yah..from Shenzhen should be around 1K plus...
better straight from SH to KL. I've checked...no more 299RMB, taken most of the 1st deal. They're doing like Air Asia. So, it's RMB1000 now. still...it's cheap.
Welcome to Malaysia!
essen: buy kaya, chili sauce(Heinz or even Kimball), minyak kapak, panadol, magazines(english) and bolster! hahahahhaha...that's what i got from KL |

Ash bolster...haha...yeah, dun tink it can be found outside of Mal/Sg...yeah, n though I can't cook, sambal belachan paste....English books n magazines, maggie mee and indo mee
curious abt Shenzhen...never been there...shd be more comfy over here? As in Cantonese being spoken instead of Shanghainese...
yeah, right after i booked my ticket, MAS raised the fuel surcharge, lucky me ....tat's why its abt RM1000....agree tat its still cheap... |

I ask these people here last time about bolster....they never imagine such pillow. maybe we should open a shop here selling bolster..."Comfy Hug While You're Sleeping"
yah..me too, never stepped into Shenzhen. But heard it's havoc place, like Taiwan. I don't know, we shouldn't believe others until we ourselves see it.
Yah, fuel is high priced now. I thinking to get a motorbike and ride it to work. Driving is costly, heavy traffic and parking fees is expensive. But, I don't think motorcycles that I like is legal here in Shanghai. Arrrggghhhhhh...tension! |

Haha...someone once told me that there are some 15,000 both Mal/Sg here in SH, perhaps, there's a ready market...
yeah, but its supposedly less havoc than Guangzhou...U r right, gotta visit it for ourselves but its prob not anyone's idea of a vacation spot...haha
Yah, prob gonna walk around in KL when I get back...fuel now very expensive
Yeah, just take taxis in SH...not worth the hassle and cost of driving here |

i took the public transport in KL last month when I'm back there...gosh, terrible!!
The Komuter was so slow, no air-cond..people sweating and smell all over. Alamak...really cannot tahan.
The LRT is more efficient. Those to Sungei Wang area. To MidValley, i rather wait until my brother come back from work and drive there.
Taking taxi is hilarious....the driver bring me around. When I scold him.."Ah Ne, nabeh...mana lu bawak I???!!!" He then responded with a shocked-face.."Aiyak, wa ingat lu orang China!"
That's crap man....they'll cheat if you're foreigner? Hahahahaha....what an attitude!
Yah, many Malaysian/Singaporean here in SH. Also in Suzhou...many of them. You should join us for Merdeka Night end of next month.
I might go to Taiwan in October. Go for few days... |

Haha...sounds familiar....Malaysia got a lot of conmen...tipu here, tipu there...in Boleh land, they try to con everybody...Think of the scams being carried out at the highest places of..... 
Yah, the monorail that goes to Sungei Wang area is pretty good during off peak times...I normally take it if i go to B.Bintang area...
Yeah, public transport back home is terrible...its a disgrace...
Hehe...lets sell bolsters to them...Merdeka Night? Hmm....ok, pls keep me posted man...
