Khairul Aming clarified that he started receiving several invitations from other countries after his cooking video series in New Zealand went viral.

The famous influencer, Khairul Aming, is not only popular in Malaysia but has also successfully attracted the attention of people in New Zealand after launching his cooking series there.

Who would have thought that Khairul Aming and his friends’ hard work recording cooking videos in New Zealand would eventually pay off, leading to a visit from New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Christopher Luxon.

Christopher met Khairul Aming in Kuala Lumpur as a sign of appreciation from New Zealand for choosing the country as the location for his cooking videos.

Here’s Why Khairul Aming Chooses to Create Cooking Content Abroad

In a video reposted on TikTok (@khairulamingfans_), Khairul Aming explained that he has received inquiries from certain parties questioning why he chooses to promote foreign countries over Malaysia.

Calmly, Khairul Aming stated that he began receiving invitations from other countries after his cooking video series in New Zealand went viral.

“The country we are going to in two weeks is already locked in, that one is confirmed. We have another country that is still being arranged,” he said.

He further explained that he wants to expand his opportunities globally, which indirectly brings Malaysia’s name to the international stage.

“I am trying to build my reputation on an international level. Once I expand globally, I will bring Malaysia along with me. That’s what we want.

“If we only do it in Malaysia, it’s good for Malaysians as well. But it’s time for us to try and market outside as well,” Khairul Aming said.

Despite his efforts to establish a name abroad, this entrepreneur continues to support local products.

“I’m the biggest supporter of local already. I support local businesses, dining out, and even when I travel, I support local. I’ve even become a local TikTok Shop icon. What more local stuff haven’t we tried?” he said.

At the end of the video, Khairul Aming expressed his hope that the public would provide positive support for his efforts to expand internationally.

“Please give support. Don’t just criticize me as soon as I try to do something,” Khairul Aming lamented.
