Indeed cashless system is getting so much better in Malaysia! However in Japan, cash is still king! Most restaurants in Japan would still require cash!
wait in japan there's no discount for traffic fine?... malaysia does it so it encourage people to pay the fine to just settle it rather than it not be pay at all..at least thats the goal of the discount for..
@@deshwitat_2 san, there's no discount for traffic fine in Japan. I think no discount in US too. Japanese will pay because the case will proceed to criminal proceedings as a violation of the Road Traffic Act. If the prosecutor files an indictment, the person will go to trial .If a judge determines that a violation has occurred, criminal penalties will be imposed. So everyone will pay it in Japan. Thanks for the comment.
Love your observation that "In Malaysia, trains & buses do not have timetables". Very true, indeed ! These trains (especially KTM) & buses are very inefficient, with no sense of punctuality at all. Users of these unreliable public transport are therefore "forced" to be very patient. Poor infrastructure planning also caused chaotic traffic & traffic congestion on various routes contributing to untimely public bus schedules.
I recently drove around Chiba Ken, and I felt it was difficult to follow the traffic rules because it was too slow and I am afraid there is police with speed camera hiding around corners. Would love to drive faster but I am so afraid of getting summons in Japan as like you have said, no discount. Also, another difference is you can turn right as long opposite direction is clear of traffic, but I noticed it is difficult to do if it is on busy intersection. Plus toll road is so expensive too, I checked the ETC rate from Narita to Yokohama (distance wise should be same from KLIA to KL town) is priced similarly if I drive all the way from KL to Johor Bahru At least what I like is everyone is patient on the road (which is good if you not in rush) and those who are driving impatiently tend to be other foreigners too
@hamtairo san, Thanks for the comment! What you said is all correct! You make me laugh this part "Would love to drive faster but I am so afraid of getting summons in Japan as like you have said, no discount. " Hahahahaha. No Joke, No discount! Yes, toll is very very expensive! I'm used to pay like RM2 or 3 , you know 😂
There is no doubt a high road accident rate in Malaysia due to ignorance of road safety regulations and poor driving conduct. I hope Malaysian drivers will be more considerate when they are driving on the road.
I noticed that you stand a lot while you cook, which means you got strong legs and tireless. For me, I used a high stool to sit when cooking because my legs easily tired. I have also lost my husband but must still cook dinner for my son's everyday.😊
The biggest difference I noticed about a Japanese MNC and others are that the Japanese still believe in oral agreements and practice. I've worked in the UK and also with German and American MNCs. When I worked with the Japanese MNC, I had to adapt to their style of working which was long term relationships. By being good paymasters and also looking at long term relationships, they tend to get better deals from their contractors which others cannot. And because these contractors, whether they are Asian or Western know about the Japanese business sense and will honour them without recourse to litigation. Good point was when we were renegotiating a long term contract with a American MNC which was worth a lot, and yet, the contract was only 9 pages long. Yet, the negotiation was very simple, the Americans said we like the contract as it is (9 pages) and just update the prices! The Japanese said ok, and that was it. Oh, and the contract was the same for almost 2 decades! Bad point was when one of our contractors caused problems for us and we were getting ready to sue on what was a sure-win case for us. Yet, the top management decided to negotiate with them and settled the matter which was bad for us in the short to medium term, but balanced out in the long term. Yes, very different style of working, the Japanese culture.
You had wonderful experience. I think ah you can write a book about it la. It will be very interesting story. All the country's MNC got different view. Thanks for the comment!
@@HanaMalaysia Mmm, well my friends do tell me that I should write a book too about my experiences. Perhaps, I should before age makes me forget them. At least I know I can persuade my children to buy them :)
Terima kasih kerana mencintai Jepun. Saya juga sayangkan Malaysia kerana saya telah menetap di sana selama lebih 30 tahun. Sama-sama kita jaga kesihatan dan buat yang terbaik.

Terima kasih di atas komen anda. Jadi awak belajar bahasa Jepun. Jepun pun boleh jadi tertutup sikit. Sila sambung belajar bersungguh-sungguh. Saya berharap afizi1213 akan dapat tinggal di Jepun suatu hari nanti.
