Public Burping as a Sign of Enjoyment

While public burping is often frowned upon in many countries, it carries a different connotation in Malaysia. In Malaysian culture, burping after a meal signifies that you thoroughly enjoyed your food.

So, if you happen to witness people burping after a meal, even at upscale restaurants in Malaysia, there’s no need to be offended or irritated. It’s a common and culturally accepted practice in the country.
