Can I go to Malaysia for a self guided tour without knowing English?

I don't know English at all.,It's more troublesome to pass the customs.。。。 But don't worry, if the customs officer has any questions when you pass through the customs, they will call a Chinese civil servant to communicate with you.

No problem, many people in Malaysia speak Mandarin, Cantonese, and Hokkien, so don't worry! When you arrive in Malaysia, you should have someone who can speak Mandarin to be in charge of reception.

It is recommended to learn a few simple everyday words, in Kota Kinabalu ** will not be able to do it at all, when you go out of the customs, you have to see what the person in front of you do, you can roughly know the meaning of the customs, Kuala Lumpur needs some English.

Passing through customs is not the main trouble, it will be very inconvenient to ask for directions, buy things or even encounter something during the tour. But then again, Chinese make up 24% of the population in Malaysia, and you can meet 1 Chinese person in 4 on the road.

It's okay because you can use Mandarin.

I don't know at all, the second time I went to Malaysia, no one asked me when I passed through customs.

It's still very difficult to know English, so you can just learn it.

I don't know English either, so it seems that the self-guided tour will be more troublesome.

Just hire a translator and bring it over.

Yes. Because Malaysia is a diverse country, there are Malaysians, there are Chinese, people of other races who are already native. The Chinese are occupied, and there are other languages, such as Cantonese, Teochew, Hakka, and Hokkien.

Wait a minute. So communication is not a problem in Malaysia.

Yes, some Malaysians are Chinese, foreigners and Malays, most of them can speak Chinese, English is the official language, it is definitely better to be able to speak.

Malaysia has Chinese, Malay and Indian three races, the main languages are Chinese, Hindi and Malay, they usually speak English, I personally think it is more language-oriented.

The official languages of Malaysia are English and Chinese, but Chinese is widely spoken because of the majority of ethnic Chinese. When I went there to learn English, I personally felt that the language environment was not good. However, friends who have English-native speakers are a different matter.

There are Mandarin speakers, Cantonese speakers, and Malay speakers in Malaysia, but its official language is English. English in Malaysia has a local accent and is not counted as the International Phonetic Alphabet. But if you go there, you don't have a good English, there is no barrier to communication, most people can speak Mandarin.

As for learning English just for the sake of learning English without considering other conditions, I think there are better options.

Suitable for learning English, there are many language schools, and the teaching quality is high, and the fees are reasonable.

The whole world is using English, you say, Malaysia, the first language, English, and then the Chinese diaspora.

Official languages: Malay, English.

Most of them still speak English and can go.

In Malaysia, the official languages are Malay and English. Common language: English, Malay, Mandarin (i.e. Chinese).

Of these, about 13 million people speak Malay as their mother tongue, which is about 52% of the country's population.

Go to Malaysia, life is more convenient, there are many people who know Chinese, English is an official language, in fact, about 40% of people take him as their mother tongue, and even if they are native speakers of other languages, they basically speak English Therefore, it is definitely no problem to learn English, it is more convenient than going directly to English-speaking countries, and when there are communication barriers, you can also jump Chinese, and some people can also understand

Khan There are many Chinese people in Malaysia, they all speak Chinese, but it doesn't mean that you can speak Chinese in everything, after all, there are many more Malays than Chinese. It is recommended that you write down the sentences you use every day in advance in a small notebook, such as "How to get to the subway station?" Something like that.

It's not that I suspect that you can't even communicate the most everyday English, the point is that the Malays are too bad. For example, if you ask the Malay MRT station at the information desk, you don't speak English and he ignores you, and you can't speak English well and he pretends not to understand. What about how you speak English?

He will deliberately point you to other places such as tourist buses, they have a commission, if you complain about him, he can say that you are not good at English and he heard it wrong. Malaysia's security is particularly poor, don't show your money when shopping, take the money in your pocket and then take it out. Don't walk down alleys or back alleys by yourself, even during the day.

There are many "underground places" in the alleys and back alleys, and there are also many robberies, where the robbery is stabbed with a knife and then swaggered away instead of domestic robbery, and escaped with legs or motorcycles. So don't go out at night. Try to go to the food court in the mall for dinner, and don't go to the small restaurant alone.

Try to find a Chinese person when you need help, even if it's your Malay turn in line, you can let the person behind you go first. This will both solve your English problems and reduce the likelihood of being scammed. It may be hard to believe that you have not been to Malaysia, for example, there are many lockers in public places in Kuala Lumpur, you need to flip coins, if you go to a small shop even if there are no customers to spare absolutely no Malay will give you change, you go to a few shops and you will be rejected a few times.

If you ask a Chinese salesperson, you basically don't hesitate to help. Chinese Malaysians are generally simple, easy to get along with, and hospitable, but Kuala Lumpur is mostly Malay.

Anyway, most of the situations just mentioned are concentrated in Malaysia's big cities and commercial cities, and small cities and tourist cities will be relatively better. However, the general environment in Malaysia is that the law and order is particularly poor, and the Malays hate the Malays and Chinese, including Chinese. I hope these words don't intimidate you, as long as you keep a low profile, don't show your name, don't go out alone at night, don't walk the alley, it's okay, at most you'll be fooled, I'm in Singapore, and I often go to Malaysia on weekends or holidays.

Have a great trip.

In fact, there are really a lot of Chinese in Malaysia.

All you need is a normal conversational English

Can you let me know which state city in Malaysia you are traveling to?

After all, that's how I can give you more in-depth information.

If we talk about shooting, it is indeed quite serious in some big cities.

Especially in Johor, which is close to Singapore, if you are wearing a gold bracelet, the robbers will cut off your hands with watermelon knives and rob them!

PS: I am now based in Kuala Lumpur and I am a Penangite.

In Malaysia, you can generally see Chinese people on the road, and you can communicate in Mandarin (Mandarin), so you can rest assured. Of course, you can also use English when you meet other races, and the use is common (especially in big cities), but most of them are pronounced from the British style, and you will also listen to the American style, so there is no problem, and you don't need to prepare a special set of "everyday English". What will appear may be the pronunciation of "not used to listening".

It is to go to Kuala Lumpur International Airport, about 50km away from Yatong Stadium, and you can get to the airport in an hour by Klia Transit, and there is money exchange in the airport.

In fact, Malaysian Chinese can be seen everywhere, if you don't know English, they can understand Chinese.

It is recommended that you do not go to Malaysia at present, the current epidemic situation in Malaysia is very serious, you can search it, it seems that there are almost 10,000 confirmed cases every day, and the risk is very high.

There are three major ethnic groups in Malaysia, the Malays, the Indians, and the Chinese. Malaysia's Chinese language is Malay, so Malay is used in ** departments and official occasions.

The Malays hold state power, the Chinese control the economy, and the Indians also serve in the ** sector. So the country has four languages in circulation: Mandarin, Malay, Hindi, English.

Because it was a British colony, English is also quite popular in Malaysia and is the daily business language of the country.

The local Chinese community generally communicates in Chinese or Mandarin, and local dialects such as Hokkien, Cantonese, Hainanese, Teochew and Fuzhou are also used in daily life.

You can see Chinese people on the streets of Malaysia, basically everyone can speak some Chinese (Mandarin), Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, Teochew, Malay, and English, but one thing is that they are not proficient in a word, they are all half-tones, so you have to mix these kinds of words together, but everyone can understand each other's meaning.

Very few Malays speak Mandarin, but most of them know a little English, as Malay and English are similar.

Indians generally speak Hindi and Malay, but you can also communicate in English.

You can take a taxi (taxi) or grab car to Bukit Jalil at the airport, and it is recommended that the subject find a hotel nearby.

The concert will take place inside the Bukit Jalil Stadium, which is within walking distance of the venue.

The surrounding transportation is convenient, the location is safe, don't worry.

The place to exchange money can go to the mall money bank, and the exchange rate is much the same.

If you don't speak English, it's better to take a taxi, you can choose a Chinese driver, then you can save a lot of time or hit a wall. As for foreign exchange, there is a refund and exchange rate service at the exit of the airport.

You don't know a word of English, and there is no big problem, just remember to bring a translator.

Speak Chinese, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka are OK

Remember that there is a software called Foreign Language Communication, which can translate the words into the language you want to translate

**There are translation machines for sale, ranging from 1000-2000, and they are quite easy to use, I bought one for my mother. Take the world to play.
