Malaysia. It’s so oppressive and incredibly dull. Every time I go there I’m looking to cut my trip short as it’s just so incredibly boring. I hadn’t visited the islands though which I’ve heard are actually a bit more free so I’d make an exception.
Same goes for Singapore - so incredibly dull and boring. The only redeeming feature is the universal theme park and the waterworld show in particular. Get an express ticket on low season and it’s one of the best theme parks in Asia.
Russia would be another one. It’s just fundamentally failed country and while nature can be incredible (shoutout to Kamchatka) it’s culturally dead and I’m never associating with it in any way.
Malaysia is a hard nut to crack, but I worked there for a number of years and eventually came to appreciate it because I learned where the locals go and the interesting parts of the country. They require a car though, so tough to access as a tourist.
Yes I’ve heard the nature can be quite beautiful but at the same time you can go to any other SEA country for similar experience with better everything else so it would be at the bottom of my list of choices just because competition is very compelling here.
