I am Malaysian residing in Seri Kembangan, Selangor state only minutes away from KL. I've been to Cameron Highlands about 13 or 14 times in my entire life. And I never get tired of it!๐ŸฅฐPeople always tell me that these days the weather in Cameron Highlands not as cool as it used to be which I beg to disagree. The weather is still as cool as the first time I went at 12. A relative of mine bought a house in Cameron Highlands. Btw, there are other hill resorts in Peninsular Malaysia besides C Highlands (Pahang), like Genting Highlands (Pahang) (my least favorite for some reasons), Fraser's Hill (Pahang), Larut Hills formely Maxwell Hills(Perak), Penang Hill (Penang), Gunung Jerai (Kedah).

Well, for me is not as cold like it was supposed to be.. maybe with your feeling but not mine, I am 39 this year, i am living near medan gopeng when bus main hub in that area, i started like taking bus to cameroon leisurely..... my late father is the one who manage the ingenious community in camerron highland underJHEOA (goverment) at that time. Since child always followed my late father to fetch mineral water from the mountain on the way to cameroon highland. I can confirm the tempreture is not cold as you feel...is getting warm and warmer ... i am very sensitive with tempreture, so my sensivity is more accurate.. i knew very much the different. As for your information...i also work 2 year in Genting highland.... ... if i not know the different is absolute ..no.

@willsmith39
@willsmith39 3 ะฐะน ะฑาฑั€ั‹ะฝ
I'd absolutely agree that CH is definitely best avoided on public holidays and weekends when it can be an absolute nightmare getting in and out due to the tourist influx. But honestly as someone who lived there for an extended period of time and is planning to retire there it's not in any way a deal breaker for me personally as I prefer to just stay around my area, at home and go for walks etc on the weekend. If I had to commute a lot back and forth then yes traffic is a serious consideration. But nowhere is perfect and CH ticks so many boxes for me. It's peaceful, so cool I rarely use Aircon, it's very inexpensive and then it being Malaysia you have all the usual advantages of safety, good infrastructure, excellent health care and dental, everyone speaks English etc. For me Vietnam is nice to visit but still too underdeveloped and chaotic. The air pollution is 6 x WHO safe levels. Even when I visited Dalat it was smoggy, the air quality in CH is generally excellent. It's all personal choice at the end of the day of course. For a lot of people the noise and chaos of Vietnam and Cambodia is what makes it exciting. It's very vibrant. They would find CH frankly a bit dull. Boring even. But for me boring is good ๐Ÿ˜‚

Okay, best guideline and info travel vlog I've seen, no doubt. Reasons: You are both intelligent, perceptive, very well spoken, and experienced in life. I wonder if there is a writing background, given the care in expressing your thoughts. Also, when you interact there is an equality, a wokeness that I love. I have problems with travel vlogs done by couples where the man always needs to correct or butt in. You are both beautiful and love you both. A great find for me. I'm thinking DaNang to settle in long-term, but now you got me thinking.

One area you don't cover on the visas for the countries you review is a marriage visa. In some countries if you marry a local you are in, others like Thailand you still need to show proof of income at the same rate if you were not married.

Correct dan, take sarawak mm2h and stay there 30 days. Then move around in peninsula in other months. I heard agents for mm2h need to re-register, so the peninsula is hitting a wall. Tourism ministry is causing this bottleneck

Dan I love you and your videos. But there were some serious mistakes in your descriptions of the visa requirements. For the peninsula one (which is currently suspended) they require a minimum monthly income of $10K USD. You stated there was none. That crazy expensive minimum income is why virtually no retires can afford the peninsula/federal MM2H. Also for the Sarawak one you stated the residency is 30 days/month. Later you correctly stated that it was 30 days/year. Finally for the fixed deposit it has to be in a Sarawak bank for the Sarawak MM2H and a Sabah bank for the Sabah MM2H. It cannot be elsewhere in Malaysia. Otherwise great video as always! I am pretty knowledgeable since I have the Sarawak MM2H. Your videos really helped to inspire me to finally leave my job in the US and move to Malaysia just 6 weeks ago at age 54.

What did you mean when you said they are starting to crack down on visa runs? Visa runs are not illegal. So long as you exit by your exit date you can legally reenter at any time. But I do know that sometimes for political reasons (or to get bribes) immigration officials may start to hassle people who return on a tourist visa / visa exemption. What happened to the expats you talked to when they tried to return on a visa run? Were they actually denied entrance or did they just encounter an official who hassled them? I am planning to come to rent a place there for six-nine months, so if I really can't exit and reenter every 90 days I will need to change my plans.

A person can leave the country & return โ€ฆ..but back to back โ€œvisa runsโ€ are seen by immigration as an abuse of the system. In Malaysia itโ€™s not a Visa ..itโ€™s a social visit pass & visitors staying long term are suspected of working illegally or simply avoiding the MM2H process that actually allows long term stays. Iโ€™ve been doing rotational countries for 12 years , so 90 days here , 90 days there etc โ€ฆโ€ฆby the time you get back to the starting point , it could be 9 months since theyโ€™ve seen you. You could flick between Thailand , Malaysia, Vietnam , Cambodia โ€ฆ.all within a short cheap flight. Some benefits to that as wellโ€ฆ.your not grounded in one place long enough to get โ€œattachedโ€ to contingent liabilities.

What you didn't touch on, was the driving in Cameron Highlands; two lane tarmac with not much more than 100 yard straight-a ways, everything else is a curve. The locals passing on blind curves, which are everywhere. The driving there, is not for the faint of heart.
