throwback 2015 1 day trip to Betong

Been there recently...the hotel I was at still accepts MYR though the rate more favorable to them at the moment. SIM card shops and restaurants also accepts MYR. Most importantly, clubs also accepts MYR for drinks and tips for ladies 

up. thinking of going to betong next. hatyai is too crowded haha

i just went there last saturday come back on sunday , my review is unless u like those nature waterfall stuff you will be bored to death .. theres not much of shopping for you to look , only few pubs or clubs . no shopping malls and even night market are very kesian with few stalls only . But theres this kesong warehouse where u can sapu thai snacks and noodle if you want . But clearing custom and immigration very siok la ...damn fast LOL

Hi All,

google takes u 5secs

Poster above already clarified the process but do remember to stop at the immigration post. When I first drove through Betong I just drove right pass the checkpoint and no one stopped us either which made us wonder of the actual post was further in. Only after driving a few hundred meters in we decided to turn back to register our vehicle :lol2:

Security here seems to be rather lax but there was a military checkpoint later on who really checked our vehicle grant and permit etc. so make sure this is done before you go in. Kena arrest with military sure gg.

Thanks.
I read from google that someone mentioned that need to go to police station to stamp the letter first.
Is that necessary?
If yes, can I stamp it earlier in KL to save my traveling time?

Police stamp? Whatever for? If you are going on a holiday trip I don't think you need any. Company vehicle you will need authorization letter from the company as far as I know.

From this:

Strange, never encountered such an incident when we went through. Both my letter and vehicle grant were original, not copies. Perhaps this was the difference?

If it is going to save you some time, then drop by the station to get this done rather than wasting your time at customs later.

Once you are in, do drop by Merlin hotel for a great time
