hi sisses! idk where to post this pero san kayo nagpapapalit ng MYR? is it PHP-USD-MYR? or diretso PHP-MYR na? thanks.

[omneecka]

^Hi sis!

In my case PHP to MYR pinapapalit ko sa Czarina main office sa Ayala Triangle building.

Last week i asked Sanry's naman sa market market on how much if i will buy MYR, 12.50 pesos daw per 1 Ringgit and need to reserve at least 1 day.

😊😊

[pretty_B]

^hi sis! mukha ngang mag PHP-MYR na din kami. nalito lang ako kasi nung nagkorea ako, PHP-USD-KRW naman ako. yes, we're eyeing Czarina din.

ON-TOPIC: panay KL ang punta ng mga sisses natin dito. KK kasi kami eh. hihi. how's the weather kaya by end of july? wag naman sana maulan.

[omneecka]

^hi sis!

Been to KK na rin twice, first was March 2010 Clark-KK-Clark then second nung May 2012 Clark-KK-KL-KK-Clark naman. Maliit lang KK, island hopping and city tour ginawa namin plus overnight stay sa Shangri-la Rasa Ria. Yung second is island hopping lang then chill-chill na lang sa KK.

😊😊

i saw in the news that the sale season will be a little early this year:

1Malaysia GP Sale: 14th March 2015 - 5th April 2015
1Malaysia Mega Sale Carnival: 27th June 2015 - 31st Aug 2015
1Malaysia Year End Sale: 14th November 2015 - 3rd January 2016

sis, mga same dates kaya ang sale for 2016? Estimated travel date kasi namin next year is mga 2nd to 3rd week of May.

[phurple0515]

^ more or less same din sis pero depende kung kelan ang Raya next year for the Mid Year sale (usually June - Aug).

Hi Sis..

How to get to Sunway Lagoon from Imbi? Thanks po!

Bale sis phurple, dapat ba unahin yung batu caves then putrajaya then petronas? doable po ba to ng 1 day? Thanks in advance!

Day 1
Putrajaya
Batu Caves
Petronas and Suria KLCC Mall

[phurple0515]

^ malayo kasi ang Sunway e, usually we take the cab wala kasing train station near it.

depende sis kung gusto niyo unahin ang batu caves or putrajaya, cooler sa putrajaya in the late afternoon kasi.

pwedeng sa petronas na kayo dumiretso after ng batu caves if you want.

[traveldelight]

It's easy to find transport from Singapore to Malacca or Kuala Lumpur from Singapore. There's coach option and also private transfer option.

[Madness]

Worth it ba puntahan ang Sunway Lagoon? Like their vuvuzela ride? For 105 ringgit and only 5 hours?

Tia!

[lavinia13]

mga sis, mas mura po kaya if mag hire na lang ng cab na mag tour around KL instead na mag HOHO pa kami? 3 adults and 1 kid po

[phurple0515]

^ mas mura pag HOHO sis kasi parang ihihire mo ang taxi, talo ka sa traffic (if they go by meter).  Else, baka kontratahin pa kayo, unless sa travel agent talaga kayo mag-book ng city tour.  Minsan RM60 and above per person kinukuha nila na payment.  Mag-travel agent ka na lang sis kesa hire ng taxi.

^^ maganda daw ang Sunway Lagoon.  Lagi ako pumupunta ng Sunway Pyramid Mall pero di ako pumupunta sa Lagoon kasi di naman ako mahilig sa theme parks, hehe. 

[rafael_015]

kung magcacab from Imbi to Susnway Lagoon, mga how much po kaya? TIA!

[phurple0515]

usually pag kami from house mga 20.  siguro mga ganon din sis or max is RM30.  pero minsan me mga taxi na ayaw esp. if from KL kasi me mga daan na inaayos ngayon sa Sunway.  baka mamaya singilin kayo ng mas mahal.

[rafael_015]

thanks sis! worth it ba dumaan ng Merdeka Square? TIA!

[phurple0515]

^ yes, for the structures around it mga luma and intricate mga building designs.

[khymmmm]

Mga sis! magkano ba magagastos sa paglilibot KL/Malaysia kung 3 days? May hotel accommodation na kami sa KLCC and dederecho kami sa SG on the third night. I'm preparing for our budget na kasi na ipapapalit ko sa Czarina.

[phurple0515]

^ depende kasi sis kung ano ang itinerary niyo and ano ang gusto niyo gawin dito within that 3 days.  2,500-3,000 pesos for 3 days na gastos for food is too much na rin.  sabihin mo na lang na 300-500 na lang per day ang allotment mo ng food. 

anyway, today until sunday is the KL Grand Prix so medyo madaming road closure within KL city mismo esp. malapit sa KLCC.  1st time nila ginawa to. 

[lavinia13]

ano pong hostel/hotel ([textspeak!] mura lang po) ang mairerekomenda nyo? [textspeak!] malapit lang sa lahat at pwede sa may kasamang bata at senior citizen..salamat po

[khymmmm]

^sis phurple, tingin ko Batu Caves, Petronas tower, Genting lang kami.. Haha wala pa akong itinerary.
Naresched kasi kami ng AirAsia 1 day earlier than our flight. So hahanap pa kami murang hotel on our first night. Sa Pacific Regency (KLCC) kami magstay on our second night.
Anong masa-suggest mong must-visit dyan sis?
Thank you!
