| Malacca Zoo |
| 2009-06-04 03:34:15 |
Enjoy 5% of the Malayan Tiger population in the Malacca Zoo! This either means:
Malacca Zoo is huge to host 5% of the entire tiger population, or
the Malayan Tiger population is dwindling big time.
Unfortunately it’s the latter: there are less than 600 Malayan tigers in the wild and this number keeps on decreasing due to:

| Tony’s guest house |
| 2009-04-13 22:08:41 |
Tony’s guest house must be backpackers paradise: a huge bedroom with 2 single beds will only cost you RM22 or less than $7. Accommodation in Malaysia can be both cheap & good!
Unfortunately, we aren’t backpackers, so we weren’t too happy to share common bathrooms and toilets. But this budget hotel was good for the [...]...

| 2009-03-16 04:53:17 |
Save tenfold by applying for MM2H: a Malaysia tourist visa with multiple entries. How? By cutting out the middleman and applying personally.
Unlike me who had to fork out more than tenfold the duty stamps of my MM2H visa because I was obliged to use an official agency, you can now apply personally to get the [...]...

| Heeren House |
| 2009-02-20 20:37:56 |
English-style B&B Heeren House gives you a summary of modern Malaysia:
most friendly and helpful owners,
charging premium prices but not delivering up to the promise
service and facilities having seen better times.
I would have loved if Heeren House would re-plaster their rooms. But in stead you get a clear view (as there are no [...]...
