Just to make sure if everyone going to bangkok...

If most of us are going to bangkok, then I suggest everyone to go for easier planning purposes... But still it depends on personal financial issue & interest... For those who are not going to Bangkok, what is the plan? (accommodation, bla bla bla) just feel like hearing any other plan for those who are not going to bangkok :p

By the way, other than the plane ticket, how much should we prepare for the hostel at Bangkok?

I need we need roughly around rm100-rm150 for 3 nights at bangkok. Soi 1 Guest House that we stayed last time,the price per person per night goes up to RM37 already.
Below are some of the choices:
Hostel Thailand

Price : RM 100 for 3 nights of stay

Rambuttri Village Inn
95 Soi Rambuttri
Chakkra Phong Road, Phra Nakorn, Banglampoo (Khao San Road)

right next to Khao San Road. Facilities including a first-rate restaurant, shopping plaza, travel agency, pharmacy, laundry, and safe deposit box and swimming pool.

Im ok with the price, hehe... just want to plan ahead, if bring not enough money like last time then sien jo...
how about the hostel fee/hotel fee for staying at phuket? :p

[heliosL]

OK. Another thing is the travel insurance, we actually did buy the insurance from AirAsia as well, but that's only for on flight only, for fully covered for the 8 days we are on trip, it is actually Rm45 per person + RM10 stamp duty fee, so total is RM460. And this year the coverage increased to RM200,000.
So, anyone who wish to buy, I will let you know when to send the details to my email, and I shall collect the money from the one who collect money for this flight fee.
Cheers.

So ma guai fan now. I think we need to have conference or sit down to discuss about it. Too much thing to plan.

[Cliff L]

why not we just sit down together and talk then?...Prepare everything, sit down and talk about it...

[See Zi Ping]

good idea...when? :p

[heliosL]

I would suggest next monday night, a dinner gathering for all of us together, to sit down and talk about it.

Location I think is most probably in Puchong, since most of us staying in Puchong, any nice place that good for dinner? This I leave to you all to decide.

Time I would suggest around 7.30pm.

Anyone who can't make it?

Think it is quite impossible for everyone to gather at one time, so just think as at least most of those who are going for this trip, and we can decide what to do next. Those who can't maybe can just send a representative lo. This is what I discussed with JS just now, since he said he might not able to join for some night gathering if he work night shift.

Is that OK for everyone?
