Since many people travel to Malaysia for business or pleasure, AND since I came across this information on the other forum that I help run, here is a link for CAR folks.

I am quoting the most important part below, but there is more information in that thread including names of personnel.

Let me see if I can gleam out some first hand plane/heli shop information too.
Had gone to Malaysia some time back. The stuffs are so cheap you cannot imagine :D
Main thing works their is bargain. They come from 10k to 1k after 3 or 4 retries :giggle:
Not sure online buying would fetch a good deal compared to buying it personally. If we know someone who go their frequently it will be too good
One shopping complex was Bukit Bintang, could spend a week shopping there. there were so many hobbyshops, but most of them were for Helis.
I bargained a 1M wingspan cessna, for 2.5k (rtf) :giggle: Dint have luggage space :banghead:
Please suggest places and items to buy in KL.
