i assume he asked for your recommendation because he liked your canon powershot A400? then u should recommend him something along the lines like A460 or A550. if he just wants a simple camera both these cameras will do. unless he's really interested then it will be another matter.

u wont get monster 3inch screen with that budget.
for around RM 400 u are basically limited to your choices
add maybe an extra 100-200 then u might consider other choices
i really recommend canon a550. great camera with great pics and video mode. might stretch ur budget to rm 550...but worth it
it has a 2 inch screen. or if really limited to that price, get the A460 which is around rm499. it has 5mp and also a 2inch screen
hope that helps!
