Little Chinese Everywhere

My journey in Malaysia continues with the Jungle Railway across the beautiful rainforest in the center of Malaysia. from Kuala Lipis to Kota Bharu, a city at the very north-east of the Malaysian peninsula. Outside my hotel in Kota Bharu, I accidentally discovered the birdnest/swiftlet farms, which are known for their expensive birdnest production. Then I went for a talk with the friendly locals and tried some nice food on the streets!
(Please correct me if I gave any wrong information, I am still learning all the way!)

Those kids waving at people on the other train and them waving back is the cutest thing ever 😊

You’re an adventurous girl. Your videos clips totally different from many others you tubers from China. Salute to you! FYI drinks in Malaysia or South East Asia generally are too sweet for Chinese’s tongue.Just tell the seller -kurang manis (ku-rang ma-nis) means less sweet when ever you make order.

So nice to see the locals interacting with you and explaining things.

Greetings from America Yan. I'm enjoying your trip back home from Switzerland and really like your unique vlogging style. In an earlier vlog (intro?) you questioned your command of English. Please don't, it is excellent and honestly better than many native born & raised Americans. Thanx for taking me along today !!

The fact that you don't use filter(unlike most East Asian) and apply simple makeup in your video makes them more unique.

Although Kota Bahru looks like a sleepy town, your exploration made me interested in this town and the much new information you shared about it. And Kuba Guling looks really delicious. Thank you for sharing your journey. I am a new friend here. Greetings from Singapore.

I was a Malaysian (from Ipoh) but now an Australian. Following your videos in Malaysia bring back many many memories of my childhood there.

You will never encounter any communication problem here in Malaysia. Generally here most malaysians of all walk of life do speak simple English even in rurals area. Looking forward to your next vlog.

Interesting train ride. The tiered roofs are typical of Pasisir architecture found in all coastal 'Malay' villages in the archipelago, now coasts of Malaysia, Indonesia, Indo-china, Mindano-Philippines.

Note that Apam balik is actually of chinese origin, but slightly modified and eventually popular in malaysia and indonesia. The name differs depends on the region. In eastern part of indonesia is Terang bulan, in Semarang it is kue bandung, in bandung it is martabak manis, in parts of sumatra it is apam balik, in bangka it is hoklopan. The story is that a hoklo couple in bandung popularize them and named them martabak manis because they want to sell martabak telur (of arabic origin) so that they can sell sweet and savory food at the same time
