Having had the privilege of visiting Malaysia on two occasions, I was deeply impressed by the exceptionally warm and welcoming nature of its people. I send my salutations from Somalia.

Malaysia is amazing!!! But in some way, I prefer most people don't know much about this beautiful country, because some kind of people tend to ruin things... like Thailand and other crowded places. Some people don't respect places and that's a shame. That's why I like Malaysia has some strict rules...

We Malaysians and Malaysia as a whole are not perfect, far from it, and we humbly thank you for the compliments , but we do try to make everyday the best as possible for us and every visitors to our country

I live in Penang, have done for last 5 years….happiest 5 years of my life….long may it continue.

It’s true! Many Americans that never travelled outside the world would think the rest of the world is a jungle😂

She pronounced Malaysia perfectly 👍

Malaysia has and will forever have my heart. It's ABSOLUTELY one of the most beautiful , safe, affordably and amazing country on the planet.Not to mention it's people, their warmth I ADORE.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Lilith pronounces the word 'Malaysia' the same way we locals normally do. "Ma-lay-see-ya". ❤ Love Lilith.

Thanks for promoting Malaysia, our beautiful country! :) I am a Malaysian, my circle of friends and most people I met are puntual and productive people. From the video, it seems like your co-workers are more laid back, it doesn't necessarily reflect the work culture of other Malaysians.

The "Opera House" she mentioned is called "Istana Budaya" located at Titiwangsa area. Tititwangsa lake garden is the place where u can enjoy kayak, paddle boat, jog, etc is also located at around Istana Budaya.

we Malaysians have a good work-life balance, and we don't actually like crowded place & over-tourism. that's why we prefer to be hidden

I love her enthusiasm & honesty, about "the negatives" & the positives .. Too many youtubers completely leave out Uglier Truths .. And more of less "sell a place" to subscribers seeking "feel good - infotainment" .. Plus, I'm sure a lot aren't into / don't know the Politics / aren't focused on the negatives ..

Malaysia is amazing! Loved Kuala Lumpur!

KL is becoming increasingly popular year after year. Previously, many people just visited Singapore and Bangkok, but now many people repeat their visit

As a Malaysia, I feel Lilith, nailed it in so many ways in this video. Be careful girl, especially travelling alone, some people will exploit you if you lower your guard but generally most of us are honest people, especially the older generation

7:14 Titiwangsa Lake, and yes it's a beautiful lake park for sunset photoshoot

The working culture in Malaysia is generally relaxed. Here, everyone learns to be patient, and this approach works very effectively. Things move slowly but surely will get done.

Thank you for your kind words. Welcome to Malaysia.

This is so cool, I am still in Europe and I will probably live here forever but I am fascinated by Asia. Max dear, you manage to find always interesting people! Well done!

The way she pronounced "Malaysia" was quite on spot just like the locals.. approved 😂

i am a malaysian chinese, a big thank you for your positive views on malaysia

when i was abroad, people would ask me where about is malaysia? i would ask them, " you know thailand? you know singapore? yeah, we are between these two."

She really did well assimilating to the culture here and analyse things well. Just 1 thing - at 20:10 regarding Malaysian and their concept of punctuality & effeciency - I think it really depends on the group of people. I've worked with both private and public sector companies and there really is a difference in how effecient they are. Most people in private sectors don't slack off as much as she spoke of and get things done pronto

Love Lilith's description on "Wakanda of the world" so much. I was chuckling at, "come here, be happy and get fat" 😂 so trueeee

Hi Max, thank you for interviewing Lilith..... this is the best interview for me by far. Short, sharp and you sincere. Thanks buddy.

I really love Lilith. She's so "in love" with Malaysia. 😅 I think that's how to describe it. Even her mannerism is getting more and more like malaysianized... In a way. I didn't watch her on tik tok, but when i see her shorts on KZfaq, you'll know it. 😊 And personally, i thought, this is just my observation... When Malaysia get more tourist every year, and we heard from their perspective what they love and hate about Malaysia, it clicks in Malaysian minds that we have something beautiful that we take for granted before. We always compare ourself to other country but forgot to admire what we have. Observation from years ago. 😌

I agree that not many people know about Malaysia🇲🇾. When I go through social media, It's very seldom to come across something about Malaysia without searching for it. When people talk about asia, it's usually always about japan, korea, thailand, indonesia, china, india, etc. So whenever I see foreigners or non-malaysian people mention Malaysia, I always feel happy, patriotic, and proud cause like yesss people know about the country that I live in 😆😄

one of the commonest uses of Lah is when speaking, it is used to soften your tone. Instead of saying 'makan' (eat), you can say 'makan lah' (kindly/please (implied), eat). But like she said, it is one of those language quirks that can only be understood if you live, breathe and experience it yourself.

Please keep Kuala Lumpur and Malaysia as secret. Bangkok and Bali are two examples how overly-touristic places become spoilt because of all sorts of low quality tourists, foreign scums and scammers are there.

Wonderful interview with Lilith . Thank you for this video. Happy New Year 2024 to you Max.

I prefer my Malaysia to be unknown .. 😊

With over 32 millions friendly & kind Malaysians, these is a great country for content creators especially KZfaqrs. Economically lifestyle with good stable internet access.

I lived in Malaysia for 4 years and i never think of going back to my country Canada 😂😂😂

MALAYSIA is like Wakanda if you think its true because Malaysia have the most population of panther in the world.

Lilith is just one big bundle of captivating energy

She said "malaysia" with malaysian slang. Love it

The politician she was talking about is Gabby Giffords

My friend is from France and his parents have been against him coming to Asia to work, citing Asia as a very dangerous place. I think the perception of Asia as a dangerous place was because of the history of Vietnam and the Korean War, the political instability of some countries such as Myanmar, and Asia generally as "poor" countries in the past. Poor would generally mean unsafe.

We local peoples of mlysia used to live together wth other different etnicity such as Chinese n Indians..They mostly are very different in term of believe system..customs..culture..even minset etc. But managed to live harmoniously so far. We welcome anyone..not to mention peoples frm developed countries wch are mostly educated peoples..so...welcome..welcome . Maybe they can make mlysia their 2nd home..haha

She is right. Malaysians should do better when it comes to punctuality. However I wonder why people have this view that we are very relaxed. I think we act that way because that is our personality but our schedule is very pack. I mean Malaysians are notorious for being overworked. I remember watching Rafizi Ramli interview and he said when he worked as an accountant in the UK at one of the big 4 audit firm people don't work overtime as much as accountants in Malaysia do. An Australian friend of mine who is a Doctor, when he heard that Malaysian doctors have to attend to 40-50 patients per day he was shocked. In Australia doctors only attend 8-10 patients per day. That's what he said anyway. Malaysians are overworjed, probably because we don't have enough professional/high skilled workers. There is however a lack of entrepreneurial spirit among Malaysians. That to me has to do with the level of economic development. Countries tend to become more emtrepreneurial once they become rich.

thanks max for covering my lovely country

Wonderful lilith, awak masuk air lah❤ super cool

watching rain come down, with thunder and lighting... yes cathartic and invigorating at the same time....missing it big time

The interviewer host is clueless about the US. Being American, it is quite stressful living in the States, leave alone if you are in one of those crime-ridden hood towns like Philly or Baltimore, Chicago, St Louis etc. The majority of cities in the US have been in declining culture for the past 60 plus years to this failed state. I myself am planning to move out of the States entirely.

Bravo! You've blended so well, Lily!

14:55 Nyonya are basically a lady from peranakan heritage, while Baba are the men. Peranakan are basically mixture between foreign Chinese and locals back in 1500s. Most of them rooted in Malacca, Penang, and Singapore (port cities)

So true, I can remember the food in the Bahamas being awful... years later, it stuck with me.

When I was studying in El Paso Texas, I used to describe Malaysia as located between Vietnam and Singapore 😂

i don't know, as a Malaysian, the things she said at 12:23 made me emotional a bit..

6:46 She pronounced the country's name perfectly!

She's living an expat lifestyle in Malaysia. Of course she loves it. If her life would be like the local Malaysians, she would pack her bags back to US on the next flight.

Thanks Max for bringing Lilith to this channel 👍 Malaysia is not perfect but it has almost everything.. just digging the hidden gems.. check it out .. chill 👍🇲🇾✌️😎

wow I am impressed she know so much about my country. I wonder if she can speak Malay

Wow, Lilith really knows stuffs, deeply. Smart and very observant.

Muslims dont shake hands with different gender.. its not that they dont like you but in Islam women are so much respected and stands in 'exclusiveness' among society. It is priceless.. Just like a jewels display in the outlet.. It is placed in a highest security and well protected corner in the shop, wrapped in exclusive cloth.. cannot be simply hold with your bare hand..

I knew a little about Malaysia before there was a chance I met a tutor who introduced me to this country, and since then I started learning about its culture, economy, politics, history, and so on, of cause any country has its issues, but I would say Malaysia is already a nice place in the world, and I am planning to visit KL this year.

she is very well spoken and describing her experience in malaysia.

Thanks for yours social media posts which I enjoy tremendously and share too. Very cun and comel postings. Keep enjoying life here and anywhere you travel to. Take care too. ❤

Thank you for calling Malaysia the Wakanda, Miss Lilith.

She is very cool. I can sense her humbleness and genuineness.

Lilith is cute... in term of punctuality, so far so good lah... I used to have many working meetings with private sector, bankers and government officers in 2019. I dun remember any meeting did not start in time. Let me share my experience: 1) Dealing with Federal Gov - After the May 2018, a lot changes in Malaysia. I was quite impressed with the level of professionalism in the Federal Government. Majority of the high level civil servants are well educated. I observe that, they are compatible with Singapore Government agencies / authorities. I can meet up with Malaysia Government director level without paying any lobby fee. In Singapore, it is very hard to get Gov agency director to reply your email... I think they afraid of make mistake.. :) 2) Dealing with district / local Gov - This is where you have to understand how they work... You have to deal with "runner" to get thing done, eg. applying business license.. The "runner" full time job is to help you to submit your application directly to the top officer office... this is how they make some money.. This is the culture.. You pay and your matter will be settled. 3) Private sectors -- Money making discussion... everybody will always punctual. That's FOR sure.

Her energy thoo, love it !! Love from Malaysian ❤

Happy New Year. Tks for this interview and the information provided.

I love KL. I am planning a return trip again soon

Thanks Max....amazing interview....She's fantastic and awesome. Generally, Malaysian understands better the American English. They have been exposed to many American movies

Best part of living in that area is Bukit Tunku.

That's funny. A lot of Indians can't tell who is Pakistani just by looking at them because they could be Indian Muslims too. Usually you need the cues of dress, body language and accents.

I am a Malaysian Indian and I dont sometimes know the difference between a Pakistani and an Indian (especially when Punjabis for eg are on both sides of the border). I might difrenttiate between a North and South Indian but even then that's not easy, :)

Love the honest review from Lillith... ❤❤

I like the way when she say " Malaysia "...

ola Max.. awesome interview with Lilith, one of yr best ive seen.. Love KL, i think true 'Diamond of Orient'.. btw have a Great Happy 2024..

Try living in Manhattan where people like me have lived in 3-7

Next time when people ask you, tell them, I'm from Malaysia. See how their reaction

Tictoj's filtering tech is amazing. She approved.

Ok the timing part is spot on to describe mostly malaysians..

We are definitely interested to retire from the USA to Malaysia. It’s our top pick.

Welcome to Malaysia and thanks you visit to Malaysia

Malaysia here different. The 1st China come to Malacca in 1405 doing trade with India. Later near 1500 Portuguese came, then Dutch, then Spanish and late comer is British. U can see all the mentioned heritage building and fortified cannons in Malacca. Johor sold Singapore(Old name Tamasek) to British in 19th century. U can see the British fort in Singapore, Sentosa. Seem I doing history boring subject. 😂

We are not late.. we are on the way..😂

我觉得她有双发现美好的心灵。感谢她的喜爱与推荐❤

Please visit Sarawak ASAP. Our natives have the best handicrafts from different ethnic groups in the state. We have big rivers and some great waterfalls near the city of Kuching, the biggest city in Borneo. Street food in Kuching and Sibu is different from food in West Malaysia. Come to experience our Bamboo Chicken, Laksa, Kolong Mee, Mee Kolok, Kueh tiao with tomatoe sauce, Pork satay and other Iban food.

I guess you can't find any other countries would have Prime Minister open house party for public except Malaysia. 🎉

I was so surprised that she was staying in a hotel that I've stayed before. I could've met her!.

You sound exactly like I feel since I have retired which was in 2019. Hi I am a 73 year old married guy that worked offshore on ships in 60 countries overseas for 48 years. I basically have nothing in common with Amercians that have never traveled. My wife which is from the Philippines and I plan on moving there this year. I only feel comfortable around other expats when it comes to conversations. I joined a ship once in Kota Bharu for 1 day near the Thai border but I remember nothing about the place as I was tired and jetlagged from the journey. I am anxious to visit Penang and sample all of the food which is nearly the same as in Singapore.

As a Malaysian, "lah" sub-fix for us is simply as a way of informal expression, which carries the connotations of : carefree, Not-so-seriously kind of meaning, and its a lay-back way of ending a sentence, instead of a full-stop. (akin to Canadian's "eh" at end of sentences).

I love it when she said welcome to Malaysia... With the local pronounciation of Malaysia... Not malayshia like most foreigners

Kuala Lumpur means muddy confluence in English.It is a place where a river meets another body of water. Gombak river meets Klang river. Lumpur means muddy, so the water is naturally muddy before till now..😊

8:32 That's not a picture of langsat or duku. If I remember correctly, that's a fruit called "mata kucing".

Lillith= langsat or duku Max= put Longan picture.. 😂😂😂😂

Wow thanks for making videos on my country.

Malaysia is just not known to Americans, the whole world else knows

love your interviews Max

Thanks Lilith =)

as a Malaysian I don't actually get along with durian but mangosteen is literally my fav

Indeeed Malaysia is truly Asia, despite of some hate comment from their neighbour. Greetings from Native-Indigenous Khmer in Vietnam.

It's durian season in Malaysia now...come, come to the durian fiesta galore. Black thorn, musang King, tekka, IOI, kampung durian.

it's true we malaysians love thai food too. so delicious

Yep Malaysia is the secret of Asia. Been here in Johor 9 years. Life is far better here in Malaysia! Peaceful, Secure, Low Cost. I give Malaysian Leaders High Marks. Malaysia has a bright future as the Malaysian Workforce Upskills and more Companies invest here. She is correct. Malaysia is unknown in the USA. Even Singapore is not well known to most Americans. Most Americans could not tell you where Singapore is. Borneo, Americans have heard of but most Americans could not tell you that Borneo consists of Two Malaysian Provinces, Brunei and 5 Indonesian Provinces. I have learned a lot about the region because my wife is Chinese Malaysian from Sarawak. Malaysia also has the best Shopping Malls, local food, Chinese Food and even our American favorites. If we only had COSTCO that would round out the list!

Malaysia is like a bigger, cheaper and more chill version of Singapore. Similiar culture but much more chill and relaxed 😂
