LOCAL CUSTOMS & LANGUAGE

Malaysians dress well, even for just going to the mall. Smart casual is the norm.  Dress modestly when possible. Even though down-town Kuala Lumpur is a modern city, your housing family's neighbourhood may not be accustomed to short-shorts or bare shoulders. 

Avoid using your left hand to give or receive items nor raise it in greeting. The left hand is considered unclean in Malaysian culture and to use it as above is a great insult. Open displays of anger and displeasure are frowned upon. If you find yourself in a frustrating situation, take a deep breath, smile, excuse yourself (say, “maaf”), walk away to calm down and return when you feel composed.

English has become a universal language among city-dwellers in KL which has made communication easy for travellers. 

Some of these common phrases can put a smile on someone's face during your visit:

Please - Sila

Thank you - Terima Kasih

You're welcome - Sama-sama

Yes - Ya

No - Tidak

Good morning - Selamat pagi

Good evening/night - Selamat malam

How are you? - Apa khabar

I'm well - Khabar baik

Excuse me - Maafkan saya

Sorry - Maaf

I do not understand - Saya tidak faham

It's okay - Tak apa

Goodbye - Selamat tinggal (you are leaving) / Selamat jalan (you are staying)
