Malaysia is famous for ....check it out...
These are some of my observations of Malaysia's lifestyles in the past years....
1) Yellow Light means Green Light. Red Light means ....Green Light also!
2) General Parking means Public Parking. Handicapped Parking means.....Public Parking also!
3) Bargaining like mad in Pasar for 10 or 20 cents discount but later spend more money in KFC than what is being saved!
4) Receiving people's wedding invitation card means receiving a SAMAN!
5) Wearing helmet is "optional" when riding a motorbike!
6) Sometimes, Malaysian motorbike is meant for 4 person (2 adults, 2 children)! A Sandwich Approach!
7) Malaysian Version of "K.I.V (Keep In View)" => "See how lah"!
8) Malaysian Version of "I think it can't be done" => "Cannot meh?"
9) Some people thought pressing the Lift button for more than once will result in the Lift moving faster!
10) Breakfast is taken during Lunch time. Lunch is taken during Tea Time. Dinner is taken during Supper Time!
11) Ipoh Chicken Rice, Penang Laksa, Muar Otak-Otak EVOLVING to Myanmar Chicken Rice, Vietnam Laksa, Indon Otak-Otak. WHY? Coz it is all done by foreign worker nowadays!
12) You can spot an Indian restaurant easily as they are always ended in the "Corner"!
13) Do you know "Kacang Putih" is not white in color?
14) New Year is a celebration for Drinking & Spraying people's car on the street!
15) How do Malaysian Chinese educate their children? Through Counselling, Advice, or Brain Development? NO, NO, NO..... It is through "Rotan braised with Pork"!
16) I can only think of one word in which reading it the other way round would have a direct opposite meaning: Tuhan => Hantu!
17) We order "Maggi goreng" eventhough the mamak only has "Cintan"! Same goes with "Milo panas" despite the mamak serves u Ovaltine!
18) "Buffalo's Eye" => 1/2 cook broiled egg!
19) Bahasa Malaysia is our main national language. FOOD is our second national language!
20) To weigh fruits & vege in hypermalls, people never Queue-Up, they Crowd-Up!
21) Indian kind of Bahasa Malaysia is just rearranging the word structure from a Malay sentence. Eg. Malay says, "Eh, kasi sikit wang lah". Indian says, "Eh, wang sikit kasi lah"!
22) Instead of saying "Duit kopi", we should change to "Duit kopi putih" as White Coffee is the trend now!
Welcome to Malaysia.....
