ooo, im from Kuching actually, but working in Miri full time. Generally i found Miri courier staff kinda friendly and helpful, be it SkyNet, PosLaju, Pusat Mel, etc. But about the Customs, i think maybe depends on the officers there; probably i got lucky and have the friendly one layan me, haha.

im not sure if this is true, but my parcel from Hong Kong kena tahan even though the declare value is less than rm400 (i asked angolz.com to reduce it)... could it be that EMS parcel from certain countries are 'tahan'ed automatically? My parcel from Japan never kena tahan.
