"It is important to be mindful of cultural norms when visiting Shah Alam. It is considered disrespectful to wear revealing clothing, such as shorts or tank tops, in public. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local customs and to show respect for religious sites and practices. It is also important to be aware of the local language and to avoid speaking loudly or using offensive language.
