hi there.. i wanna ask.. is there a discount for a student to do a passport? my fren said 50% off.. true or not?? plz tell me
there is a discount for students, but you must prove that you are going overseas for furthering studies, therefore you'll need a letter from your universities stating that you are a student there, taking what degree etc etc. Personally, i didn't really bother to care about the discount as getting the letters from the college would take weeks, and by the time i waited for it, might as well just pay and get it done.

Renew passport only took 2 hours, so you can do it in 1 day.
Renew passport in a day only available at selected branches, not applicable to all branches. About Pusat Bandar Damansara, i have quite lost faith in them as their systems are usually down on Mondays, and the day i went there to do my passport, the whole immigration system was down, and as usual they were promising expediate repairs and that passport processing will resume soon. what a blatant lie, because later they had to shoot themselves in the leg when they announced that the whole system there was down.
Another alternative would be the Subang immigration office. If you'd get there early before 8 (e.g.730) u'd be in about a line of 10 ppl there, and if you want faster, prepare all the documents beforehand (e.g. passport photo, forms etc). most of the people who go there early, somehow is lacking either in picture or incomplete form, and so, your queue is being reduced from less than 10 ppl.
