why u apologize?

its good to discuss about money transfer.
but,the cheapest way for me is westernunion online.if use agent,more expensive.
scared if i offended you
i think cheapest way is make bankers draft or travellers cheque which cost RM8.00-RM10.00 then use recorded delivery or poslaju send.
The receiver should only wait less than 4 days and the receiver bank didn't charge anything for it at least it happens in UK or HK.
Just postage + rm8.00-rm10.00 bankers draft

quite cheap.

means TT charges both side??
yes, of course. Both of the bank also want to earn money too.
Try to ask your bank if they have connections with the australian bank that your friend using.
If no connection, they need to go thru to the other australia local bank first before going to your friend bank and it could be a little more expensive because the first bank want money too.
Just like if i send from HSBC UK to CIMB malaysia, but the UK bank got no connection with CIMB, they need to go thru public bank.
That means the receiver need to pay public bank for the service charges beside CIMB too.
