>visiting discount Singapore
malaysia's about 5 times cheaper and 5 times more interesting than Singapore. KL's underrated imo. klcc, pasar seni, the parks/gardens, colonial areas, delicious local, chinese & indian food for peanuts. the beach club was famous in around 2010, i may have taken a black chick or two home from there one night, no charge and they didn't rob me the next morning, yep kl's a great city.

Asingapore is way over priced
One of my favorite countries I've been to, ended up working at a hostel in KL for a couple months. Check wikitravel for the main places to visit.
Personal favorites were:
Teman Negara NP
Cameran Highlands
Langkawi
East coast is less developed for tourists, so it's the less visited scenic gem. Good beaches and scuba. Hoping to visit there someday.
Redpill you? It's very diverse. But with Chinese and Indians with the natives, so it works much better than the 'other' type of diversity. The meme is actually true though and the food is amazing and varied for it. All good people too.
real shit, i went there and ate like a pig just to try as many as local cuisine as possible
bong in malaysia here
>Redpill me on Malaysia.
it's a corrupt bureaucratic police state controlled by muslims. there ya go you wanted a "redpill"
>Cameran Highlands
cameron highlands used to be nice and still is in some places. it's a bit overdone these days though
>Langkawi
langkawi has been in the news here recently
langkawi is part of the state of kedah which is one of the most malay-majority states. in the recent state elections the islamist fundie party won more seats in kedah and in the aftermath there have been stories of tourists being harassed by muslims on the island. i don't know how true or widespread it is because it would ruin tourism there and they need the money.
there are nicer islands anyway. try pangkor or tioman
I would go only with carry on, if they plant you drugs in your suicase malasian drug laws are no joke
They've got some real spine snappers up in there I'm not going to lie
I enjoyed KL and Penang. What are your interests?
I have never been there, but I feel it will be the next big thing in East Asia. They’re at the doorstep between developing and developed right now.
How’s the cooming in KL?
i didnt have any success there at all. neither in Singapore.
Batu caves is pretty good as well as most of Penang, very cheap and great food, probably the best Indian food I’ve had and it didn’t give me crazy shits which is rare for me
Agreed, those large-ish, cheap Indian places with outdoor seating that look like they should be diarrhea death traps have always been fine for me. So cheap and delicious. And +1 for Batu Caves, they’re def worth a visit. Malaysia’s underrated, perhaps because it’s relatively isolated. As an ausgay it’s always been my springboard for the rest of the world so I’ve got a soft spot for it.
those colors on the steps really detract from it's beauty and i wish they never did that.
the best time to visit batu caves is during the major festivals like thaipusam. the place is heaving like a moshpit and there are always crazy pajeets with hooks in their backs, all that kind of thing
My hotel had armed guards and I still don't know why. The taxi driver says 'This is the price for you' when I got in. The Petrona's were closed, the food was good, everyone pretends to be into Islam because they are shit scared of the ape out
>My hotel had armed guards and I still don't know why.
the only time i have seen an even-potentially-armed person at a hotel in malaysia was during covid. i was quarantined at a hotel in kl and there were a couple of very bored looking soldiers posted at the hotel
the only other armed guards i have seen were at a high end gold and israeliteellery store where there was a tiny pajeet with a shotgun sitting outside, and guarded bank couriers. most banks etc just have guards with nightsticks. i guess maybe they have guns on the premises in some places. not far from where i live a bank guard was murdered (shot) a while ago
i guess there may be guards at some hotels in sketchy areas. not really my kind of thing.
>The taxi driver says 'This is the price for you' when I got in.
everybody in malaysia uses grab. the taxi drivers have always been bastards
I did some light digging into it, thought about a 5 day stay as a stopover when coming back from Vietnam to the US. I think I'll make it an actual trip now. That rail system actually looks fleshed out, that alone impressed me.
Malaysia sounds like a cool place to spend six weeks or so, in between flights. They let Americans stay up to 90 days without a visa, so for once you don't have to hurry through the country. Not having to interact with the government at all is how I prefer it.
Overlanding the Thai / Malay peninsula, how are the buses and accomodations in the stopover towns? I'd like to return to Thailand by land after flying Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur.
Buses are cheap as hell and can take you anywhere in the country (except Borneo. you'll need a plane to get there)
When the frick did you go? I've been all around the peninsula and parts of Borneo and never saw an armed guard or any remotely locked up. The Petronas towers have a bustling mall inside, so I can only assume you visited during a riot or something.
Are there any ladyboys? t. OP
Muslim country that will become even worse as global economic situation deteriorates more.
what's the best part of KL to stay in?
in the news here today - pic related - another malaysian state decides to frick up its tourist industry. terengganu includes some islands that are popular with scuba divers etc. originally they said they were going to enforce the rules for muslim tourists anyway but since even most muslims don't go around carrying a banner declaring their religion they are just picking on anyone
for what? for how long? for how much?
just stay somewhere central. if you want to be somewhere where there are lots of expats (and the facilities that go along with that) then try mont kiara or bangsar especially the area around bangsar village mall
