From KL Which exit toll to Penang?
PLUS highway? Or the Rawang Toll there?

is the one in Penang Plaza at the junction of Jarut Road & Burmah Rd, number 126 Jalan Burmah. Near famous Ice Kacang New World Park. After renovation, it has become worse, I CANT buy my favorite fresh Aussie beef from there anymore! Their beef/Lamb counter disappear! Been buying from there since 1990's.


Should be there but these days, the Municipal council would like to move the hawkers to a cleaner and safer environment, that is the Tanjong Tokong Bus Station.

Which part of KL are you from or wish to start?

1) the Environment around Parkroyal
2) the Staff there (more chinese? indian or malay?)
3) the Boss (nice or not)
4) is it convenience to go to the town?

might go there for training >.<
need your help here..

thanks in advance !

1. Environment is great but I stay there as a guest not as a worker!
2. Staff friendly to customer
3. Never meet the boss
4. Nope

oOOHH thanks for your reply! ><
hmm. sorry i have questions again..

the staff there most of them are MALAY ? or ?
not to be racist here.. coz i have a friend would tagged along with me go for internship..
so malay languages will be a problem for her as she is from china..

These days, at that level staff, there are hardly any Local Chinese in service industries. Dunno about your friend's language problem but she sure will be popular.

I will be riding a bike so yeah.
But i scared jam coz my bike is quite bulky.
Fun? As in outdoor fun activities?
Like parks , places we can visit and remember.
Those kind of fun.
Do you stay at Penang?
Care to be our tour guide?
Haha

Along the Batu Ferringhi beach there are many activities for the outdoor type but do check the price and safety 1st before confirming!

I like the The Penang National Park, located 3km past Batu Ferringhi at the far end of Teluk Bahang fishing village

It would also be awesome to go biking round the island, do stop at the tourist stops at the back of the island and scenic spots.
