Yes can-lah.. I'm also using one mah bcos my wife is a housewife & no income. But you need a seperate letter written by either you or your company that you or your company will guranttee all her expenses and also any incidental cost herewith will be by you or your company. Well, I wrote that letter myself...a simple one para letter haha..like dis:

" I guranttee all expenses and incidental cost incurred by so & so bearing passport no XXXXXX will be borne by me . Thank You"

Wow, Bank Negara 11am Yen dropped further to 3.6825

Likedat Money changer rate probably ~ 3.74-3.78 liao

Got the exact shooting location of the street Jacky Chan's Shinjuku Incident" or something haha.. Wanna visit his HQ ...But sked those yakusa there wor

High chances of rejection for sure. sumore without any support income.

You need somewan to pump in cash temporary..let say additional RM4K to ensure high chances. Also a guranttee letter from your parent or even parent's company that all cost of your travel wil be borned by your parent or the company/ college you study.

Otherwise..just pray hard lor

Yes for sure to get high chances. Your uni needs to confirm you and the best ask them to include that they will supoort your cost haha..well if they willing. Otherwise, you need your parent guranttee letter that all yur incidental cost will be guranteed by them

If you're serius and willing to pay atleast 20% interest per day ..Self poclaimed Ah Long here

Horrible Money Changers in whole Klang Valley- Right now lotsa them no more Yen stock! Reason given high demand. The only thing I can think-They are taking advantage of low Yen and keep it for future gain!!

After checking using that tool, Now I'm getting worry bcos from Asakusa stn to Nikko, The train only available @12:30pm...Darn no early train to Nikko! I think 1/2 day not enough to Nikko

I found shorter and easier way mah..just direct using Tobu line from Asakusa stn wor..

You see..from this guide only 1 blue line direct from Asakusa.. I'm thinking of grabbing the Tobu day pass too at 3500yen..unlimited usage + entrance & bus fare in Nikko wor.. http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e3805.html

If using your suggestion need to switch another train wor??

Haha..Abit only..Here & there.. still looking for cheapest way to goto Hakone..not from Shinjuku but from the stn near my hotel i.e Ningyucho. Current route that I can think off is Ningyucho>>Shimbashiand switch to JR line to Odawara >>Hakonezan line...but abit pricey lor..1way already 2800yen!

Otherwise..probably just grab the Hakone free pass via Odawara stn? (Odakyu line??)..Only 3900yen return + unlimited ride wor..
http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2358_008.html

ANyway.. Almost certain Nikko & Hakone will be my confirmed itineraries dy..That's 2 full days.. The otehr 3 more days..most probably 1 day visisting Ropponggi >>Shibuya>>Shinjuku +Meiji park/temple

1 day - Northern region - Akibahara-Akasuka & Ueno

& last day..Southern region...Kawasaki - Fames "Manhood fertility temple" hehe..& probably that Tsukiji fish market if can enter?? I heard limited to 120ppl only darn...

Hmmnn Bro Naim you also recommend that route kah..haha..Still considering..The reason why I'm considering this Tobu line from Asakusa is bcos direct train + having free day pass for 3600yen/pax return Worth it? Or the route you suggest much cheaper?

http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2358_002.html

OK- Good idea also..Just found the trf stn near my hotel to Shinjuku.. No need to go South and North again to Shinjuku..can cross over direct from Higashi Nihonbashi stn which is also ~ 200M North of My hotell ..But the free pass from Shijuku abit expensive wor..5000yen

OK noted.. likedat the free pass useless liao..just sked the cable car & bus ride there might be more haha.. BTW I checked the rate from Shinjuku to Hakoneyumoto:
http://world.jorudan.co.jp/norikae/cgi-bin/engkeyin.cgi

It's 1150yen wor? Am I on the correct stn haha

BTW, just back from MV- The money changer inside NZ magazine store still having lotsa yen.. Changed 86,000 yen at 37.40 or RM3,216. Hopefully enough for my 7D5N trip nxt week..Pls tell me it's enough... .. the MV money changer in Ctr court wth long que selling at 37.50. Market BNM rate = 37.16 at 5pm..Expecting higher 2moro

850yen till Odawar nia wor? Thereafter from Odawara to Hakoneyumoto another 300 yen?? All u mean from Odawara, take local bus?

BTW, Just bought my 2 days Tobu - Special World Heritage return day pass

3600y inc of bus ride & entrance fee & disount vouchers. to the Temple and also as far as Kinagawa.. Most probably will go both if having more time or continue Kinagawa the nxt day since it's 2 days pass haha.

This part of travel all paid & taken care off.. more cash to spend in Tokyo..hehe

Bought it from here:

Otherwise, goto pg 1. There is a link to Japan Rail Pass..For those wanna go far-far and willing to spend> RM1K/7days on Sinkansen ride

Wow.. Very rich guy..1mil Yen = RM38,000 liao wor
Imagine I gonna bring in 86,000yen or ~ RM3216 at 37.40 rate haha

BTW, Yen rising fast Today!! Already rising to 37.63 from Yesterday 37.21 as per BNM http://www.bnm.gov.my/statistics/exchangerates.php
I think I'm reaaly lucky liao having changed earlier

Yes. For sure cheaper than buying individual ticket lor but still expensive for Family travelled together and only having 5 nites there. I also originally planned to Osaka/Kyoto from Tokyo but after thinking twice that it will cost me another RM3300 for the pass for 3 ..I decided to do Osaka in future once I can get another cheap AAX ticket for ~ RM500/pax haha ..For me, sinkansen is not really something amazing having similar experience traveling at 295km/hr in China for a fraction haha

Walao eh....Imagine every trip there u spend RM20K min...chialak liao if for me.. Dun kirim me expensive stuff nxt week if you dun gip me advances hor..and my backpack limit only 15KG hor..haha

Not to worry I only going to bring in 86,000yen for 7D5N there nxt week and for 3 haha.. If I can make it below 60K yen or below RM2300.. It will be my another budget achievement haha
