which uni and what course? maybe we all can meet up in UK?

Sorry. I've just graduated in July. Back for good. All the best in UK! =)

hi guys,
can someone tell me the cost of living when study in UK?
my uni offer a semester aboard, and i thinking to apply. can anyone tell me the daily expenses? food, rental, transport?

thanks!

Rental from 300 plus pounds on average per month. If you cook, not much difference from what you are in KL. Get accommodation nearer to Uni and walk.

surely this depends on WHERE?.....

300 quid is lots in some places, and hardly half the rent in others....

I rented a room in a house for around 280 pounds per month. It was in Bristol, around 10 mins drive away from city centre.

been in Warwick for 2 days already. Damn this place looks so beautiful!!

I got homesick now!

When did you start studying in UK?
I believe most students studying abroad will have that too, you're not alone.

But what I can say is, unless you're planning to find a job over there, or else you most likely won't have the opportunity to live there again like you're doing now. So make use of the opportunity you have now, and experience the weather, food, culture over there. Go travel around during semester breaks. Mix up with M'sian students once in a while.

else you most likely won't have the opportunity to live there again like you're doing now. So make use of the opportunity you have now, and experience the weather, food, culture over there.

This sentence!

Thank you

hey guys, just wanna ask, which bank is suitable for malayisan student?

dunno, but I use Lloyds.

The one closest to your home or uni....

hmm, thanks mate. btw, is there any bank here partner with banks in malaysia? which can make transfer money with lower commission fees (exclude the exchange rate) ?

hsbc have branches in both countries, but they are still different banks, and the usual charges apply....

it doesn't matter what bank....just use tt/banker's draft for fast/normal funds transfer....drafts you need to send over physically, easily done with registered mail, takes about a week....only cost rm5, and no charge on banking in...

Hi guys can i put food like milo, maggie mee, biscuits in my check in luggage? will it be confiscated? are stuffs like that restricted?

It’s illegal to bring the following foodstuffs into the UK from outside the EU, even if they are for your personal use:

- Meat
- Meat products
- Milk and dairy products
- Potatoes

From non-EU countries the following items are restricted:

- fruit and vegetables - no more than 2kg total weight combined per person
- fish, bivalves (dead) and fish/fishery products - no more than 20kg total weight

Milo and biscuits are probably classified under Milk and Dairy products. If you’re unsure whether you have illegal food products on entering the UK, declare it to Customs. If your food is deemed to be illegal, Customs will take it from you, but you won’t have committed an offence.

milo, maggi mee are fine...processed food, not a problem...

they are usually very lax about this, in contrast to australia...you walk through the red channel to declare, and often there are nobody there, and you just walk through.....especially if you are on the overnight flight arriving at 5am...

Thanks for the explanation with clarity how if i just act and do nothing about it? will my check-in luggage be checked?
