I was told by a customs officer that hp do need to get approval from sirim but it all base on their so call budi bicara.  If you're lucky to get a nice custom officer he could let go without needing to go through sirim.  Just say is for your own personal use and good communication skill is helpful when dealing with them customs ppl  laugh.gif
