SEO, post it all down below that specific video and if after 1 month there is a significant increase in the views I will hire you. Sounds great? Let me know your thoughts 🙂
Malaysia is not like Dubai,... because Dubai had peaceful and highly respected neighbours unlike Malaysia with arrogant, jealousy, pathetic dirty neighbours all around, Indonesia and Singapore 😎
You guys are cute. Hungarian is such a beautiful language. Sana matutunan mo ito lalo na kung dito ka sa Hungary nakatira dahil halos lahat ng makakasalamuha mo ay Hungarian ang gagamitin sayo. When you get to live in Hungary, learn the history and culture. Learn to cook Hungarian food, they love their food culture I tell you. During summer, they love to entertain visitors with ome cooked food hint: bográcsos ételek. 👍
Hmm you sounds like someone who already visited my country since you mentioned "bográcsos ételek" I will consider you as a fellow Hungarian friend I will pass comment to my girlfriend so she can prepare to cook Hungarian foods before she even visits my place haha 😁😃
I recently researched your RU-vid channel and I found your RU-vid thumbnails to be good but they are not attractive enough to get people to click on your videos. As a graphic designer, I can make your thumbnail more attractive and clickable. So can I redesign the thumbnail for you? Let me know. Thank you
Sure buddy go ahead. I have a new video coming up soon. If you can make a catchy design I'll promote you to my personal graphics designer. The video is about the Chinese culture and influence in Malaysia. Good luck, and keep me updated 😁🤓
American here, living in San Francisco 🌉. I was in The Philippines 🇵🇭 in 2022. As for Hungary 🇭🇺, I took piano 🎹 lessons. I learned music from Ernst Dohnanyi and Franz Liszt. The notes for the music were in Hungarian. I am learning Tagalog. Hungarian language is harder to learn than Tagalog. Good revenge! L 🤣 L
Haha, thanks. Liszt is a national treasure but I've never heard of the other gentleman so I had to google in Hungarian we call him Dohnányi Ernő. Last name comes first, first name comes last in Hungarian which is quite unique. Also the dates are different compared to UK or American dates. Year / Month / Day, where as here in the UK Day / Month / Year us is Month / Day / Year if I'm correct right? Tell me if I'm wrong :-) By the way feel free to watch my other videos and welcome to my channel, if you could share it with your friends and family that would be amazing :-)
The 2nd composer and pianist is that man 👨! His name is Westernized. He created exercises which some great pianists in classical music perform as warm up. My retired instructor learned from them a famous piano 🎹 teacher. Americans use month - day - year. US 🇺🇸 military 🔫 ⚓ ✈ 🦅 and most nations in the world 🌏 write ✍ the date 📅 as day - month - year. I use that because 1 I was around my military relatives (all male then) while I grew up 👦 and 2 I met many foreigners here in the USA 🇺🇸 and in my travels around the world 🌎.
@@WineSippingCowboy History is quite amazing isn't it? There are plenty of people known in a different country while they are completely unknown in another. Just an example: Amrita Sher-gil (or Amrita Sérgil in Hungarian) she is a half Indian half Hungarian lady until now I didn't even knew she existed. Nobody has ever heard of her in Hungary, but she is a superstar in India. Recently one of her painting were sold at an auction for more than 7 million USD, which is the most expensive painting from an Indian artist that has ever been sold. Do you have any recordings where you play piano? I'm just curious would be glad to hear you playing 🙂
@@JustLazloOfficial I do not have recordings on piano 🎹 . I went as high as sophomore level in terms of conservatory of music. I quit piano 🎹 😭, but started learning other instruments including guitar 🎸. A few years ago, I spent less time learning and playing instruments. But I work on my voice 👨🎤. I learned techniques from 1 coach who worked with Joe Elliott of Def Leppard and learned from watching OPM videos (Original Philippine Music) especially Morissette Amon. Related. I thought that my Western music collection had a good 👍 number of songs. But when I heard Morissette Amon in late 2018 , she proved me wrong! 😖 Then, I heard Marcelito Pomoy, TNT Boys 👦, Katrina Velarde, Regine Velazquez (again) and Jaya Ramsey (again) and music from Indonesia 🇮🇩 and other Eastern nations. From then on, I include Eastern music, especially OPM, for listening and singing.
Nag aaral ka ng Tagalog? Pagpalain ka. And then you'll hear the other languages spoken there and then you'll think, eeny meeny miny mo which one should I learn now? Hehehe. Kidding.
