QUOTE(RegentCid @ Nov 5 2015, 12:00 PM) Officially yes. Exchanging Yen at Japan are much better than exchange at Malaysia. But.......there is a risk. Those exchanger they have quota. Example one day they only accept Rm10000 only and that day you very unlucky....quota already reach 8000. Means you only can exchange rm 2000only. Willing to take risks? No risk no gain bro RC, your opinion in blue>> are the money changers in Narita airport included or are you referring to one specific outlet in KIX??

QUOTE(RegentCid @ Nov 5 2015, 12:27 PM) You dont get my meaning. Buying Rate are Shop buying the Yen from your hand. Every 1000 yen on your hand ...the shop just give you back Rm23. Selling Rate are shop selling you Every 1000yen with Rm33 cost. Dont get confuse. Btw, refer to previous Page. There is a risk. Willing to take then you can exchange yen at Japan. Yes. Not only Japan....the whole world are same. The currency with no quota are USD only because world reconize. How about haneda airport? Is the rate same with Kansai airport?

But not Zauo. You have to fish your own. Base on what fish you get only got menu. Time spend on this restraurant are extremly long. If you plan shopping after this dinner, no way. I go at 8pm finised at 12pm. Food variaty not much, mostly serving way are Sashimi. I planning to put into tips of months.........soon. This post has been edited by RegentCid: Nov 5 2015, 06:04 PM

Hello everyone. Planning japan trip now. Osaka + tokyo.
Which transport combo is more worth it?
KL>Tokyo>Osaka>KL KL>Tokyo>Osaka>Tokyo>KL
From my research, the JR 7day pass is quite value for money if i take from tokyo to osaka and use there for travelling around. The only question is if sitting shinkansen for so many hours to osaka is viable. If too crowded maybe have to reconsider..
