Which is classier? Beverly Hills or the Hamptons?
FYI, all of these parks never used to have metal fencing but then the pandemic happened so they put the fences up so they can set up entry points to regulate people coming in and out.
Hop over ti Bukit Tunku to see Beverly Hills style houses, set amidst lush green surrounding complete with monkeys crossing the road.. you need a car though to go round that area but well worth the trip
Malaysia klumpur no camp homless.
Some sad history that I hv to acknowledge, Those lake & caves (abandoned mines) coz all the type-C miners ancestors (at industrial level skill sets) are being kick out by my own type & being done "bad" (against woman😭) by iapanese KEMPETAI & local collaborators especially all in perak…😊…except some, who are "protected" by Selangor Royals under "Royal Pewter" & certain type-C business class (proxies of "Dp state") in Klang valley…..😊….only NIHAO PRIVIET Salam from Selangor 🤘
Ampang hilir is not the Beverly hills. In my opinion it is Kenny Hills now called bukit tunku.
We make use of former tin mines for lake gardens. Used to be the world's no 1 tin mining nation. The largest open cast mine is at mines resort mall. So deep, when i was a child, the trucks moving below is the size of model cars hotwheels.
The tunnel mine is at sungei lembing (the world's largest underground tin mine)
Yes that reminds you of Echo Park a little bit in Los Angeles a thousand times bigger.. And you don't have people camping in tents shooting up heroin.. And out of control crime.
The lakes you've seen are quite likely to have been the pits created extracting tin. Easier to plant a few trees around them than fill them up.
Ampang Hilir is definitely not the Beverly Hills of KL, Kenny Hills or Bukit Tunku is. You'd need a car to drive to Kenny Hills to go check out the mansions in Kenny Hills.
I know an American retiree Taylor frm D.C lives there he's pretty regular on Utube i guess Ampang is kindda his stomping ground,well dat goes without sayin coz i used to live there too had wonderful gud memories of dat place,anywy nice content by u mate kippidap
Kenny Hills, Mont Kiara, Bangsar Heights. That's where the higher-end residential areas are. High chance they won't even let u enter.
if you wish to see super rich homes, you could go to Country Heights Damansara, there, you could see super rich homes at that area, not far away from Bandar Utama, Petaling Jaya
Hi Ben, Thanks for sharing your videos. I would like to suggest that you do more videos on US since many of us rarely has the opportunity to visit your country. Most of us learn US through news and cable networks. Lots of them are very negative like shooting accidents, gun violence, etc. Maybe you can do a video on why there is so much violence involving guns in US? Is it safe to visit US? What to do and what not to do? What is the place to avoid? etc. Keep it up Ben. Thanks.
Tasik shah alam much bigger and better lake
Usually the land with the house they are staying have agreement of tenure lease for 99 years old.. also people cannot bring dogs to park because we live in multicultural country.. we are are kindly respect each other and have to follow the laws here when Malaysia ia a Islamic country
There're a lot of abandoned tin mines here n being converted to beautiful lakes n parks in Malaysia. Maybe that is one of them.
Some Malaysian named their home as Villa (followed with a name), eg.Villa Kaseh(love). But others can use Villa for their rental homes,no offence.
No segregation of rich, medium or poor housing areas here, mostly mixed . If you have the budget, you can build a castle on your own land, while your neighbours didn't really mind with it.
Some rebuilt better modern homes , some just maintain their old place.
Most of the park are not allow dogs…. Muslim community
Malaysia is Islamic country, Dogs are rarely seen in the park
You have to go to a dog friendly park in order for the owners to bring them.
Well done.
Depends on your property's title. Some are leasehold for 99 years or freehold (yours permanently)
Bukit Tunku or Kenny Hills would be more accurate
kl city centre is very walkable i would say but if you step out of that, you get pretty car centric infrastructure
really enjoy your walk+tour in kl vlog, please do more in different places 🙏
The beverly hills of Malaysia was and I believe still is in Bangsar & Bukit Tunku (Kenny Hills).
Ampang Hilir is actually an area where the embassies of most nations resides…
Expats of mostly westerns are in Mont Kiara.
Korean expats normally in Ampang, even though they slowly move to Mont Kiara as well.
Japanese expats with children can be found in Ara Damansara, but others are scattered, but mostly in Mont Kiara
Indonesian foreign workers gathered mostly in Chow Kit & part of Kampung Baru
Bangladeshis, Nepalis & Rohingyas are mostly in Masjid Jamek area
Pakistanis are in Jalan Pahang, just next to Indonesians area, while they are scattered all over too…
"absolutely no way to get to the other side of the road". there's a literal pedestrian bridge @23:00 mister.
Sorry this isn't the Beverly Hills of KL .. there are more chic and cool.places in KL such as Bangsar, Bukit Bandar Raya, Mont Kiara, Petaling Jaya, Pantai Hills and Damansara Heights. I'm Asian American.
Hi Ben, at 11:18 you can see 3 blocks of high rise condominium. The condominium is called Sri Angsana Hilir Condominium and there's a bit of backstory to that condominium. If you look closer, one of the building is actually not painted like the other two. And the reason is because it is considered unfit to be occupied. So the building is left abandoned while the other is being occupied by residents. Over the years, that building has been a hub for some shady shit. There's a lot of interesting stories to it if you want to look it up.
This was the place i had my wedding ceremony. if you noticed there is a big hall there. that was where i got married❤ so proud hearing u talking about this place
