Cuti-cuti Malaysia is not affordable at all and so inconvenient.

If you want to travel from KL to Terengganu for the beaches, be prepared to suffer the insane traffic jam. Another area that Malaysia is lacking is places of interest (historical, scenic, entertainment etc...), if you are in KL, there are a lot of shopping malls. It would be good had they retained Pudu Jail or preserved historical buildings and turned them into museums. Unfortunately, we have some clowns stating that it reminded them of "colonial era" torture and abuse, which resulted in such buildings being torn down.

Travelling to East Malaysia is prohibitively expensive, especially during school holidays.

In the end, it's better to travel abroad or stay at home and save money. There's no compelling reason to hang around in Malaysia.
