Its seems Malaysia has more then 2 million registered waze users,  well Waze is a usefull application that make use of our "Expensive" Smart Phone capabilities,  It marries Mobile Data with GPS location enabling our smart phone to function in a interesting manner, guiding our travels in the manner we have set, giving us a estimated arrival time and more importantly avoiding traffic heavy locations.  Result is a uneventful journey, and even being more knowledgeable about alternative routes.  
      
An interesting and Very useful unknown feature to have in Waze, is to display your Current GPS Coordinates on top of the Waze Screen.  This way you can have a record of your actual location for what ever purpose you require. I discoverer this feature when i join an Waze group in Facebook, where i started to see GPS coordinates displayed right on top of the screen in screenshots

To get this type in the following at the search box  ##@coord  this will show or hide your current gps locations.  This information is from https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Search_codes


This is a feature that Waze call Search codes, other codes include, display username, set language to English etc.
