Every state in Malaysia has its own unique charm, from fascinating tourist spots and delicious local cuisines to distinctive dialects.
In fact, its often easy to tell which state a person is from simply by the way they speak. This is especially true for people from the northern region, as well as Sabah and Sarawak, where the local dialects are notably unique and recognizable.
Recently, a heartwarming video went viral, capturing a woman's excitement upon discovering that her e-hailing driver shared the same hometown as her. The interaction quickly caught the attention of many on social media.
