Eye-opener! Look at the happy life with four wives.

The world is big, and there is no wonder. If you don't go out and have a look, you think what you see is the whole world. After going out, I found that ten miles are different, not to mention the world is so big. Every place, rich or poor, black or white, has its own unique customs. Finding that the world looks different may be the main reason that attracts us to go out and have a look.

Looking at the novelty abroad, let's take a quick look at the difference between Malaysia, a Southeast Asian country, and us.

1, incredible-Malays who can marry four wives

A man can legally marry four wives, which is the most curious and incomprehensible thing for people in our monogamous country, but in Malaysia, Malay men are so blessed. In fact, not only Malaysia, but also many Arab countries in the world are still practicing polygamy.

Senegal, Uganda, Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Yemen, United Arab Emirates, etc. Their polygamy stems from traditional religious beliefs, and also reflects the superiority of men and the status of women in society. -Get close to Malays in Malaysia and see incredible family life.

Malaysia is a multi-ethnic country, mainly composed of Malays, Chinese, Indians and some aborigines. This is a country with a high degree of integration of culture, faith and race. The main ethnic group is Malays, with Malays accounting for 50% and Chinese accounting for 20%.

Malays believe in Islam. According to Islam, Muslims can marry two or four wives. On various occasions in Malaysia, you will often see Malay family teams wrapped in headscarves and robes, big and small, old and young, with a man leading many women and children.

They get along well, help each other, and often take photos with each other. It is a close relationship of the whole family, which confuses us.

In Malaysia, it is very easy to distinguish between China people, Indians and Malays, which can be seen at a glance from their looks, skin color and clothes. As long as you see a woman wrapped in a long skirt and a headscarf, it must be a Malay woman. Malay women work in all fields, including airports, shopping malls and hotels.

I don't understand why Malay women dress like this in Malaysia, where the climate is very hot and it is summer all year round. It originated from religious belief. Islam stipulates that women are ashamed except for their faces and hands, and can't be seen by men who are not close relatives, so all the Malay women you see are dressed like that.

Life is destined to wait for a husband with another woman. On such a hot day, we have to wrap ourselves up like that all our lives, and we can't release our beauty to the fullest. Thinking about their lives, we have more love and sympathy in our hearts and feel how lucky and happy we are.

These young faces look a little messy and dare not decide which country or nationality they belong to.

No matter which religion in the world, there are always so many rules that believers need to abide by. Muslims in Islam also have various religious rules and taboos. They have to pray five times a day. They can't drink, gamble or eat pork.

The coach driver who drives us is Malay. Since we joined the Chinese restaurant of China as a China team, he always went out to eat in Malay restaurant.

Because Malays are the majority in Malaysia, eating pork and drinking in Malaysia is also a luxury. I saw in a shop that a kilo of pork is 7-80 yuan, and a bottle of beer costs tens of yuan, so in Malaysia, I ordered a plate of pork before drinking.

That price is also quite expensive, which is not affordable for ordinary people. So during those days in Malaysia, even in Chinese restaurants, we ate chicken or chicken every day, and we couldn't eat it in the end. Suddenly want to eat instant noodles with Master Kong, you can look at the price of instant noodles in the restaurant.

The bottled noodles of Master Kong, which we can buy at home for 4 yuan, cost more than 20 yuan here. After exporting here, the price has doubled. If I don't go abroad, I don't know why RMB is so cheap-it doesn't taste like money.

Our driver's master is a Malay in his fifties, with a long beard and pigtails. He looks like a busker. Because of different languages, we basically didn't communicate with him all the time, but every time we got on and off the bus, he would smile or nod at us and take the luggage into the hotel.

He will help each of us to pull the luggage out of the carriage, and he feels like a very kind person. I heard that he was a Malay, and everyone became interested in the question of how many wives he had. I didn't know him well at first, so I was afraid to ask the team leader about him. I became familiar with it later. I still couldn't hold back the topic and raised the mountain cynically.

Our leader is the fourth generation Malaysian Chinese, surnamed Chen, in her thirties, young and beautiful, and she is the mother of two children. She is from Guangdong and has been to China many times. The Chinese she speaks is very standard and magnetic, and her voice is very nice and kind. We all like her. Unable to communicate with Malay drivers, everyone urged her to ask.

Master Malay driver told us shyly that he had three wives and seven children. Ha, we are really relieved to hear this news-Emma, how terrible it would be to raise so many children in China. Xiao Chen, the beautiful tour leader said, this is not too much. Her neighbor's uncle has four wives, more than 20 children and more than 40 grandchildren, even he doesn't recognize himself.

She said that every time she was introduced to who this was and who that was, she was anxious to tell her uncle that there was no need to introduce it, because there were too many families to remember clearly. Not only do we find it incredible, but China and Indians living there also find it a headache to have so many wives and children.

In fact, not all Malay men in Malaysia can marry four wives. Only men with good conditions in all aspects will be able to support such a large family. Malay men are proud of their many family members, but also benefit from the high welfare treatment of the government, which will make their children and wives live well.

Every time I flash across the delicate faces of women wearing headscarves, I have a strange feeling. Maybe this lifestyle has been flowing in their blood for generations. With the rapid development of modern civilization today, who knows that their hearts have never wavered and envied our monogamous family life?

Someone was very interested and asked if it was possible to marry four wives as a Malaysian citizen. The answer is of course "no". In Malaysia, only Malay men who believe in Islam are allowed. China and Indians in China are monogamous if they want to marry two or four wives.

You must first become a Muslim, change your name to a Malay name, and then everything will be handled according to Islamic rules. Children will be Malays in the future. Therefore, few people in China have two or four wives, and because of this, their ancestors will cease to exist.

In Independence Square, Malaysia, a 30-year-old man took his two wives and children out to take photos.

2. Tourism in Malaysia-Is it expensive to shop in Malaysia for different people from China?

This is a concern of most China tourists. According to the real-time exchange rate of Bank of China, 1 Malaysian ringgit = 1.5985 RMB, that is, 1 RMB = RM 0.6256. Compared with 0.2 yuan, shopping in Malaysia is relatively cheap.

I feel that the prices of some items are similar to those of domestic supermarkets. There is a saying in Malaysia that rich Malaysian women will go to Singapore to buy international luxury goods, and ordinary Singaporeans will go to Malaysia to buy daily necessities.

In China, people spend RMB to buy some daily necessities. If they avoid scenic spots and airports, the prices are generally not expensive. I also found two economical bottles of Malaysian chocolate in the duty-free shop at Kuala Lumpur airport.

About visas: Individual tourists are required to travel to Malaysia with their personal passports and valid Malaysian visas, which are valid for 3 months and can stay for 30 days at a time. Handling is also relatively simple, valid passport, ID card, photo, form filling and visa fee can be settled in a few days.

On language problems: there are many Chinese in Malaysia, and the basic problem of speaking Chinese when you see Chinese faces; If you meet Indians and Malays, if your English is really poor, ask in Chinese to see if they can understand you, especially in scenic spots, where a large number of China people are received all the year round.

Generally speaking, simple Chinese; If he doesn't understand, he will dig out the English in your head; If you still don't understand, guess with the last gesture. I have been to several countries in Southeast Asia, whether shopping malls or scenic spots, and the things sold are basically clearly marked. What do you want to buy? Look after things and prices.

The transaction can be completed without verbal communication. If you ask for directions and don't know what the goods are, you can download Baidu Translation or Google Google Search Engine on your mobile phone and input English or Chinese, so you can automatically choose to switch to multiple languages. It is a necessary software for foreign travel mobile phones, which can help you a lot.

About foreign wifi: Now the world is a global village, and wifi is in hand, which one is close at hand. When a person goes to a country, he can buy his own WIFI card. If you go to many countries, you can rent a global WIFI roaming treasure online, which can be used in many countries at the same time. Prices are generally calculated by the day.

It's about 20-30 yuan a day, but the airport can be refunded, which is very convenient. I use Road Dog Global wifi, and the signal is very good. As long as you can surf the internet, you can contact your family and friends anytime and anywhere, and you will be practical when you go. Traveling abroad, what money can be saved, this roaming treasure must not be saved.

About currency exchange: Kuala Lumpur International Airport in Malaysia has a bank foreign currency exchange office, and there are many ATMs. There are few shopping malls or small shops in Malaysia that can directly accept RMB. It is best to exchange a small amount of foreign currency for daily consumption first. Shopping malls and duty-free shops can swipe their cards. Please note that UnionPay cards can not be used everywhere. VISA card is very popular in Malaysia, and there is a certain handling fee for swiping it.

About tipping: tipping is not common in Malaysia. If the bill indicates that there is an extra service charge, a service charge of about 10% is required.

About time difference: The time in Malaysia and Singapore is the same as that in China, and there is no time difference.

3. The traffic direction in Malaysia is completely opposite to that in China.

1) Malaysian cars drive on the right and on the left, which is consistent with Thailand and Singapore, so it is completely opposite to China. Foreign tourists need an international driver's license to drive on the road

2) Without an international driver's license, we don't have to worry about driving habits, but the traffic when crossing the road or shopping is also a big trouble. Because we used to drive on the right when we were young in China, it's really hard for you to change suddenly. Sometimes walking is the right way, and sometimes crossing the road will be confusing. This is very dangerous, so we must pay special attention to how to go and which way to go in countries with inconsistent traffic.

3) Foreign motorcycles-faster than cars. It's scary to watch motorcycles running in cars in Thailand and Malaysia. Their driveway is generally not as wide as ours. Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, and Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia, are also famous cities in Asia with narrow roads. They don't have our bicycles and electric cars.

Besides cars, motorcycles also run on the road. Strangely, their motorcycle does not go left or right, but runs in the middle of the car In the morning and evening rush hours, they often see motorcycle drivers wearing helmets galloping past the cars like running water. Those cars never seem to be in a hurry. Even if there is a traffic jam for an hour and a half, they won't see any overtaking or honking.

Compared with cars, motorcycles that fly as light as geese are a little impatient. That technology is actually a lever. If there is a small gap, it will drill through and disappear in the distance. The tacit understanding between cars and motorcycles makes us feel very incredible. At the same time, remind us that when crossing the road, we must be careful of motorcycles that may run out of the car at any time.

4. Drunk in a sunny day in Malaysia!

Malaysia is located near the equator, which is hot and rainy all the year round. The temperature difference between a year and a day is very small, and the average annual temperature is between 26-29℃. Due to the climate, it rains almost every day in Malaysia, and it comes and goes quickly. Malaysia is a country with dense vegetation, trees and flowers everywhere, and there is almost no pollution.

What we see in our eyes is brand-new, even if the century-old building looks so new and clean. For the worsening air in China, even the occasional sight of blue sky and white clouds is a luxury. When I came to Southeast Asia, every day when the blue sky and white clouds were flying was like a dream.

It is said that the cars here never enter any car wash shop, because there is no dust, every day a rain will wash the cars clean, so every car you see on the road looks like it has just been washed.

5, Malaysian oil prices, let us-tears!

In Malaysia, except for tourist buses, local cars run on the road, and buses and taxis are rare. Only in Kuala Lumpur, the capital, can you see taxis occasionally. Their taxis are not charged by mileage, but by time, so taking a taxi in Malaysia is a luxury. Traffic jams will make you more worried, but the money flowing out is blocked.

When I went to Malaysia, I envied the price of gasoline, which was less than 2 Malaysian ringgit, or about 3 RMB. It is also found that the annual inspection mark posted on the car costs RM 10 (about RMB 15 yuan); Domestic cars are also quite cheap. It is not difficult to understand why there are fewer local taxis, because as long as Malaysians are adults, almost every family has several cars and there is no need for taxis at all.

Malaysian tourist buses are also quite luxurious, with gaudy interiors, which are quite clean and spacious, just like sitting in the first-class seat of China high-speed rail.

There is another strange thing in Malaysia. The more toll stations pay, the lower the toll, which is completely contrary to our country.

6. The power sockets in Malaysia are different from those in our country.

Malaysia socket is a three-hole British standard socket with a voltage of 220-240V V. You need to buy a conversion plug to use it, or you can buy it locally.

7. Tickets for tourist attractions in Malaysia-so cheap.

Genting highlands is a Malaysian tourist summer resort and the largest plateau summer resort in Southeast Asia. From Genting Cable Car Station at the foot of the mountain, climb the 3.38km long genting highlands Cable Car.

It takes about 15 minutes to reach the top of the mountain, and only RM 6.4 for one way, which is about RMB 10 yuan. It is found that Malaysia's tourism is basically free except for relatively large scenic spots, and the price is enviable compared with our domestic tickets of several hundred yuan.

Everywhere is lush, flowers are blooming, and Malaysia is fresh and clean.

8, Malaysia tourist attractions-different.

What do you want to see in Malaysia? There are the famous Kuala Lumpur Twin Towers, National Mosque, Penang, Langkawi, Malacca, Sabah and so on. Malaysia, known as the country of thousands of islands, is a beautiful island, and the resorts on the island are also very good. Sabah is hot and beautiful now. The places shown in the following photos don't need tickets. They are well worth seeing, and they are also places frequented by China tourists.

1) The Dutch Red House in Malacca is a must-see for tourists. The Dutch Red House, located on the bank of Malacca, is the oldest Dutch building in Southeast Asia and was originally the residence of the Dutch Governor. Because the walls and wooden doors are red, the locals call it "red house". The building materials were specially built by the Dutch colonial government at that time with red bricks shipped from the Netherlands.

Tourists from all over the world like to stop and take pictures in front of the Red Chamber Monument in the Netherlands.

The ancient European architecture and Chinese rickshaws constitute the unique scenery of the Dutch Red Chamber Square in Malacca.

These rickshaws decorated with flowers in the square can take you around nearby, not far away, and the price is not expensive, so you can enjoy them like a princess.

2) St. Paul's Church

St Paul's Church is the symbol of Malacca. It was built by the Portuguese on a short hill in the fortress of Malacca, facing the boundless and charming Straits of Malacca. The famous missionary San Francesco is buried here. In front of the church, there is a statue of Father St. Fang Zige.

3) Water Mosque

The beautiful Pink Water Mosque, located in Lake Prince, Malaysia, is world-famous and one of the largest mosques in Malaysia at present, which can accommodate more than 10,000 people at the same time. Visitors can visit the church, but they must change into the red robe of the mosque before entering the church area. So in this square, all you see are red shirts.

Female tourists should also dress up as Malays and put on their hats.

4) Office of the Prime Minister of Malaysia

The state religion of Malaysia is Islam, so most of the main government buildings are in this Arabic style. This green dome building hidden behind a tree is the office of the Prime Minister of Malaysia. Visitors can visit and take photos in the square in front of the Prime Minister's Office.

5) National Palace

Malaysia's National Palace is the residence where the current king works and rests. Many court entertainments, banquets and celebrations are also held here. In addition, every day visitors can watch the changing ceremony of the palace guards here. Malaysia's head of state changes every five years, so the national palace will change its owner every five years. It is said that it is to see if the king is at home and the national flag. Visitors can only look through the door and can't go in.

6) Kuala Lumpur Monument to Heroes

This brass monument was built to commemorate the martyrs who died for their country. It is also one of the largest independent sculptures in the world. Designed by the famous American sculptor Wilton and cast in Italy.

From all angles, the view here is beautiful.

7) Malaysia Independence Square

It is the place where Malaysia celebrates its National Day every year. On August 3 1957, the Malaysian flag was raised here for the first time, and Malaysia became independent from British rule.

The strange buildings, lush vegetation and beautiful scenery here attract many tourists to take pictures, play or sit on the grass to have a rest.

8) Kuala Lumpur Twin Towers

The Petronas Petronas Petronas Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur are 452 meters high and 88 floors above ground. It is the tallest twin towers and the fifth tallest building in the world. The Twin Towers and the adjacent Kuala Lumpur Tower are both famous landmarks and symbols of Kuala Lumpur. Everyone who comes to Kuala Lumpur must see this world-famous tower with their own eyes. It will be brighter when the light is turned on at night.

9) genting highlands

Malaysia is located on the equator, and it is very hot all year round. Is there a summer resort in Malaysia? Yes, it is located in genting highlands, at an altitude of 1800 meters. It is the largest plateau summer resort in Southeast Asia. The mountains overlap here, the trees are lush, the flowers are lush, and the air is fresh and pleasant.

Surrounded by clouds, it is like Penglai Xiange in the sea of clouds and a mirage. When you come here, you must first store your luggage at the foot of the mountain and put on long-sleeved clothes to keep out the cold. The hotel at the top of the mountain has no air conditioning. It really takes two days to reach the top of the mountain by cable car I was sweating all the time, and suddenly the wind blew me into a cold sweat. I'm still a little cold in long sleeves.

The cable car leaves from the floor, takes the guests to the top of the mountain, and then gets off the floor. It feels like a great design.

Genting highland can be reached by bus or cable car from the foot of the mountain. You only need to spend 10 RMB cable car to take you directly to the plateau building, which is very convenient. As the cable car slowly rises, exotic flowers and plants unique to Malaysia suddenly appear in front of you. Overlooking the tropical rainforest landscape at your feet, you often see clouds around the mountainside, just like entering a fairyland.

Staying in the biggest hotel in the world, afraid to go out. How big is the biggest hotel in the world? -There are 734 1 room. It is located at the top of the mountain in genting highlands. There are five luxury hotels with different styles on the mountain, with more than 65,438+0,000 comfortable rooms and apartments, more than 80 retail stores and 86 restaurants in the building.

There is one of the four largest casinos in the world. In such a huge, luxurious and crowded supermarket building, it is not easy to find your own room from thousands of rooms. So when I entered the room at night, I dared not come out again. It's too big inside.

There are often star concerts in Genting and Yunxing theaters here. Genting Highland is a super comprehensive business district, but this area is all built on the floor.

Matters needing attention in Malaysia tourism-

Malaysians are very enthusiastic and pay great attention to etiquette, so you must respect your elders when you come to Malaysia and pay attention to manners when you visit local people's homes.

1) You must take off your shoes before entering any place of prayer, such as going back to church and temple.

2) If you want to take photos in churches or other places of religious worship, you must obtain the permission of the administrator in advance.

3) Malays in Malaysia don't drink or eat pork, so they should respect local customs.

4) Take sunscreen and umbrella, and pay attention to sun protection.

5) Don't talk loudly in public.

6) Gambling is prohibited anywhere in Malaysia, except for casinos permitted by the state. Please do as the Romans do and abide by local laws.
