This weeks adventure blew our sock off! We never imagined that we would see and experience all of this in Malaysia. We unexpectedly come face to face with a huge herd of beautiful wild elephants in an experience we will never forget. We also explore the paradise islands of the Perhentian Archipelago, snorkeling, kayaking and hiking through the jungle. This is one of our favourite experiences yet and we are so excited to share it with you.

for me,encountering an elephant in the wild ,seeing,experiencing what u did is equivalent to seeing a live shark in water (maybe exaggerated ,but thats how i think i feels) .. scared,excited,in awe,feeling the majestic of the animal is just different in the zoo.. its really lucky u got to experience it while traveling..

@euyie8738 Год назад

Infrastructure decay happens in Malaysia mainly due to the fact that there is a duality in the administration of the tourism industry between the federal and the state government. Most of the funding for infrastructure development comes from the federal government while the maintenance and marketing are done by the state. Prior to 2018 when Malaysia was governed by a single powerful ruling coalition parties, the coordination of policies and implementation especially in tourism were pretty smooth and streamlined across the federal and state levels. However after the fall of that single powerful party during the GE16 after 60 years in power, the new and subsequent coalition governments struggle to devise comprehensive and holistic plans for the country’s and state’s tourism sector as the competing political parties try to aggressively hold onto whatever power and influence they have left at both at the federal and state levels. Consequently, the funding, policies, planning and implementation are often mismatched which eventually lead to inefficient funding distribution, ineffective marketing strategies etc. There’s also a divide among the powers that be and the general population who live in the west coast versus those who live in the east coast…that’s why you rarely see any travel agencies located in the west coast which promotes tourist attractions located in the east coast

@truebluetravellers Год назад

Thanks so much for that information, it’s really interesting. It’s so sad when the need for power overruns the needs of a place and it’s people. We have issues in England with discrepancies between local and regional governments too, things like our rubbish tips are run by regional governments who continually make it harder and more expensive to dispose of rubbish appropriately and local governments are then the ones who have to deal with the resulting illegal dumping of waste as they have separate responsibilities. Also interesting what you say about the differences in the East and West of the country. We have noticed that there is a difference too but been unable to quantify what that is.

@iqbalmuhammad2920 Год назад

@@truebluetravellers If you observe carefully the East coast of peninsular (Kelantan, Pahang, Terengganu) is less developed, less industrialized and the road maintenance and quality is a bit dodgy. Compare that to the West states (Penang, Perak, Selangor, Malacca, Johor)

@truebluetravellers Год назад

We have noticed some differences like this but we also felt that there was perhaps more of a traditional Malay influence on the east coast too? A lot more signs were in Malay, there was more traditional homes, more Malaysian restaurants. It is still very multicultural but we just noticed this in a few places.

@euyie8738 Год назад

@@truebluetravellers Yeah it’s pretty much the same here too. There are local governments which perform better than the other despite the politics. In the end it’s all about the attitude of the local populace etc. If you happen to stop by the town of Kuantan for example you’ll stark improvements in terms of infrastructure and cleanliness compared to other east coast towns. Kuantan folks are known for their willingness to let their grievances known. That scares the sh*t out of the local of the local authorities

I had the same sentiments with the wind turbines, the rubbish and the dilapidated structures. What a shame! I totally agree. Most Malaysians do agree. We are good at building things but very bad at maintaining. Anyway, the country was recessed to a poor state 6-7 years back due to slumming economic and massive corruption by a political leader leaving most maintenance and national budgets being cut or siphoned by corruption. So it’s a problem nationwide. I’ve had the chance to hike Perhentian and wondered what had happened to the turbines too! A wasted beauty! That spot was really a scenic part of the island. So, yes you are disheartened and we are embarrassed! On another note, wild elephants are a thing of beauty. I wish not to see them and see them at the same time.. There are excitements whenever my friends and I spot their fresh dungs on some of our hikes, but there’s always the fear that comes with it, if we ever run into them on close encounter. On our last hike, we ran into a black panther. Luckily, only our guide at the front came face to face with the beast and alerted everyone at the back to stay back and regroup.

It’s so sad that it seems the world over when some people are given the opportunity to be leaders they choose to serve themselves rather than their country, Wow, incredible, to see a black panther in the wild would be truly amazing and terrifying at the same time your so right about the elephants, we were glad we were in the car rather than on foot 😂😂

Yes it’s a world wide problem, we saw it in Australia too. We found that the corals in the deeper water were less affected, they are less likely to be touched there too.

@noordinbeldenlex1620 Год назад

A definitely fascinating video. The sequence where you come across wild elephants in the middle of the road is the best one in your video. The elephant is one of Malaysia's protected and national animals, along with the Malayan tiger. It's great that you brought up about the rubbish and dirtiness of the place, which is a blight on many visitor destinations, especially on the island. Hopefully they will keep the area clean and maintain them orderly if they still want people to come.

@truebluetravellers Год назад

Thanks very much, that’s really kind of you to say. The elephants were just amazing weren’t they, I still can’t believe how lucky we were! We’d love to see a tiger too! We don’t want to be negative, it is an amazing place but it’s heartbreaking to see the rubbish like that

@noordinbeldenlex1620 Год назад

@@truebluetravellers - Actually, I've never travelled on that highway, but I've heard that when it was first constructed, tigers could even be seen roaming in the centre of the road. It used to be a jungle and is actually located in an isolated place between west and east of peninsular of Malaysia. The route is only open during the day light; I am not sure of their nighttime closing policy now. In the early years of Malaya, elephants were used as a form of transportation. In those days, owning an elephant was equivalent to today's of owning a car, therefore the more elephants you had, the more cars you had. I notice that you have many viewers who are following your vlogs here, including myself, so keep posting them to share your interesting experience with us.

@@noordinbeldenlex1620 thanks very much, it’s so lovely to hear that you enjoy our videos, thank you for watching them. The jungle is so dense on the sides of the road it makes you think about what might be hiding in there, such a beautiful part of the world ❤️

@ashtriana1 Год назад

In the early 80s, we can't use the highway at night, yes....but it is not just because of the wildlife but threats of the communist (you can findl police/arny outposts several km apart during those years)

@noordinbeldenlex1620 Год назад

@@ashtriana1 - Today, the threat posed by communism is non-existent. It would be beneficial to know if police posts are still stationed along the highway in case of emergencies. Since the highway is actually rather remote, nobody can come to your aid in case of need, especially at night. Just how is the highway now accessible at night?
