I love that you mention some of the negatives. Most Vloggers only talk about the positives.
Thanks so much for watching our video. I agree with you about sharing some of the negatives too, like the issue with plastic in Southeast Asia. Coming from the west, it is absolutely shocking.
There are always pros and cons to everywhere you go. If you could go anywhere, where would you go?
Cheers,
Jill
Keep telling the negatives so we can improves it.
Tis little country
Is full of natural beauty
Loads of colourful cultures
Pack with fun n laughter

Hi there,
Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to write us a note. We could not agree with you more. Its simply should be called Marvelous Malaysia!
Every where we went, everyone was helpful and kind to us. We loved Borneo, and Malaysia has some of the best scuba diving.
Check out some of our videos and follow our journey!

So many Canadians are unhappy due to the cost of living - it's terrible in Canada right now.

Love Malaysia 🇲🇾 😍
Jill and Randy
My father worked for the World Bank in the late 80s and 90s, and one of the countries we got to experience was Malaysia. I attended the International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL), as well as the Singapore American School and Jakarta International School. I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity to grow up abroad. It feels so strange to be back in the USA. I was there for college, but after graduation, I left for good. Malaysia is an excellent country, and I cherish the memories I made there.
So, are you living in Malaysia again? We sure enjoyed ourselves there. And thank you so much for watching our videos and taking the time to respond.
Being a European expat residing and working here in Malaysia for more than 5 years, I can say you nailed it with this video. Absolutely true in all aspects. The good and the not so good, spot on. Well done, subscribed.
And so happy to see you take into account the (affordable) ‘luxury’ as well, it’s not about cheap after all, but merely about value for money, on all levels. 👍
Hi there,
Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to connect with us.
Yes - KL really blew us away! Excellent value and great lifestyle and the rest of the world is accessible from KL.
After leaving Canada - where the government thinks they can actually tax their way out of debt and the cost of living and lifestyle is simply miserable.... KL was a breath of fresh air.
We will be back in the later part of January.
Cheers,
Jill and Randy

Welcome to Malaysia..and happy live in MALAYSIA..#staysafe
Hi thanks for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
Def on my list for a month stay seen as it’s so close for us. Thanks once again 👍
Hi Kelly,
Yes, we certainly thought Malaysia offered great value. It's nice to sometimes have a city fix. I love that Malaysia offers a 3 month visa. I sure wish that the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam would also do this at sometime.
Thanks for continuing to watch our videos and sharing your thoughts.
I was thinking about reaching out in a post - to see if I could get viewers to share their thoughts on 3 questions and have them send me like a minute video on:
#1Why they left Canada or why they are considering leaving Canada?
#2 What their biggest fears were about leaving or are about leaving ?
#How has it changed your life or how do you think it would change your life? What's life like now?
I would love to put a film together on this. We get so many emails and the themes and fears are so common.I think people would start feeling like they're not alone.
Anyways - hope our paths cross one day
Cheers,
Jill

We’re very excited for you. We also enjoyed those locations. Actually we enjoyed all of Southeast Asia. Thanks so much for watching our videos and taking the time to respond. We’ve attached a link of our two other videos on Kuala Lumpur. Hope you find time to watch.

@@jillpemberton1434 Yes, I have already watched all your videos about Malaysia. 😀
Damn… my younger Brother (age 46 and who’s been through/stopover Malaysia twice) has mirrored your words and impressions. I’m going to take a bit more of a look at this Country/City. My biggest concerns were the flight time/cost (for others visiting too), the time differences, language issues, cleanliness (within reason) and the Monsoon-like storms/super humid weather. But the upsides do make it intriguing. You’ve both definitely spiked my interest. Thanks for the video.
Hey thanks for watching and for taking the time to write.
The 3 month visa is fantastic for Malaysia !
Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines are annoying because you can only get one month, you need to also show a return flight even though you can extend your visa once in those countries.
Vietnam - you need pre approval before entering the country.( even more annoying) !
KL is a fabulous and easy to place to get around, it has a very western vibe. .Everyone pretty much speaks English. Flights to like Bali, Lombok, Vietnam and other parts of Asia are so cheap!
Indonesia is our favorite place in Asia - but that's because we are both divers.
We loved Borneo jungle trekking but it's a bit rough.
I book all our flights through google flights. If you are retired and have flexibility, then you can save a lot of money if you become savvy at using it. .
You can book flights from parts of Europe like London and the MiddleEast Dubai for about $350.00 Canadian taxes everything included/ one way.

If you have no financial issues then there no need to hold back because other issues are just minor adjustments from your comfort zone. Go for it .
Wow ..what a great video Seem that your kowledge about Malaysia has surprised me.As Malaysian some of the facts I dont even know before this especially on the MM2H programme.Very informative video for the one who dont even know Malaysia before this.I m very proud of our Public Healthcare system which provide us free and subsidized medical care and give efficient service to locals and foreigners in Private and government hospitals here.Thanks for sharing and help to promote our beloved country to the World.Cheers and take.care.❤❤❤
Hi there,
Aww thanks so much for watching our video and taking the time to write us a note.
Randy went into one of the public hospitals and also had immediate and excellent attention. We are so impressed with your country.
Here are few videos about why we left Canada and why so many Canadians are now looking at Malaysia. Canada is a disaster.
Stay tuned for more!

Thank you Jill and Randy. You are a few steps ahead of us but my partner and I are heading in the same direction as you are. Just a quick question but you will hear back from us. How did you find that deal/rate for that hotel in Kuala Lumpur? I'm the logistics and value lead on the team and my partner is the "cool experience" finder. I will tell you to look into Wise. It's a, let's say, currency manager that works soooooo well for minimal fees and cool flexibility. How do you go about finding great value accommodations? Keep up the good life! Oh, by the way, I am a retired executive from the federal public service and, I so agree with you that the Health Care system has become a real disaster here in Quebec and Ontario. Getting out of Canada feels like a survival necessity. Bye for now!
Hi there,
Thanks for watching our video and taking the time to connect with us.
Randy is the master at finding the deals. We stayed at the Platinum ( which is very nice ) for $50.00 / night for the first few days. We walked around checking out and asking around for a monthly rate. So when we walked into the Pan Pacific, I thought no way!!!! Anyways, they have residences and Randy negotiated with them directly. Randy was also able to get a preferred rate as he was use to be with Vancouver Fire Department - your. government background will help and don't be afraid to use it. Maybe they thought Randy was a diplomat😂
Thanks for the tip on Wise! We will look into this.
Let's stay in touch!
Cheers,
Jill and Randy

Thanks for exploring malaysia. It is not perfect eg pollution (on land and water) however we fair better for air quality vs many south east asian cities.
In sabah borneo there are many floating villages with no waste management. The sabah gov this year plan to relocate settlements at gaya island to develope gaya island for tourism. Gaya is known for filipino refugees.
A lot off refugees come to Malaysia now for better life....from Myanmar Philippines & Other's country && others foreigner come don't want to go Home.
This wonderful information that you are sharing. Malaysia is certainly growing and making so many positive steps - especially in the rural areas.
Plastic is a huge problem but I think more and more people are learning through education. It just takes time.
Thanks so much for continuing to share your thoughts. We just love our time in Malaysia. We always feel safe there.
Also - thanks for continuing to support our channel

also another recent release.
ruclips.net/video/q8D3HPC8zns/видео.htmlsi=xvks9cHE5g7Y4m9V
Yes we noticed many people from Myanmar and the Philippines in Malaysia.
Migration is happening everywhere! So many people want out of Canada right now too- no place is perfect.
We were going to take a ferry over from Borneo to the Philippines but people told us it was not safe to enter the Philippines in that area.
@@jillpemberton1434 Yes, the sea between Sabah and Philippines isn't quite safe, typical tourists don't travel by ferry across that area. Usually only locals (fishermen etc.) travel across that route by boat.
In the 2000s and 2010s there were some high profile kidnapping cases by pirates and/or terrorists from the Philippines. There was even an armed incursion on Malaysian soil by Sulu militia in 2013 that tried to "claim back their homeland" (this kind of attack has never happened before), fortunately it was quickly put down by the Malaysian military.
That event has since then knocked some sense into Malaysia's federal government & the general public of Malaysia, and the navy and marine police have since then carried out constant patrol on the surrounding waters and tourism islands.
Owww...From what i see from your vlog, now everyone wants to come to Malaysia!😂😂😂Lol!
Well, it’s tough to blame them isn’t it? People are getting sick and tired of getting ripped off. It seems like one of the last places left where prices are somewhat affordable. Thanks for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
Brilliant reviews...bravo

KL is the perfect place for anyone wanting to live in a sky scrapper in a big city. It’s a beautiful, clean city and very affordable. I like to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there. That’s just me. I’m not a city person. I also visited Penang and Langkawi. Langkawi was really hit hard by covid and has not recovered. Much of it is run down now unless you’re staying in one of the big resorts. (Was there January 2024.)
Hi there. We are not really big city people either. But we do like a month or two there. And we loved Borneo and some of the other islands. We have two other videos on koala Lumpur. Hope you can check them out. And thanks so much for watching our videos and taking the time to respond.

Very informative! I like that the video is not too long, good editing. I read about trash issues like delays of clean ups after floods in rural and seaside towns. Yearly monsoon floods, but the management is still poor.
Yes they could definitely improve. But they seem to be working on it. Hopefully we see improvement in the very near future. Thank you so much for watching our videos and taking the time to respond.

I see pictures of your pups in some videos. Curious if you travel with them or if you have someone look after them when you decided to travel around the world.
Hi there,
Thanks for watching and taking the time to connect with us.
Our pets Walter and Blue, lived with my eldest son Matt. Sadly Walter passed away in his sleep at the age 16. I guess you say on Walter's terms. Big Blue Bear, who always bounced around like a puppy and acted like she was 2 , passed away last month. In the morning she was running around the beach and at 5pm, the vet said there was nothing they could do for her. Blue's stomach had twisted. Blue was 12. Our dogs were always so loved and we now we will miss them dearly as a family.
Thanks so much for watching and subscribing. We really appreciate you taking the time to write. Stay tuned!

Thanks again for responding to our question! Yes, would love the contact info for the hotel, we’re thinking for the Fall shoulder season. Travel safe!
Hi there. Here is the email of who we booked it through. Feel free to let her know you spoke with us. And as we mentioned before it was the monthly rate. It is a great full-service hotel, in what we consider to be the best location in all of the Kuala Lumpur. We hope you have fun. If you get a minute please let us know what kind of rate you got.

Malaysia is a great country to visit for a few months but current MM2H visa requirements make it hard for the average person to qualify. All 3 programs (Peninsular, Sarawak, Sabah) require a large fixed deposit and high monthly income. Program administration has been bounced between immigration and tourism departments, delaying processing times. Many applicants wait months only to find out their application is denied or they receive numerous requests for more documents. Hope they can fix this someday!
Hi there. Thanks for reaching out. We have not personally applied for a visa. But we were insured, there would be no problem. I guess you really never know though until you actually apply. Thanks so much for watching her video and taking the time to respond.
Very interesting, thank you

Thanks for sharing with us your travels and opinions. I was born and raised in South East Asia a long time ago, but came as a refugee in Europe in 1980 and later settled in Québec as a young adult in 1993. Now I am near retirement. I have only traveled and visited 2 asian countries, Thailand and Japan. Never returned in my own birth country, and don't plan doing so in a near or distant futur ( once a war torn country and now a very touristic one, and you have visited it many times, according to your previous vlogs ). I have mixed feelings about Asia. I prefer Europe and Canada. Mexico would be a very interesting country to visit.
Hi there,
Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to write.
KL , Malaysia has more of a western modern vibe. Places like Borneo are still quite primitive.
I am assuming you were once from Vietnam?
Yes, I have been to Vietnam so many times but that was for my work which was once in Ho Chi Minh City and then later mainly in Hanoi. What I have always found interesting, is that even today - people in south would say " no no don't go north to Hanoi ...bad quality" and then in the north in Hanoi - they would say the same about the south. This last time in Vietnam - I was able to relax and actually really take in the sights.
My favorite place in Asia is Indonesia but that is because we are both really into scuba diving. I love Lombok, Sumba, Flores, Raja Ampat and the Gili Islands.
Mexico City has more of a European vibe - if you like cities. We were there in March and the weather was perfect. You never feel like your in a big massive city- all the streets are beautiful tree lined and pedestrian friendly.
This summer we head to Europe in July!
Where in Europe do you like? We are not just visiting places but actually looking at places to maybe live.
Cheers,
Jill
You are right, I was born in Saigon, South Vietnam. It was not safe to travel in war time, as you can imagine. I just knew Saigon, and 2 other towns : Binh Duong and Vung Tau, where my parents took us for vacation every year. The roads could be dangerous and once, I have heard story about the kidnapping of Westerners by the ennemy on the road from Saigon to Binh Duong. But Saigon was very safe. People went on their daily life , it is so odd now when I think about this time. My childhood was normal and happy. But after the defeat, everything has changed. Southerners had to manage to survive, and for the people who could, to flee. So we fled. As we had family in France, we went there. Vietnam was a French colony before. I have never dreamed of coming back. South Vietnam has ceased to exist.
Europe is a lovely continent, and so diverse, even within a same country. Architecture, culture, traditions, food... In many ways, yes, I think Mexico is much like Europe.
I have a fondness for France, Portugal, Spain, Italy and Greece. All countries with access to sea. Just like South Vietnam 😊.
When you will visit Europe this summer, it would be wise to take your time and slow travel. There are so much to see in one place.
Be careful of the pickpockets.
I love your channel and can't wait to see more. Please take care, stay safe and sound.
Cheers ❤
Come on over!
Hey there!
Ok we are coming back!
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to reach out 😍.We really appreciate it!

Thanks again for such an informative video 😊
And thank you so much for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
Good contents vlog ! Love it !❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for the comment. We also have two other videos on Kuala Lumpur. Hope you find the time to check them out as well.
Great video. What do you suppose the cost of living is in KL, if you were living like a local? You probably won't live in a hotel if you settled there (or maybe you would) 😅
It would be considerably cheaper. At least for your accommodation that is. You can get a very nice place in KL for less than $1000
If people want to drink a lot eg wine, beers, better to go to tax free islands which are
1. Labuan
2. Forest city
3. Langkawi
4. Pangkor
5. Tioman
Other places have taxes on liquor.
Hey there,
Those are great tips for people! Thanks for taking the time to reach out and share this information. We will be back in Malaysia in January 😍 Can't wait.
Cheers,
Jill
Are you sure Pangkor is tax free for alcohol. Chocolates definitely.
Hi, where did both of you stay while spending time in Sabah?
Hey there,
Thanks for watching and for reaching out.
We flew from KL to Tawai and stayed at a hotel called Rooms. It was quite nice.
Then we travelled to Semporna, and there we stayed at place called Seafest - it was just ok but we did some diving trips from there.
Then we traveled to Sandakan and stayed at the Sandbay Hotel. After Sandakan we did the Kinabatagan River Safari. I just loved at the River Safari.

We absolutely love Malaysia! It is truly a great place to spend time in! Much better and more affordable than Canada!

Great video, question; for your KL hotel stay, how did you book the Pan Pacific as online prices from Canada show considerably higher prices? Did you book in person or from Asia? Thank you!
Hi we went right to the hotel and booked it there. I just put a email into the lady who helped us. If you were thinking of going I can pass on her contact info. Rates are always changing, depending on time of year, and Occupancy. And thanks so much for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
Thank you for promoting Malaysia. However, I’d suggest boiling the water first before drinking it 😁
Thanks for the tip! We were staying at the Pan Pacific. And they insured us the water was fine right out of the tap. Maybe they have it go through a filtration system first. And thanks so much for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
How would it be for a single adventurous 60 year d woman?
Hi Lynne,
Thanks so much for connecting with us and for watching our video.
You would have no problem travelling in south east Asia on your own. South East Asia is very safe and the people could not be friendly. We met plenty of single men and women traveling solo.
We are now in Europe. We are pet sitting around the world and this helps because the accommodations are free and I get my fix with doggies, cats and other pets😃. It’s great because you are immersed into “home life and community “. If you want more information on this please shoot me an email or connect with me on instagram 😊
Cheers,
Jill
I am truly ashamed as a Malaysian that many Malaysians find littering is not something to be ashamed of, I think our government has done enough to clean it up but far from doing enough to transform the mindset of our people in this aspect.
Hi there,
Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to connect with us.
Awareness is the start of change, one person at a time.
Thanks again,
Jill and Randy

Do you have to go all in leave Canada 100% or can you do 8 months out 4 back
Hi there. Thanks for watching our videos and taking the time to respond. Actually we were just back in Canada for a few weeks visiting. We do have friends though who are non-residents. They spend six months in Canada and then six months in their home in the Turks and Caicos. Yes, you do have options.
I don’t understand how you got that price on the hotel. I look it up and it seems affordable but far more than what you paid
Hi there. It all comes down to your negotiating skills. The most expensive hotel room for the company is an empty room. There can be a huge variation between the rack rate and what you might agree to. I should also add that was a monthly rate. If you are planning a trip there, I can give you a contact number. And thanks for watching our videos and taking the time to respond.
@@jillpemberton1434 I don’t have plans to go but at that price, I probably would make plans eventually. I intend to more or less do what you guys do: travelling indefinitely.
Would be glad to contact someone at hotel although, as I say, I don’t have specific plans for now
Another great video you 2. Very beautiful country, my wife and I still prefer Thailand, I prefer Buddhism to Muslim culture, but that is a personal opinion
Hey there!
Thanks again for watching our videos!
I kinda agree with you on Buddhism. However, we found the muslims in Malaysia and Indonesia very different from Egypt and Jordan. In Southeast Asia, they were always warm and friendly and we never ever gave it a second thought. In Jordan and Egypt - I swear you just feel the disdain. Don't get me wrong - there are some amazing places to "visit" .
I love that Malaysia offers a 3 month visa. I sure wish that the Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam would also do this at sometime.
Thanks for continuing to watch our videos and sharing your thoughts.
I was thinking about reaching out in a post - to see if I could get viewers to share their thoughts on 3 questions and have them send me like a minute video on:
#1Why they left Canada or why they are considering leaving Canada?
#2 What their biggest fears were about leaving or are about leaving ?
#How has it changed your life or how do you think it would change your life? What's life like now?
I would love to put a film together on this. What do you think ? We get so many emails and the themes and fears are so common.I think people would start feeling like they're not alone.
Anyways - hope our paths cross one day
Cheers,
Jill
Maybe it's more towards culture rather than religion? People in South East Asia are probably friendlier than other parts of Asia?
Fun fact: Malaysia is very diverse. In Borneo, the majority are Christians whereas in Penang island it is actually 80% Buddhist / Taoist. So feel free to explore.
MM2 Visa is not currently available. Not been available for a long time and no estimate as to when it will be available again.
It was available when we were there six months ago. And it shows it is still available on the Malaysia government site. It was extremely successful why would they do away with it. Thanks for bringing that to our attention. We will do some further research.
You can opt for a Digital Nomad visa.
@@jillpemberton1434 The Malaysian government site is outdated. Talk to a registered agent for updated details. The government changed the program several times over the last few years to "attract a higher caliber" of applicants. There are several versions/levels of the MM2H program based on geography, plus a premium high net worth program and digital nomad visa program. And I think the Labuan business investment program is still available.
@totorovictoria2170 MM2H is available, depending on if one is qualified or not.
@@zafir7007 Yes.
Even Canada?
Hi There,
Thanks so much for watching and for taking the time to connect with us.
Canada is in so much debt and the cost of living is outrageous. It's cheaper for us to travel the world verses sitting in a house in the cold in Canada!
Cheers

Good you mention the good and the bad. However: if you obsess about plastic straws you miss the point. Paper straws release toxins while being used. These is no problem with plastic straws, there is a problem dealing with waste, which is always a low wealth ("poverty") related issue.
We are not obsessing about straws. And we totally agree with you. For example, the single use plastic ban in Canada introduced by Trudeau is a joke. We have been educated for years not to litter. And to recycle our plastics. If Trudo wanted to really make a difference the money spent on that program should be directed to education of other countries. And thank you so much for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
Now, millions of foreign workers are working here mostly from Indonesia, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Vietnam, China and some from African Countries. Most of them indisipline. They dumped rubbish everywhere, commit crime & involved in illigal bussines. This is the major problem to Malaysia.
Hi there. Immigration seems to be a problem all over the world right now. People are constantly moving looking for a better life. I think the big problem is there are just too many people on this planet. Hopefully all governments properly police their new residents. We have a similar problem in Canada. Different circumstances but the same problem. Instead of worrying about securing votes, it would be nice to see our government secure Canada. Thanks so much for watching our video and taking the time to respond.
🎉 Nice video. I hope in the future, my Small Travel Channel can grow yours. Maby you have some tips? 😢
Hi there. Thanks so much for watching our videos and taking the time to respond. The biggest tip we could give you is just try to put out good quality videos, and be consistent. Our channel is very new. We are learning as we go along. We subscribe to your channel and noticed it’s growing. Keep up the good work.
@@jillpemberton1434 Thanks for the reply, I hope you get the subscribers you deserve ❤️ You have very good videos 🙏🏻❤️ I will remember your tips ☺️
I bet that scene in 11:48 is not from Malaysia. Taking a scene from some other country to illustrate your point is not a fair representation.
Hi there. Thanks for watching our videos and taking the time to respond. Please don’t get us wrong. We loved our time in Malaysia. And it was really nice to see the local governments working towards a healthier environment. As far as the scene goes, our apologies. There was a mixup in our video filing. But either way, there is a problem worldwide with the environment. Thankfully, your government is making an attempt to address it.
Kings and Queens huh? Very colonial mindset to describe without being mindful of the locals who actually earn low wedges.
Please don’t take our comments so literally. We are very mindful of everyone we meet during our travels. Try taking all the travelers away from these tourist locations. See what happens to wages. Everyone Hass to spend their money somewhere. We choose to spend it in other countries, rather than giving it to Trudo to waste away.
Did you mention the US$1 million government deposit and proof of US$9k per month guaranteed external income you need to qualify for a visa that's only valid for a limited period? Few people qualify for that and certainly none struggling financially and using food banks in their own country.
Always sunny and hot? That may have been your experience on your holiday but weeks can go by with just grey skies. In El Niño years, that can extend to months. Healthcare is pretty good, that is unless you need trauma car in which case you're in the third world where no healthcare insurance will make a difference. That's worth bearing in mind when you consider Malaysia has one of the highest road casualty rates in the world. Yes you can supposedly drink the water but locals don't which tells you all you need to know.
Malaysians are totally irresponsible in terms of dealing with rubbish. If it's in their hands, it's their problem. If they drop it, it becomes someone else's problem and this applies to everything from litter to toxic industrial waste. The pollution in KL and the wider Klang valley is ever present due to the amount of industry, older polluting vehicles exacerbated by geographical and climatic conditions that trap the pollution. California is similar in that respect and was the birthplace of most emission legislation. Pollution alone is reason not to stay too long anywhere in the Klang valley.
Alcohol used to be cheap but successive racist governments have raised taxes, mainly to keep it out of the hands of Malays who despite religious restrictions, love it. The slow decline into the deep, dark abyss of conservative Islam has been mirrored by removing people's ability to enjoy themselves. It used to be so much better here.
Hey there,
Hi there,
Thanks for watching and taking the time to connect with us we really appreciate it.
As we mentioned, no where is perfect. Every country has its problems. I think once you stay longer, in time you get to experience the imperfections and difficulties.
I think the month visa for tourist is great for most people and Malaysia can really benefit from the tourist dollars.
Again, thank you.
