Malaysia: A holiday destination part 3

Okay so the mustard rings are the parts of Malaysia that Paula and I will be traveling to. Although the location of Cameron Highlands is something that I could be making up entirely (Paula, am I making it up?). I don't know what's in Ipoh but apparently Michelle Yeoh is from there.

Anyway, I finally got leave approval an hour before I left the office last night. So a lot of woohoos are in order. It is for realz: I set off tomorrow morning!

I have all these expenses and I haven't even left yet! Okay this is the useful-info-for-the-budget-traveler section:

Budget: USD 500 / PHP 24,700 / MYR 1,770
Spent so far
(plane tickets): USD 106 / PHP 5,200 / MYR 375

Expected expenses (since I won't be able to post for the next few days):
Shuttle to Clark, Air Asia airport: PHP 300 (one way)
Travel Tax: PHP 1,600 (more or less)
Airport tax (?): PHP 300+

Cash on hand: USD 200 (about 10k in pesos)

I'll update this once I have accurate info. I know I'm totally mixing my currencies but I can't be bothered to convert.

Actually, I think Cameron is much closer to Ipoh. It's in the area before the "N" in "National". And you forgot to circle Penang!

Note the location of Selangor on the map. Hehe.

Yes I saw it just now! Hahaha I'll do that later tonight...and promptly forget to pack my underwear. Or my phone charger. I'm so sure of it.

Why is Selangor so far away? Isn't it supposed to be close to main KL?
