Jakarta – Dont judge the book by it’s cover alias do not see anything from the outside only. This phrase seems appropriate to describe the house of a grandfather in Malaysia, Baharuddin Mamat. From the outside, Baharuddin Mamat’s house looks like a rundown, rundown shack, but the inside looks like a five-star hotel.
Quoted from Mstar, Baharuddin Mamat’s house in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia went viral in the middle of last year.
You are guaranteed not to think that the inside of Baharuddin Mamat’s house is very luxurious. The outside of this house looks like a rickety shack surrounded by a corrugated zinc covering.
In front of the house, there appears to be an old blue motorbike parked. Boards and other items were left lying around in the yard. An unsightly sight.

Described in the viral video, once you enter the house, you can see a different view. Like earth and sky. The interior of the house has gold accents that seem luxurious. The walls inside are made of plywood, also zinc accented with gold. The floor of his house was covered with ceramics. It’s so much different from the ‘package’ that is

In addition, the house, which looks like a rickety hut from the outside, is also equipped with air conditioning and a computer. Netizens did not expect this either.
Quoted from Wolipop, this 66-year-old man built the house three years ago as a place to rest and pray for himself and the workers. The house is equipped with a prayer room, reading area, rest area, and a bathroom with a bathtub like a five-star hotel.

“The cost of building this house is around RM 11,000 or around Rp. 36 million. Where is RM 7,000 or around Rp. 23 million just for the contents of the bathroom,” said Baharuddin Mamat.
The house belonging to Baharuddin Mamat is nicknamed ‘Pondok Jerenggeng’. The house is equipped with a bookshelf, computer, sound system for karaoke with a WiFi connection. The man who is better known as ‘Pok Din Lejeng’ added gold accents to his house.
It got inspiration from the palace belonging to the Sultan of Brunei Darussalam, Hassanal Bolkiah. “I was amazed by the beauty and luxury of the Sultan of Brunei’s palace when I watched it on YouTube. I immediately painted and used gold decorations,” explained Baharuddin.
Netizens generally ask what is the reason for Baharuddin making the outside of his house look simple. He answered that the inside of the house was more important to him.

“Inside it is decorated beautifully and luxuriously for my own satisfaction. However, this house can only be used by workers to rest, including customers who want to use the toilet and pray,” he said.
The man from Kampung Bukit Besar in Kuala Terengganu, Malaysia was touched when the video of his house went viral on social media and flooded praise from netizens.
In his daily life, Baharuddin has been running a food stall for sour and spicy dishes since four years ago. He wants to have a small villa in the future.
