Tourist Visa My 16 month visa is due again Feb 2014, thinking about Malaysia as a destination

Can anyone offer information on Malaysia, eg have heard of problems getting out of the airport after 9pm due to no taxies.
Also what is there to do there?

Non expensive accommodation but comfortable.

Food

Your info would be very helpful and appreciated .

will have a look at Air Asia for flights

 

I will expand - the place that I have found very cheap air tickets from Cebu to is Kota Kinabalu Malaysia - any members been their?

 

thank you for your reply, was very helpful

 

I just got back from Kota Kinabalu. I didn't like it. You can pm me if that works here.

 

Sorry can't pm you as you are a junior, so what is wrong with K/K? An acquaintance who has been there said it was very good.
As far as flight prices I have done very well, 7 flights for P6k about P850 each, break down: 3 x flights from Duma to cebu - 2 x return flights Cebu to K/K :o
Last 16 month exit was P8k return just to H/K

 

Forgot my throw away ticket to K/K so that's 8 air flights

 

i'm interested in this thread also cuz i'm going to have to renew my tourist visa soon (mumble... mumble...). last renewal trip, i did the 24hr economy thing to HK, that was one miserable experience so this trip, i'm going to treat the little woman to a plane trip to somewhere and spend a day or two before returning to the fils but i don't know where. a bare bones economy luxury-less Check-In type hotel for 2 nites and a clean beach within walking distance would be perfect but....

i don't understand the reason for having to leave the country to renew a tourist visa and i'd gladly have a rep do it for me or... just hand the travel costs over to the govt and stay home and chase the little woman around the house.

i'm hoping to get my exit permit in cebu the day before departure so the KK looks pretty good so far.

any other suggestions?

thanks...
norm : ))~

 

Wont be able to tell of our experience of Malaysia k/k until early March, globetrotters23 gave it the thumbs up, and others that I have mentioned it to have said it is a nice place.
